Welcome to the Heavy Spoilers show I'm your host Paul and this video we're breaking down
all of the big leaks and info that we've heard about the upcoming Mandalorian Episode.
Shown at Star Wars Celebration it sounds like there's lots of major things happening in
the upcoming entry and throughout this video we're gonna be going over the main points
and leaks from the event.
Obviously heavy spoilers ahead and with the episode releasing on Wednesday you might not
wanna know anything before we head into it.
Channels called heavy spoilers mate so I dont wanna hear anything about 'urrrr why did you
spoil it' just shut up man, just shut UP!!!!!!
With that out the way, huge thank you for clicking this.
Now let's get into our Mandalorian Spoilers.
Now according to the rumours episode 7 will see the return of none other than Moff Gideon.
Turns out that he will actually be on Mandalore and this is where the episode will predominantly
take place.
If you watched our episode 5 breakdwon then you might have seen us talking about how the
intro to the star wars show now features a red mandalorian helmet in it.
Many people thought that this might just be Mando but we theorised that because the colours
denote blue for bad and red for good that this was actually Moff Gideons.
Turns out that's true as well and we'll apparantely see him donning a black mandalorian suit along
with a matching helmet.
In addition to this he'll also have Praetorian Guards who also wear their own beskar armour
as well.
Praetorian guards are what we saw working alongside Snoke in the Last Jedi and they'll
apparently have armour now more in line with The Mandalorians due to the imperials plundering
the planet.
Now take this with a pinch of salt as I wasn't able to fully verify it cos there's a lot
of fake leaks floating around.
Some people were even saying that Han Solo made a cameo in the episode but this has been
debunked so anyone who's telling you is tricking you mate and this is why you can trust your
uncle Kevin Spoilers.
Unless he's in it and I've been tricked.
Anyway the guards will apparently come from The Shadow council and this will be led by
General Hux's father Brendol.
Brendol has appeared in a lot of the expanded lore and he's gonna be basically charging
the Praetorians with protecting Gideon as he tries to gain a foothold on Mandalore.
Here he's mined the planet and then taken the beskar and given it to these guards so
that they can make their suits.
This will be why the shuttle that Captain Teva found had traces of it and they'll be
big enemies in the episode that the Mandos have to fight off against.
Now it'll turn out that Gideon has been lying low on the planet for a while and that the
bombers we saw attacking Bo's palace will actually belong to him.
This moment very much echoed the night of a thousand tears and the attack was deliberately
carried out by him as an act of revenge in his vendetta against her and her people.
I'm guessing that the moff was expecting more of her allies to be there but obviously they
all left quicker than the audience for this season did.
buh bum cha
I'm just kidding I thought it was arlig....well not that bit...but it's been alright.
Anyway you've unsusbcribed...back on track.
Now the Ahsoka teaser also shows the grand entrance of the Grand Admiral.
Thrawn is back and though he won't appear in this episode he will be at the very least
name dropped.
Gideon working for him is another theory that we had and apparently his name comes quick
and fast with him being mentioned early on in the 7 minute preview that was shown during
the first big panel at the event.
We have a big breakdown of that on the channel and also if you want to see the first image
of Lars Mikkelson as Thrawn then head over to our instagram at Heavy Spoilers which will
be linked as the pinned comment.
Copyright is a funny old thing on youtube so I don't really wanna show it in the video
but it's there if you're interested.
Anyway The whole point of Gideons mission is to rebuild the first order from here and
we'll also apparently discover what was happening with the cloning.
Apparently at some point they talk about bringing the Empire a new leader and I think that this
might be the point at which Thrawn is mentioned.
If you've read Heir to the Empire then you'll know that he was very much attempting to become
the new Emporer and take over the whole racket.
However it becomes clear that they are trying to use cloning technology to make it so that
Somehow Palpatine returned.
According to reddit Gideon walks past some cloning tubes like what we saw in Season 2
and we can see bodies in them.
User JVanderH said they tried seeing who was in it but they couldn't tell whether that
was snoke or the emporer due to it being abit blurry.
They did say though that it looked more human than snoke did so they may be reintroducing
palps through this.
We will apparently learn that the project is called Project Necromancer so it makes
sense that it centres around bringing the dead emperor back to life.
Now speaking of dead, we also get a big character death in this episode.
I've kinda spoiled some of the more major things but yeah this might be one you want
to avoid so again, heavy spoilers mate.
Still here.
Right.
Well, the episode apparently has the death of Paz Viszla playing out in it with him dying
during battle against Praetorian guards.
According to the leaks it'll be a big glorious death with his final words being this is the
way.
Which....I'm not crying...you're crying.
Now the episode will also apparently end with a big cliffhanger and in this battle din will
get captured.
I couldn't fully work out what was said but the leaks basically went over about how he
was wrapped in cables and captured before he was taken to a debriefing room.
Whether that's where the shadow council is or not I don't know but that's basically what
happened with him.
Now other things I was able to parse out of this big spoiler thread is that there's a
gigantic lava beast on the planet that the mandalorians have to fight.
I'm hearing that this is at the mid point and that it sets up the big battle that comes.
I have seen the credit concept art for this and it kinda looked like a giant worm from
that with the mandalorians fighting it from a metal platform that I think might be a boat.
There's also some armour that Grogu gets as well.
If you've been watching our weekly breakdowns then you'll know we brought up that there
were some leaks that said Grogu got a mech suit in the series made out of IG-11.
This is apparently true as well with it basically being the character with his inside hollowed
out and it having Grogu sitting in the middle of it.
From the way it was described I'm imagining it being like Krang from the ninja turtles
with him sitting in the middle and controlling it from there.
Apparently he's got two knobs on him like your girlfriends dream man and these can be
activated to say either Yes or no.
This will be how Grogu talks in these episodes with him answering questions through pressing
that.
Again kinda parsing things from comments on leak threads so whether that's fully accurate
or not reamians to be seen but they did mention something along those lines.
Other little miscaellaeneous things I could pick up are that the episode is titled the
spies and that it runs for about 40ish minutes.
Seen some say 42 and then others say that it's about 50 but that's including recaps,
credits and so on.
So yeah its one of the longer ones from the season but not a mammoth hour long entry or
anything.
The shadow council also has Gilad Palleaon connected to it as well.
Whether he appears on it or not I'm not sure but he does at least get name dropped as being
part of it along with Thrawn.
Pellaeon is a big name in the expanded lore and he commanded the imperial star destroyer
Harbringer.
Eventually he ended up joining Thrawns Seventh Fleet as well so they are very much setting
things up for his appearance in August as part of the Ahsoka show.
I am really excited for that as the trailer looks awesome and this episode this episode
of Mando also sounds big too.
This is pretty much gonna be a major two parter thing before we head into the finale and from
what people have been saying after the event, this is a big way to ramp things up for the
finale the week after.
Mando this season has kinda been all over the place and there have been a lot of rumours
that they've tried to force too many things into the series due to studio interference
with Favs design.
According to Josh at Den Of Nerds there were parts of the Gina Carana spin off show that
they got pushed into this and they've steered away from having Din as the main mandalorian
because they want to tell more stories involving other characters incase they cant get Pedro
Pascal back for future installments.
The creative team have confirmed that they are focusing on different characters with
the mandalorian title being something that can be changed to apply to other people.
That's kinda becoming clear and obviously I'd love to hear your thoughts on the season
so far and what you think of these leaks.
