Han Took Shots First

Jack and Derrick react on their first ever livestream to the brand new teaser trailer for The Mandalorian & Grogu

In The Mandalorian Chapter 16, “The Rescue,” Mando leads a daring assault on Moff Gideon’s cruiser to save Grogu, teaming up with Bo-Katan, Cara Dune, Fennec Shand, and Koska Reeves. After an intense showdown, Mando defeats Gideon in combat—accidentally winning the Darksaber and Bo-Katan’s side-eye in the process. Just as things look dire with Dark Troopers closing in, the Luke Skywalker arrives to mow them down like it’s 1983 again. The episode ends with a tearful goodbye as Mando removes his helmet so Grogu can see his face, giving Star Wars fans everywhere a collective emotional meltdown.

In Chapter 15, The Believer, Mando teams up with ex-Imperial sharpshooter Mayfeld for a covert mission to locate Moff Gideon’s cruiser. To do so, Mando disguises himself as an Imperial trooper and endures a tense infiltration of an Imperial refinery, culminating in an awkwardly brilliant mess-hall scene where Mayfeld snaps and blasts an officer mid-monologue. After a chaotic escape involving TIE fighters and Slave One-style fireworks, Mayfeld earns his freedom. This is the Way.

In Chapter 14 of The Mandalorian, Din takes Grogu to the ancient seeing stone on Tython for some Jedi Wi-Fi, but just as the Force signal is loading, Boba Fett and Fennec Shand show up demanding the armor back. Before anyone can settle things, Imperial troops crash the party, leading to a tag-team brawl where Fett reminds everyone why he’s a legend. The good news: Din gains allies. The bad news: Moff Gideon swoops in and nabs Grogu, leaving Din staring at smoldering wreckage of the Razor Crest and one very empty baby carrier.

In Chapter 13 of The Mandalorian, The Jedi, Din finally meets Ahsoka Tano, who’s been slicing and dicing her way through a corrupt magistrate’s goons. She bonds with Baby Yo—errr, Grogu—and reveals his name, his tragic Jedi daycare backstory, and his force powers. Ahsoka refuses to train him (classic Jedi move), but she does point Din toward the planet Tython, while also casually dropping the name of her real target: Grand Admiral Thrawn.

Remeber to follow us over at our other podcast BAD MOVIES WORSE PEOPLE because The Mandalorian will be moving there exclusively VERY SOON!

On this episode, we discuss The Mandalorian Chapter 12, in which Mando swings by Navarro for some much needed spaceship repairs, only to get roped into helping Greef Karga and Cara Dune blow up what’s supposed to be an abandoned Imperial base, but in Star Wars, “abandoned” always means full of stormtroopers. Inside, they stumble on creepy cloning experiments while Baby Yoda enjoys a day at space preschool and proves that even Force-sensitive toddlers need creamy blue cookies.

Chapter 11 of The Mandalorian sees Mando finally deliver Frog Lady to her husband, who doesn’t seem too upset about all of his dead kids. Things improve when Mando teams up with a squad of Mandalorians led by Bo-Katan, who’s basically Mandalorian royalty and makes him look like the kid still riding with training wheels. Together they hijack an Imperial ship, toss stormtroopers around like trash bags, and set up the looming quest for the Darksaber—while Baby Yoda spends the episode learning how not to eat other people’s children.

In Chapter 10 of The Mandalorian, Mando becomes an intergalactic Uber driver for a frog lady who needs to get her eggs home, or it’s the end of her bloodline, no pressure. Things go south fast when Baby Yoda treats the eggs like a personal snack bar, and a pit stop on an icy planet unleashes a horde of nightmare fuel spider-creatures. We get appearances from X-Wing pilots and some kick ass flying.

In The Mandalorian Chapter 9, Mando returns to Tatooine in search of other Mandalorians, only to find Cobb Vanth—a marshal wearing Boba Fett’s armor and a serious swagger. The two strike an uneasy deal: help kill a massive krayt dragon in exchange for the armor. They team up with Tusken Raiders (because nothing says “bonding” like shared monster hunting) and pull off a spectacularly messy victory. Mando gets the armor, rides off into the suns, and a mysterious, very familiar figure watches him leave.
