Chapter 13 – “The Jedi”
Mando and the child head to a planet to learn more of his origins. A cruel magistrate offers Mando a pure beskar spear if he will kill a Jedi threatening her fierce power grip over the townspeople. Mando and Baby Yoda find the Jedi, who can speak to the Child. The Jedi tells us Baby Yoda’s name. Instead of killing the Jedi, Mando takes a different path.
You’ll have to watch to learn Baby Yoda’s name — or have it spoiled in a review or news article online, but, minor spoiler, it sounds a little too much like “Google” to me.
I’ve been itching to learn more about The Child’s origins and this episode gives us more than a minor teaser. It’s also fun seeing a Jedi wielding a light saber. The mini mission for Mando is entertaining, albeit a little slow compared to other episodes. All in all, another solid episode.

I think this is the best episode of the series so far, and that’s saying something. I loved it and watched it a second time right away. It would be nice to see another series using that particular Jedi.

I’ve loved most episodes of this show. Favreau and Filoni are doing a fantastic job. What did you think of Baby Yoda’s name? Does it fit the little guy?

No, but I think any name would be a let down. He’ll always be Baby Yoda to me.

Maybe we’ll find out that the name means something like Baby Yoda.

I guess the Child’s name is alright. Pretty sure Filoni and Favreau didn’t feel people calling the Child “Baby Yoda” was right. Though, not confident that audiences will stick with the new name and will just stay with their own self-appointed title.
