Continuity mistake: Back at the tavern, Cara is telling Mando a bit about her history and the peacekeeping duties. During the scene, the light on the table is different; the Child's bowl of soup is either in a spot in the sun or in the dusk. (00:10:05)
Continuity mistake: When Mando dismisses the farmers' money as being "not enough", the bag goes from the guy's right hand to his left between shots. (00:11:50)
Continuity mistake: Baby Yoda's hands are on/off the cart as the kids approach him going "Awwwww." (00:14:00)
Continuity mistake: When the widow tells Mando "Please come in", notice the rope she is tying; it reaches barely her waist, but in the next shot it starts off well below her knees. (00:14:25)
Continuity mistake: When the widow tells Mando "I brought you some food", suddenly Mando is holding a rag and polishing a knife; he had nothing in his hand when he stepped towards the door. (00:16:30)
Visible crew/equipment: When Omera brings The Mandalorian some food and says how she noticed he hasn't eaten, a boom mic can be briefly seen just above her head. (00:16:33)
Continuity mistake: When Mando tells the widow that he was not much older than the kids playing outside the last time he removed the helmet, her hair is combed over the wrong shoulder, left instead of right like in the rest of the scene. (00:17:00)
Plot hole: Mando tells Cara that news will travel of what happened on the planet and it's unsafe to stay there. Then he says that he'll go and leave the kid to live there. He is a bounty hunter, a veteran at the profession. He can't have forgotten about fobs and how they work, and that the bounty is on the kid. Wherever Mando himself goes makes zero difference. (00:31:25)
Continuity mistake: When Baby Yoda chirps at Winta, she has her hands off him, then on him again. (00:35:40)
Chapter 5: The Gunslinger - S1-E5
Audio problem: Amy Sedaris hands the rifle to one of the droids as she walks closer to the baby. The droid puts the gun down and a sound is played as if he set it on something solid, but in the next shot the rifle is gone and there's nothing but sand around there. (00:06:50)
Chapter 5: The Gunslinger - S1-E5
Other mistake: In the end credits, Troy Kotsur is credited as "Tuskan Raider Scout #1", obviously that should be "Tusken." (00:31:30)
Chapter 5: The Gunslinger - S1-E5
Plot hole: Something about the timing of the episode does not work. The two pursuers see in their first day of chase a dewback (animal mount). They storm Fennec's position when it gets dark. They quickly capture her, and then Mando wanders the desert to catch the dewback. It takes him the whole night to do so and get back to the encampment, which seems an absurdly long time considering he had it in his sight (and was even sending for it his partner who had no thermal vision). This also implies that Fennec was in the middle of the desert with no mean of transportation of her own.
Chapter 5: The Gunslinger - S1-E5
Character mistake: Mando's xenophobia against droids is so strong that he would not have them repair his ship (even harmless maintenance droids), nor take a cab with a droid driver, yet minutes later he talks to a droid bartender about a very sensitive topic like the search for illegal work.
Chapter 5: The Gunslinger - S1-E5
Revealing mistake: Tattooine has two suns, but Mando and every object cast a single shadow.
Chapter 6: The Prisoner - S1-E6
Character mistake: Bill Burke's chest holsters are completely not practical and unfit for the kind of guns he's carrying. Just look at the scene when he's leaning towards the Child to grab him, and watch how awkwardly his arm bends. (00:12:30)
Chapter 6: The Prisoner - S1-E6
Continuity mistake: When the Mandalorian says "Easy, nobody has to get hurt here", the wimpy security guard is holding the alarm transmitter in a different way (the hand is angled in a different direction). (00:19:20)
Chapter 6: The Prisoner - S1-E6
Continuity mistake: When Satan himself (or not) hurls the sentry droid into another one and a blast ensues, the crazy overacting Twi'lek is either hopping with sadistic laughter or shielding her eyes from the explosion depending on the shot. (00:21:40)
Chapter 6: The Prisoner - S1-E6
Continuity mistake: The sequence with Mayfeld jacking the door lock of the cell is obviously different takes, since the white lights on the control panel are inconsistent, and his left-hand position and Xi'an's facial expressions are different depending on the camera angle. (00:21:50)
Chapter 6: The Prisoner - S1-E6
Character mistake: During the fight with the Devaronian, Mando at one point has both guns pointed at him, but his finger in the first shot is not even on the trigger. (00:29:10)
Chapter 6: The Prisoner - S1-E6
Continuity mistake: When Mando fights Burg, Burg drags his head across the control panel then tosses him to the ground, then picks him up. It looks like one fluid series of actions, but Mando is on the ground in different parts of the room each time. (00:29:20)
Answer: In (non-canon) Legends, Thrawn was the central character of a trilogy of novels by Timothy Zahn. He was a Chiss officer in the Imperial Navy, who rose to the rank of grand admiral despite being non-human. Thrawn was brought into canon in the Star Wars Rebels series, where he commanded the Empire's Seventh Fleet and led the occupation of Lothal, which was opposed by the series' protagonists including Ahsoka Tano. In the final episode of Rebels, the Jedi and Rebel Ezra Bridger commands Purrgil space whales to drag Thrawn's Star Destroyer into hyperspace, jumping to an unknown location with himself and Thrawn on board. The final scene of the series shows Ahsoka Tano and Sabine Wren leaving Lothal to search for Bridger, and presumably Thrawn.
