Chapter 11: The Heiress

It was great to see Katie Sackhoff bring an assist to Mando.

The thing that is great about this show is that when we think we know what to expect, something else happens and it flattens us.

I was glad that frog woman had at least a few of her eggs left- and that Mini Yoda started to respect that these things might actually hatch into living beings.

But then again on Trask there are plenty of little octopus things to eat, or that might eat little miniature Yodas.

It appears that after their ordeal, Mando and the frog lady have developed a kind of rapport.

Also for appearances sake, Trask seems to be the planet of Mon Calamari. So now that we have seen Mon Calamari admirals in the movies, now we get to see Mon Calamari Dock workers and bartenders.

And Mando meets up with some of his kind, except are they really his kind? A lot of questions after this episode especially interest in a certain light saber that we saw in the last episode of season one.

I was told that this particular object actually has a history in Star Wars canon. So I am glad that these stories are being told.

I am also wondering why there are so many imperial troops and ships still around... although not in power anymore they still have the ability to bully their way around planets like Trask.

My only real complaint about this show is that when it gets into the episodic stories, they are just so short... although with varying degrees of relevance toward the whole story.

This episode was very relevant and pushes, rather propels the story forward in a great leap regardless of its short length.

And it was even a woman Director, Bryce Dallas Howard.
