Since Kylo Rens theme played in the back round at the end im pressuming he is going to start the Knights of Ren that Kylo takes over and him saying that they would call him sith is just because he has a red lightsaber and kills Jedi.. i personally think.

That don’t matter because if sol goes to the Jedi temple he will say “ he identified as a sith” still lore breaking but yes lets cope with the fact this show can’t be consistent with anything lol

[@thegreatjedi309]

I think it's just his way of phrasing. The Sith were the ultimate archenemy of the Jedi. Aspiring dark siders won't pretend to be Sith to hide who they really are. They would claim to be Sith when they don't really understand what it truly means to be one. If your goal is to oppose or even destroy the Jedi, being a Sith is the highest ranking, most menacing enemy of them all.

[@Mjsports3730]

She duel wielded green lightsabers too

[@thedarkknight2221]

I still can’t believe they brought the Cortosis armor from the books and comics into live action. It’s a material that nullifies blaster shots and temporarily disables lightsabers. In canon it was seen in the novel Thrawn: Alliances and in the Doctor Aphra comics. It’s incredibly rare and even harder to refine into armor, and while it’s relatively weak against strong impacts, it can nullify blaster bolts and deactivate lightsabers temporarily upon impact.

[@pemberliegh]

I've been thinking about how people have pointed out that twice when Qimir was doing his thing, the Kylo Ren music played. Does that mean he is an early Knight of Ren. Or maybe he is the first Ren? I think all we really know about them is that they were around before the galactic civil war, supposedly for centuries, but idk stories of the boogie man can be weird and unreliable. But they were around. Everything else we know is from Kylo-ish time that a group of raiders who claimed to be them or named themselves after the legend of the knights popped out of obscurity to fill the force power void left by the fallen jedi and, subsequently, the fallen sith, as well. So maybe this is Qimir Ren, who turns out actually starts the knights... collecting the acolytes he so desperately wants. Maybe Mae and/or Osha will be his first knight(s) by the end of the series. His vibe and outlook on the force is verrrry similar to theirs. If he is the first Ren, that would mean he's not a sith, no formal training or adherence to the sith ways, but there's not yet a name for what he actually is bc he hasn't yet formed the knights. And that's why he's like... eh I'm not anything in particular, but sith is the closest you can get so that's what you'd call me if you were looking for a label.

[@quinndelcarmen1384]

yes. i think he might be the founder of the knights. he even dresses like them. sort of ronin-like in black with a helmet. i think this show might be giving us the origin of the knights of ren.

To address Dustin’s Ki-Adi-Mundi comment, all KAM sees is a holo video of Mae while she’s fighting Sol (and/or Indara) and at no point do they see a red lightsaber or anything to indicate Sith. Indara referred to Mae as a rogue force user, Vernestra said she must be trained by a Jedi, etc. And KAM has yet to see or know anything that’s going on Khofar. At this point, KAM has no reason to think it’s a Sith.

[@rawkmode6315]

Qimir's bracer and helmet are made of cortosis, which reflects energy and temporarily shorts out light sabers on contact. Also, Qimir isn't a Sith lord, he's an illegitimate second apprentice to the reigning Sith lord, Darth Tenebrous. The "real" apprentice is Darth Plagueis. When Qimir says that what he is has no name, but that the Jedi would think he's a Sith, he's being accurate. Because of the Rule of Two, Qimir can't be an actual Sith in technical terms, but the Jedi wouldn't make that distinction. If they keep with canon, then Qimir's Sith name is "Venamis," although he can't carry the "Darth" title. Venamis attempted to betray Tenebrous, failed, and suffered a fate worse than death. I'm fairly sure that is what "The Acolyte" is about, telling the story of Venamis' betrayal and failure. Darth Tenebrous was learning the secrets of manipulating life from the coven of Force witches, so the Jedi went there and killed everyone, which is the big secret they're keeping. Tenebrous and Plagueis took what they learned from the witches and tried to learn how to create or manipulate life, then Plagueis kills Tenebrous and takes Sidious as an apprentice. Plagueis and Sidious experiment with the knowledge and unwittingly create Anakin Skywalker. Yo guys, Qimir very specifically didn't say he was a Sith. What he said was, "I have no name, but a Jedi like you might call me...Sith." I would also assume that they did the reveal at this point in the show because Qimir is not the Big Bad, he's just the primary antagonist fighting the heroes.

[@AlbertoMartinez765]

Nice..did not know this but that makes a lot of sense and if correct may shut up a lot of the "But the Lore is This people who are complaining that the show is screwing up the Lore its not at all then.

[@ECA2]

That's a very accurate description of what's occurring during this era. Darth Tenebrous is the Sith Lord that's experimenting with using the Force to create life. The tie-in with the Witches makes sense. Somehow, the incidents in this episode must be covered up by these Jedi because 100 years in the future, the Jedi of the Phantom Menace thinks the Sith are extinct.

[@rawkmode6315]

@@ECA2 Everyone is going to die before the show ends. Its the only way. I think from the Jedi perspective, what happened is that Master Sol led a team to intercept the prime murder suspect before she could kill the wookie dude, and nobody ever returned from the mission.

[@ModeMan101]

I think this might be telling the story of Plagueis rather than Tenebrous, with Qimir being Plagueis' apprentice. I don't believe Venamis is included in current canon (although I'm admittedly no expert).

[@rylenperkins]

Qimir is trying to form the knights of ren. Since the knights of ren was never known about those 100 years bc they killed the ones that found out about their appearance but are known to use dark side power. Which is why he is looking for an acolyte. Read the knights of ren comic to understand a bit more bc he has all the feature of the knights of ren if you look closely.

[@erikolson4148]

Apparently the stranger's/master's/Qimir's helmet and brace/band around his left arm is made of a very rare material that is called cortosis. It can deflect blaster fire, stun rings, and lightsaber strikes, and can temporarily negate/short out lightsabers if it touches/hits the emitter of the lightsaber blade. However, it is fibrous and much more brittle compared to Beskar armor, because with repeated strikes, a lightsaber can still cut through it 🤔.

[@quinndelcarmen1384]

[@hollywoodguy70]

Thank you!!

[@jollyrayda]

Sol feeling a familiarity with Qimir probably does have bigger meaning, but I figured Yord's reaction was simply because of the earlier interaction in the shop. And Qimir knows it's not Mae - he saw the tattoo. Same as I'm pretty sure Sol knows it is Mae, given his little "Where is she?" "Who?" "Your sister" interaction.

[@thejuansnow]

To be fair he DIDNT flat out say he was a sith, he said he has no name but a jedi like sol would CALL him sith. That seems very intebtionally worded, they also played kylo rens motif for him twice. I think hes gonna turn out to be the first Ren, ot a sith

[@Brook11223]

Ah this episode was a game changer thanks to the incredible lightsaber battle and the bread crumbs dropped by Qimir. Qimir seriously is the breakout character throughout every episode he has appeared in so far. Also the armor he wore can also short circuit the lightsaber and it's called Cortosis metal.

While the reveal wasn’t really a shock I like how they did it. The only questions I have now: 1. What happened during the fire 2. What’s Sol hiding and what’s his relationship with the Sith 3. What’s going to happen to Mae and Osha

[@Adriangabs]

I just love the way Qimir fights

[@G1Transformed]

16:49 "You never could block." --Mae I don't know how you'd block a blast, but apparently it can be done. 18:50 Sol spends the whole series calling Osha by her name to only ask, "where is she. Your sister?" Sol knows this is Mae. He chose these words to throw Mae and the audience off. He came to get Mae, wasn't going to lose the opportunity she presented him. How is this going to play out? Mother Aniseya and Mother Koril wanted Osha and Mae to stay together because the two need each other, they complete each other; they are two sides of the same coin: "You're with me, I'm with you Always one, but born as two As above sits the stars, and below lies the sea, I give you you, and you give me me" --Mae and Osha They never got to finish their training, but now they get that chance. Qimir has taken Osha and he's going to show her the Dark Side, which is her coven's witchcraft, the side she rejected 16 years ago. Sol has Mae, and Mae is going to see a different perspective, the Light Side of the Force. The next three episodes should be interesting. We still have one more flashback with Kelnacca fighting someone on Brendok. And Master Vernestra using her whip lightsaber. Can't wait!

[@sheldnz]

I think also these are peacetime Jedi, with very little practical fighting experience. Victims of their own success.

[@EM-fl5od]

16:45 Not necessarily a plot hole, people have different reactions to stuns depending on their durability. Remember when we saw Ahsoka train to block blaster fire and she built a resistance to stuns?

[@thejuansnow]

So his helmet and gauntlet are made of cortosis, its a brittle metal that can disrupt lightsabers and blasters

[@AlbertoMartinez765]

WOW this show went from MID but interesting for the new Lore to HOLY HELL this is Incredible!!! AAAhhhh

[@Vulcanerd]

Pretty sure Qimir knows he has Osha. Like Dustin mentioned, she has short hair, she has a wound in her side and has a tattoo on her arm that Mae doesn’t which he got a clear look at.

[@quinndelcarmen1384]

also, he healed her. if it was mae, he would have killed her while she was knocked out. he didnt want mae as an acolyte anymore. he definitely knows it's osha.

I was also thinking that there was some deeper history between Yord, Sol, and Qimir, but they would have recognized him before when they were tracking Mae. They all interrogated him together, so that may be the familiarity that they had.

[@eawhite782]

It's not just a Sith who could potentially fight a group of Jedi like this. Any strong Dark Side Force User could if they are a strong lightsaber duelist and strong enough in the Force. Even the Jedi vary wildly in how good they are with a lightsaber. Hell, General Grievous could take on multiple Jedi and kill them without even having the Force. Also, remember that Ahsoka was a Padawan when she fought Grievous, and wasn't even a Jedi when she defeated Maul, and Obi-Wan was a Padawan when he beat Maul. So being a Padawan doesn't mean you can't hold your own. Qimir didn't actually say he was a Sith. He only said that a Jedi like Sol might call him a Sith. He might be something else. And his reveal of being Qimir, isn't for us, it's for the other characters. Lastly, stun weapons usually only knock out an individual for a few minutes, although some could stay knocked out for up to an hour. So Mae getting up so quickly is not a plot hole.

[@Killm33]

Some of, if not the best, lightsaber fights in Star Wars history!!!!! Holy Moly 🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@lordfoul6259]

Mae is either gonna kill Sol or like completely discredit him and erase evidence this episode gave me Darth Bane trilogy vibes especially the second book where a group of jedi discovered that Darth Bane was still alive with his apprentice and they killed all the jedi and put the blame on someone else

[@marshsundeen]

Kelnacca might get blamed.

[@lordfoul6259]

@marshsundeen good theory but I was thinking of Sol like Mae as Osha tells everyone that he suddenly snapped and killed everyone that way when he tries to tells the jedi about the sith nobody believes him treachery is the way of the sith

[@The2ndQuest]

Also- the Kylo Ren theme underneath that last scene with Qimir. Could be a Knights of Ren origin/connection there (and play into the "I have no name [for what I am]"-type angle), instead of a straight-out Sith (especially if Qimir is a rival apprentice to Plagueis- and would fit into the theme of a splinter order/rogue Jedi already suggested in the series, which would further murky the water in terms of the Jedi believing that the Sith could return a century later). With Sol's darkness, being so tormented by his emotions this whole show.... could Sol actually end up becoming the Acolyte? A fallen Sol would be so tragic- but would also wrap up the biggest "if Qimir is a Sith, then how did Sol not tell the Jedi" question outside of the sisters.

[@tedmaire1599]

Yord recognized him from when he was posing as the apothecary.

[@mikelee990]

Dead men tell no tales.

[@btgardener39]

Qimir didn't leave the lightsaber behind. It got carried up with him when he got briefly abducted by the umbramoths. Also, it seemed pretty clear that Sol, upon reviving from the stun, was a bit unsettled and confused -- and maybe Mae used a little bit of Force suggestion on him to encourage him to immediately depart? As for leaving the bodies behind... come on. Not everyone is at Yoda, Anakin, Luke, or Rey power levels. Most Jedi probably can't easily hoist a whole body and carry it for literal HOURS, let alone seven or eight of them, and knowing that the bad guy is still around would definitely be a reason to get the hell out of the jungle ASAP.

[@KittyBoom360]

This looks likes the origins of the Knights of Ren, not Sith, if you ask me. The Sith already have a long lineage of masters and apprentices going back a long time, probably back to when they were a race and in large numbers. The Knights of Ren are a more recent version of forcer-users that also will use the dark side.

[@ciaran4135]

Considering how obvious the reveal was, I'm assuming there's more to the mystery. A show rarely puts all of its cards on the table in episode 5 of 8. My theory is that the Sith that Mae encountered, there's two of them. There's a second one and they pulled a Scream on our asses. My guesses are that either Indira or Mother Korril are involved.

[@marionhope7506]

[@arthurwilliams7511]

I think it’s a great representation of a sith from that era. He’s young. I thought he was probably an apprentice the current Sith Lord at that time but now I’m not sure. It would make sense if he had just killed his master and is seeking an apprentice. Also because he’d be feeling especially powerful and confident at that time.

The show is very simplistic, and it feels like a cartoon for children. It is enjoyable, but it feels like it's not elaborated or thought through for adults to enjoy (like Andor). But, well.... I think Yord recognized Qimir from when they met in episode 2, and maybe that's also where Qimir thinks Sol could have recognized him from. But Idk. Qimir doesn't say he is a Sith... He says: "Jedi like you would call me Sith". As the show is so simplistic, though, that's probably what he is. I'm sad about Jekki and Yord. They were cool. 🫤😭 Especially her.

How does it works that all complementary reviews on starwars s5 uploaded within an hour three days after show comes out?

[@TheMovieCouple]

I don't understand this comment?

[@tylerbrown5526]

Am now wondering if the season will end with Osha learning about what Sol did and she becomes the acolyte.

[@Killm33]

NUTS!!!! 🔥🔥🤯🤯

[@Sirachaasauce]

Keep in mind like in episode 3 the Sith already knew it was osha when she was trying to pretend she was her sister

[@Persephone_Personified]

Those arms though.... 😮

[@MJosephB]

Well, technically he never called himself a Sith. He said “they (the Jedi) would call him Sith”.

[@seangargan]

He didn’t say he was a Sith, he said he had no name, but the Jedi might call him a Sith. Yord recognized him because they interrogated him in episode 2

Qimir

[@marshsundeen]

Yord and Sol spoke to Qimir at the apothecaries.

[@edgarrivera1340]

He didn’t say im a sith.he said a Jedi like you might call me sith 🤦‍♂️

[@jenscamilo]

I don't think Qimir is a Sith. He just said that the Jedi would call him that. I believe he was a Padawan who left the Order and discovered the Darkside on his own. But he wants to become a Sith. Remember, the Sith are always in pairs - a master and a student. That's why Qimir wants to have a student. He probably thinks this is how he becomes a real Sith.

[@Bryan-wu1ss]

Yellow sabers are temple guards that’s why they got killed easily but also he’s not Sith lord because even the Sith don’t allow the hidden blade and they don’t allow their followers to disengage their blade and engage it to kill somebody

[@quinndelcarmen1384]

he fights like a knight of ren, including the engage / disengage method and unarmed combat if needed. maybe he is the founder of the knights that the comic on them hinted about.

[@Drrck11]

Amazing episode. 👍🏾👍🏾

[@JacobRed-q2w]

The way Yord was killed was not super TV-14.

[@Nodnarb0130]

He was the "Sol" survivor :(

[@TheNeomaul]

Beskar helmet 🪖 stops Jedi lightsabers and mind tricks…..right?

[@richklinefelter]

This series is basically Squid Game. Like that series, Lee Jung Jae's character will be the last one remaining... yet, he's not likely to survive, nor this Dark side "Force" user... Thus preserving the secrecy behind the Sith until TPM...
