I'm sorry, that scene did little for me.

How many scenes have we had with jedi getting completely humbled by sith they didn't expect?

Yeah it was great seeing Jason destroy the Jedi. Jason? Yeah, that one hurt.

But he was also wiping everyone we were connected to, we lost the Jedi knight Vaughn the shirtless, as well as the greatest jedi in living history, padawan jecki the competent. It was an orgy and spectacle just to show that yes, evil dude is strong.

Afterwards, did it mean anything? He gave his monologue summing up the ending of Randianist philosophy the next episode, but we still barely had a motivation from him, he was just himself.

It had a lot of promise, but it was a series just to start a series and expand the franchise into the high republic.

They needed more. If you took Andor out of star wars it would still be incredible, if you took the acolyte out of star wars it would make even less sense.
