![]() Pershing to ensure the New Republic doesn’t learn of their cloning activities. ![]() The Remnants of the Empire can and will use agents to protect against threats. So it begs the question, who are the new central villains, and what’s the main conflict for the next five chapters? The answers may be hidden in Chapter 19. Meanwhile, back on Coruscant, the hot gossip is that Moff Gideon had his brain fried by the Mind Flayer. The Mandalorian has wrapped up Din’s redemption quest. Were the Remnants tipped off, and if so, by who ? Imperial Operation: Mandalorian Exileīo-Katan wields the Darksaber back on Mandalore. But as soon as he and Bo leave the planet, a massive force awaits them. This somber scene comes with a question, who attacked them, and how did they know where to find them? Few in the galaxy knew of Mando’s quest to Mandalore. Following a heart-thumping dogfight, Bo Katan watches in horror as Remnant bombers destroy her castle. Later In Chapter 19, When Bo-Katan Kryze (Katee Sackhoff) and Din Djarin leave Mandalore, they’re attacked by a squadron of Tie Interceptors. Not only do the mines remain passable, but they are guarded by a creature that appears to have fed on any Mandalorians who ventured back home, never to return to share the secret. The Armorer’s tales of a cursed and poisoned planet begin to fall apart. The surface is destroyed, but the air is clean and the Living Waters remain. In The Mandalorian Chapter 18, we learn that the rumors of Mandalore’s inhospitality have been exaggerated. ![]() This exchange begs the question: Why is the Armorer trying to convince Din not to go to Mandalore? A curious coincidence on Mandaloreĭin and Bo are ambushed on their way back from Mandalore. Eventually, she gives a patronizing “This is the Way,” and he leaves. Even after he offers a Mandalorian inscription as proof that someone has survived a trip to the surface, she actively dissuades him from going to the planet. However, she’s deadset that Din’s redemption is impossible due to Mandalore’s destruction and subsequent toxicity. After saving the Children of the Watch from the giant croc-a-gater, Mando visits the Armorer to inform her that he is leaving for the planet Mandalore to redeem himself. In hindsight, a moment in The Mandalorian’s Season 3’s premiere doesn’t sit well with me. The hyper-religious leader of the Children of the Watch has guided our hero throughout the series, but to what end? Is the Armorer an ally or could there be a sinister side to Din’s mentor? The Armorer’s identity is one of the series’ longest-running and most intriguing questions.
