The third chapter of The Mandalorian season 3 toys with the show’s structure and expands its scope to deal with a major plot thread of the first two seasons.
Much like Pershing, these guys appear to be genuinely sorry, though one has to wonder whether they signed up voluntarily back in the glory days of the Empire, unlike him. Katy O’Brian’s character, who joins the conversation, is harder to read, and we can’t help but suspect she’s not done with Gideon’s long-term plans.
Individualism appears to be nearly as repressed as before, and the New Republic machine marches forward without taking advantage of some of the Empire’s technological innovations. This greatly frustrates Pershing, who’s just taking care of old files while he could be saving lives by putting his knowledge and previous work to good use.We’d also like to take a small moment to freak out about the “infinity stone popsicles” that he and the shady officer enjoy during a Coruscanti fair.
If all the prequel love in this episode wasn’t enough to rile up Star Wars extremists, a riff on Supreme Leader Snoke’s musical theme – already used in Chapter 12 – makes an even more transparent return here. All this cloning subplot is clearly leading to the underexplained “Palpatine has returned” business, something that was already quite obvious with all the focus on Grogu and his M-count .
Now, the New Republic doctors will try to suppress “Imperial indoctrination” with a mind flayer, which looks anything but pleasant and ethical. But wait, there’s a twist within the twist! Elia, who’s quickly earning the new government’s trust, ups the intensity of the process; this could either completely erase his knowledge of everything that has transpired and his previous research, or… turn him back to the Empire.
