One thing you can say about The Acolyte is its consistent dark overtones. From the first episode on, it went beyond a simple murder mystery as we discover the tale of Osha and Mae (both played by Amandla Stenberg), twins separated from their home planet of Brendok, one thinking the other was dead.

One thing you can say about The Acolyte is its consistent dark overtones. From the first episode on, it went beyond a simple murder mystery as we discover the tale of Osha and Mae , twins separated from their home planet of Brendok, one thinking the other was dead. Osha is driven by guilt looking for a simpler life, and Mae is driven by her revenge against the Jedi who took her sister away and helped wipe out their coven.

Vernestra is trying to handle the Jedi matter internally, but the apprehensive Senator Rayencourt grows suspicious of her actions, already showing his prejudice against the Jedi about what he feels is the lack of proper transparency with the Order. Image: Lucasfilm Screencap Not to be a snob about how the events play out but given the nature of The Acolyte from the first episode, you shouldn't expect some happy ending. It is a tragedy, but there is a path to season two.
