We learn that Mando and the intense group of Mandalorians he was with in season 1 are actually a "cult of religious zealots that broke away from Mandalorian society." According to Bo-Katan, they want to reestablish the ancient Way - the Way of the Mandalore.
This episode dumps a whole lot of lore on us, but it's all super cool. There's some tension between Mando and Bo-Katan at first, but a mutual respect soon develops.

Bo-Katan held the Darksaber and united the clans of Mandalore in the final season of Rebels, but Imperial Moff Gideon took the weapon in the years between that show and this one. It's wild to see Sackhoff playing the character in live action, especially since the show managed to stick so closely to the look of her CGI counterpart.

Shortly after arriving on the watery moon of Trask and reuniting Frog-Lady with her husband, Mando and Baby Yoda are rescued from a terrifying situation by fellow Mandalorians Bo-Katan Kryze, Koska Reeves and Axe Woves (played by Katee Sackhoff of Battlestar Galactica fame, Mercedes Varnado, better known as WWE wrestler Sasha Banks, and Simon Kassianides, whom you might recognize from Agents of S.H.I.E.LD).īo-Katan was a regular in The Clone Wars - she showed up in the incredible final arc earlier this year - and followup CGI series Rebels. You might want to turn on the subtitles for this episode, since there are fish people I found hard to hear.
