The fifth episode of The Mandalorian’s third season features a surprising twist. The final minutes leave viewers with entirely new questions, which promises interesting plot development in the second half of the season.
Attention! The text contains spoilers for episode 5 of the mandalorian season 3.
The latest episode of The Mandalorian presents fans with an unexpected twist that could affect the remaining episodes of the third season. It turns out that the New Republic transport carrying Moff Gideon has been attacked and the body of Din Djarin’s former adversary is missing.. It can only mean one thing: Gideon has been released. Who is behind all this ?
Moff Gideon is back, but who’s behind his release?
It looks like it won’t be long before Din Djarin faces off against Moff Gideon again. A transport carrying the important prisoner has been attacked and the only clue is a piece of beskar., known as the “Iron Mandalorian”, among others. Does this mean the Mandalorians could be behind Gideon’s release? After all, he is responsible for the Great Purge of Mandalore.
However, it should be remembered that during the period of the Galactic Empire some Mandalorians served in the ranks of the Imperial Army, and their distinctive feature was white armor. The third season of Rebels portrays a group of Mandalorian warriors who fought faithfully for the Empire, with Mandalore’s moon Concordia as their base of operations.
Perhaps this group remained loyal to the Empire even after its fall. And it’s possible they were behind Moff Gideon’s exit.who thanks to this situation would win strong allies who are masters of fun.
However, another option is possible. Moff Gideon had a considerable reserve of beskar. Perhaps while he was in captivity, those loyal to him finished designing a new generation of dark stormtroopers.whose armament is made precisely of beskar alloy.
This is suggested by a fragment left on the ship. The Mandalorians didn’t use the beskar for weapons of such high caliber, and spear combat would have been decidedly impractical on the ship’s narrow deck.. The piece of beskar, however, is large enough to be a fragment of droid armor. If Gideon has dark beskar stormtroopers in his sights, then Din and the other Mandalorians will have a hard time..
Confirmation of either theory will have to wait. The creators ended the fifth episode with an impossible-to-ignore cliffhanger. It must be admitted that the third season is gaining momentum.
