Summary
Grogu trains and a giant bird attacks.
I don’t know what it was about this episode but something just felt off with it for me. I think after the first two episodes of the new season were so good the third and now this one have just failed to get me to the same level. I think what bothered me about this episode was that it felt like filler, the story didn’t advance much, beyond the one area that I will get to, and the giant bird rescue felt very needless and forced in to pad for time.
However, that said I did really quite enjoy learning Grogu’s back story and getting to see more of what went down when the Jedi temple fell. Jedi Master Kelleran Beq, played by Ahmed Best was a cool addition and I will be interested to see where his and Grogu’s story goes. I hope the show doesn’t just kill him off to give Grogu some more trauma to deal with.
I also thought that once again Katee Sackoff’s Bo-Katan was a scene stealer. The final scene at the end of the episode where she is talking about the mythical Mandalorian beast was super interesting and it will be fascinating to see if she tries to capture it later in the season.
Overall, a good episode if somewhat lacking.
4/5
