Pandavas are still alive. D'oh! Duryodhana got some anger issues. Like, let it go man. Dhritarashtra seems more like he's got a cool head on his shoulders. Seems he should be able to keep his sons in line.
Oh, thank you, finally somebody seems to realize that sharing a wife among five brothers could be an issue. Didn't really fix anything though. I guess it makes sense that each brother gets a year with her... still pretty weird though. And then that comes back and bites Arjuna on the butt. Can't say I didn't warn you.
More political stuff... more family problems... lots of grudge holders here. I mean, how long has it been at this point? Sheesh.
Wow. That game of dice though... moral of the story: gambling is bad kids. Don't gamble. And certainly don't gamble away all of your possessions and your kingdom and yourself and your brothers and your wife. That's some heavy stuff.
As if Draupadi didn't already have enough terrible stuff happen to her, now she's being gambled away. Just tossed around like property. And she's really friggin smart too - like, that argument that Yudhishthira had already lost his own freedom, so how could he have authority to gamble her away - I mean, that seems like it would hold up to me. And then she was devout enough for the miracle with the saris to protect her dignity. And then, she frikkin saves everyone else and their stuff with her three wishes. I mean, come on - she's basically the only productive member of this ill fated gambling party, and what thanks does she get? Man.
Oh, and then Y decides, after all that, that it's a good idea to go gamble again. What an idiot.
Exiled in the wilderness again. Apparently that's where the heroes go. And why is it always twelve years? Hmm.
