Initially I was like "I don't like it's Qimir either" but minutes later I wouldn't let anyone else take the place. Manny Jacinto is too perfect for the role, he nailed it.

[@basicsimp8798]

Manny Jacinto is muscular. I'm pretty sure it's because he always wore the poncho until now.

[@ThunderBZaper]

You know, it’s ironic how Disney is clowned for and I quote: “not having any balls” but killing off both Yord and Jecki in one episode so quickly and dramatically is just jaw dropping

[@jimidando]

i was speechless, i think, i forgot to breath

[@Silencersix]

@@jimidandoso were Yord and Jecki

[@azk9218]

This was quite bsht before too. I mean Andor just executed two guys on their knees, that was pretty dark for Disney. And here we have Qimir literally snapping his neck and throwing him like trash.

[@AntonioCruz-jp4bh]

Jecki will go down as one of my favorite Star Wars characters of all time. A noble patawan who wants nothing but to follow the rules she was given but still fights with the heart of a hero. It’s always the small lovable characters they kill off and they are right to do so, gets you in the feels every time

[@ThatGuy-tx4vm]

Not always. Ahsoka survived.

[@JustGavinBennett]

She was such a great fighter, absolutely relentless, constantly swinging kicking and chasing him down

[@ThunderBZaper]

@@ThatGuy-tx4vm Well, in Tales of the Jedi, Anakin basically saved Ahsoka from Order 66 in Season 7 of the Clone Wars by training her relentlessly, so you could argue that kinda gave us a good background on how she survived

[@adriankuban2904]

​@@JustGavinBennettAcolite 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.

[@CrossOutBryce]

The ONLY reason I knew who the Master was, was because I've seen Manny Jacinto in so much stuff. I was like "they did NOT hire him to be Jason Mendoza from The Good Place all over again" 😂

[@jackbrodie7147]

I cant believe he wiped out all of the Jedi except Sol that was actually tragic. They went off though

[@lukeflyswatter3203]

He would know it's not Mae because she has long hair. He doesn't know she cut her hair.

[@firstlast-wm3li]

I like Qimir as the Sith Lord. Manny Jacinto is a great actor and part for that role.

[@IrrelevantPerson]

Now theyre complaining that Qimir called himself a sith in front of the jedi because they would never do that, like dooku didnt have a whole scene telling obi wan the entire sith plot in aotc and then name dropped sidious for the first time LMAO. I liked this ep a lot, i was expecting for just the red shirts to die and for the rest to escape because of the moths but i was pleasently surprised.

[@ThatGuy-tx4vm]

Dooku was trying to turn Obi Wan remember?

[@IrrelevantPerson]

@@ThatGuy-tx4vm sure, but he’s still telling a member of the Jedi council their whole plan. He’d never even met Kenobi before this point

[@ThatGuy-tx4vm]

@@IrrelevantPerson i don't think it was "the whole plan". What he did, in my mind, appears to be a little encouragement for the jedi to act or be a bit distrustful of the senate and keep things from them... Like the fact that the clone were commisioned by Dooku. I think Sidious told Dooku to leak that info and Dooku hoped to get Obi Wan to join him too and get two birds with 1 stone. It was an essential part of the plan that the jedi distrusted the senate and kept things from them and vice versa eventually.

[@IrrelevantPerson]

@@ThatGuy-tx4vm very good points, I should specify that I was thinking of the part where he name dropped Sidious, which I didn’t really see as anything like that but yeah he was definitely manipulating obi wan all the same. I’ll edit my og comment as well

[@lordfoul6259]

​@IrrelevantPerson you're right Dooku did tell Kenobi a lot about Sidious including what he was his sith name and what he was doing with the senate I know he was just trying to turn him to the dark side but still Dooku revealed a lot

[@bigsilly]

This was great! Like insanely Great!

[@CrossOutBryce]

The deaths in this episode were BRUTAL

[@hayhay1999]

I was stunned when Jecki got triple stabbed I couldn't speak! then when Yorde got his Neck snapped I nearly just switch the show off Noooo! I thought they'd atleast die in the very last episode not half way through! 😫😫

[@JustGavinBennett]

I love this kind of stuff, so unexpected. Didn't think they'd go there but they did

[@lordfoul6259]

This is giving me Darth Bane trilogy vibes definitely a great episode

[@saltyshieldstan]

RIP Jecki and Yord, didn't think we'd lose them so soon 😭😭😭

[@basicsimp8798]

I didn't think we'd lose Jecki and Yord, 😢

[@EM-fl5od]

This episode was really crazy BUT I’m not completely giving up with my theories YET, because I feel like this episode was intentionally meant to be like “Look, now you know all the answers for sure. Mae actually did light the fire and Qimir was behind EVERYTHING.” I still think there’s more to it, especially since Qimir asked Sol if he remembered him.. then Sol said he was familiar. There’s some more history we’re gonna get. Also the lightsaber choreography in this is on par with animated lightsaber choreography, it’s insane and makes me so excited for future Star Wars content from Leslye Headland. I saw that she was interested in adapting Knights of the Old Republic.. YES PLEASE.

[@WC-PO]

I would really love to see Mother Koril again in Season 2.

[@Abstruse1]

Anyone hear Kylo Ren’s theme at about 28 minutes into the episode? The scene at 20:08 in this video

[@angelachung5922]

Mae still needs to kill a Jedi without a weapon. Maybe that's why she followed Sol -- to trick him into some kind of death that doesn't involve a weapon? Who knows lol

[@JesuswasLeftist]

I was just going to say that. He had 1 single-blade and another double blade. Or maybe a “split saber” just like Cal Kestis!!!

[@penpointred]

I luv ur intro! Subscribed and follow! 🍻🤘

[@Soulasiangod]

Spoiler Alert Qimir is DARTH PLAGUEIS who really is a Changling that take switch places with his freind of a different race as a kid after making him kill his self after switching clothes

[@justincasano1041]

Their mother is going to be the sith Master because if you notice the main fifth or acolyte whatever you want to call him is strictly interested in the good sister quote on quote because the mother probably told him she had the most potential

[@Andr3wJM]

What a jawdropping episode. 😮

[@DefMM123]

One of the best saber fights without a doubt!

[@burakyagz5886]

I really don't understand how the people who made this great episode and the first 4 episodes are the same people.

[@JustGavinBennett]

Star Wars isnt all about lightsaber fights, you gotta learn to enjoy the slower moments with dialogue too

[@burakyagz5886]

⁠@@JustGavinBennettI am not talking about fights overall the episode is better dialogue is far more engaging as well in the first 4 episodes even the fights were bad its like they waited for this episode to do everything great

[@AV-xm5ln]

This is the best star wars show ever!

[@tonyilias2561]

Thank God this abomination on the Star Wars franchise has been cancelled 😂

[@pictureperfect3211]

First off…you are so cute! Second off, refer to the first comment.

[@skullwarrior13]

Peak

[@burakyagz5886]

Finally an episode that is actually good

[@mikenelson1624]

🖤✨💫❗️✨🫸💫

[@ranialovedayana5353]

I forgive Disney 😊

[@sirfishe9949]

you cannot force heal with the dark side. That's a load of bs

[@IrrelevantPerson]

In legends Sidious was able to use the light side of the force to force heal, I don’t see why that can’t happen here? Dark side users aren’t blocked the light side just like light side users aren’t blocked from the dark side

[@EM-fl5od]

Both Legends and Canon have ways of doing it. In The Old Republic games, there’s a dark side ability called “seethe” where you meditate using the dark side to build up and restore strength. In Canon, the Dathomirian witches could heal and strengthen people using their magic. And Maul was also able to stay alive purely using his hatred for over 10 years on a trash planet.
