Ashoka was often overseen by Plo Koon before she was apprenticed to Anakin, so this could be a similar situation.

    One thing about Kelleran - if you notice, he actually picks up one of the lightsabers from the floor of the elevator. When Grogu went into the elevator, one jedi was shot dead as the door closed. Makes it so horrible for Grogu, escaping in an elevator with a corpse, going who knows where, and who knows if he'll see an enemy or an ally on the other side. When the door opens, Kelleran picked up the lightsaber of the fallen jedi. So it's likely Kelleran didn't default to dual-wielding; his primary style likely used one single blade. But the fact he could so easily shift into two blades is a testiment of his skill.

    My sister noticed something wild about Grogu's rescue. He and Kelleran Beq escaped on a royal Naboo ship the only person on Coruscant with a ship like that would be Padme! That means Padme, when she saw the Jedi temple burning she immediately put into motion a plan to save the jedi probably by contacting them secretly and telling them that if they could get to a Naboo ship they could get to safety and because she had diplomatic immunity they could get away. She had put in place a plan that insured the safety and future for her kids. So when she went to Mustafar she wasn't surprised there was a jedi with her, she was surprised it was Obi-wan.

    How would Padme know what is happening? All she can see is a fire and she found what happened in the morning when Anakin told her. Bail upon finding out didn’t even tell Padme his ally. Instead instantly leaving to go look to see if Yoda and other senior members survived. In the novelisation of ROTS which even Disney said is canon says that the 501st blocked the comms to the temple before the attack. So the Jedi couldn’t have reached out to ask for help or Padme / Jar Jar or Bail reach them via comms. Which is why Bail went there to investigate himself.

And since hardly anyone knew about Grogu and I can imagine certain instructions were left for him to get him away from the temple. That is not the issue. The issue is the Naboo involved and him knowing exactly where to go. As it contradicts established canon. Now if they had him escape the Tempe and head to the lower levels to Coruscant to steal a ship and then leave the planet then that is fine. Also his “planned” escape is purely down to chance. If those first set of Clone Troopers didn’t land there by the elevator to try and stop him then he wouldn’t have had a route away from the temple. He would have been cut off by the troops coming around the corner which even he knew he could not keep at bay as he chooses that time to escape. But without the speeder there is no escape.

    @theory I think he originally not using 2 sabers (correct me if i am wrong). If we check the sequence, when the elevator opens, Beck go down and pick up the blue saber from the elevator floor. As he noticed Clone troops coming in to the area, he had no choice but to use his and that saber right away as he is alone with grogu. Imo he main saber is the green one.

    I always thought Jar Jar’s character was maybe a bit too silly, but when my son was old enough to watch the prequels and always giggled at Jar Jar to now being a teenager I find him snd myself still doing Jar Jar imitations with the voice. So credit to Ahmed for being so memorable with the character that we still reference him 25 years later. I was super pumped when I realized this was him. I kinda thought Theory would have been more excited!!

    It was cool, but no it was not the best thing, in fact we're halfway through season three and nothing has happened but this so what are you comparing it too? Luke and Ahsoka? Why? Just because this actor was once bullied now you will pretend he has more of an impact than Luke fucking Skywalker? Nah bud stop pretending to make yourself feel good. Yes, it's cool he got a part as a badass Jedi, but this over exaggeration isn't making you more morally superior. or a better person/ Lying to make someone feel good isn't good it's evil.

And now he seems like a really descent character! Loved Kelleran fighting style! Precise, proficient, no unnecessary moves. Wow! I'm also much more into Beq and his story with Grogu than the rest of the Mando ep. 3 season. More!

    One minor thing, despite being proficient at wielding two lightsabers, he only seemed to have one when he found Gorgu. The second lightsaber (the blue one) he picked up from the dead Jedi in the elevator. I'm curious about why he only normally wielded one if he was so skilled at using two. Though I suppose Anakin was the same way since we see him using two lightsabers expertly in his fight with Barriss in season 5 of Clone Wars.

    I think a lot of people are forgetting that in the very first episode of the Mandalorian, Grogu is being protected by a rather large band of Nikto. Not the Empire. Not Moff Gideon. Common gangsters. And according to Quin, they've been holding him there for a long while. Long enough that Quin got sick of all the bounty hunters swarming his cozy planet. Kelleran could still be alive, having entrusted Grogu to a group of non--force sensitives thinking they could hide him better, perhaps while he run distraction and diverts the Empire's attention towards himself, making them think he still has the youngling.

    Yoda said in Empire to Luke “for 800 years have i trained Jedi” Grogus already 55 (ish) so i assume he needs to be master status in 45 for the Yoda line to make sense. Which then means Grogu needs a pretty substantial evolution in the next few years to get out of this cute, baby youngling phase…

    Hey Theory! Do you remember how the visual design for Quinlan Voss in The Clone Wars was inspired by that random background extra on Tatooine in The Phantom Menace? Later, it was added to the canon that this same extra was indeed Quinlan Voss and he was on an undercover mission in Mos Espa, hence why he couldn't blow cover to help Qui Gon. Well now that Ahmed Best has appeared in live action as Keleran Beq, do you think they will have to add a similar backstory to Best's cameo in the sports bar in Attack of the Clones?

    Honestly. From the backstory given of Kelleran being on a game show, it would make sense that a bunch of Jedi are like "Get the youngling to Kelleran" being that Kelleran would have more experience with Younglings, maybe Kelleran just had happened to be the most qualified Jedi for the job that wasn't already killed. Very intrigued to see his role in the galaxy, I really think they just threw Grogu with a random jedi just to show like "I don't care who shows up, get this kid out of here".
