[@christophercromer6551]

I don't think Din was dragged under. I got the impression that he didn't know there was a dropoff and he got pulled to the bottom by the weight of his armor.

[@OGLewbaby]

I agree with this 100%. If he had been pulled, he would have been jerked under... he just stepped and there was no step and he sank like a rock.

[@12bigredd]

there are no coincidences in the force.....

[@leeflorence3838]

I thought dragged at first, but after seeing the immediate drop-off right in front of where he disappeared I'm thinking yea he fell off. Also, How would the MS have grabbed him? It doesn't have tentacles to reach up that far all sly like, and IF it had grabbed him, why would he still be alive and it just chilling up there.

[@denbleygv9238]

made me wonder if they were never meant to survive bathing in those waters because you would sink. So death was the only way to redeem yourself.

[@rashworth080]

​@@12bigredd I do agree that the weight of the armor was most likely how Din sunk down into the water. But, I do also agree that it wasn't a coincidence that both him and Bo-Katan saw a living Mythosaure down there. The Force definitely has something planned ahead. I have no doubt that when the time comes, it will be determined that either Din Djarin or Bo-Katan Kryze will not only wield the dark saber. But one will also find a way to tame and ride the mythosuare to lead for a new age for Mandalore. And if anything, Grogu will likely be the bridge to finally form peace and friendship with Jedi and Mandalorians.

I’m really hoping Grogu becomes leader of Mandalore and ushers in a new high republic. One that is aligned with the light side of the force but includes an emphasis on family and human emotion. The perfect mix of Jedi and Mandolorian culture

[@jacrudale]

Bo-Katan just realized a few things: 1. I went in that water as a CHILD and that thing was down there the entire time??? and 2. The re emergence of the Mythosaur coincides with the re emergence of the Mandalorian people. There is more to Din than I thought, this can't be a coincidence

[@marcoslaureano5562]

Glad you can see it at least - as the rest of these "fans" think he got "yanked" under by his own weight.

[@ethanlingerfelt8679]

Close, Bo states that the caverns were not as deep when she was a kid. The bombing opened up the caverns, but I think we can all agree she wet herself.

[@jamesnewton485]

So glad Jon and Dave had Din Djarin find the living waters in the second episode. To me this proves they are not simply writers and producers, they are fans. My biggest concern for the season was having to wait until the last episode or second to last episode for Din and Grogu to find the waters. By doing the story like this I think it really opens up a lot of possibilities rather than a season of average adventures designed to get us to the mines and living waters. This may even allow for old Mandalrian wounds to heal between all it's people.

[@Kyoril]

My bets. This season is going to show Grogu really going through a maturity growth. Talking. Easily using the force. No more nappy times. Learning to pilot the N1. Reaching out to other creatures, the Mythosaur and Purgil, like Ezra did in Rebels. Mando, and Bo will reunite House Kryze and Visla. Pirates will get their asses kicked. It's gonna be an awesome season.

[@akivaplutno]

I agree

[@squuid15]

The Mythosaur was not the reason Mando was pulled under. When Bo Katan is passing it, it clearly looks like it just woke up, and doesn't care about them all that much. If it was the reason Mando was pulled under it both would not have been asleep, and it would have been actively trying to get Mando, as it has only been a few seconds. Although it is hard to say, I think that Mando literally just sunk because he was wearing full Beskar armor with no jetpack.

[@redvonmunster3731]

I honestly think he just hit the "deep end" and sunk like a stone.

[@sortasurvival5482]

Lmao. Yup. Few would be strong enough to swim that weight. He hust stepped off a small ridge under water...

[@overland1178]

Bro was in a constant state of distress the whole episode

Bro, but the second he was sunk, Bo fuckin went to get him. Like 1 second later. And she couldn't fucking get him before he was already at the bottom. And she was also with armor plus the fuckin jetpack. There's no way he just sunk, and for that I mean there's no way Favreou is gonna say "he just felt to the bottom in 1 second"

[@ironized]

Can I introduce you to Chekhov’s mythosaur

[@repoman182]

Dude that is exactly what I thought too... It must have been living in one of the deeper lower down aquifers and the bombing shook it loose from its habitat or it's old habitat could have collapsed. Now as for the din bo katan rivalry.... Right up until that moment, specially after he paid respect to her father's sacrifice, she was developing a modicum of respect and admiration for him and his dedication to the Creed. And finding this mythosaur while he was trying to redeem himself, has got to be a clear signal to both of them that they're both meant to rule mandalore TOGETHER

[@Commanderstevo]

As the saying goes, there can only be one! Bo had her shot, and the Mandalorians were scattered to the winds. The dark saber clearly still accepts her, however that doesn't mean other Mando's will. I think it's time for someone else to rule.

[@MyrmThaBadMan]

@@Commanderstevo Mandalore the Uniter.

[@dungeonguy88]

@@Commanderstevo I mean, the Darksaber itself doesn't care. Like all lightsabers, the Darksaber just reacts to the mindset of the wielder. If you're clear of mind and purpose, you have no trouble wielding the Darksaber. If you're a deeply superstitious cult member that is rife with shame and self-doubt for questioning his beliefs...the Darksaber picks up on that.

[@Commanderstevo]

@@dungeonguy88 I agree, to an extent. I would argue it's more than just the users mindset. Afterall non force sensitives could not do anything like a proper jedi with a lightsaber. This is because they lacked the knowledge of how the blade works. Energy constantly flows through the crystal, you aren't fighting so much with a simple blade as you are with a current of power. This is why your thoughts and actions manifest in the blade as you become a part of its cricit. While yes, Din certainly does have a lot weighing down on his mind, he was pretty clear in mind and purpose. Even after Bo rescued him he was still determined on making it to the living waters to be forgiven for his transgretions. Remember it was heavy for him *before* he became an apostate. You might say it was because he was dealing with not seeing grogu, even when he got him back it was still heavy. We all know much more about lightsabers than Din, he doesn't know how the force works, they call jedi "sorcerers" and the force as magic. He is thinking of it as just some sword, not realizing that he has to form a "bond" with it, that he needs to connect with it, and realize its a part of him. TL:DR it is mindset, I just think it's deeper than having a depressing week and so sword gets heavy, Din is missing fundimental knowledge on how to properly wield the blade. I hope Bo came to realize there is something about Din, and educates him on how to actually use the darksaber.

[@MrMezmerized]

Until Grogu comes of age of course. I think the Mythosaur sensed a force weilder and that it will bond with Grogu. Then with Grogu giving the go, Din can ride the Mythosaur. And I think Bo Katan will allowed to wield the Darksaber, because to the Mandalorians Mythosaur trumps Darksaber anyway. Nice symbolism of shared power. As regents and champions to Grogu together they will unite the Mandalorians.

[@Pecos1]

Ok, I have to point something out. Din was NOT violently dragged under the water. As he was walking, he stepped off an unknown ledge, and two things impacted that moment: Din was sti.. weakened by the fluid drain, and though Beskar is not normally heavy, his armor acted as weights, dragging him to the bottom. When Bo-Katan reached the bottom of the waters, virtually no silt was stirred up, and Din was on his back. He was still too weak to be able to swim back up, plus he didn't have his jet pack on. If the Mythosaur had "violently dragged" Din down into the depths, the waters would not have remained so clear.

[@corbinclements2222]

[@JulieMoran1832]

THANK YOU! I've been seeing people say he was dragged under but never saw any evidence of that. I thought he was just weak then there was the drop off.

[@gcanaday1]

You think Filoni, et al, thought this through to this level of detail?

[@fendisaintlaurent4257]

Facts!

[@jacrudale]

Wouldn't be surprised if Bo-Katan is like, "leave it to the Armorer to make you a jetpack without telling you how to use it" "You don't ever take that jetpack off unless you are in a secure location or you are piloting a ship. That pack is your life"

[@TheNotoriousCheeto]

Back in season 1, a friend of mine said he thought the shows title "The Mandalorian" refers not to Din Djarrin, but to Grogu. He said he thought Grogu would be raised as a Mandalorian and become the next Mandalorian Jedi, claim the Darksaber, and become the new ruler of Mandalore. I scoffed at his idea, but now I think he might be on to something.

[@mahfujrahman7783]

Really! The moment mando sank, bo katan dived, with her jetpack. Now consider her weight with the armour pulling her down and the force jet pack also pushing her down, yet it took her quite some time to get to mando. And you are saying he just sanked, without any help of force pulling him down faster than that jetpack of bo katan to fall that deep?? Do you see the logic here?

[@sdixon50cal]

I think we were all misled by the title "the Mandalorian." This series is shaping up that it might not be a story about Din Djarn but as an Origin story for Grogu to become the leader of Mandalore. As a force sensitive he can wield the dark saber, control large beasts and has shown in the latest episode the ability to fight off enemies. Grogu is the real "Mandalorian."

[@avgvstvs96]

I think Bo Katan will willingly let Din Djarin lead the new age of Mandalore. The scene where she watches Din go into the water and looks totally inspired by his devotion starts setting that up, Bo had her chance to rule and she sees that Din is as worthy and devoted as the best of the Mandalorians. In fact, Din is the physical representation of the perfect Mandalorian, while Bo's reading the plaque on the monuments in a sarcastic tone Din is exercising his complete devotion to the creed. She will surely see the irony in this, and feel content to let Din lead. I don't know if Grogu will lead the Mandalorians, he can, as Din's successor, but Grogu won't be old enough to lead for a long time which sets him up nicely to rule Mandalore after Din, and then lead the Jedi after that

Darksaber shares some sentience, apparently a bit more than other sabers/crystals, and it seems to work best with those with ambition and drive. Din is atm still conflicted over what he's seen and experienced, because underneath the dealings as a bounty hunter with scum of the galaxy and the Creed... he doesn't know himself, or what he wants. The Darksaber is simply not a tool to be used by dogmatic wielders, it's driven by emotion.

[@dungeonguy88]

The Darksaber doesn't care about who wields it. Like all lightsabers, the Darksaber has a Kyber crystal as its core. Kyber crystals are conduits for the Force, so much so that they're almost alive. Because they are so attenuated to the Force, they can react and amplify the feelings and mindset of the wielder. This is why the Jedi and the Sith both favor lightsabers in particular. Apart from being deadly weapons, a lightsaber can literally strengthen a Jedi's focus or a Sith's rage. But even with a non-Force User the Kyber crystals still react in this way. They react and amplify the feelings of a wielder and rebound it back upon them. If you're clear of mind, certain of your purpose, and no plagued by self-doubt, a lightsaber is light and easy to wield. If you're filled with self-doubt, superstition, and reject what a given lightsaber represents it will reflect that back on the wielder. The wielder's thoughts will become unfocused, the blade will fight against them and feel heavy. It's all about the mindset of the wielder. The Darksaber itself truly doesn't give a crap beyond that.

My thinking is that Din and Bo-Katan might end up in a romantic relationship. I'd be genuinely surprised if Disney allowed Filoni to let them fight to the death for the Title of Mandalore. Grogu seems to be forming a bond with her, too, seeing how far and how much she did for Din after Grogu was sent to her for help. A bit into the "Above and Beyond" category, if you ask me. I think her Watch's Oath was rekindled in her after confirming the existence of the mighty Mythosaur. One of my predictions was that Din would either tame or kill one to regain his status.

[@jamestilman5508]

Also grogu noticed the way she was looking at din with a kind of admiration. Hence why she said “what are you looking at?”

[@eenn78]

If the Mythosaur doesn't get to the ruins of the city and rampage Zillo-beast style I will be upset

[@durtyred86]

Hard pass. It'll just be killed..... Like the Zillo-beast..

[@kevind3974]

They are Star Wars version of a dragon so it fitting.

[@squuid15]

I don't see why they would do that. There is nothing to destroy in a rampage. All the destruction would be a waste of money in filming

[@JRM92B]

imagine Grogu on the mythosaur's back holding the dark saber xD

He wasn’t dragged he stepped off the edge and the weight of his armor is why he went down so fast. And he dropped his rocket pack before he went in.

[@red5555]

Great video.

[@FellVoice]

I'm so excited for Mando Season 3! And Thank the Maker!

[@m1k3droid]

My theory about Din Jarrin being rejected by the Dark Saber: The Saber knows Moff Gideon intentionally lost his fight with Din in order to deny Bo Katan the Saber, so it was not a noble victory.

[@Mr_Mcgee_]

I think ultimately, Grogu is going to end up with the Darksaber and a Mythosaur. He may not be the first one to do so, but I have no doubt that Grogu is going to end up the leader of the new Mandalorians at some point.

[@bigdogben]

He wasn't actually dragged under water. He just fell and sunk due to his heavy armor. Which is kinda funny.

[@AffiliatesOfTheDeep]

dude that scene went hard... also im pretty sure Mando just didn't know about the drop-off and slipped a little cause he had beskar armor which is probably heavy af

[@joelincz8314]

I like the idea that he tripped and his heavy armor dragged him down. You might be right about everything else.

[@chrisdavey8471]

I’m pretty sure he just didn’t expect the sudden drop and just sank from the weight of his armor. And plus the mythosaur woke up when bo swam by it

[@HIMcules2112]

We didn't ride them, we hunted them to extinction

[@jacobdrolet4262]

Amazing

[@loafyz335]

i think it's gonna be a new royal family with grogu being the next tarre vizsla (being the second mandalorian jedi), Din Djarin being the one who rides the mythosaur and Bo Katan wielding the darksaber since she seemed to have no problem wielding it in s3 ep 2

[@jeremygreenberg1279]

I think I want a Mythosaur skull tattoo! 💀Oh, and when Grogo used Jedi Mind control on the beast in earlier episodes that might have been foreshadow to his riding the great Myhosaur in next season.

[@mrjankee25]

This is the way love this line

[@frostcreeperhdg3002]

What's funny to me is the time when Mando got "dragged" down the water... I mean he looks like he just fell down like not knowing how deep it is🤣🤣🤣

[@marjoriecohn3868]

This history and story is incredibly interesting. Thanks for providing these details. I'm not sure I'd agree with you that Bo Karan and Din discovered the mythosaur together because Din might have been unconscious and possibly only Bo Karan saw it. Also we've seen no indication at all that Din wants to lead the Mandalorians. He stumbled on the darksaber unknowingly. He just wants the only family he knows to accept him back. Grogu will be pivotal but I'm afraid to think of how.

[@Waiting4theend]

The steps ended abruptly, and he is in full plate. He just sank. That is all.

[@anyagetman8596]

Grogu rides the beast with adoptive mom Bo and dad Din supporting him.

[@shawnatv4355]

If you remember in Boba Fett when he Rode the beast. The Tamer (by the way was played by Danny Trejo's Machete) said when the beast wakes up he is bonded to the first person he sees. In this case Bo Katan. GROKU may be able to speak to the beast but the beast will recognize Bo as it's Companion. Along with the Dark Saber Bo should be the new leader of Mandalore.

[@gameknight9991]

I can just imagine the Mythosaur wearing Beskar armour that would be absolutely hilarious and very scary at the same time cause it would be very hard to kill with Beskar armour on.

[@Wraist]

Can some one point me at the episode where din jaradin(apologies for spelling) mentioned he was interested in leading Mandalore? I was very certain he was happy to give the dark sabre to Bo katan at the end of season 2 What did I miss?

[@kingpanther424]

Only the people who love din djarin say that, but the character himself only cares about Grogu, and becoming mandalorian again in the eyes of his tribe. I’m my opinion it looks more like Bo katan or Boba Fett could become Mandalore

[@LEF3133]

I don’t believe he wants to lead but prove that Mandalore isn’t cursed and liveable so that they can be reunited and not spread across the galaxy like stars as he says. He was a loner who accepts help when needed. He had 2 years with the dark saber and swings it like a toddler with a sledgehammer yet Bo can pick it up instantly and have no issues. It knows true leaders.

[@huntergrant6520]

I did in fact expect mythosaur. I however don't expect, but would be grateful to see, a basilisk wardroid.

[@jamiebarraclough8981]

Awesome development

[@richardarmstrongiii9980]

Be interesting to see them both become the leaders together

[@whatshappeningnext]

Hello, I just finished watching a different video said that the Great Mandalorian helmet carved from sternum of Mythosaur. Was the helmet carved from the skull or the sternum?

[@tamara6941]

A few thoughts - why are the living waters known by that name? Could it be a factor in the return of the Mythosaur? Or was it just called that because a Mythosaur lived in it? I wasn't sure Din actually noticed the Mythosaur at all. He wasn't the most focused. It seemed like Bo-Katan saw it but didn't mention it? I think Boba Fett's rancor was foreshadowing in more ways than one. The fact the Mythosaur first looked at Bo-Katan means she might be in a unique position of being able to tame it (like Boba Fett and the rancor). Someone commented as much on another video and I think they're right. It would've seen Din too, but she's the one who seemed to meet its gaze. I also reached the conclusion that the weight of Din's armour pulled him down under the water. The Mythosaur looked sleepy at the time.

[@ZombicidalMadMom81]

Great video! I personally don't see Din wanting to lead or rule, I think that's why he has trouble with the Dark Saber. In my humble opinion, I think the Dark Saber is, on some level, aware that it has its own purpose, to unite all of Mandalore, and so the saber is more 'submissive' or lighter for those whose intentions align w/ the Saber. Being heavy for Din is the saber's way of saying "no, we should do this instead"' and since Bo Katan's intentions coincide w/ the Saber, it becomes lighter, working w/ her instead of against her. Either Bois going to end up w/ the Dark Saber or Din is going to decide to help lead Mandalore into a new era

[@indigdoc]

The DS is only a weapon, albeit with a couple of special features. It is NOT a sentient being. The DS has no 'awareness'. Din should become Manda'lor now as his mind is now clear - he has Grogu back and has now 'redeemed' himself. PLUS, Din's force-sensitivity should now emerge (he and his parents were Whills). Rumor/leaks state that Bo could become Manda'lor at the end of season 3, but I don't see it. Romantically, she and Din could become a thing, as his example is softening her disbelief and shecontinually goes out of her way to save his ass repeatedly (3 x's to date). The only 'true' threat to Din is one of the unknown members of the Ordo Clan...as it is reported that some were involved in the last Mando Civil War (when Bo was the Regent of Mandalore). Several people have wielded the DS - Maul, Sabine, Gar Saxon, Bo-Karen, Moff G, now Din. The others had no problem with the blade (except Sabine). It is a curious circumstance? Maul & Moff G are force-sensitive, so that explains their ease of use. This inconsistency is somewhat baffling.

[@clintn6677]

My TV in my bedroom was a bit lighter than the one in my living room so I could see a good bit of silhouette swim away

[@anotherfriend1998]

Little Grogee riding that beast, and force lighting frying an army of clonetroopers, while wherein mandoorlaion armor.... oh yeah back ground music the trooper from Iron maiden, or thunder from ACDC, lol, that is worthy of being in a movie lmfao would love to see that

[@Markivelli]

The Mythosaur preformed the same baptism we saw in episode one in my opinion. It was down there all this time , it most likely saw it all the time.

[@01taran]

Boba riding the Rancor is a wink and a nod to Boba riding the Rancor in the holiday special or Droids.

[@Vocu]

he wasnt violently dragged, he sunk like a rock in a suit of heavy armor when the water was no longer shallow

[@samaeldrakul4191]

This is the way!

[@DawnOfDoom12]

Your word is your bond ; better to die by the sword than live in chains ; dedication feeds mastery... I somewhat mirrored the Mandalorians' creed in my way of living. I wear a mythosaur's skull that is tattooed on my forearm... Because this is the Way. God, those Mandalorians are badasses.

I would like to see that Bo can right all her wrongs and then go on to being remembered for always fighting for whats right by the clan and now remembered for the worst points

[@stilloading5652]

Grogu riding a mythosaur would be sick

[@killians102]

I was wondering if that was the Mythosaur when I saw it. I do hope it was!

[@CookinBurgers110]

That’s how tv works. They mentioned it being a myth right before it was shown. What else would it have been?

[@tallonmetroids271]

The first thing out of my mouth when I saw it was "Holy fuck, that's a fucking Mythosaur! Fuck yeah!"

[@TekTr0niK]

Din Djarin wasn't pulled under the water by the Mythosaur. He stepped off a ledge into the super deep end of the pool wearing full beskar plate armor and no jet pack. He sank like a stone. All their commotion woke the sleeping Mythosaur. It literally just swims away after they pass it.

[@Terror_Official]

Judging by how far out into the cave she found him, it makes little sense that he plummeted straight down and forward somehow (water did not seem to have any current, let alone a strong enough one for that). While it could be just poor cinematography, it's more likely some smaller creature dragged him under, amphibious or aquatic, and when it noticed the Mythosaur it dropped Din. That way he lands out further in the cave, long enough for Bo to take a while to find him, and still has the Mythosaur fast sleep. I agree with the latter half of what you said though.

[@TheMancalorian]

'This is the way' I have spoken!

[@papabaer6069]

Looks like I'm late to this party... Din wasn't dragged down by the mythosaur... He just didn't realize the waters were deep and his beskar weighed him down... Or am I wrong? I just don't see it dragging him down then leaving him be, then settling back down and closing his eyes.

[@davidsmith7962]

This Is The Way!!

[@azikiwe12]

You said “he was violently dragged underwater”by the Mythosaur. I don’t think that was the case. I think he just fell and sunk fast due to the weight of his armor. Although I do agree that would be an excessive speed…. Lol

[@RARDingo]

A union of the creeds through a union of Din & Bo

[@stileopard1159]

I also think, that it's not Din, who's reffered "The Mandalorian" to, it's actually Grogu, as he will become the next mandalorian ruler.

[@kyleemery2798]

With those tusks it kind of looks like an ultralisk from Starcraft

[@SamanthaVimes]

Rivals? Or destined to join together and heal at least one of the schisms between Mandalorean factions? You have the continuity of rule in her, but the continuity of tradition in him, and Grogu brings the power of the Force. \
