The end of The Acolyte is upon us—but just how will Osha and Mae’s story come to a close? We’re about to find out. Need a place to talk spoilers as the episode happens? io9’s here to help with our Acolyte finale spoiler discussion zone!
It’s been a long road to get here, of course—it was only last week that we got the full picture of what actually happened on Brendok the night Osha and Mae’s lives were turned upside down. But now that we at least know Sol’s part in all of this, will tonight’s eighth and final (for now, at least; showrunner Leslye Headland has made it clear she’s got plenty of ideas for potential future seasons of the show) episode reveal that truth to both twins? How will the Stranger’s plans for either sister factor into it? Just how bad can things possibly get for the Jedi and the Republic alike, a century before things get even worse for both of those institutions in the prequels?
And, of course, as Headland herself has already teased: what major connections to the storied history of Star Wars‘ old Expanded Universe, now dubbed “Legends,” might make their way back into continuity tonight?
Suffice to say, we have plenty of questions we hope The Acolyte finale answers tonight. Stay tuned to io9 tomorrow for our spoiler-filled recap of the finale, and throughout the week for more insight and reflection about this latest chapter of the Star Wars saga. In the meantime, let us know what you’ve thought of the season so far, what your hopes for the finale are, and what you ultimately thought of how it all went down in the comments below!
