Here are 5 questions we have after this week's surprisingly strange episode of TheMandalorian.
Coming off its game-changing second episode, The Mandalorian season 3 has returned this week with one of the Disney+ show’s strangest and most surprising installments to date. Picking up after the events of last week’s The Mines of Mandalore, episode 3 of The Mandalorian season 3 spends its runtime following not only Bo-Katan and Din Djarin , but also Dr. Pershing and Elia Kane , two supporting figures from the show’s past seasons.
Why not? Is it because Bo-Katan is still struggling to come to terms with what she saw? Or is she trying to decide whether or not she wants to share her new secret with Din, her biggest competitor for the throne of Mandalore? So far, The Mandalorian season 3 has done an exceptional job of keeping Bo-Katan’s motivations unclear, and her decision to keep her mythosaur sighting to herself only continues that trend.
Why did Elia Kane betray Dr. Pershing? For the bulk of its runtime, The Convert follows Dr. Pershing and Elia Kane, two former Imperials, as they attempt to reintegrate themselves into society as part of a New Republic-run rehabilitation program. The process doesn’t go particularly well for Pershing, who is pushed by Elia to continue pursuing the very cloning experiments that once made him so important to Giancarlo Esposito’s villainous Moff Gideon.
Has Dr. Pershing’s mind truly been wiped? When Dr. Pershing is hooked up to the New Republic’s torture device he exclaims in fear that his mind is going to be wiped by the machine. He is unconvincingly told that won’t actually happen by his New Republic captors, but Elia’s decision to turn the machine’s power all the way up certainly suggests that Pershing’s experience with the Mind Flayer is going to have lasting consequences.
