Last week, The Mandalorian makes an appearance. This week, the prospect of revisiting Grogu was on the table. Well, we didn't just get "baby Yoda" in Chapter Six. We got Master Luke, Ahsoka Tano, R2-D2, the debut of ant droids, Cobb Vanth...and we even got Cad Bane.


Watching so much Star Wars certainly pays off when you get episodes like this because you're not as lost and don't have to say, "wait, who is this guy and why is she/he important?" You don't HAVE to watch that much Star Wars, but if you're listening to this podcast, I have the feeling you are.


Steve has a soft spot for black outfit Luke. It's the Luke he emulated when playing with action figures. Everyone is free to choose their own hero. Even Grogu. I think his choice has already been made. I think he'll be wearing chain mail under his sackcloth and we'll get a Chamber of Mazarbul-like reveal. If you're a fan of The Lord of the Rings, you may know what I speak of, but I doubt it will be a spear.


Will Cad Bane walk away with the Darksaber somehow? Oh, I don't think he would use it, but I do think we could end up seeing Bane continue to be a thorn in Din Djarin's side into The Mandalorian season three. Will Luke come back to Tatooine? Will he stop by Ol' Ben's hutt to gather some more things and lead us into the Obi-wan Kenobi series? Will we get a series tag at all?
