ACOLYTE Episode 3 Secret Sith Lord REVEALED!? — Anakin Skywalker Origins Explained

Mother Anasaya was dead in the burning temple as Sol and Osha are leaving it. But, no signs of Mother Coral. And, that segment was missing a lot of information, so obviously from Osha's point of view. I think the reason that they were both confused that the other survived is that Mother Coral saved Mae as Sol was focused on saving Osha. Each took a child to raise and train, opposite sides of the force. Mother Coral is much more likely to be the Dark Adept / Sith master. There was already foreshadowing that she thought Osha was too weak. Honestly, I wouldn't be surprised if she is the one that killed the other witches and destroyed the temple once Mother Anasaya mentioned Osha wanting to leave to be a Jedi. Then blamed it on the fire by Mae and used the regret that Mae might have had to strengthen her connection to the dark side, like Anakin. In addition to the anger against the 4 Jedi.

The twist is that the twins are a horcrux and the big baddie is actually Voldemort.

I was caught off guard by the “for screen crush I’m Colton” who is definitely not trapped in a tv somewhere at Ryan’s

We were shown a presumably dead Mother Aniseya with no sign of Coral, so it makes more sense that Coral was involved in the coven dying and Mae fully breaking bad. Aniseya was fully against the Jedi taking her girls, but when Osha said she wanted to leave the coven to become a Jedi, Aniseya grudgingly and tearfully allowed her to go. Although I don't deny that Aniseya could be the anonymous Sith, it just doesn't seem likely to me. Coral was the more strict disciplinarian compared to Aniseya and we all know how the need for control can lead to the dark side (ask Morgoth). So I'm more willing to believe that Coral could be the anonymous Sith more than Aniseyah, who probably died as she was portrayed to be on camera. Also, MT pointed out on Heavy Spoilers that when Mae attacked Osha for wanting to leave the coven to become a Jedi, Coral pulled Mae away and we didn't see Mae again until she went dark and started burning her room up.

Plagues would have been a teenager when this is happening. I think it's darth Tenibris before he took Plagues as his apprentice

i hear that Qimir (Mae's accomplice) is the secret sith. he straight up turns evil when he notices Osha.

Hmm, I believe it. That whole, "will you carry on my legacy after I die" line at the ritual makes sense in the way of, I will inhabit your body. And the force tattoo is the binding, portal, conduit to achieving this. They'll probably fight the Sith baddie, they'll die, it was the mother. But surprise, 1up, extra life, spare body. And round 2, I've a younger body to jump into. But you know, power of love will probably save the day when the sister realizes, oops, I don't want to be a vessel

Why do I get the feeling that all this theorizing will just all go out the window by the time this show ends? We're gonna get our expectations subverted again!

Everyone on the internet seems to be hating this episode. I’m just trying to understand it before I jump to conclusions.

If Mother Anasaya created her children so she could transfer her consciousness into their bodies, then you can't say she isn't really evil. That's pretty damned evil, Colton.

What if the mother did the essence transfer during the flashback and so the May we are seeing is actually inhabited by her mother, but May is still in there somewhere, hence why we see her communicating with Osha without knowing it…..or maybe not

The Star Wars galaxy is supposed to have more than a million inhabited worlds. I hope they do something new that's not connected to previously established lore. Does the coven have to be connected to the Sith or the Night Sisters? Why can't different religions and cults develop around the Force? Heck, we have only one planet and there have been thousands of religions throughout history. How many different religions would a galaxy of a million inhabited worlds have? Especially around a mystical power that can be proven to exist.

What if Mother Anasaya is the Sith Apprentice? Many Sith Apprentices try to find their own apprentice before they try to take down their masters.

I don’t think they should try and link it in anyway to the films and sky walkers I like the fact that it’s kinda fresh and new story

YOU'RE IN A TV THEY AREN'T TELLING YOU

I really appreciate how Screencrush keep it professional with it's Unbiased take on a show for somehow i haven't watched yet but allowing me to make my own judgment about the show on when I do.

interesting how short-lived the "k!ll younglings" shirt was. probably the smart move, lmao

That 70 BBY is 49 years after the events of the Acolytes. Not 10 years.

I think the mystery sith is coral. She is most likely responsible for destroying her sister's by poison and their home by blowing it up. She knew Mae was gonna be super powerful and used these events to blame the Jedi and then take control of Mae by lying to her and blaming the Jedi. Coral in this story is most likely an apprentice to a stronger sith. Mostly likely it's Tenebris*. Overall the master sith is definitely manipulating coral into doing his bidding by both helping create the twins and then train her for him. Like sidious' real goal was to get to Anakin. Sidious only used dooku to train Anakin and make him stronger knowing that Anakin would replace dooku one day.

I'm still wondering where Darth Jar Jar fits into all this . . .
