Interesting that Osha brings up Qimir's scar on his back and it's in the same episode we see Vernestra's light whip saber appear. Makes me wonder if she was originally his master a very long time ago and something caused a tragic rift.
@@ECA2 for Vernestra, she seems to be aware of what really happened to Osha and May's coven but is helping Sol keep it secret from the High Council. Hopefully we get the explanation (or another piece of it) next week.
i rather like that they show how the jedi dont really have attachment to dead bodies, once their owners have become one with the force. remember, yoda spoke of bodies as "crude flesh". here vernestra spoke of burial like a formality or an afterthought, not something she had an emotional investment in.
@@HereAfterNow yes. and this is at a mature age and as a jedi master as opposed to being a hot-blooded young padawan. one might guess how much of that intense feeling sol had to suppress when he was younger.
teach and corrupt can be interchangeable...depending on one's point of view. teach for one can be corruption to another, and vice versa. it's why the / is there.
Only know what is RIGHT from what is WRONG is all that matters. If ONE side "teaches" something that's been taught for ages, then the other SIDE comes in with all NEW "teachings" that are massively the opposite, possibly even seen as morally WRONG by that one side. WHO is "right" and who is Wrong!? Is the right side wrong? Or is the left side in the right? If one can be "taught" something and they grow up fairly balanced, they never ended up regretting what they were taught, INFACT they went into adulthood, learning more about the world but never actually saw the particular side of "teaching" they were given as being wrong. Then does that mean they were "taught" what was truly *Good* ?? But if another one, was taught, but they grew up questioning everything, perhaps they did not have a balanced upbringing, maybe their mind became lost, they became confused; maybe they were actually "taught" something questionable, that was morally WRONG, but at that time challenged the other side's "teachings", and at that time they saw what they were taught to be the NEW "New". Or even possibly - "the New Normal". So that side they were on and "taught" by, was basically trying to Normalize what was really Not *Normal*. What if that particular side was actually trying to *Blur* the nature of what is simply *GOOD* and *BAD*. Sometimes "one's point of view" can be that there is NO *concept* of GOOD or BAD. "Right" or "wrong". Such individuals can seek to muddy, blur the lines, make it very "Grey". Is doing this GOOD!? Is that Right? To confuse, seems deceptive tbh. Surely, if there is truly NO GOOD or BAD, "Right or Wrong" then does that then mean anything goes?? Just do whatever thou shalt? Some individuals believe this, some seek to free themselves from what they see as constraints, control. they feel empowered being allowed to do whatever they want. I'm just asking questions, myself personally I have a moral compass, i'm not perfect far from it indeed. But I know what is Right from what is Wrong. What I find dangerous is by keep constantly challenging certain things, like for example, if we were to decide to question WHY the Colour - "Blue" is even called - *Blue*, and we then decide we want to change that word, and call it something else entirely, to please and satisfy ourselves in some way; make us feel like WE are "Correcting" something, a age-old concept, that we either find to be outdated or even just "Wrong". What then do WE call that colour?? Whatever "word" we choose to replace the word - "Blue" for that specific *colour*, and we then tell everyone else, "right this colour WILL now be called this ......" and anyone who does Not start calling it what WE say, is a very Bad person and shall be punished. Is that Right to do something like that?? Sounds like a very "Authoritarian" attitude to me, infact it sounds straight up FACIST. When you "confuse" it allows you to strip down one thing, and replace it with whatever NEW thing you deem to be "Good" or "right" or whatever just simply makes sense to YOU. One way we can truly determine and understand what is TRULY *Good* and "Right", is to take many individuals from each group, culture, walk of life, race, age etc. And all sit down and "debate", learn each of those Individual's views, and from there see how many all share the same or common belief and understanding of what is indeed GOOD and RIGHT. But when you just have ONE specific group, a small group that all think the same and share the same views, and this small group enfore their ways and beliefs onto the rest, everyone else; and that group basically tell everyone - "If you don't accept what we say, and Conform, you shall be punished, or we will simply just Blacklist you, destroy you or banish you." That is Draconian, it is corrupt.
@@RaikenXion you just went around in circles in that word salad with caps lol. basically you're conflating "right and wrong" with what you "like and dislike" or "agree and disagree with". consensus can be reached about codes of behaviour and pov but it's not always the way to go ("the earth is flat" was once a consensus, as was "slavery was acceptable"). even consensus evolves. also, talking of words as if they arent constructs and the invented label "blue" (or its equivalents in other languages) just dropped from the sky is nonsensical. consensus in language evolves as well. it's not even within a discussion of morality, just linguistics.
So many people keep interpreting it as him saying "I am a Sith", but Qimir never called himself a Sith. His exact words were "I have no name. But the Jedi like you might call me... Sith." First of all I don't think the "I have no name" was literal, but rather meant as "there is no description for what I am", and the second sentence was meant as "but to those Jedi that would have knowledge of such matters, the closest thing that fits would be a Sith".
osha and mae, strangely enough, have much more chemistry and necessary tension when they switched their respective "tutors". i guess that was intended :D also i like the grayness in sol here, and also the grayness in qimir. comedy bit with mae on the ship was good too and her wiping and adopting pip.
Yes, this is the point of their characters. Both twins were more or less captives of their respective mentors. Only now, with the shoes on the other feet, will the girls learn the truth about Brendock and themselves and unlock their true power. We feel more chemistry now because their new teachers actually have to try to seduce them over to their side instead of tossing them about like compliant damsels.
It's in the High Republic books Vernestra gets sick and has force visions when she goes through hyperspace and I think Qimir could be her former padawan Emry and he's using the dark side to slow down his aging Osha is turning to the dark side she's the real acolyte so this has been a sith and dark side story all along
Remember Episode 5 was so good because we had 4 episodes of story and character development. I've heard many fans say they wish every episode was like 5 or that they wish the first episode was like 5. I whole heartedly disagree. I like slow burns and build ups. I want to care about a character before they die. I like movies like The Good, The Bad and The Ugly. The slowest of slow burns but when Tuco starts running around in the cemetary and Ecstacy of Gold starts playing it's like the best orgasm anybody has ever had after courting someone, getting to know them, dancing with them outside the bedroom, then getting them into the bedroom and having that akward dance we all have and then meeting them in a special place that only human beings on planet Earth could ever know. I'm enjoying this show so much I want Leslye Headland to get a trilogy in the cinema. Chef's kiss.
This episode didn’t drag in my opinion. We needed to time to decompress after the events of episode 5. Everybody needed to grieve and process what happened. In fact, this episode might be the turning point as both Osha and Mae switched sides and both might actually turn from good to evil and vice versa.
Qimir's master is Vernestra Rwoh after seeing the scar on his back which matches to the lightsaber whip that she used to kill the Centipede like creature at Khofar. She is holding a secret that she could've have told the Jedi or didn't tell the Jedi. I am hoping episode 8 will give some more insight with the flashback story.
I’m starting to suspect that maybe Qimir/The Stranger isn’t the true lord of the Sith but rather an apprentice that failed to live up to the standards of the true master. Like he was a Jedi Youngling but somehow fell into the hands of the true Sith Lord. And he may actually be older than he looks because according to Palpatine his master Darth Plagueis he could influence the Force to prolong life, which would also explain why none of the Jedi recognized him.
I thought your comment on last week's episode about them leaving the bodies was odd because usually in crime situations the cops aren't in charge of discarding and investigating the bodies. Glad to see this episode answered that and had a seperate group looking into that
I find it funny when characters tell their motivation or what happens if there's discussions on force lore between characters people seem to hate that shit from what I've seen on twitter/x
I wondered if Sol knew the whole time that was not Osha or did he figure it out when he saw Mae holding Pip and the lights on Pip were red and not green like it was before when Osha had him(because when Mae reset Pip settings) @Themoviecouple
I feel next episode will play out as Dustin was explaining, im truly enjoying lee Jung jae performance man Sol is slowly looking like hes gonna snap but maybe once mae hears his side of his story and lean into following him
Sooo I still think Qimir ends up being the first Ren. Just now we know the reason he's so powerful is because he was probably Vernestra's padawan. And idk... he touched the darkness and she cut him down immediately, probably ruthlessly. As a former jedi, the sith would be his understanding of the dark side as well, but he doesn't really follow the sith dogma either. He wants "the power of two" which he probably knows sith do master + apprentice, but he doesn't call his pupil that. He says pupil, student, or acolyte. And "the power of two" specifically was the coven philosophy - joining power to make both stronger. The next step is "the power of many" hence I still think he's headed towards Ren and forming the knights.
Qimir is easily the master manipulator. He knows exactly where to push in order to trigger his desired outcome. I believe the planet will be the one Luke Skywalker was hiding on. It had a powerful dark side spot there and seems to fit thematically.
I don’t think she reset PIP, I think Basil put a different pip droid in front of her and his attack was to distract her into wanting to reset the droid in front of her. 🤷🏻♂️
I thought the Basil stuff was a little tone deaf to the rest of the episode, though I think he’s adorable. I do agree that this episode is all setup and not necessarily moving the plot on its own. But I’m really looking forward to the last two episodes
Great episode, I can't wait for the 7th flashback episode where we will learn what happened from the point of view of the Jedi 16 years ago. As for the plot, it was a good setup for the last two final episodes. The unnamed planet where Kimir was, in my opinion, may be the one used in the book by Darth Tenebrous and Darth Plagueis because of the mines on Cortosis, as we had, I can see in the episode that there was a vein of this metal on the wall. And that shot from inside the helmet reminded me that stormtroopers can barely see anything through their helmets. And with this helmet of his from Cordosis, it is also not good to see something similar to when the younglings are training, Luke trained Obi-Wan / Sabine trained Ahsoka / Rey then with the help of the Jedi scroll taught Leia from which she also learned force heal. So that the given individual concentrates mainly on strength and senses.
I agree with Wendy regarding the story pacing in this show, in fact that's the main problem I've had with it. I get the feeling we're only going to have a real sense of what it all means once we reach the very end and are able to look back; something which could very well be the intent of the show's creators, but at the same time could have been executed so much better than it has been up to this point. It's frustrating more than it is intriguing, which I don't think was the intent. The overall story might benefit from a rewatch once we (hopefully) have the answers, but that expectation shouldn't be set upon the audience's shoulders. As for that wiki (Wookie 😄) snippet regarding the cortosis-rich planet of Bal'demnic, I think you may have hit the nail on the head. It also supports my theory that Qimir/The Stranger is somehow connected to Darth Plagueis, possibly being his apprentice prior to Palpatine. Although I don't think there's enough time left to tell that story, it could be where they go in a second season if it gets renewed.
hi Dustin and wendy. I just watched this episode a few minutes ago, happy to watch your reaction to. This episode is very intense and only 2 more to go. Happy 4th of July. 🎆🎆🇺🇸
This is is hit or miss... some good parts, some really cool parts, and some that just doesnt seem to flow... but im here, waiting to see how they end the show because it can still be good
I think your analysis that this is a setup episode for a talking episode is part of the reason I didn't care for this one too much. I like the series overall, and I think the last two episodes could be really good, but this one definitely felt a bit undercooked to me.
Awful episode and series. Even Book of Boba Fett is a million times better than this show, and that's saying something because Book of Boba Fett was pretty bad
I have to disagree with you guys about the actor playing Sol. You could tell he’s struggling with speaking English. His acting is a bit forced; no subtlety and grace.
I wish that this show was almost entirely from the point of view of the Sith, but it feels like while Lucasfilm wanted that, Disney was too scared that a show about the villains of Star Wars wouldn’t reach as much of an audience as a show that was mostly about the Jedi.
The main problem I have with this show is Mae/Osha. Their motivations are all over the place. If Mae cares so much about her sister that she was willing to turn herself in, why did she leave her sister unconscious on a planet with dangerous animals and a evil jedi who is out to kill her? Why is Osha so pro jedi before and now she's trying on Darth Bortles helmet hours after trying to citizen arrest Mae?
Their motivations are not changing; people are reading them wrong. Mae's motivations are 1) Survival and 2) Reunification with Osha. Osha's motivation is Freedom. Their story is that everything in their lives has conspired against those goals. Only now, as they are finally about to learn the truth about what happened on Brendock will they be able to make decisions for themselves about what they really want. They are similar to Clarice Starling from The Silence of the Lambs who was only able to find the serial killer and rescue the girl after she came to terms with her own past trauma.
@@hoos3014 How is leaving Osha alone and unconscious on a planet she knows nothing about with an evil force user helping her reunify with Osha? This episode showed Mae trying to sneak up on Sol to stab him so she really doesn't care about what the "truth" is. I'll concede that I might have mixed up "motivations" and "actions", but Mae's actions aren't matching the motivations you claim she has. Also, if this show was written as well as Silence of the Lambs or even the TV show Hannibal, I wouldn't have problems with it.
@@sgrapness4678 Osha had *just* rejected Mae. Mae believes her sister is not ready for what she wants because the Jedi are an obstacle. Mae's new tactic is to expose Sol and the Brendock 4 for what she thinks they did 16 years ago. Which is why Sol stuns her before she can talk to anyone over the Holocom thing.
@@pw3462 Being generous, a story about a character's internal struggle is not common in Star Wars, so long time fans are struggling with how to interpret it. It most closely resembles what Luke went through in TLJ, and we know how that conversation went.
I want a good written show about Qimir without Mae and Osha who are really boring. HIs story is much more interesting....❤ Qimir and Sol are the only reasons for me to watch the show. Greetings from Germany💕 PS: I will dream about Darth Biceps and how I will join him everywhere he invites me...😅
Interesting that Osha brings up Qimir's scar on his back and it's in the same episode we see Vernestra's light whip saber appear. Makes me wonder if she was originally his master a very long time ago and something caused a tragic rift.
To paraphrase Obi-Wan, "Your powers of observation serve you well." My mind also went there when she used her lightwhip. She's hiding something also.
@@ECA2 for Vernestra, she seems to be aware of what really happened to Osha and May's coven but is helping Sol keep it secret from the High Council. Hopefully we get the explanation (or another piece of it) next week.
I think this is the leading theory as to who Qimir’s master was. The scars on his back are also uneven instead of a straight-ish line.
Yes!! She’s very suspicious and is looking more and more guilty imo
So Leslye Headland cast her wife as the big bad ? What a twist 😂
i’m loving the new dynamics. qimir never showed mae his face but is letting osha see him naked.

I thought this series was 8 episodes long?
Do you like any Michael bay films.
You guys are great
Yessss🎉
Wow, Osha might turn evil and Mae might turn good!? Still a lot of unanswered questions
This is is hit or miss... some good parts, some really cool parts, and some that just doesnt seem to flow... but im here, waiting to see how they end the show because it can still be good
The second half has really picked up the pace and I've been enjoying it way more, episodes 3 and 4 felt like a let down because of the pacing
I think your analysis that this is a setup episode for a talking episode is part of the reason I didn't care for this one too much. I like the series overall, and I think the last two episodes could be really good, but this one definitely felt a bit undercooked to me.
6:07 okay you and ewan aren’t fooling us, what you asked for literally happened in this episode, you guys secretly wrote this show I’m sure of it
Is Sol the evil one and not Manny? I want a bf that looks like Manny Jacinto.
Awful episode and series. Even Book of Boba Fett is a million times better than this show, and that's saying something because Book of Boba Fett was pretty bad
Battlefield Earth looks better compared to most Disney Star Wars and that is scary.
I have to disagree with you guys about the actor playing Sol. You could tell he’s struggling with speaking English. His acting is a bit forced; no subtlety and grace.
I wish that this show was almost entirely from the point of view of the Sith, but it feels like while Lucasfilm wanted that, Disney was too scared that a show about the villains of Star Wars wouldn’t reach as much of an audience as a show that was mostly about the Jedi.
I don’t think Disney was scared of anything. In fact, the story is still hidden from the past
Disappointed Wendy, so sad..
The main problem I have with this show is Mae/Osha. Their motivations are all over the place. If Mae cares so much about her sister that she was willing to turn herself in, why did she leave her sister unconscious on a planet with dangerous animals and a evil jedi who is out to kill her? Why is Osha so pro jedi before and now she's trying on Darth Bortles helmet hours after trying to citizen arrest Mae?
Their motivations are not changing; people are reading them wrong.
Mae's motivations are 1) Survival and 2) Reunification with Osha.
Osha's motivation is Freedom.
Their story is that everything in their lives has conspired against those goals. Only now, as they are finally about to learn the truth about what happened on Brendock will they be able to make decisions for themselves about what they really want.
They are similar to Clarice Starling from The Silence of the Lambs who was only able to find the serial killer and rescue the girl after she came to terms with her own past trauma.
@@hoos3014 How is leaving Osha alone and unconscious on a planet she knows nothing about with an evil force user helping her reunify with Osha? This episode showed Mae trying to sneak up on Sol to stab him so she really doesn't care about what the "truth" is. I'll concede that I might have mixed up "motivations" and "actions", but Mae's actions aren't matching the motivations you claim she has. Also, if this show was written as well as Silence of the Lambs or even the TV show Hannibal, I wouldn't have problems with it.
@@sgrapness4678 Osha had *just* rejected Mae. Mae believes her sister is not ready for what she wants because the Jedi are an obstacle.
Mae's new tactic is to expose Sol and the Brendock 4 for what she thinks they did 16 years ago. Which is why Sol stuns her before she can talk to anyone over the Holocom thing.
@hoos3014 Why is these people trying their best to get others to dislike the two main characters of the show ?🤔
@@pw3462 Being generous, a story about a character's internal struggle is not common in Star Wars, so long time fans are struggling with how to interpret it. It most closely resembles what Luke went through in TLJ, and we know how that conversation went.
I want a good written show about Qimir without Mae and Osha who are really boring. HIs story is much more interesting....❤ Qimir and Sol are the only reasons for me to watch the show. Greetings from Germany💕 PS: I will dream about Darth Biceps and how I will join him everywhere he invites me...😅
You again...same thing again...🤣You're killin' it, I guess.
How many times are you going to write this comment?
Agreed! 🎯 I only watch for Sol and Qimir.
This again!? Lol
I want, I want, I want!
Boring show that's it sorry you have to see it
