      Pouring water from one container to another is an attribute of Temperance, a major arcana tarot card. Edit: And, of course, the Tarot depiction comes from the virtue itself. The card represents balance first and foremost, so Anakin being supposed to bring balance to the force immediately springs to mind.

      I’m sure that if I wasn’t as tired as I am right now, I could come up with a plausible theory for him standing in the sea. Beach/sand connection maybe? I’ll leave that to someone else.

      But I do believe you can eke out some sense out of this picture if you really try.

        Anakin HATES sand.

      Pretty sure I had that demotivational poster saved on an old laptop. Good memories.

          Back when we called them “demotivationals” instead of “memes”

      Yes it does. He is clearly trying to filter the saltwater with the Brita filter to try to make it potable so he can drink it for later.

        What’s going on later that requires some water to be drank?

          Go ahead - YOU try going around in that very black suit under a hot sun without drinking any water.

        Exactly! Except… shouldn’t it go the other way for that!?!

          Once it’s been filtered I guess he’d pour it back into the other container to give it a second pass? Shit, I dunno.

            To be fair, I didn’t say that it would work, I just said that is what Darth Vader was trying to do in his own head.

              Indeed, hisssss helmet filtration device would also have worked to purify the water…
