Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaFirst in-universe appearance of Jedi Master Kelleran Beq, the character was created for Star Wars: Jedi Temple Challenge (2020), a Star Wars themed game show for children. Kelleran is played by actor Ahmed Best, best known for playing Jar Jar Binks in Star Wars: Episode I - The Phantom Menace (1999), Star Wars: Episode II - Attack of the Clones (2002), Star Wars: Episode III - Revenge of the Sith (2005) and Star Wars: The Clone Wars (2008).
- GoofsIn a world filled with extremely dangerous predators, all the warriors (except Bo-Katan) went off into the dark to eat their dinner alone, instead of staying by the fire for safety. They did this so they could remove their helmets, but in previous chapters Mando has been shown to eat food by slightly moving forward the armor over his mouth.
- Quotes
Mandalorian Judge: Each has three darts. You may fire the darts in any order. Each direct hit scores one point. A mark must be visible to score. One round. Highest score wins.
The Mandalorian: [to Grogu] Squeeze your first to launch the darts. You'll be fine.
Bo-Katan Kryze: He doesn't know how to fire darts?
The Mandalorian: He's got this. Trust me.

Chapter 20: The Foundling
It feels like there's a lot waiting for this season. We're already four episodes in, but it doesn't feel like it has set up anything real meaningful yet. The first episode did a great job of providing the season with many ways to go, but the main conflicts still seem to be missing. With this episode, the entirety of the short runtime was spent with the title character as he goes on another adventure, but we also finally see what happened to Grogu on Coruscant. While the answers this episode provided to Grogu's storyline were very satisfying, it lacked entertainment in some other areas.
A lot of the episode is dedicated to a mission to save a young foundling from being eaten by a big bird creature, and that was the least interesting part of the episode. The adventure-of-the-week structure still works, but there are certainly some adventures that are less interesting than others. A lot of the writing didn't quite match up and while the action was cathartic and interesting, a lot of the visuals were incredibly wonky, especially in the environments. However, the episode also provides some answers to Grogu and what happened to him during Order 66, and that part was incredible. Grogu's role in this show is really solidifying itself, and it makes sense why Favreau and crew wanted him brought back as quickly as possible, and his reintroduction in "The Book of Boba Fett" actually had some purpose behind it. At this point, a lot of different angles of Order 66 have been shown, and it's always interesting to see the path that different Jedi take and seeing who survived and who didn't. The Mandalorians are clearly individuals who are not defined by their paths, and by showing snippets of Grogu's path, it's clear that all of it is still very much on his mind, so whether he will ever become a good enough Mandalorian is a question that lingers on everyone's lips. It's great how they're showcasing this divide in someone who cannot use words, and everything with Grogu seems to slowly become the strongest aspect that this show has to offer still.
A lot of "Chapter 20: The Foundling" isn't worth really mentioning, but everything with Grogu is so good that it really elevates the episode's potential. There's a lot still to be discovered in Grogu and a lot of the questions that we all have are sure to be huge drives for the creatives. At least, we hope...
