How did the Client survive the fall of the Empire? What does the Client want with the Child? (We’re sticking with that name until we get the real one, since calling him “Baby Yoda” feels about as correct as using “Frankenstein” instead of “Frankenstein’s monster.”) But the central question of the series gets an answer this week: What kind of man is the Mandalorian?

As he lands, the Mandalorian has grown comfortable enough with the Child to gently shoo him away from his ship’s controls, even picking him up by the scruff of his cloak like a mama cat with a kitten.
