The Mandalorian works with a nefarious crew in The Mandalorian Chapter 6 – The Prisoner. We are revisiting this episode from season one in this episode of Podcast Stardust.
Dennis is still in the bacta tank recovering from an illness, so we are going back to 2019 and rebroadcasting episode 36 of Podcast Stardust. This episode featured our discussion of Chapter 6, “The Gunslinger,” of The Mandalorian. Mando catches up with an old ally and joins a crew lead by Migs Mayfeld intending to hijack a New Republic prison ship and free a prisoner. Unsurprisingly, things go south, and the Mandalorian must make adjustments to survive this mission and collect his reward.
On this episode, we discuss:
- The Mandalorian’s history with Ranzar and his crew,
- Why didn’t the Mandalorian ask who they were going after,
- Our reaction to Mayfeld the gunman,
- Jay’s initial and subsequent response to Xi’an the Twi’lek, and
- The cameos featured in this episode.
