Chapter 16: The Rescue - S2-E8
Continuity mistake: In the scene with all the Mandalorians just hanging out at some bar, Boba Fett retorts at Sasha Banks' character; "if it isn't the quacta calling the stifling slimy." There's a cut and his rangefinder is inexplicably tilted forward. It is back to normal in the rest of the scene. (00:06:15)
Chapter 16: The Rescue - S2-E8
Continuity mistake: In the bridge shooting scene, Gina Carano has the blaster in her left hand, except in the last shot before one single stormtrooper tumbles off the bridge and into space; the blaster then is in her right. (00:14:55)
Chapter 16: The Rescue - S2-E8
Continuity mistake: When the two blue Mandalorians surprise-attack the stormtroopers that are behind Cara and Fennec, the troopers fall down like bowling pins; the ones in the front are falling off the bridge and the ones behind them fall prone against the edges of the bridge. Except in the following shot it is not the case, nobody seemingly fell off the bridge and the first people we see are belly up, not down. (00:15:05)
Chapter 16: The Rescue - S2-E8
Continuity mistake: After the sequence of the Dubstep Troopers charging with tubes bursting free, the all-female team is in a cargo holding. Fennec says "Cover me"; then she advances walking in two entirely different stances between shots. (00:16:00)
Chapter 16: The Rescue - S2-E8
Continuity mistake: Fennec kills the stormtrooper that Cara was about to bludgeon with her jammed gun; her braid is behind her when the camera is behind her, in front of her shoulder when the camera is in front of her. (00:17:15)
Chapter 16: The Rescue - S2-E8
Continuity mistake: When Skywalker rushes the last Dark Trooper he holds the lightsaber in his left hand. Scene switches and he has it suddenly in his right. (00:30:30)
Chapter 16: The Rescue - S2-E8
Continuity mistake: At the end, when The Mandalorian takes his helmet off so Grogu can see his face, the helmet is placed on the floor facing backwards. When Grogu is placed on the floor, it is now facing forward. Then when Luke walks away, the final shot shows it facing backwards again. (00:36:50)
Chapter 16: The Rescue - S2-E8
Continuity mistake: In the opening recap of the episode a scene is shown where the Mandalorian is sending a speech to Moff Gideon, which was originally from the end of episode 15. In episode 15, he says "He (Grogu) means more to me than you will ever know," but in the recap he says "It means more to me than you will ever know."
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.
