But he’s no match for Mando and soon he is unmanned, the darksaber clattering to the side. Clashes leave the staff glowing red, and Gideon attacks relentlessly. Mando and Gideon engage in a perilous duel, Mando with his beskar staff and Gideon with the darksaber. And the moment Mando has his back turned to Gideon, he attacks. Oh, also there’s another line from Gideon about “bringing order back to the galaxy,” another not so subtle hint to the birth of the First Order. Despite his alliance with Bo, Mando’s first concern is Grogu and he’s willing to let Gideon go with the darksaber if it means that the little guy is safe. He stands over little Grogu with his darksaber drawn. Forgot about those thrusters in their feet, didn’t you, Mando?Īs Bo, Koska, Fennec, and Cara make it to an empty bridge, Mando arrives at the bridge to find that Gideon is one step ahead. Before the relentless forces can break through the door, he slaps open the airlock and bye-bye troopers… for now. After endless punches to the face, which without the helmet would have surely turned Din Djarin’s face into mush, Mando finally stabs the trooper through the neck and it powers down. Say a prayer for that beskar, because it can take a mighty beating. Managing to lock out all but one dark trooper, Mando engages in a perilous fight against a singular dark trooper. We barely got to see these troopers in action when they took Grogu, but the whole scene oozes ominous doom. The lead up to this builds the best kind of anticipation. As much as I love watching Mando fight with his armor, it’s equally enjoyable to watching this group cut through stormtroopers like they’re nothing.īefore Mando can get to the cargo bay in time, the dark troopers are ready to go. While Mando makes his way to the brig for Grogu, the four woman assault squad is cleaning up against the stormtrooper forces. Unfortunately for Mando, Gideon is prepared and he has the dark troopers turned on. With Boba Fett on their tail in a mock attack, the ship barely makes it into the cruiser’s launch tube before the team starts their assault. Bo makes it clear that she wants to take on Moff Gideon, but Cara emphasizes that he should be taken alive because he has valuable intel. They’ll head to the bridge to retrieve the darksaber in the meanwhile. Keeping that in mind, the plan is that Bo-Katan, Koska, Fennec, and Cara head in for the first assult and act as a misdirection for Mando to get the kid. Pershing is nice enough to inform us that there’s a small army of 3rd generation dark troopers on board that only need a few minutes to power up. Onboard the ship, the team plans their infiltration. He is my only priority.” Oh Din, I’m going to miss this. “Help me rescue the Child and you can have whatever you want. But none of that matters to Mando, he is fine with Bo tagging along to reclaim the darksaber if it means that she will be his backup. They wouldn’t know about Boba’s unique origins, but it is a nice nod to the fact that both Bo and Koska would recognize a clone trooper’s voice due to their history. Bo and Koska recognize Boba’s voice and assume he is a clone trooper in a Mandalorian suit. Of course, that doesn’t happen until after a bit of an ego contest. Informing Bo that they’re going after Moff Gideon and have his location, a deal is struck. Not sure what happened to Simon Kassianides‘ Axe Woves but I would have loved an Agents of SHIELD reunion between Kassianides and Ming-Na Wen. With Pershing captured, Mando and Boba find Bo-Katan ( Katee Sackhoff) and Koska Reeves ( Sasha Banks aka Mercedes Varnado). Pershing is a clone engineer from the obnoxiously zealous pilot (what is with people being proud of genocide?). After docking on the ship, we learn that Dr. This episode opens with Boba Fett’s ship Slave I chasing Dr. Last episode, we saw Mando reunited with an old pal and finally get the coordinates that will lead him to Moff Gideon. Though, as Din said to his adoptive son as he left with Luke Skywalker (!!!), they will meet again. In another fantastic episode directed by Peyton Reed, who also directed “ Chapter 10: The Passenger,” we reach the conclusion of Grogu and Din Djarin’s story. But before we talk about that, we need to talk about The Mandalorian Season 2 Finale! First off, for those who don’t enjoy jiving to Ludwig Göransson‘s score at the end of the credits, stick around!! There is a post-credits scene that leaves me with far more questions than answers. The finale of Season Two of The Mandalorian. There have been predictions, there have been conspiracies.
