The final chapter of The Mandalorian season 3 plays it safe to deliver a classic Star Wars conclusion and to take some weight off Din Djarin’s shoulders.
The Mandalorian fleet under attack.
Back on Mandalore, Bo-Katan and the remaining members of the party that got tricked hard in Chapter 23 are getting to safety and waiting for reinforcements to head back into Gideon’s base. A rescue of Din isn’t needed though, as he frees himself – with Grogu’s timely help – even before the title credits roll. A helmet-less face-to-face with the main villain would’ve been nice before things got hectic, but Favreau had other plans in mind.
Gideon himself also confirms shortly afterwards that his ultimate goal was to “put the Force” into himself and his clones. Again, something that was pretty much established last episode with his expository dialogue after capturing Din. It underlines why Grogu was so important to his research and is another strong callback to storylines from the Legends canon, including the cloning of Starkiller in The Force Unleashed 2. So yeah, midi-chlorians very much mattered in the long run.
After struggling with Gideon for a while, Din gets to Grogu and manages to take out the guards with his little son’s help. This is only possible because Bo comes down for the rematch Gideon owed her. Again, the traditional Star Wars vibes took over most of this episode, and their duel leaned hard on the Luke vs. Vader showdowns and even pays homage to Finn vs. Phasma in The Last Jedi.
