In The Mandalorian Season 2 Episode 5, Mando (Pedro Pascal) heads to Corvus to find former Jedi Ahsoka Tano (Rosario Dawson). On Corvus, The Magistrate asks Mando to kill a Jedi, offering a pure beskar staff as payment. Mando asks where to find the Jedi. While looking for her, Mando is ambushed by Ahsoka. He tells her that Bo-Katan sent him , and he’s there to ask her about the Child.
Ahsoka communicates with the Child telepathically and we learn more about his past, and his real name, Grogu. He was raised in the Jedi Temple on Coruscant and was later taken and hidden from the Empire for many years. She tests Grogu’s abilities and finds that Grogu has formed a strong attachment to Mando, aka Din Djarin. While this episode moved the series forward and taught us about Baby Yoda’s backstory, it also had more Easter eggs and Star Wars references.
