Damnit. I come here to discuss star wars, not sports ball!

@fac, jokes aside, he's the only reason I'm tempted to watch Acolyte. He was great in that other show.

I had to google a little harder and now I see what the comment meant. I know next to nothing about that other show, and even less about Sportsball, but I do agree.

For real that other show was really really good and that character was consistently one of the best parts.   And I think the originally proposed premise has merit.

I've heard great things about it but it's one of those shows that I couldn't get into, though I tried. Community was another. The way people talk about those shows, I do feel like I'm missing out on something but eh, my taste is my taste.

Spoiler
Acolyte theory stuff that's probably correct

But I do wonder if that character being revealed as the Master is something that'll happen next week, since this show likes to build up a mystery only to solve it soon after.

@ru1977 Sorry I sent you down a Google rabbit-hole RU! But I also recommend the series I obliquely referenced.

I wonder if the Master really wants both twins to be on team bad guys, given he went out of his way not to kill Osha. Or at least wants to keep her around as a backup plan.

I also am getting suspicious of Jecki Lon as being on team bad guys...

@fac Heh, no worries. And truth be told, you've made me consider giving it another chance.

Spoiler
My theory

So, one way to kill a Jedi without using a weapon is of course force choking them, sure. Lightning, also a solid one. But another way could be turning them to the dark side. And maybe this will enrage people further, but what if Mae turns Osha by getting her sister to kill her? And Osha emerges as the acolyte?

AND she is knighted as... Darth Plagueis? heh heh.

@ru1977 I also have that idea that

Spoiler
speculation
Osha ends up on the darkside - but could she end up "undercover" in place of Mae at some point as part of the Jedi trying to learn more about who they are facing? Or maybe the goal to turn Osha and Mae is merely the bait?

I like the idea of "killing" a Jedi by turning them.

I do expect Darth Plagueis to appear, which means the person that Mae thinks is the Master may actually be his Apprentice... but not yet Palpy...

I hate that they made Plagueis one of those stupid Banking Clan morons.  Ooo, skinny bald fucker; such a cool alien design!   LAME.

@fac

Spoiler
More speculation

Well there's precedent, like how Darth Vader killed Anakin to become a Sith. 

The twin thing could be interesting because it seems like they already did the 'reveal' that have twin characters would pay off, but yeah, what if there's ANOTHER way the twin thing will pay off? The Frailty twist.

And yeah, if Teeth is the apprentice I won't be surprised. Seems like the apprentice is the one who does acolytes anyway.

Sidenote, Darth Teeth is the new Baby Yoda as far as them waiting too long to tell the real name and the dumb one will stick.

Just going to say -  was bummed that Kelnacca's entire and only appearance in this episode was as a corpse.  

 

I now demand an entire adjunct series, Tales of Kelnacca, as amends for this grave injustice.

@panthercult at least we still have more flashback with Kelly.

Was there a point to the ep3 ending where Kelnacca yelled at whoever those two dudes were?  Do we expect that to come back in the next 4 eps?

just speculation

I am beginning to think that the Sith master is mother Koril

@adrienveidt I don't. I took it as just showing where Kelly is and what Kelly is up to these days.

Seems like 3 of the 4 Jedi that came to that planet had isolated themselves in various ways.
