About this episode

The episode breaks down chapters 3 and 4 of Star Wars: Maul - Shadow Lord, analyzing the story and connections to the larger Star Wars Universe.

Join the Watch for some incredible episode of Star Wars: Maul - Shadow Lord. In this episode we breakdown both chapters scene by scene to analyze the story, fine comb for easter eggs, and explain how it all connects to the larger Star Wars Universe. These two episodes, Whispers in the Unknown and Pride and Vengeance deepen the story of both Maul and Devon. Maul's training of Devon has begun over some nice Cassius Tea. The Rule of Two and what it means to be a dark sider outside of that. Devon's resistance to the dark side. We are seeing Maul's new approach to teaching. Mac turns on Two-Boots. Brander's Ex-Wife and a theory confirmed. The most intense blaster fight we've ever seen. "Die well." Saw Gerrera impressions. All this and more in our breakdown of the incredible Star Wars: Maul - Shadow Lord series. Don't forget about our Maul- Shadow Lord Review Contest.
