"The Mandalorian's Latest Episodes Tease Palpatine's Return and Introduce Shocking Spy"
The latest episode of The Mandalorian reveals that Moff Gideon has built a base on Mandalore and is equipping new Stormtroopers with beskar armor. In a conversation with Imperial Warlords, references are made to "Project Necromancer," which could be about bringing Palpatine back with cloning, and Thrawn might have played a key role in making it happen. Thrawn will be a key part of Disney Plus' Ahsoka series, making Gideon's attempted power play ill-advised. Thrawn could be the glue that patches up one of the series' most bizarre events, Palpatine's return.
