Warning: SPOILERS are coming for The Acolyte!
When The Acolyte began, Mae had embraced the dark aspect of the Force and was killing Jedi who helped change her life 16 years earlier, and Osha had long since disappeared from the Jedi Order, worked as a meknek, and was shocked to be informed that my sister was alive. When Season 1 finished streaming to Disney subscribers, Amandla Stenberg’s characters found themselves in drastically different positions: Mae had been erased, and Osha agreed to exercise with Qimir after killing her former master, Sol. So after starting out as enemies, those two are about to become close, and Principal Hanelle M. Culpepper told us why she’s so pleased with how things ended between them.
These thoughts on the subject came about when I asked Culpepper, who is the only director to have directed television episodes of the Star Wars and Star Trek franchises, what kind of reactions she and her team expected from enthusiasts upon learning that Osha and Qimir are now allies. Instead, he shared his thoughts on what happened in the Season 1 finale, telling CinemaBlend:
I mean, I can tell you how I felt, and I know from reading the script. . . This is where she’s unfinished. She is the one who really discovers. . . to locate herself on the path that she was unfinished. take. And I think what’s wonderful about that component of the issue is that when you deny that component of yourself, you end up filling yourself with anger, and it’s more wonderful to let yourself be who you need to be and make your feelings explicit. what do you need. Explicit to reach a more wonderful position and get to where you are determined to be. So she was meant to be with him. That’s what worries me. I hope enthusiasts share the way I felt. And of course, the performance that Manny and Amandla were banking on and the connection they had and the chemistry between them seemed good.
Jason Micallef wrote the season 1 finale of The Acolyte, aptly named “The Acolyte,” and Hanelle M. Culpepper got completely into this plot that he conceived. According to her, Osha was destined to turn to the dark side, and the Force strangled Sol after being informed that he had killed her and that Mae’s mother had pushed her over the edge. While performing this action, Osha would also bleed the kyber crystal displayed on the Sunlightsaber, causing it to change from blue to red. To protect Mae, Osha accessed Pasa with Qimir so that he can erase his sister’s memory, and now she will know the tactics of the Sith as he does.
Of course, anyone who’s seen the Star Wars movies knows that those two, in the end, are destined for tragedy. That’s because Darth Plagueis, who briefly made the impression in this episode, will one day exercise Palpatine as his ultimate apprentice, and with the Sith’s rule of two still in effect, well, 4 is a crowd maximum. But if season 2 of The Acolyte happens, at least we will be able to enjoy the adventure of seeing what Osha and Qimir are like when they work very well in combination and get more of that chemistry between Amandla Stenberg and Manny Jacinto that Hanelle M, ArrayCulpepper talked about.
Then there is the mystery of Vernestra Rwoh’s afterlife with Qimir, as it was revealed that he was once her apprentice and she believed him to be dead. Venestra would have possibly blamed Sol for the deaths of those Jedi and the Force witches before the Jedi Council. However, it turns out that she is now determined to discover the truth about Qimir. Although she visited Yoda at the end of “The Acolyte”, it remains to be seen if he will participate in her investigation to find out if this was a mistake.
