​@@willfilmon182 I agree...on the surface it seemed abit hard to believe Jecki could hold her own when the other Jedi went down so quickly. But ofc the padawan level Obi-Wan Kenobi defeated Darth Maul by himself when the combo of Qui-Gon and Obi-Wan (as well as the solo fight with just Qui-Gon and Maul) was unable to defeat Maul. So I wonder if the original Jedi were so thrown off by the brutality of the Sith that they just weren't prepared while Jecki had watched it all go down and was more mentally prepared to put up a stronger fight? But yeah, I agree that it was strange that Jecki did so well in the fight.

I think Mae flipped because after threatening to reveal what she knows about her Master, Qimir kills Kennaca then reveals himself. That takes away her bargining chip, sets her up for the murder and sets up his killing spree to protect himself. Mae realises this then tries to adjust to the new situation he created.

I think Yord's confusion about the moths is probably because he's shaken, as a Jedi in this period he's used to sorta strutting round being one of if not the most knowledgeable and powerful person in most rooms, that had just been stripped right away from him and one of the main threads of this show has been how arrogant and pompous the Jedi are in this period, so yeah after seeing the little bit of the fight that he saw, as well as him no doubt being able to sense the other Jedi dying the whole time he's rattled since he (as well as the other Jedi present) was not prepared to be caught on the back foot to that degree. I also get the feeling Qimir (not sure how to spell it) is more a Maul or a Dooku than a Sidious, I suspect his master is gonna be one of the mothers from the coven, just because there were references to him sharing some abilities with them, could be wrong but I definitely get that feeling.

I have a hard time believing that Qimir's helmet actually does anything against mind tricks and such. Even without the helmet, Qimir is likely too strong-willed for Sol to get into his head. Kylo Ren can't do it to Rey, and she barely even knew what she was doing. It took Anakin, Obi-Wan, and Mace Windu just to get into Cad Bane's head, and it still didn't even really work, it just tortured him, and while he's a Duros, he's still not Force Sensitive either. On the Star Wars Explained aftershow for this episode, there was the suggestion that because it's not a direct face to face interaction, it would be harder to focus if you even attempted to do anything. Technically the Force allows you to choke people across space, but being in a holographic conversation with the visual will help, and even making the choking motion with your fingers will also assist in manifesting your desires, so say there is some kind of mind battle between Sol and Qimir, it will be easier if Sol has a face to look into. This is only a theory though. Qimir is likely just playing with everyone, taunting and even running away from a final blow just to chase someone else and keep them all off balance. There's also likely no real symbolism behind Jecki's death, but it's definitely a stab in each lung and then even one through the trachea, so if anything, it's a rather quick death because she likely can't breath. She's a Human-Thaleen hybrid, so whatever alien phisiology she has, it's still very likely vital organs were struck and she died quickly. If her death with three stabbings is indicitive of anything though, it's a commentary on how lightsaber stabbings don't hold as much weight as they once did. Placement is key, but Qimir using the Shoto Lightsaber and getting her not only in vital spots, but multiple times, too, was to really strike a blow to the audience that one of the main characters died, it wasn't just going to be the cannon fodder that was expected. And then with Yord, two were down, and he wasn't even killed with a weapon, just good old fashioned tactical blocks that lead to a position for a snapping of the neck. I think next week is likely to be the flashback although there's a lot of talk of how episodes 3 and 7 have the same director, which leads fans to think that 7 is the flashback, and I can't deny that. At the same time, Payton Reed directed the Ice Spider episode and then the Finale in Mandalorian Season 2, so you don't have to have very similar types of stories to be the director of two episodes. Whatever episode eit ends up being, the flashback will probably be called Choices or Decisions as that would be the opposite of Destiny, which is often used in Star Wars to mean as one's fate, and fate is predetermined. Osha was given a decision that altered her destiny, but it was through a series of others' choices and decisions. I suppose it's also possible the episode could be called Manipulation. Qimir clearly knows way too much, he could have orchestrated certain things to happen in secret that are then blamed on the Jedi, the Jedi react in a way that they are ashamed of, and the Coven dies; so many uncertainties. It's a heck of a time discussing the potential directions this show is going to head, and that's been my favorite part of the series over watching it. The show hasn't been bad, however it hasn't been as gripping as it could be. Episode 5 was incredible though, and it is likely in part because of that slower build up over the previous episodes, but even just seeing the character interactions here has been so much better, too, because it lead to so much more speculation.

@MCLegoboy

Ай бұрын

@@AbitofEverything4U It depends on if the episode is complete flashback, or if they have some stuff happening in the present. Part of why I also suggested Manipulation is that perhaps Qimir is maipulating events. Sol has manipulated Osha by concealing the full truth of what happened that day. Mae could have been possessed (ie. manipulated) into acting the way she did with that fire. Freedom feels like it could be a possible title for another episode, maybe even the Finale because everything will have finally been finished. If Qimir survives, he's likely killed everyone else and he's free to do as he pleases. If the Jedi stop him, they'll believe that Freedom has been secured for the Galaxy. Knowing the truth also sets Mae and Osha free from being manipulated. I'm usually never this active in speculation, but there's something about the Acolyte that's really getting to me. It's far from my favorite show, but it has really got me thinking about what could happen next since it's a mystery. I'm usually more just go with the flow and at worst rationalize what I just saw than try to piece together what future installments will be.

Episode 6 could be called freedom, that would be opposite of destiny and match what Qimir and the witches wanted

Good point...Sol doesn't know Bazil's language, so it's gonna be interesting to see what Bazil comes up with to communicate with Sol. Would a game of charades work?

He is a stranger. Qimir was just a cover.

@AbitofEverything4U

Ай бұрын

Yep...I think that's a great theory!

My big theory: Sol is the master, since he and the two girls and bazil are now the only ones that know of the sith. I don't know why he would do those, though. Beyond that, I'm not 100% sure there will be a master. Qimir is already called a master, and a master of a master can be complicated for the average viewer. Your number one question is that qimir has a master, but this hasn't been commented on in show. Also, I love the robot flashlight guy, I hope nothing bad happens to him.

Jedi can use it but the technique is ancient and lost to time but not for the Sith. The Sith have knowledge of many force abilities that the Jedi forgot about.

yord forgetting about the moths is honestly crazy. do they think this is gonna be the first episode people watch? The amount of handholding sometimes is a little insulting to the viewer

@AbitofEverything4U

Ай бұрын

Yeah, from an in-universe standpoint, I suspect Yord was just frazzled by all that had occurred in the battle and he simply forgot about the umbramoths. But from an irl standpoint, the writers assumed it was we the viewer that forgot about the moths and that they needed to remind us. And honestly, that's a bit strange, since the months did appear in the "previously on" segment. I mean, in the end, it's a small thing, but I did think it was pretty weird writing.

I still think Qimir is working together with mother Koril for Darth Plagueis, I think he was Sol's original padawan, who was there and saw what the Jedi did, I think after the fire start the jedi blamed the witches of controling Mae and training her to be a Sith, the witches deny and attack, in the fight Sol kills the Mother of the twins, what leds to an all out brawl that leds to the death of all the witches, he them goes to save Osha and lies to her, Qimir is left behind in the planet and it's pressumed dead, that's when he meets Mother Koril, and they are both recruted by Plagueis, along with a young Mae, Qimir and Koril are kept hiddem from Mae, but manipulate her for her entire life so she can become a Sith, due to her being one half of the force dyad created using the force itself, she is believed be Plagueis to be one of the most powerfull force users, Plagueis end goal is have Mae (or Osha) as his aprentice, because of their power, that's my theory, Qimir is the lower boss, Koril is the middle one, and Plagueis is the final boss.

Gotta give them credit for killing off both Jecki and Yord.

The first half of this episode was my favorite yet. Then the second half was my least favorite. So many writing issues. I wish this was separate from Star Wars and just was its own thing. It wouldn’t have to deal with the canon then. It doesn’t feel like Star Wars to me anyways despite having all the trappings of it. Andor felt way more like Star Wars to me.

@@AbitofEverything4U Usually the writing issues are self-contained within the episode. I agree about withholding judgement on the larger questions until the series is done.

​@@M3333 Agreed...there have definitely been moments where I was very surprised by someone's actions (especially Mae), but I do think upon reflection that her decision not to let the Jedi arrest her this episode was due to her seeing Kelnacca killed. It means she would be blamed for yet another murder and also that if the Sith Master was powerful enough to kill Kelnacca, then he was likely going to kill her next. She realized he was unstoppable enough that she felt her best bet was to apologize and beg his mercy. So when Jecki went to arrest her, the last thing Mae wanted was to be restrained as she wouldn't be able to fight back against the Master if needed. But...I totally agree, that at first viewing I was like "what on earth is going on with Mae!"
