The Acolyte: Destiny (Season 1, Ep. 3)

Witches. Get. Stitches. We’re in flashback mode this episode as we hearken back to the Clone Wars’ Nightsisters, and bring back the same conversation we had during their extermination—about the persecution of powerful women.

This episode spirals us through a million possible theories of what happened The Night of the Fire. What do we really know about the Jedi on Brendok? Whose jurisdiction applies? Would you rather be groomed into a cult leader or a child soldier? And what can we surmise about this coven of dark witches? Most importantly, Mae and Osha’s story continues to be a whodunit mystery, and the story of “Destiny” opens far more doors than it closes. 

We'd just like the Brendok coven to know we’ve been fans since Dathomir…please don't turn us into newts!
