The dog fight scene was really well done! I'm glad they're not cheaping out on any of the ship scenes. The empire really likes to bomber Mando property..World building Coruscant was cool, I'm sure there was a few easter eggs sprinkled in there, but I felt the doc arc should have been a 2 part. This episode introducing him, having him pitch his ideas to the NR, and failing. Then the next episode him sneaking out and doing at least one experiment before the betrayal. Also no one would let her stay in that room alone!!I think Bo was riding that nice dopamine high from being welcomed back and no long exiled. Will be interesting to see how this plays out.

The ingenuity with the ship combat here and in Andor is quite good. I’m glad they’re bringing that back to Star Wars since it was very poor in the sequels.

Kinda like how they united (future Mandalore) Kryze with her clan. Thought, she'll need to conquer Mythosaur first, and then conquer Mando's clan, but it went otherwise.But doctor's arc was a bit weak, hard not to comapre with Andor^both visually and storywise.

I honestly don’t understand the point of the doctor’s story. If they need his expertise, then why turn on him so quickly? If they don’t need his expertise, then what was the point? It made no sense to me. I was expecting them to trick him into continuing his experiments to help out the empire without him knowing it. But what did they actually accomplish here? If they wanted him silenced, I’m sure there were much easier and less convoluted ways to do that. Hell, just push him off the train.

I don't think the New Republic turned on him, it was just the woman that did. I would suspect she's still tied to Moff Gideon somehow and it was his order to fry his brain.

That’s who I meant. If she wanted him silenced, then why go through all of that? If they needed something from him first, then why silence him so fast? It didn’t make sense.

i really liked the episode until i reflected back on it

The doctor subplot seemed to be interesting but it amounted to nothing

Like if it did, i wouldn’t mind it at all but we didn’t learn anything about Gideon or the New Republic or anything other than one of the reformed individual who used to work for Gideon isn’t a nice person

they could’ve done a lot of things with the doctor plot like have a dialogue on why he was working on cloning Grogu etc to make it worthwhile

Not even visual cues, but none of the dialogue in that plot mattered and the doctor ended up dead so it’s not like his journey mattered since he will be a absent for future episodes

These episodes are so boring as of now, it was embarrassing for a show called the Mandalorian feature a protagonist who never been to mandalore.

I’m just waiting for boba to return because this btec boba has no USP

how many times can disney kill boba on a television screen?

They’ve only killed him once but the sarlac explanation made a lot of sense. So really he hasn’t died. Palpatine coming back is an example of bad writing.

What about Bib Fortuna, Max Rebo, and 8-D8 coming back?

I thought the idea was that she turned it up to wipe the doctors recent memory. So he awakes under the impression he still works for the empire and gets back to that cloning tech
