The Mandalorian Season 2 Episode 3 The Heiress SPOILER Review Nov 14, 2020

Show notes

The Mandalorian Season 2 keeps going on Disney Plus with its episode 3 The Heiress. In this episode, Mando reunites the nameless Frog Lady with her husband on the ocean moon of Trask. Mando receives a tip on where to find other Mandalorians, which turns out to be a set-up out on the seas—Star Wars on a boat!—that nearly costs The Child his life when he is swallowed by a huge, squid-like monster on the vessel. However, a trio of Mandalorians arrive via jet pack to rescue Mando and The Child just in the nick of time. Bryce Dallas Howard returns with a BANG to direct another episode of The Mandalorian from a script by Jon Favreau.
