Star Wars: Forces of Destiny - Sands of Jakku

The first of the Star Wars: Forces of Destiny shorts takes place during The Force Awakens after Rey (Daisy Ridley) meets BB-8. Returning home, the pair run into a nightwachter worm who eats leftover technology and garbage and takes a keen interest in the droid. Rey’s quick thinking, and yet undiscovered Force-sensitivity and reflexes, saves the droid, but she also feeds the beast with some substitute garbage earning herself a friend which will play into the show’s second short.

Young Woman and the Sea

Based on the true story of the first woman to swim the English Channel, Daisy Ridley stars as Gertrude “Trudy” Ederle. After filling in a little of her early life (including surviving the Measles as a child to the utters surprise of everyone), the film moves forward with the young Trudy’s (Olive Abercrombie) fascination with swimming following her sister Meg (Lilly Aspell and Tilda Cobham-Hervey) into lessons and eventual competitions proving herself the best female swimmer England had to offer. This will lead to the Olympics and eventually the English Channel as new challenges to overcome.

Wizards of Waverly Place - First Kiss

Wayback Wednesday takes us back to a family of wizards living in Waverly Place. Lucy Hale guest-stars in “First Kiss” as Justin‘s (David Henrie) new girlfriend Miranda who he’s too shy to kiss. As with the first episode of the series, as spell used unwisely will play into the proceedings when Alex (Selena Gomez) keeps turning back time to give her brother the opportunity to get the kiss right. Sitcom shenanigans are everywhere in the various ways the kiss goes wrong and in the episode’s B-plot which involves Max‘s (Jake T. Austin) crazy sandwich creation catching on with a rep for the NY Mets only to have the rebooted time ruin any chance of it becoming the official sandwich for the baseball team.
