Moff Gideon Plots Revenge and Galactic Conquest Behind the Scenes of ‘The Mandalorian’

The latest episode sees Gideon emerge from the shadows to enact his evil schemes after hiding for a large portion of the season.
His goal is using cloning technology and ancient combat skills to build an army that can defeat anyone in the galaxy, from Jedi to Mandalorians.
The Imperial officer betrays Bo-Katan in order to wipe out the Mandalorians once and for all after they attempted to stop his massacre of innocent lives.
With most of the sects coming together under Bo-Katan and preparing for a fight, the episode ends in a cliffhanger that promises an intense battle to come in the season finale.
References to Thrawn and Palpatine hint that Gideon's sinister plans could have galaxy-wide consequences reaching into future Star Wars stories.
