The Mandalorian: Season 3, Episode 5 “Chapter 21: The Pirate” (B+)
Just one week after a flashback showed us Jedis protecting a young Grogu, this episode had the entire covert of Mandalorians banding together to stage a rescue of the people of Nevarro, which was quite exciting to watch. Captain Teva proved almost immediately that he’s one of the good ones, determined to find a way to help Carga even though he got told by Tim Meadows’ Colonel Tuttle that it simply wasn’t going to be procedurally possible. The notion of the New Republic not being any better than the Empire is an interesting one, though of course it’s much more concerning to know that Elia works for Tuttle and has quite the sway over him despite Teva advocating that her newfound enlightenment shouldn’t be taken as sincere. Bo-Katan has more that proved herself as a leader, and she was quite startled to be told by the Armorer to remove her helmet before walking out in front of the other Mandalorians without it. It’s a smart, forward-thinking strategy, to have her walk two worlds and unite the entire people, which is going to be very important given what Teva happened upon on his way home. Seeing more Mandalorians is definitely a good thing, even if some of them have less noble intentions. Hopefully Teva reaching out to ask for help and promising not to reveal the location of their covert will be seen as a productive development that paved the way for Bo-Katan do outreach of her own to their people.
