8:30 "If you want to make it to the ship before sundown?!" It's like 50 yards offshore!
loved the episode, big hype squad!~ Anyone ever noticed that all known Sith are adults? There are no Sith taking baby Siths to train? What if the power of two means the force: the dark side and the light. I spotted lore-breaking handrails in this episode. I assume this was done as a deliberate insult to George Lucas and a way of spitting in the face of the fans. Now we riot. Calm down, that was sarcasm. Regarding the lack of a PIN or biometric on droids, Star Wars is notoriously bad when it comes to computer security. There is no password protection or user accounts on any console, no network segmentation preventing mechanic droids in the loading dock affecting systems on the upper decks, and critical access points left out in the open unattended. If the Empire implemented some basic encryption with the Death Star plans they would still be exploding wayward planets to this day. This isn't me complaining at all, it's one of my favorite people details in the series. yall said elephant mouse, I said little ballsack creature They should have dropped these episodes with 2 per week. Now Playing
Ashley Judd, ‘Finding Nemo on Ice’ | Full Episode A lightsaber whip could make scars like we see on his back. A thought about Yoda knowing "The Rule of Two". The Sith Temple that Ezra, Kanan, and Ahsoka find seems to operate on something like a Rule of Two. Or at the very least A Master and An Apprentice. Much like the Jedi Temple on Lothal needing to be opened by a Master and Apprentice. So maybe the old Sith operated as Master and Apprentice a lot and therefore if there is one, there should be a second one. Any more than that leads to conflicts like the one that ended the Sith a millennia before Yoda and Mace discuss the Sith. This is not criticism just a general question. When making a story like Jurassic Park( the novel) Lord of the Rings or Harry Potter, before the pen really hits the pages, one of the first things you have to ask yourself is “Why does this story need to be told”. So I ask, why does this particular story need to be told in the Star Wars universe? We have some comic lore on Cal Kesttis's dark side dressing up like an evil Jedi Survivor's new boss new series new game plus Sideous, so there are tales and stories to dig deeper into for characters before Phantom Menace. But why do these main characters have a story (most of these characters are brand new with no mention anywhere else in the Star Wars universe)? What’s the goal of telling this real truth Am I the only one who started reciting the Jedi Code when they showed Sol struggling? There is no emotion, there is only peace. C’mon Sol, it’s the Jedi way. Could that helmet not be inhabited by a very very old Sith Lord that can possess and influence others? Haven't seen too many people talk about how he could also be the apprentice that Darth Tenebrous threw away as well. I immediately thought force lighting, especially since he didn't directly answer whether the master that did it to him was a Jedi. Tenebrous failed the apprentice who left and became the first Ren.
Edit Oh and in legends, there is a rocky ocean planet that has Cortosis, or exactly the one in this episode that Tenebrous and Plagues found. Too crazy of a coincidence if you ask me lol. The planet is called Bal'demnic "How did you get that scar", "Well, I turned to the dark side, and my master and I dueled and I killed him, but got this scar" How popular travel destinations are fighting ‘over-tourism’ TODAY Will we see Darth Revan in Canon?

Yeah the helmet thing is a neat idea, but we also kind of saw that with Kanan too that he was able to reach out through the force in his fighting, to overcome his blindness. "If you can see yourself, you will never be truly blind".
Now that you mention it, it's like a parallel here when Qimir says that although Osha shouldn't trust him, she should at least have enough trust in herself.
@@SilenMonser it’s stuff like this that makes this show feel like star wars, i truly couldn’t care less about all the things “fans” have been nitpicking about this show. it really doesn’t break canon at all, if anything it breaks their perception of what canon is because at the end of the day lucasfilm decides what’s canon, not the fans. they’re the ones making these shows/movies lol
Even the youglings do blinds pratice
@@SilenMonseryeah but quimir is a savage dude took on 5 or 7 Jedi the rest being a knight, a padawan and a master the Wookiee Jedi
It also feels very much like Osha is disappearing into her own headspace, turning the world "dark"
Qumir has a Long scar on his back and Master Vernestra has a lightsaber whip🤔
in such a short series this can’t be a coincidence, there was a reason they showed us both in the sams episode
oh they’ve definitely fought before
@@lukasj19999 exactly
@@TheeWandaStan or he just got an ass whooping😆
Eric suggested exactly this at 17:24
What makes Qimir a cool villain/quasi-villain is how deliberate his words and beliefs are
He's obviously another Palpatine, only the promises he preaches to Osha have whole truths, not just half-truths
What he says actually makes sense
He describes the dark side as not a last resort like Anakin saw it; the dark side is just a better tool, the RIGHT tool, to hone your Force abilities; he doesn't necessarily say it's easier, like how Yoda says it is
Every time I hear new philosophies about the galaxy's energy field, like the Thread, I'm so into it
This is true. But of course, he is the master of the deception. He knows which strings to pull to make Osha join him willingly, which always works better than fear, like with Mae. He gives her an illusion of freedom and choice. I bet that if she would try to reach the ship, he would stop her ASAP or would jingle the keys to the ship (metaphorically) in front of his face.
Which makes him a great character and Manny did a wonderful job portraying him.
“the forces moves darkly around a creature that is about to kill” Sol knew it was Mae the second she started creeping up on him, if he didn’t know already.
He was emotionally unbalanced at the time. My guess is he had to be told by Bazil
@@sandrosliskeso the mind reading jedi needed a pet to know who is who... Amazing...
@@sandrosliske No he didn't lol. He knew and wanted to see what she was trying to achieve.
@@kaiser_suzi_ so why did he stun her lol
@@sandrosliske Only Yord knew how to talk to Bazil though.
Notice how Qimir changed into white clothes which represents the seductive nature of the Dark Side. It's not an instant change.
Like when Palpatine presented himself in regal white robes via hologram to Ezra Bridger in the finale of Star Wars: Rebels, when he was seducing him to open the gate to the World Between Worlds with the temptation of saving his parents so that that Palpatine could become a god and conquer the universe.
it was an instant change for anakin lol
What I find interesting is that Qimir never lies (similar to Maul). They tell the truth from a "certain point of view".
On another note, @Calvin where did you get your Star Wars Pride shirt? I love it!
He has lied though. Multiple times through the show now. He's only killing these jedi cause they found out about him? He exposed himself to them, sent Mae after them to get his revenge on Vernestra. "I am no one. I only kill the jedi who know of my presence" What a load of shit lol.
Yes & "Semantics" ^^ Ah loved it & also disliked at same time because of being loyal Jedi & Republic fan since early -90's 😋 - Beautiful The Acolyte after 6x nice episodes is streaming at D+ - 🙂
My guess is Osha failed a test of attachment. She loved Master Sol so The Jedi Order severely "recommended" that she quit.
Sol mentioned her anger at Mae and not being able to let go of what happened was her issues
Thats what i think. She could not detach herself from her loved ones so she feels she “Failed.” Even tho…thats just being human.
the whole attachment thing never really quite works for me, you take a child and raise it and youre gonna get attached, kenobi clearly attached to qui gon, dooku clearly attached to qui gon, anakin clearly attached to obi wan, ahsoka clearly attached to anakin etc etc
@@ccam7802 It isn't so much that she was attached, it was that she was unable to let go of the attachment or at least that is my interpretation of the whole attachment thing.
@@ccam7802I feel like that might have been part of what led to the downfall of the order over time.
I love that the Jedi are just so oblivious of the Sith that Mog can only think of Sol turning on the Jedi because he is so confident that they were such a “strong group” when they got bodied
I think that is such a fun idea by the show, illustrating so clearly with the truth screaming them in the face the lack of imagination that ultimately dooms them. It has always been to be a fallen Jedi, and someone they would be aware of, nothing else makes sense to them. Most of them at least.
We also see it with Sol. "You have a Jedi weapon, but you are no Jedi.", his mind doesn't go to the Sith, it goes to confusion.
@@vintersaga2177 Sadly, that "you are no Jedi" felt likely the writers were trying to link back to Ahsoka's iconic line. There is a pattern of repeated lines throughout Star Wars ("I have a bad feeling about this..."), but if they don't flow naturally and feel forced (and this is specifically about the writers - actors do the best they can do with what's been written) they cause more harm than good to the story. Remember, Sol has met the witches as well, so he knows there are different schools of connecting to the Force - if the SIth are supposedly gone for centuries that's unlikely where his mind went, so I don't think he was _confused_ about the guy not being a Jedi, just doesn't know what he actually is at this point.
@@jollyrayda that's a good point. I do still find the line "You are no Jedi" to be indicative of the general mindset of the Jedi of the time. A bit of an "us and everyone else" indicator. I guess it could just be some subconscious baggage of mine, but the whole line of "You wield a Jedi weapon, but you are no Jedi" makes me think of the arrogance and unimaginative nature of the Jedi during peak Republic era, and it could just be me wanting the writers to explore that concept and the flaws of the Jedi more closely.
It makes sense that he wouldn't know what a Sith is, I doubt most Jedi would know that, it's surely not something most Jedi would teach with fear of the attraction to the dark side for the students.
Good points!
@@jollyrayda Personally, I think he was confused about him having a lightsaber since force users outside the order don't use them or rarely use them unless they are former Jedi or fallen Jedi.
MVP has consistently been Lee Jung-Jae. Bros carrying hard.
The Sith guy is pretty good. Immediately elevated the show.
@@lurkingposter Manny Jacinto. Also great in The Good Place, hope he shows up in more stuff.
Sol's character was the one I was most looking forward to in the entire series, and he is being Fantastic, Lee Jung-Jae's performance is Excellent, the character has very pleasant characteristics but he is conflicted, and that makes him interesting
Good design, fights, duality with Qimir, etc.
The Goat, the best of the series
dude, Qimir took down Sol's entire team while fighting basically blind and deaf
But that made him more powerful
He's like the anti-Kanan.
@@shugaroonyouch too soon
@@spectre-8 🤣
Except he was not blind or def thanks to the Force :D
Qimir and Sol were padawans together. Vernastra trained Qimir...
maybe he'll make "actual" Sith-kabobs. LMFAO.
i dont know what a Sith-kabob is, but assume you meant Sith-kebab 😆
@@ricov4210 lol. i don't use autocorrect and I'm not a spelling bee champion. In fact, the first thing I do when I get a new phone or computer or tablet is go to the settings and turn autocorrect off. I'd rather be made fun of for not knowing how to spell than say somehting horribly embarassing in a text because autocorrect though it knew what i wanted to say. Fuck A.I. i'd rather be not perfect. ANyways, I know you wre being funny but what an opportunity for me to shit on autocorrect. So thanks for that! Cheers!
eric: “i don’t wanna see jecki and yord’s corpse”
me, knowing that cut is coming: ☹️☹️☹️
loved the discussion between osha and qimir about the jedi dogma, i’m always partial to exchanges where a villain gets a hero to face painful truths about themselves. but my MVP is lee jung Jae, his acting is always so so good, like you can see the grief and guilt and regret carved on his face, but this time there’s also a hint of menace. i’m so intrigued about sol and what he knows, and where his character is going.
Start with osha breathing
End with osha breathing
But it started and ended with Osha??
@@ricardosalcedo2358 oh yeah , ill change
In the middle she was also breathing
anyone get the feeling that Qimir could be Vernestra's former Padawan? Assuming he *is* telling the truth about being a Jedi in the past and not just manipulating Osha.
Qimir/The Stranger is the first villain in Star Wars that actually makes the most compelling argument to join the dark side. Not out for power or domination, but for freedom to use the Force however you want, even and especially in ways the narrow view of the Jedi treat as taboo.
Isn't that just "I want to abuse this power but they won't let me"? It's exactly the same thing, why does people want power? to do what they otherwise couldn't.
True, the Jedi are guilty of being overly cautious with rules, but unfettered access to power leads to abuse.
Need I rattle off Yoda's statement about the path to the dark Side and its consequences?
@@yileduteno, it’s the fact that the Jedi are dogmatic. Qimir is basically seeking freedom from the Star Wars equivalent of religious persecution. The Jedi ironically are very much like Anakin when he said “you are either with me or against me”. It’s this line of thought that made them unable to see past the showd of the darkside and ultimately sense order 66 when it was far too late.
Except that he’s using the Force as a weapon, which is an obvious issue
@@kivimik yes, I agree that unchecked power corrupts absolutely, but you do need to bend the laws or even break them when absolutely necessary. Like Batman.
i find i kinda funny how they send a 4 man rescue party to a potential 10 man casualty event.
That guard rail was an OSHA requirement!!
The biggest canon break of all
RAILINGS IN STAR WARS
4:49
Honestly my only ACTUAL complaint about the series, is I feel some of the episodes are ending like 5 minutes early, Otherwise I am enjoying the heck out of it.
Yeah but I do think they played it very well this episode building up multiple lines of suspense and things to answer.
@@Melly_Wayy Huh? We've been waiting for the same answers for like 3-4 episodes, which should have been answered here. Next episode is gonna be a flashback that takes the entirety of the runtime. Dialogue is so weak like the previous episodes it doesn't help either.
me too, there were 2 episodes of 25 minutes removing the intro, credits, etc. That's some clone wars length episodes bruh
Yeah im not excited for the series to end just to have to obsess over it and wait for a whole year or two for season 2
omg
"I'm not that easily corrupted..." by soup 😆
Aaron talking about Plagueis being about 'due' in the timeline has me thinking they might have a twist where it's Sol -- whose "darkness" has been a running part of the mystery they've been dragging out -- becomes the new Sith, rather than either of the twins. I could see them setting up a 'wham' moment where Sol kneels, and the Sith Master (whether that's Qimir or someone else) ends the series with the line "Arise, Darth Plagueis." Ties Plagueis and his manipulations to create life through the Force to what this show is teasing about Osha and Mae.
my thought exactly, Sol is setting up to be the perfect Plagueis so far, only thing daunting to me would be his age and how that would work in the timeline, but nonetheless, Sols pure ability, obvious want to express emotion, past, and ability to mentor and teach the force would make it perfect for him to be Plageuis, I would love to see it.
I totally see that happening......except with Qimir
@@kaygee2121 Yeah, and that could instead lead to Sol being the 'fall guy' in the narrative to explain why the Jedi don't learn of the Sith. (I think they did something similar in the old EU's Darth Bane novels, in a particularly dark example.)
Overall, one of the things I like about this series is that it feels disconnected from the Skywalker Saga. But Plagueis is like two steps removed from the direct story, so the thought of this being his origin doesn't really bother me.
People wont like that lol. Muun Plaguies is way too popular.
@@bigwig252 Yeah I could see them race swapping Venamis to a human and revealing Qimir to be him (with the helmet design being a reference to his Bith origins in legends), but swapping Plagueis who's a much more important character would not be received well.
Venestra actin like a politician.. is this the groundwork inadvertently laid to order 66?
Is she Qimirs former master?
Right now my biggest concern about this show is that it is really hedging on the "what really happened" reveal. If that doesn't land, the smaller problems will stand out more in hindsight.
It won't matter iMO. Even if the reveal does stick the landing, people are dead set on hating this show regardless how it ends. It could be the best twist in history and it wouldn't change most opinions. The people who enjoy it, will still have enjoyed it. The ones who hate it, will still hate it.
@@viktorstagnetti7491 I predict it will reveal some horrible things on Brendok and the haters will say it was obvious even though they have spent over a month complaining about how a fire in a stone building killed that many witches.
The problem is that few things will satisfy anyone, because even the genuine fans will look for something almost flawless to stick it to the haters, and will probably have to settle with a fun, but not wholly perfect reveal that has things to nitpick and keep the hate going.
That is for thw idiots. For some of us who have legit concerns on some things sp far, if this reveal or some of the characters arc fall flat, those smaller concerns will be magnified in hindsight - it will be the key to go rewatch or not.
And im serious. If i enjoy a series but still see a lot of issues, i will rewatch if the ending is nailed.@viktorstagnetti7491
@@viktorstagnetti7491 I don't know man, I'm kind of in between. I still haven't decided if I like it or not. There have been great scenes, there have been cringeworthy scenes. For me it all comes down to the reveal/plot twist.
@@viktorstagnetti7491 Because a pkot twist doesn't really excuse lack of coherent storytelling. I'd rather have a predictable satisfaction than a plot twist after a tiring show
Very quickly Qimar has joined Sol as my favourite characters!
Last episode he was obviously fricking insane but this episode with every line of dialogue he had I just kept finding him more and more interesting!
Qimir basically calling Osha out for her doomed burgeoning situationship with Jecki is actually so funny.. even without his potion seller persona he's a comedian
OSHA was flirting with Jeckie right? I commented that somewhere else and a bunch of people came at me saying OSHA is not a predator and that jeckie is a child. I was so confused cuz i thought they were around the same age and that osha was clearly flirting with Jeckie???
The waves on that island between Osha and the ship were so easily swimmable.
I know it’s such an insignificant thing, but living near the California coast, I swim out past waves like that all the time.
For me, it was just more proof that she wanted to stay and hear what he has to say instead of taking the easy swim to the ship.
14:57 *Vernestra's* lightsaber is like a whip. Just the sort that would make a scar like we see on *Qimir's* back.
*EDIT:* _Seems you touched on this as well._
My favorite thing is that Qimir has been wearing black since the beginning of the show, but in this episode he takes a bath and then changes into WHITE. It is a symbolic of Qimir's motivation. He wants "freedom". He is Calm and the way he talks is very relaxed here. It feels like a whole different person. That is what he wants in his life and that is what symbolized by his change into a "white outfit".
But if anyone interferes with his freedom and gets him in trouble, he has to switch to a completely different personality to confront them. That is what his "black otfit" symbolises. I love that detail ❤
Or he just realised that his tactic with Mae didn't work and is using a different type of manipulation on Osha. "Look at me, I'm actually sweet and vulnerable and hot and don't worry about me not showing even a morsel of remorse for that massacre I initiated and completed yesterday".
Your right! Love this!
@@QueenMegaera Ha ha that's funny. But I think there is more to it than that. Because Qimir knew from the beginning that Mae did not match his motivation. He stayed away from the Jedi. But Mae wants revenge. That was Mae's idea to kill the four Jedi. Also may was weak and also variable. He knew it but helped her. He eventually had to clash with the Jedi because he was exposed.
Also he realized Osha is more powerful with the darkside than Mae. And somehow he knew about her attachment issues and her hate towards her sister,Mae. That's why he was able to manipulate Osha so easily.
I can't wait for the final battle between Master Squid Game and Darth Jason.
I have a feeling that this series will be enjoyed much more back to back.
Breaking it into 30 minute episodes did a lot of harm to what is actually a pretty good show. This should have been released in two, 2 hour halves (Part 1/Part 2). I think it would have been a lot better received in that format
Its ruins itself waiting a week for 25 minutes but after watching the whole thing altogether up to episode 6 skipping episode 3 its a great show
A 30 minute runtime doesn't make a show have bad acting performances, dumb character decisions and obnoxiously predictable "twists"....but sure.
@@kdot89lol they’ll come up with any excuse excuse as to why the shows aren’t enjoyable. When the “you’re racist” and “you hate women” comments didn’t stick, now it’s “watch it again but all together this time”.
@@kdot89 it actually does affect alot of things that could have been better but they have to rush everything into a strict 25 minutes, also people have been complaining about acting in everything since the prequels its such a dumb complaint its usually not even true its just a nitpick, i hated and i mean absolutely hated the sequels and book of boba fett but there wasnt an ounce of bad acting in there. disney has never hired bad actors and they have a strict vetting process even when they are just trying to hire people based off social political checkboxes they still will get the best ones that fit they’re criteria
I wish we had 45min-1hr episodes tbh
MVP of the episode is definitely Lee Jung-jae.
He's good, although he's been saying "I'll tell you the whole truth very soon" for at least three entire episodes now (not the actor's fault, of course).
I feel bad for Lee Jung-jae. He's the only good actor and plays the role of a fool Jedi master you can't even tell the difference between his Padawan and an imposter.
@@HungryHaskins54 She hasn’t been his Padawan for six years and he’s reeling from grief at Jecki’s and Yord’s deaths, cut him some slack.
@@HungryHaskins54 mans is going through a lot emotionally. Not surprising his force ability faulters a bit
@@nomisunrider6472 so he didn't smell the burnt hair? See the face tattoo? Think it was odd that he was stunned and the person that stunned him got away? Nothing? He is a Jedi master for crying out loud, I can't suspend my disbelief that much just to move the plot along. That's the writers job and they have failed with the majority of the show.
I reeeaaallly hope the unknown planet is Bal'demnic. The natural cortosis deposit and the sith connection from the show seems likely. It would also be a potentially cool way to maybe have Darth Tenebrous show up somehow
Yeah that is why they didn't tell us the name of the planet as too many would have gotten that bit of lore and a possibililty of seeing Darth Tenebrous in the finale.
it likely is, leslye headland confirmed in an interview that it’s where cortosis is mined but it’s called “unknown planet” because it hasn’t been charted by the jedi yet
I think Qimir made a gamble with Sol. He lost to him in battle and wasn't confident that a pursuit would pay off, so I think he simply hoped that Sol would be too ashamed to return without proper results and answers, and come after him rather than run to the council.
Qimir might have realized his only chance was trusting Sol's pride or guilt to lead him astray.
I’m just happy there is an Asian with a light saber. I’m just happy there is someone who looks like me in this world.
2 Asians: Lee Jun Jae is Korean and Manny Jacinto is Filipino Canadian
@@gemini3399I feel bad for Lee Jun Jae. He learned English for this role just to play a Jedi who can't tell the difference between his Padawan in an imposter and look foolish. They better have paid him well.
Is he your twin?
So ,story doesn't matter characters don't matter ? If the characters don't look like u? I'm just asking for a friend.😂
Wow, so you prioritize the color of a character's skin over the actual merit, personality, and decisions a character makes in order to relate to them? That is insanely racist and pathetic.
With her putting on that helmet it feels very much like Osha is disappearing into her own headspace, turning the world "dark"
Im strong on the fact he might be one of the first holders of Ren, eventually leading to the Dyad of Ray and Ben, with Ben being a holder of Ren and Rey being a Palatine

Real good discussion to you guys! Enjoyed it a lot
Regarding the lack of a PIN or biometric on droids, Star Wars is notoriously bad when it comes to computer security.
There is no password protection or user accounts on any console, no network segmentation preventing mechanic droids in the loading dock affecting systems on the upper decks, critical access points left out in the open unattended.
If the Empire implemented some basic encryption with the Death Star plans they would still be exploding wayward planets to this day.
This isn't me complaining at all, it's one of my favourite people details in the series.
You can see Venestra's expression change when she hears that something serious has happened to Sol and his Jedi team. The more she faced the incident, the more she panicked. She realized that something was not right and that she was somehow involved. I'm sure something bad happened between her and Qimir ☹️
And qimir is actually older than it appears....Mm interesting!
Wave Squadron For the Win & The Acolyte Rocking the Socks 🙂
My first thought during the bath scene…”I see your Schwartz is as big as mine.”
I made the same joke in my reaction.
What if the power of two means the force: the dark side and the light.
The power of two, the power of maaaannnyyy.
The whole time on the island i was looking so hard for a porg
I was also to be fair 😂 Was also trying to listen out for the sounds they make, the ambience of Ach-To.
Leslie did confirm afterwards that it wasn't Ach-To though.
Someone on Twitter posted the idea that the planet Quimir and Osha are on right now is the planet Bal'demnic, from Legends, that is the planet found by Tenebrous and Plagueis and the describtion fits as Bal'demnic is said to be an Ocean planet with rocky islands and azure water as well as the place where cortosis veins were found. If that is the case Quimir could have been the first apprentice of Tenebrous instead of Plagueis.
7:14 Han and Chewie shower together in Solo lol
8:30
"If you want to make it to the ship before sundown?!" It's like 50 yards offshore!
Olympic-size swimming pools are 50 meters long, which is 164 feet, or roughly *531 yards.*
This math makes my brain suicide
There are also insane waves, and sundown was an unknown time away.
But also, they focuses on how close the ship is after he says it, so we can also interpret it as him being funny.
I can tell you've never swam in heavy waves
And the last anyone ever saw of him
Haven't seen too many people talk about how he could also be the apprentice that Darth Tenebrous threw away as well. I immediately thought force lighting, especially since he didn't directly answer whether if the master that did it to him was a Jedi. Tenebrous failed apprentice who left and became the first Ren.
*Edit* Oh and in legends there is a rocky ocean planet that has cortosis ore exactly the one in this episode that Tenebrous and Plaguies found. Too crazy of a coincidence if you ask me lol. Planet is called Bal'demnic
"I watched it 30 times", mood!
I have been looking forward for this
The unknown planet looks a lot like Ahch-To, but it could be Bal'demnic from Legends, which was rich in cortosis ore and was known by Darth Plagueis.
yall said elephant mouse, i said little ballsack creature 😭🤣
Yeah, I settled on 'testicelephant', personally.

loved the episode, big hype squad!~
I think Qimir is a canonized version of Darth Venamis, he was the illegitimate secret sith apprentice of Darth Tenebrous and was unknown to Plagueis until much later. Venamis was very strong in the force, was very skilled with a lightsaber to the point that Plagueis resorted to his use of the force to defeat him, and was able to levitate. Sound familiar? Qimir throughout the series has also quoted pieces of the sith code which a fallen Jedi wouldn't know unless it was taught and I doubt that the jedi teach the sith code. Overall my belief is that he is a former jedi and now sith apprentice who is seeking a pupil of his own likely to eventually try to overthrow his own master.
Sol pulled a mad luke/ben on qumir an Sol has been pulling a palpatine with the order basically is what i think is going on But the rumor on the internet is that the green whip master was Qumir's master-
The Swole Sith has private beachfront property. Nice. And the railing? *He's following the OSHA regulations.* What are the odds?
I’ve been wondering how Yoda knew about the rule of two. If he knew that, he’d know the Sith aren’t extinct. Can’t have both
I always said and wondered the same thing. I looked it up a while ago and from what I remember, basically the Jedi throughout the years after the Sith extinction found things like Sith cults and followers who wanted to continue the Sith Order as well as Sith artifacts. I also think there was a fallen Jedi who had told them about it after he was defeated but no one took him seriously I think? It was a while ago so I'm not 100% sure, but yeah. Still doesn't make sense really but at least they tried to explain it. It's kinda like the Clones and the inhibitor chips. The Jedi and the Clones were essentially straight up told Palpatine was evil and plotting some shit and no one gave a shit about it lol
Didn't Darth Bane write stuff down? it was probably in some fairytale book or something.
That assumes that the rule of two started after the Sith extinction in canon. I don't believe that has been established in canon.
Leslye Headland has expressed an interest in exploring Bane, perhaps we'll learn about that in future products.
There's this amazing thing called research.
You should try it sometime.
I vaguely remember seeing something about him finding it out in a comic but it's probably non canon
Rey also used Force Lightning
A thought about Yoda knowing "The Rule of Two". The Sith Temple that Erza, Kanan, and Ahsoka find seems to operate on something like a Rule of Two. Or at the very least A Master and An Apprentice. Much like the Jedi Temple on Lothal needing to be opened by a Master and Apprentice. So maybe the old Sith operated as Master and Apprentice a lot and therefore if there is one, there should be a second one. Any more than that leads to conflicts like the that ended the Sith a millennia before Yoda and Mace discuss the Sith.
Qimirs justification as an advocate of the dark side of the force is very cool.. his reasoning is valid and very persuasive. His character is unique. He seems truly committed to the dark-side but he doesn’t seem purely evil.
I love the idea of a Plagueis connection. When he said "a long time ago" I thought about Palpatine talking about cheating death
Will be a great waste of lore on this crap show.
The whole time difference in the beginning through me off too but I had to go back and watch the 4th episode and it makes sense. Where ever Qimir and Mae landed was closer to the Forest than the Jedi landed. Remember, when the Jedi landed, they had to travel over hills and paths before getting to the Forest. So Qimir getting Osha back to his base before Sol and Mae could ever leave makes sense in that aspect.
When you said we got nothing new with Osha, this was one of my favorite Osha episodes.
She literally drew a lightsaber against Qimir and put on his helmet. We haven't seen anything like that out of her yet.
Star Wars is not about giving answers, it's about subtle nuances.
We heard about the clone wars back in 1977, the show and movie came out in 2002 and 2005.
I like how Eric, Calvin, and Aaron are all so animated when seeing things on screen, and Ricks just there like the rest of us at home; only laughing if its actually funny and not thinking what we would look like on camera. Love you RIck!
Yeah.. seems strange.
Could that helmet not be inhabited by a very very old Sith Lord that can possess and influence others?
19:45 This is where my head is at. After the reveal in e5, I've spent a week thinking back to e2. A line that seemed pure comedic effect at the time.
Just after Qimir told Osha "you look just like her" and the Jedi come running in - he looks at Sol and says something like "don't erase my memory, or whatever Jedi do" - seemed goofy at the time, but now 🤔
They might have mentioned it and if they did I missed it but, Anyone else seeing a parallel between Osha and Qimirs conversation and Ashoka and Mauls??
I think "the power of two" is Qimir trying to appeal to Osha by citing the chant of her Covent
A light saber whip could make scars like we see on his back.
8 dead Jedi, the council MUST be informed
but they wont... cuz its DUMB WRITING
@@Hoenhime344 they better be or Vernestra should be expelled from the order
@@Hoenhime344sure, its not like one of the defining aspects of prequel Jedi was that they were so in love with the status quo to the point of being literally blind to the truth.
Its an order built on rigidity, politicking, stability and rules. Even when it's detrimental.
Especially since that was true even in old canon even as early as old republic era - and the show runner is huge KOTOR fan.
The Jedi are more likely to cover it up than act upon it. Or find some easy fall guy.
@@Hoenhime344 Oh they won't be? Tell me the lottery numbers too if you can see the future, dude!
So Vernestra branded him on his back?!
“V” when she got rid of him
The helmet has whatever you bring with you, kind of like the cave on dagobah.
Vernestra suspects something I think that Quimir was her apprentice and the scar on his back came from her lightwhip.
One thing I haven’t seen people talking about is that we assume the 4th Jedi she is going to kill is Sol. She has never said. She only said she had to kill 2 Jedi after the first 2 and Qimir confirmed revenge on 4 Jedi. I think they have lead us to believe that because Sol was there with them but I really think Venestra was on Brendok as well and she’s the 4th Jedi.
"How did you get that scar", "Well, I turned to the dark side and my master and I dueled and I killed him, but got this scar"
That.......was apparently an episode of TV? Nothing happened.
I think that Unknown Planet is Bal'demnic.
I think Qimir also has a hidden master
He should unless he already got rid of him/her in true Sith fashion.
Headland came out and said in an interview that the Kylo Ren theme was deliberately put in there last episode…Qimir will likely end up being the current Master Of The Knights Of Ren and also a discarded Sith Apprentice, akin to Maul.
Honestly, everything about Qimir seems to be heavily inspired by Kylo Ren…from the crazy aggressive fighting style, to the robes, mask, voice, the way he talks and carries himself, even the method he’s using with trying to turn Osha mimics how Kylo was acting with Rey…all the way down to the Ben Swolo memes lol.
Except that Adam Driver was actually a good actor
@@ImTheReverse Manny is a good actor too
@@ImTheReverseI'd argue Manny is even better. We've seen his chops in previous projects - even in this he's great.
@@DiamondFire I agree with you that Manny is great but let’s not push it lol, Adam Driver has been called *”One of the greatest actors of his generation”* by Martin Scorsese himself…Scorsese is one of the greatest directors of all time, a literal legend of cinema, he’s the last person on earth who would throw a compliment like that out for nothing.
Adam Driver is a phenomenal actor.
@@DiamondFire Manny himself would say Adam is on another level
The word is ACROSS, not ACROST or ACROSSED. There's no hard T or D sound at the end of it. Tickles my pickle when people are old enough to know words and still say them like they're a baby.
I wonder if Osha failed her trial to become a Jedi knight ??
That way she failed some test of some kind
What strikes me about where we’re at now is EVERYBODY who’s left seems to very obviously have both darkness and light in them. There’s Qimir and Mae, who are more on the dark side, but they have the capacity for good, or as the guys were saying, they’re not just one note evil. On the other side, we’ve seen hints of darkness/deception from both Sol and Vernestra. Osha is also clearly having her doubts about the Jedi and her own path. If where we’re going by the end of this is the rise of the Sith we know in the prequels/OT, then it feels like anyone’s game at this point. It’s really compelling, imo 👍
Guys, he has a guard rail put up because Osha was there.😉
This was the first episode, for me, that had a truly great ending. All the others have felt strangely edited or abrupt, or like they ended in the wrong place, but this one absolutely nailed it.
I'm enjoying this show so much! One of the highlights of my week!
😂😂😂😂🤡🤡🤡🤣🤣🤣🤥🤥🤥

Scars on his back-whip lightsaber. I mean it has to be it
Lets bet the guilt Sol feels is of a similar sort like we saw Yoda, Obi-Wan and Luke experience- not having been able to prevent something bad from happening or having done something that set of bad things in motion.
kyle katarn said in rection that he had hunch that Qimir used to be Venestras padawan and now you guys think it was to since his scar looks like whip scar which would make sence she uses a lightsaber whip
"How could I not sense his intentions when we first met?"
HMMmmm... The same way you're not sensing this is actually Mei right in front of you and not Osha?
Where is the original other part of PIP? If Osha still has it maybe there is a backup of Pip in that part so she can restore him again?
