As I and plenty of have guessed, Mae’s Grasp is Qimir, a Sith. Whereas that was no nice shock, the remainder of the episode was and left me on the sting of my seat. We picked up proper the place final week’s episode ended (and I didn’t have excessive hopes as I used to be bored out of my thoughts final week). My fears have been rapidly put to relaxation.
Osha awakens to the Jedi getting murdered by the Grasp (later to be revealed as Qimir). This lightsaber battle was nice. We had an ideal mixture of martial arts and use of the Power. It appears like all is misplaced till Grasp Sol lastly seems and battles the Grasp.
Your entire episode was nothing however battles. Sol orders Yord to take Osha to security again on the ship as he tries to determine who the Grasp is. It’s clear they’ve some familiarity between them – one thing that also stays a thriller by the top of the episode.
Jecki in the meantime battles Mae in an try and arrest her. The younger Padawan succeeds in getting the cuffs on Mae however is stopped by the Grasp. She battles him utilizing two lightsabers and it’s for lack of a greater phrase – epic. Sol arrives to help and you’ve got two on one with the Grasp additionally making an attempt to seize a fleeing Mae to punish her for betraying him.

Sadly, Jecki is finally killed by the Grasp which sends Sol right into a match of rage. Osha convinces Yord to return and assist and Yord then will get his neck snapped. I didn’t count on us to lose these two characters however it was a superb choice because the viewers has develop into connected to them emotionally. Throughout the battle with Jecki Grasp’s helmet is knocked off revealing his identification as Qimir.
He appears very upset with Sol and explains he’s a Sith and needs his personal pupil – an Acolyte. These Jedi have by no means confirmed the existence of the Sith so that is very jarring for everybody. Simply as Sol was about to finish Qimir, Osha stops him. Osha places her flashlight on Qimir’s again so the moths can take him. Osha begins to query Sol however Mae stuns him. Osha and Mae have the worst household reunion with Mae besting Osha after which chopping her hair and taking her place with Sol when he awakes. We see Qimir free himself and use his Power energy to heal Osha.
This episode felt like traditional Star Wars. A complete episode devoted to lightsaber battles? Signal me up! Sol misplaced his entire workforce, has no “Mae” in his thoughts and shall be returning empty handed. He should reply many questions. I’m very excited to see what occurs subsequent.
