The Acolyte Episode 6 Recap: Rollercoaster of Events
The turn of events in episode 6 of The Acolyte leaves viewers on the edge of their seats. Mae’s revelation as a female Sith, coupled with Qimir’s shocking identity as a masked villain, sends a chill down the spines of the Republic. Sol, a Jedi, pays a heavy price for these revelations, losing his entire team in search for Kelnacca.
The only survivors are Basil, an affable beaver-like creature and tracker, and Osha, or so Sol thought. In a cunning move, Mae swaps places with Osha, resulting in Qimir abducting the latter for a mysterious journey to an unknown planet.
Unexpected Discovery and More Twists
Accompanying Basil’s return to the ship is Pip, a handheld repair droid and Osha’s creation, designed for a variety of tool attachments with a chipper personality. Predictably, Pip had been placed in Qimir’s shirt by Osha to keep the bug-like monsters at bay, eventually saving Sol. Devastated, Sol, overwhelmed with guilt and relief, thanks Mae, not realizing she is not Osha, promising to make things “right.”
Meanwhile, Basil, in a cute attempt to defend the crew, engages Mae in a duel. However, Mae’s defensive techniques ultimately result in a factory reset for Pip.
