Star Wars fans rejoice! ‘The Acolyte’ has delivered some of the best

lightsaber action we’ve seen in many years. Unfortunately, the good comes

with the bad. At least for the characters on the show. As expected, with

The Master/The Stranger fully entering the story, it meant that some Jedi

weren’t long for this world. That proved to be true more than I think

anyone expected. However, as Jecki herself said only last week, “It’s

always an honor to get to witness anything or anyone transform into the

Force”. Though I’m not sure she meant so soon. This episode was chock full

of brutal and surprising deaths and deep cut lore references, that I’m sure

satisfied even the nerdiest of Star Wars fans. And despite a character

reveal we all saw coming, many interesting questions remain unanswered as

we head into the final three episodes of the season. Julian and Rachel

break it all down, and predict what role the Sith have yet to play in this

story.
