Yes. I loved it. Yes. It rattled around my brain all week. And oh yeah. I think that was him.

StarWars.com is dropping some great stuff this week, including
Bounty Hunting Highlights: 5 of Our Favorite Moments from The Mandalorian – “Chapter 9: The Marshal”
Last we saw them, the Mandalorian and the Child headed off to the stars after defeating Moff Gideon and his forces on Nevarro. The Season 2 premiere of The Mandalorian finds the armored hero, a.k.a. Din Djarin, on a mission to bring his young charge to the Jedi. “Chapter 9: The Marshal” is filled with great character moments, thrilling action, and more than a few surprises, making for a fantastic start to the season.
Here is my favorite of Dan’s highlights:
4. Tusken team-up.
Taking a page from Kuiil’s playbook, the Mandalorian enlists the Tusken Raiders for help. He speaks to them in their language, and even convinces Cobb Vanth (the Marshal) that they’re not the monsters he thinks. It’s a smart follow-up to Mando’s first encounter with the desert dwellers, showing his growth as a character.
You can catch the other five (and a whole lot more of Dan’s great stuff) over on The Mothership.
Meanwhile, scroll down the front page of StarWars.com and you’ll find:
