Latest Episode of The Mandalorian Ending Explained; Evil Mando Revealed?

The last episode of Mandalorian presents fans with an unexpected plot twist that could impact the remaining episodes of the third season. It turns out that the New Republic transport carrying Moff Gideon has been attacked, and the body of former adversary of Din Djarin is missing. This can mean only one thing: Gideon has been freed. Just who is behind it?

Moff Gideon is back, but who is behind his liberation?

It looks like it won't be long before Din Djarin is once again up against Moff Gideon. A transport carrying the important prisoner has been raided and the only clue is a piece of beskar, which is referred to as "Mandalorian iron," among other things. Does this mean that the Mandalorians could be behind Gideon's release? After all, he is responsible for the Great Purge of Mandalore.

However, it should be remembered that during the period of the Galactic Empire some Mandalorians served in the ranks of the imperial military, and their distinctive feature was white armor. The third season of Rebels depicted a group of Mandalorian warriors who fought faithfully for the Empire, with Mandalore's moon, Concordia, as their base of operations.

Perhaps this group remained loyal to the Empire even after its fall. And it is possible that they were behind the release of Moff Gideon, who thanks to this situation would gain strong allies who are masters of diversion.

However, another option is possible. Moff Gideon possessed a considerable supply of beskar. Perhaps while he was in captivity, those loyal to him completed the design of a new generation of dark stormtroopers, whose armaments are made precisely of beskar alloy.

This is suggested by a fragment left on the ship. The Mandalorians did not use beskar for weapons of such large caliber, and spear fighting would have been decidedly impractical on the cramped deck of the vessel. The beskar piece, however, is large enough to be a shard of droid armor. If Gideon has dark stormtroopers from beskar in his sights, then Din and the other Mandalorians are in for a very rough time.

Confirmation of either theory will have to wait. The creators ended the fifth episode with a cliffhanger that is impossible to ignore. It must be admitted that the third season is gaining momentum.
