vine compilation of sarek's awful life decisions

"A beginning is a very delicate time." ~~~

Irulan shows up in David Lynch's dune for approximately five seconds, but I dig her. Also I get a kick out of her opening narration... silly goose, forgetting to tell us that spice exists on only one planet in the entire Universe. But she fades back into reality to tell us, so it's all good.
