I dont get it, these jedi are letting their emotions and attachments rule everything, its almost like the people writing the show don't actually know much about Jedi. What if Qui-Gon had acted this way over Anakin, can you imagine the trouncing he would have got from the Council.
This just makes no sense. Sol, if you cant behave yourself get your shebs back to the ship and stay there.

An absolutely correct summation. Gotta toast Lee Jung-jae again, for giving it his all, while having to mouth absolute dreck. For that matter IMO Moss and the Torbin guy, even if they have to mouth dreck. IMO either the bad editing or script will give you whiplash and plenty of WTF moments.
1) WTF Witch #1 sexually harassing Torbin and predictably, does um powerful magic for no reason whatsoever (smoke bomb) and then does the whole good mother speech after getting stabbed - all that, to make her a positive character/good mother even as she checks out?
2) A freakin' PADAWAN - since you must have some skill/talent to be a padawan - wimps out over homesickness when "the Jedi were the guardians of justice and peace IN THE GALAXY?" U mean Torbin became a Jedi in the hopes he could get a desk job on Coruscant? Then he charges off to attack an entire castle of witches - what the absolute *&^%
3) Sol can't tell Osha from Mae? Indara and Sol are about to slap each other? Fake tension what BS - WTF
4) So sociopath Mae isn't really all that bad, because she TRIED. She was just burning the book and things got out of hand.
5) Why does the ability of Force powers seem to come and go? Why couldn't Mae put the fire out with Force powers? Why couldn't Sol save both girls, if he has enough status to have a padawan - whether at that point he had one or not.
6) So being mind *&^%$ by the witches messes you up for life, so the Wookie was drawing witchy graffiti in exile and Torbin ended up floating for years with no bathroom, even tho they didn't do anything and no other Jedi ever notices the mental distress or a "disturbance in the Force", ever???? This is supposed to make some profound statement on male guilt - who knows, nothing gets explained anyway.

Can make some guesses where this is going, after smoke bomb/vapor trail #2.

What, your eyes didn't become watery over the PATHOS like KK and LH?
Myself, I asked self "WTF is going on here?"
I can't believe this is actually from a $180mil+ TV show actually made by Disney & Lucasfilm...
It's so bad, you can't do anything but laugh....
Kennedy when actually reading "The Acolyte" script....
The wookie was trying to detect for proper a story. Didn't find one.
Everything with the witches in this show feels like a stage performance.
That was B-Roll of Bob Iger in a Wookie costume desperately trying to find where all that money went. Turned out to be more compelling than the actual story so it made it into the final cut...

HASBRO can put out a Black Series edition.
A wookiee with a manbun wearing a dress and using a metal detector in a boring field of grass. That may be the single lamest image in the history of Star Wars.

Looks like a geico caveman ad.

Someone needs to make a montage of this, ride it like a bantha, young Leia outrunning her adult pursuers and the slow Vespa gang chase for a highlight of Disney Star Wars.

They should have had the wookie find an old Coca-Cola can with the metal detector just to drive the point home that this takes place in another galaxy.

Disney's so clevah!

All great points! I especially agree with your second point. The characterization of Torbin is all over the place. Why did he even become a Jedi in the first place? Lol
And just like so many other characters in this show, there’s no consistency with his character from one scene to the next.
