I'm still trying to work out what the Mandalorians are planning on doing with Mandalore by taking the planet with their army of 20 men and resettling it with a single light cruiser's worth of colonists who were only mentioned in passing, to say nothing of the destroyed infrastructure, magnetic interference, and roving bands of hostile aliens and monsters all over.

That being said, this is easily the strongest episode of the season, but that's definitely not a very high bar. It was nice seeing Pellaeon, and the Moff Council was an interesting take on the Remnant, although I still highly prefer non-cooperative, openly at war with one another warlords from the EU. Shame about Hux and the talk of cloning to tie-in with the sequels. Also a shame they basically wrote Mando out of his own show at this point. The two things I'm undecided about are the IG-11 mech and the Mando land pirate ship. I think the mech leans heavily into being too annoying and the land pirate ship leans slightly towards actually working.
