This is not about Jess. So many reactors are too stupid (or too preoccupied with trying to mock the show) to recognize that the Sith unmasking wasn't meant to be the shocking moment. They make a big deal of "figuring it out" when it was never a mystery. Qimir even questions why Mae didn't know. The deaths of Jecki & Yord were the big surprises.
There had not been a Sith seen in over a thousand years this was said in episode 1 so having a Sith seen in this show 80 years before the event and episode 1 completely ruined the entire series as well as the force being the father of two children before Anakin❤ Imagine 80 years before the birth of Jesus God decided to just father to random children that were never spoken about ever again
@@SamGrant-jm6mz Your reason for the show being ruined is based on what the council knew. Right now, 2 characters alive heard the word Sith. Sol & Mae. If neither reports it before dying or chooses to hide it, then Ep 1 is still true. From a certain point of view.
His armor was made from Cortosis. which can short circuit ligtsabers. It can also redirect the heat of explosions. It appeared in the comics during the clone wars and later in the comics in Dr aphra.
Beskar is metal that can be shaped, formed, via metallurgyetc. while Cortosis is a weave, a mesh, just like Kevlar technology invented by chemist Stephanie Kwolek over at DuPont. Kevlar is a material used in protective vests as well as in boats, airplanes, ropes, cables, and much more-in total about 200+ applications.
This reaction was exactly how my daughter and I were, screaming, gasping, sad to see Jecki die. Yord and Osha returning didnt really save Sol, but rather saved him from falling to the dark side
Jecki has SERIOUSLY impressed me as a Jedi. I mean this-she’s proven herself to be Ahsoka Tano-Barriss Offee-level skilled at padawan age. Absolutely insane. I’m so frustrated that she died but she’s the standout for me in this. I also hate that the Kel Dor Jedi Ithia Paan died early on. I was rooting for him in Plo Koon’s honor 😭 and as for Yord, man I hate that he died too. So unexpected and ruthless of a death. I’m glad Sol made it, but wow I was expecting Jecki and Yord to survive more than Sol, so the writers did good there in surprising us. Ugh I’m so shook by this episode.
She didn't prove herself to be on the level of Ahsoka or on the level of anyone who has combat training in the field facing death combat training it's just piss poor writing that she is somehow better than her master
@@SamGrant-jm6mz They make it obvious in the show that Jecki is a studious student who has been trained extremely well by Sol. And just because she can hold her own for a bit against the Sith guy doesn’t mean anything-he wasn’t THAT old after all so he may not even have that much experience. Since when did Jecki do better than her master? She did amazingly well for a padawan, but Sol was the one who beat him hand to hand and kept tossing him around even when he kept causing his saber to short out. Why are you even here on a reaction channel for it if you hate the show and claim it’s piss poor writing?
This episode was insane! So brutal! I wasn’t expectijg Yord and Jeckie to die, but I have to respect Disney for making the choice to kill off important charaxters. I’m rather nervous for the mext few episodes. I wonder if Basal knows what’s up? I bet he does. Sol defijitely has darkness in him and Osha saved him. I wonder if maybe he was a dark side user before? Or another under cover dark side user? I doubt it. But he’s most definitely hiding something. Watch him be the main culprit behind the Brendock business. I’d be so sad. I also agree that Jeckie was a freaking bad ass! She was very impressive. And no one was surprised by QuiMir being the sith. Though I hope we see more of him. He’s very impressive. I wonder if Osha will become his new acolyte? Definitely possible. His dialogue with Sol was so good. I bet we’re going to get more answers next episode.
I just remembered and noticed, that Osha has that tattoo Sol knows about but Mae doesn't. Might come into play later as the thing which reveals her identity.
Mae also has that spiral thing on her forehead which I still suspect holds the key to the Sith learning how to use the midi-chlorians to create... life.
So, I want to go on record with my theory. The Sith lord of this time period is a guy named Darth Tenebrous. He is interested in the art of manipulating life through the use of the Force. He finds a coven of witches who have a mastered at least part of this skill, so he goes to learn from them (he's actually present in the background of the flashback scene when Mae and Osha are doing their ascension ceremony, but then peaces out when the Jedi show up.) The Jedi realize this or something like it, so they kill everyone in the coven. They do this to prevent the Sith from learning forbidden knowledge from them. Nonetheless, Tenebrous now has some basic information to start, but still doesn't know how to do it, thus he spends the rest of his life trying to unlock the secret. He has two apprentices, an official Sith apprentice named Darth Plagueis, and an illegitimate apprentice named Darth Venamis, although technically Venamis isn't a "Darth," nor a true Sith, since the Rule of Two says there can only be one master and one apprentice. Ultimately, Tenebrous discovers Venamis betraying him and imprisons him in his lab where he uses him in his experiments, literally torturing him to death for decades and reviving him using the techniques he's learning. His apprentice Darth Plagueis eventually kills Tenebrous and takes his own apprentice, Darth Sidious. Together they continue the experimentation, accidentally creating Anakin Skywalker. However, they think all their experiments have failed (Anakin is born on the other side of the galaxy and they are unaware of it until Sidious encounters him in "The Phantom Menace.") Due to their failures, Sidious becomes impatient and kills Plagueis in his sleep, becoming the master, and eventually taking Darth Maul as his apprentice. This is the point at which the prequels begin. Here is the punchline to all of this: Qimir is Darth Venamis and we're seeing the story of his betrayal of his master, Darth Tenebrous. He wants an acolyte to increase his strength in order to kill Tenebrous and replace him.
back in the year 2000 i received from my yahoo email a message purported to be an untitled star wars script. that yahoo email message was a chain mail (back when both useful and garbage chain mails littered our inboxes) and the email message indicated that that script was first submitted to GLucas a year, 1999, and then later rejected by GLucas in 2000. It was a long email message retelling the story, the script itself, and how and why GLucas rejected the script. it was a long email but I can still remember parts of it. Even the names Indara, Sol, Jecky, Tasi, Yord, Vernestra, and the one Sith Lord called "NO NAME"... the memory of that email came to me so fast back when the Acolyte episode 1 story came out June 4th. I am happy that that script was finally picked up again
I'm still not convinced Qimir is a Sith. He says the Jedi MIGHT call him a Sith. However, there are visual clues and even audio clues that indicate he is something else. He is a Knight of Ren. His design is very reminiscent of Ren, the leader of the Knights of Ren before Kylo Ren replaced him. You can also hear an audio beat of Kylo Ren's theme when he heals Osha. The Knights of Ren existed for centuries, long before this show.
I think he's more of an Asajj Ventress/Darth Maul of this era. Darth Tenebrous is the Sith Master at this time, with Darth Plagueis being his Sith Apprentice. Qimir is likely one of Darth Plagueis' personal Sith Assassins (as Maul, then Ventress were to Dooku under Sidious). Also note that Qimir's helmet somewhat resembles a Bith (the species that Darth Tenebrous was). Though, that could be a coincidence, given the flared bottom resembles those worn by the Knights of Ren. Also what you said, a tiny bit of Kylo Ren's theme played for Qimir.
then not even Palpatine has ever defined himself as a sith in all the films, perhaps he only admits it with Anakin in episode 3 but Anakin had to become his apprentice
He used his helmet to shorten out the Jedi light sabers to temporarily take the pressure off of him battling multiple Jedi . He separated sol from Jackie and caused Jackie to overreact with anger. He also like lord said basically don’t fight by the rules which means he fights dirty using a hidden weapon to surprise and kill Jackie , he reminds me of general grievous , in his dirty way of battling
That helmet and arm armor is made from Cordosis metal it was in Star Wars Legends and in Star Wars Canon in Thrawn first book Where he was with Anakin on mision during clone wars. And in Vader comic during Imperium.
*Theory:* Qimir was having Mae kill the 4 Jedi, maybe, because they saw his face while he (and others?) went on a killing spree at the coven. It could be that HE (and others?) started that fire, and clouded the minds of the survivors. I think he went to the coven for an acolyte of his own (Mae), and things went sideways. *There's just something about him saying "I want a pupil...an acolyte...they see my face, they all die". That might not even be his own face.*
Part of me thinks Sol might know that Mae has swapped places with Osha because when he asked where "she" is and Mae asked who he was talking about, he said, "your sister", not Mae.
1:20 The helmet is made from Cortosis, a metal as rare and lightsaber-resistant as Beskar/Mandalorian Iron (but with the added property of disrupting energy it comes into contact with, such as a lightsaber blade). We've seen it in canon once before. Some Jedi tried luring Darth Vader into a trap and a Jedi who thought she was clever shorted Vader's lightsaber with a cortosis sword. Vader subsequently grabbed her neck and broke it.
Cortosis helmet and vambrace. And some people had the gall tho say the writters aren't fans. Love the sheer brutality of those lightsaber fights. Sol being the only one to survive the fight and even defeating Qmir was a surprise. Sure was not expecting Jecki and Yord to die. Also the big reveal will be what happened 16 years prior to current events in Brendok. Qmir even mocks Mae for not having realized it was him. He was dropping hints left and right in episode 2 and 4.
@sesskasays there’s a theory on episode 3 during the ceremony behind the mother witches there is a mysterious sith figure in black robes by himself not showing his face at all could be pleagus or his master or smilo ren
I’m at the point now that I do not think Ep 5 happened they way we saw it as viewers. Both Mae and Osha head planted into that red dust. My money is on the whole episode being one or both of their fever dreams. Remember when Mai got to Kelnacca bachelor pad the opossum dude was just standing there in a daze. I can almost imagine that in reality everyone in the episode is just standing in the red powder dazed. Kelnacca is the big bad and he red-powered the witches too.
One of your best reactions yet my dear! Every movement, every comment you made and of course your beautiful laugh and humorous vibe, keep it light and fun as we enjoy 2gether ! #LoudandProud #Closedmouthdontgetfed ❤😂
I mean he's not really a Sith though, he's more like Maul was after being abandoned by Palpatine or even Kylo Ren since he wasn't Sith either. He's kind of seems like he knows of the Sith and is emulating one but doesn't follow anything that seems Sith-like. He even says he's nothing. He doesn't even claim to be Sith, he just says, by the Jedi's views, they might see him as one. I still wonder if even he is a fake-out.
last episode osha is lagging behing. Shouts sol. All the jedis run back to see the flying creature get killed by the lightsaber. Jord says. It went straight for the lightsaber. Sol replies. They are attracted to light. Same again last episode mae says it don’t matter anymore. That she is going to hand herself in to the Jedi and inform them of what we know. Now this episode. Jord forgot about the flying things attracted to light. And mae forgot she was going to hand her self in.
To be fair, Yord had a potential Sith Lord in his face a minute ago so him being forgetful of a few bugs is understandable. Mae was going to surrender yes , but I wouldn’t want to be handcuffed in the middle of the Jedi dropping like flies and being on the chopping block as well.
Mae didn't "forget" about turning herself in. Her plan was to surrender *to Kelnacca,* and when she arrived at his home he was was already dead. It was obvious she would be blamed for killing him (which, to be fair, had been her original goal) *and* she knew her Master was on-site, which she had previously thought he wasn't, so the surrender strategy was already blown by the end of the last episode.
Even though they’ve broken most of the canon that existed ,I still think Jecki is a great character. Just a pity they’ve taken out the best thing in the series with three to go. It was better than last week, but a supposed ‘Sith’, who overwhelmed all those Jedi gets taken hostage by a bunch of big bugs? Huh??? I think Master Vernestra is the one at fault in all this. She’s been in the background all this time, and while we’ve been blaming this person and that, we’ve only seen her in the temple, so we know there is more to this than what they’ve told us. They have three episodes to unravel the mess they’ve made of canon. I hope they’re up to it.
I just gotta ask, what particular mess did they make of the canon that 1. You spotted yourself, 2. Actually annoys you. I’m genuinely curious, like don’t take this as an attack. It’s just I’m interested, because it only seems like this show is causing that complaint. Empire Strikes Back literally decannonised the first ever EU book, and the Clone Wars went from 3 years to 5 overnight.
Where does the show break canon? The creation of Mae and Osha? It's not stated anywhere in canon that Darth Plagueis was the first to ever create life with the Force. If anything, this is probably where he got the idea. The explanation of the Force the witches gave also does not break canon. That's just their belief. The Path of the Open Hand believed that using the Force was harmful. Both groups simply have a different view on the Force. The third "lore-breaking" thing I've seen fans complain about is the Sith. However, all we know is that around the time of the Clone Wars the Jedi believe the Sith have been gone for a thousand years. That doesn't mean there can't have been encounters. Maybe they were later written off as false alarms? In regards of Qimir, my theory is that he's self-taught and not a part of the Rule of Two line. Maybe he found a Sith holocron somewhere?
Mae Saïd she was going to hand her self into the Jedi she don’t want to follow the sith master anymore. Then fails to hand herself in. Runs away allot. This show falls down by the crappy righting. Mae says to jord in the woods there attracted to the light. His responce was. What is? He was there the episode before when he saw the flying slug thing be destroyed by the lightsaber. Yet he claims it’s the first time he’s seen them…. It’s real bad script writing.
At what point does he claim that? Also any show ever has a lot of exposition in order to remind the viewer. This is not new and is a pretty lame attempt at shit talking the writing.

@@markmckeown87 It's bad writing when the show uses a lot of exposition "in order to remind the viewer." You learn that in the first year, Writing 101. That's not shit-talking the writing, that's shitty writing.
Mae was going to hand herself to the Jedi before she discovered Master Kelnacca dead by her Master's hand, and with her stuck there in his house as the prime suspect. Would have damaged her plea to switch sides a bit. She was also clearly afraid of her Master's wrath, and he wasn't on another world as she initially believed, he was right outside - her plan changed to her needing to escape. Ideally with Osha.
the fact that she managed to keep up with a Sith Lord for this long of a fight already proves she would´ve been one of the most talented Jedi Knights. On one hand i applaud the show for being this bold, but it sucks that they wasted a character that still had so much potential. They could´ve killed just Yord.
Acolite episode 5 is the best star wars thing I have ever seen. These fights and choreography surpassed both the Phantom Menace movie and the clone wars episode.
Just realized Qimir is very reminiscent of Darth Starkiller from Force Unleashed…no wonder I like him!! Also, despite getting killed, Daphne Keen proved once more you do NOT mess with X-23 😈
Whew. Boy. That was a lot of Jedi that got killed. Seems to me that the appropriate thing for the Jedi Council to do in response is to sit down and have some meaningful discussions about what transpired. Don’t you think?
It was already stupid that they chose not to tell the council about two Jedi murder or, if they did initially, not keep the Jedi Council appraised of every detail of the case. Not telling the Council that they had a lead they were following was stupid. It should have been left to the Council (or at least a Council member) to decide if they'd tell the Senate...not a lower staff wonk.
😂lol know what I'm saying! They just exposed yo! How the padawan fighting better than the masters? Them Jedi was way 2 comfortable! Thank God 4 Sol! He was handling his business and RIP 2 Jecki ❤she faught like Ahsoka...that savage $@#!

Sol was tasked with abandoning bad batches of potential Jedi. This one is a special one. I'm pretty sure the High Order tried to Order 66 the witches and other threats to the order. This one may have been trained at the temple too and caused havoc politically or was dumped a fire station as an infant. Sweet vengeance is the birth of the Sith. Same with witch influence and harvesting metals like Cortorsis. Sneaky kid. I bet you that this is the Ren origin.
Is it me, or are the twins really bad at pretending to be each other “Where is she?” “Where’s who?” “Where’s wh… the only woman we’ve been dealing with who’s still alive!”
I am pretty sure that Qimir knows that the woman is Osha and not Mae. Sol on the other hand might not have a clue that Mae is with him and not Osha because he currently is off-balance with force.
I also agree that I hope that whatever happened with Sol it wasn’t just oh he’s actually terrible. I want to trust hik but I’m not sure I do. Osha’s gonna be pissed when she learns the full truth.

Glad to see the few people that remember these things. I think every old video game had cortosis as a password for a super long health bar
And in the Hand of Thrown Duology and one or both of the new canon Thrown Trilogies.
And some legends books.
It also featured heavily in the aclaimed Jedi Outcast game from more than 2 decades ago.

Exactly. I wonder if maybe he wasn’t a dark side user in the past?
The girl was only stabbed with a lightsaber 3 times in vital organs. Other Star Wars shows would indicate that’s not necessarily fatal 😀
He wouldn’t have fallen to the dark side because the Republic has outlawed the Sith and the consequences of being a Sith is death on site
@joer3720 Not when it's not a vital organ, nor multiple times.

Anakin was created by the Force. That's why he have such a high M-count.
it was already stabilished, during one of Darth Vader comics volumes, that Sidious creating Anakin was just a fear of his own.

Also the big reveal will be what happened 16 years prior to current events in Brendok. Qmir even mocks Mae for not having realized it was him. He was dropping hints left and right in episode 2 and 4.
@sesskasays there’s a theory on episode 3 during the ceremony behind the mother witches there is a mysterious sith figure in black robes by himself not showing his face at all could be pleagus or his master or smilo ren
The sith has a new acolyte.
I’m at the point now that I do not think Ep 5 happened they way we saw it as viewers. Both Mae and Osha head planted into that red dust. My money is on the whole episode being one or both of their fever dreams. Remember when Mai got to Kelnacca bachelor pad the opossum dude was just standing there in a daze. I can almost imagine that in reality everyone in the episode is just standing in the red powder dazed. Kelnacca is the big bad and he red-powered the witches too.
13:45 Zerg Swarm!
He should have said that’s how you kill a Jedi without a weapon
That was fun and I like how you broke things down. Every man likes a screamer 😈😅🔥
I think they are brothers!?
This episode was brutal fire ❤️🔥❤️🔥 luvin how much ur diggin on it too 🤘
Great reaction
So brutal
Good job it's not Doctor Who or they'd all be brought back to life.
I know they're sisters but anyone else getting almost abusive partner vibes from Mae, it's very if I can't have you no one will.
One of your best reactions yet my dear! Every movement, every comment you made and of course your beautiful laugh and humorous vibe, keep it light and fun as we enjoy 2gether ! #LoudandProud #Closedmouthdontgetfed

I mean he's not really a Sith though, he's more like Maul was after being abandoned by Palpatine or even Kylo Ren since he wasn't Sith either. He's kind of seems like he knows of the Sith and is emulating one but doesn't follow anything that seems Sith-like. He even says he's nothing. He doesn't even claim to be Sith, he just says, by the Jedi's views, they might see him as one. I still wonder if even he is a fake-out.

last episode osha is lagging behing. Shouts sol. All the jedis run back to see the flying creature get killed by the lightsaber. Jord says. It went straight for the lightsaber. Sol replies. They are attracted to light. Same again last episode mae says it don’t matter anymore. That she is going to hand herself in to the Jedi and inform them of what we know. Now this episode. Jord forgot about the flying things attracted to light. And mae forgot she was going to hand her self in.
Well, we know Yord is a bimbo and Mae is a psycho. Those have been the only two consistent motivations they've shown us.
To be fair, Yord had a potential Sith Lord in his face a minute ago so him being forgetful of a few bugs is understandable.
Mae was going to surrender yes , but I wouldn’t want to be handcuffed in the middle of the Jedi dropping like flies and being on the chopping block as well.
Mae didn't "forget" about turning herself in. Her plan was to surrender *to Kelnacca,* and when she arrived at his home he was was already dead. It was obvious she would be blamed for killing him (which, to be fair, had been her original goal) *and* she knew her Master was on-site, which she had previously thought he wasn't, so the surrender strategy was already blown by the end of the last episode.
@@theadamabrams and jord asking what are they when he was in the scene before explaining what they are?
@@Medcanuk He forgot about some bugs after watching several colleagues murdered in front of him...?
Even though they’ve broken most of the canon that existed ,I still think Jecki is a great character. Just a pity they’ve taken out the best thing in the series with three to go. It was better than last week, but a supposed ‘Sith’, who overwhelmed all those Jedi gets taken hostage by a bunch of big bugs? Huh??? I think Master Vernestra is the one at fault in all this. She’s been in the background all this time, and while we’ve been blaming this person and that, we’ve only seen her in the temple, so we know there is more to this than what they’ve told us. They have three episodes to unravel the mess they’ve made of canon. I hope they’re up to it.
I just gotta ask, what particular mess did they make of the canon that 1. You spotted yourself, 2. Actually annoys you.
I’m genuinely curious, like don’t take this as an attack.
It’s just I’m interested, because it only seems like this show is causing that complaint. Empire Strikes Back literally decannonised the first ever EU book, and the Clone Wars went from 3 years to 5 overnight.
Where does the show break canon? The creation of Mae and Osha? It's not stated anywhere in canon that Darth Plagueis was the first to ever create life with the Force. If anything, this is probably where he got the idea. The explanation of the Force the witches gave also does not break canon. That's just their belief. The Path of the Open Hand believed that using the Force was harmful. Both groups simply have a different view on the Force.
The third "lore-breaking" thing I've seen fans complain about is the Sith. However, all we know is that around the time of the Clone Wars the Jedi believe the Sith have been gone for a thousand years. That doesn't mean there can't have been encounters. Maybe they were later written off as false alarms?
In regards of Qimir, my theory is that he's self-taught and not a part of the Rule of Two line. Maybe he found a Sith holocron somewhere?
Mae Saïd she was going to hand her self into the Jedi she don’t want to follow the sith master anymore. Then fails to hand herself in. Runs away allot. This show falls down by the crappy righting. Mae says to jord in the woods there attracted to the light. His responce was. What is? He was there the episode before when he saw the flying slug thing be destroyed by the lightsaber. Yet he claims it’s the first time he’s seen them…. It’s real bad script writing.
At what point does he claim that? Also any show ever has a lot of exposition in order to remind the viewer. This is not new and is a pretty lame attempt at shit talking the writing.
Or.....her master is a certified badass and plan b was gtfo

@@markmckeown87 It's bad writing when the show uses a lot of exposition "in order to remind the viewer." You learn that in the first year, Writing 101. That's not shit-talking the writing, that's shitty writing.
Mae was going to hand herself to the Jedi before she discovered Master Kelnacca dead by her Master's hand, and with her stuck there in his house as the prime suspect. Would have damaged her plea to switch sides a bit.
She was also clearly afraid of her Master's wrath, and he wasn't on another world as she initially believed, he was right outside - her plan changed to her needing to escape. Ideally with Osha.
Awesome reaction of my favorite Star Wars The Acolyte episode!!!!!!😊😊😊😊😊😊
I gasp EVERY time watching that Yord scene. Holy damn
I'm sad we lost Jecki. She was awesome; I really liked her. But hey, at least she died how she lived: being an _absolute badass._
the fact that she managed to keep up with a Sith Lord for this long of a fight already proves she would´ve been one of the most talented Jedi Knights. On one hand i applaud the show for being this bold, but it sucks that they wasted a character that still had so much potential. They could´ve killed just Yord.
Acolite episode 5 is the best star wars thing I have ever seen.
These fights and choreography surpassed both the Phantom Menace movie and the clone wars episode.
Just realized Qimir is very reminiscent of Darth Starkiller from Force Unleashed…no wonder I like him!!
Also, despite getting killed, Daphne Keen proved once more you do NOT mess with X-23 😈
Whew. Boy. That was a lot of Jedi that got killed. Seems to me that the appropriate thing for the Jedi Council to do in response is to sit down and have some meaningful discussions about what transpired. Don’t you think?
Maybe watch the whole thing first before jumping to conclusions?
It was already stupid that they chose not to tell the council about two Jedi murder or, if they did initially, not keep the Jedi Council appraised of every detail of the case. Not telling the Council that they had a lead they were following was stupid. It should have been left to the Council (or at least a Council member) to decide if they'd tell the Senate...not a lower staff wonk.
😂lol know what I'm saying! They just exposed yo! How the padawan fighting better than the masters? Them Jedi was way 2 comfortable! Thank God 4 Sol! He was handling his business and RIP 2 Jecki ❤she faught like Ahsoka...that savage $@#!
I'm glad you enjoyed this episode and was just as loud as I was when I was reacting to it as well! Great video! Such awesome fight choreography!
What’s Jedi Master Sol hiding? The twins families didn’t die in the fire.. 🔥.. Bodies were not burned. Or the walls.. And no debris in the bodies.. 🤔
Sol is very stretchy 😮
He didn’t start the fire. It was always burning since the world’s been turning.
This episode was insane! So brutal! I wasn’t expectijg Yord and Jeckie to die, but I have to respect Disney for making the choice to kill off important charaxters. I’m rather nervous for the mext few episodes. I wonder if Basal knows what’s up? I bet he does. Sol defijitely has darkness in him and Osha saved him. I wonder if maybe he was a dark side user before? Or another under cover dark side user? I doubt it. But he’s most definitely hiding something. Watch him be the main culprit behind the Brendock business. I’d be so sad. I also agree that Jeckie was a freaking bad ass! She was very impressive. And no one was surprised by QuiMir being the sith. Though I hope we see more of him. He’s very impressive. I wonder if Osha will become his new acolyte? Definitely possible. His dialogue with Sol was so good.
Sol was tasked with abandoning bad batches of potential Jedi. This one is a special one. I'm pretty sure the High Order tried to Order 66 the witches and other threats to the order. This one may have been trained at the temple too and caused havoc politically or was dumped a fire station as an infant. Sweet vengeance is the birth of the Sith. Same with witch influence and harvesting metals like Cortorsis. Sneaky kid. I bet you that this is the Ren origin.
Is it me, or are the twins really bad at pretending to be each other
“Where is she?”
“Where’s who?”
“Where’s wh… the only woman we’ve been dealing with who’s still alive!”
Don't believe they killed off Yord and Jackie 😢
I am pretty sure that Qimir knows that the woman is Osha and not Mae. Sol on the other hand might not have a clue that Mae is with him and not Osha because he currently is off-balance with force.
I also agree that I hope that whatever happened with Sol it wasn’t just oh he’s actually terrible. I want to trust hik but I’m not sure I do. Osha’s gonna be pissed when she learns the full truth.
This show is boring 😐
cool your opinion
Oh my lord shut up
Don't watch it.
