The Acolyte - Episode 4

Returning to the present, the fourth episode catches up with the series’ key characters. Having fulfilled her task and helped the Jedi find her sister, Osha (Amandla Stenberg) prepares to leave Coruscant and return to her life. However, Sol (Lee Jung-jae) convinces Osha that her part in the story is far from finished and to accompany the Jedi to Khofar where Mae (Stenberg) and Qimir (Manny Jacinto) have arrived and begun hunting the next target on the list (the Wookiee Jedi living deep within the dangerous woods of the planet).

Although her assassination attempt on Olega is thwarted by being unable to reach Master Torbin (Dean-Charles Chapman), Mae‘s  (Amandla Stenberg) the attempt clears Osha (Stenberg) of any crime given she was in the custody of the Jedi at the time. Although we’ll have to wait another episode to start filling in Mae’s motivations, the second episode of the series does confirm the exact number of Jedi she’s hunting and their relationship to Mae and Osha’s homeworld of Brendok.
