After the first 3 episodes felt like a 00's Disney teen sitcom I considered giving up on this show, but this week felt more coherent to me. The forests of Khofar is the best locale so far, the conversational writing has improved and so the acting feels more natural (mostly). I'm still not thrilled that the Jedi Order is being portrayed as mostly antagonistic, and I'm a bit concerned that the best episode so far is one in which very little happens, but the last scene actually has me excited for next week. Here's hoping that the second half overshadows the rocky start.
Oh yeah... I srsly wonder who the Sith? master is lol
Maybe it's someone who just happened to be hanging around
I'm more interested in seeing him kill a couple of the unnamed Jedi. Hopefully they handle it better then the first fight scene.

Yea yea, the potions guy ikik... I was talking more in terms of the name. The Sith name that is. I've seen ppl say "Qimir" quite a lot.

Oh I'm definitely expecting that to happen. I rlly doubt any Jedi is getting out of there alive including Sol. Sol did the cliche "I'll tell u what happened when we get back", and then dying.
The Sith? fellow clearly is eyeing for Osha. Maybe he manipulates her by re-emphasising the lie that Mae killed her family? Perhaps trapping her into sunk cost by making her kill Mae?
I agree with some of your points, but I have to disagree on the Jedi Order's portrayal--I love it. It feels so in line with what we got in the prequels, that this is the organization that became the failed order that couldn't stop Palpatine, that was corrupted by the Jedi not following their own code, and this is one example of how they got there (which I feel Ki Adi Mundi's inclusion further cements.
But this is 200 years before the fall. We're supposed to see how the Jedi lost their way. This is just a bunch of incompetent assholes with authority. The witches call them kidnappers and they barely deny it while nearly embodying it. Where's the honor? Where's the mysticism? Why must we continually suffer this bag of dicks while being told 'this is what they were always supposed to be.'
Look at the Roman Empire. Did it fall overnight? We have tons of stories about the great things they did. Wasn't there also shitty stuff happening?
So many of the recent stories have made the universe more real. I like that. Sorry if you don't.

To be pedantic, it’s 132 BBY. So 115 years before the fall.
