    That’s from the latest Disney Gallery episode of the Mandalorian.

    I felt he realised that he wasn't going to get to use Grogu for his evil plans, it seems logical that he thought if he couldn't have Grogu, the Jedi wouldn't have him either. Whether that was a specific order given to him, remains to be seen. I think it's still open on whether Gideon is acting independently or is under the command of a greater being.

    That’s the biggest question about him right now, and a lot of his efficacy as a villain kind of depends on it. He might weirdly come off as more competent and dangerous if he has a boss than if he doesn’t, because long term goals could be served by his actions in spite of his failure.

    I'm wondering about the next step now. Whose prisoner is he; The New Republic's or Bo-Katan's? If the New Republic have him, interrogate him and are allowed access to the databanks on his cruiser then that could be the jumping off point for Rangers. Investigating what the Imperial Remnant are really up to in the Outer Rim.

    That's a great point. The intel gotten from his capture ought to be more than enough fuel for "rangers of the New Republic" to launch whatever their mission may be.

    I'm assuming that Gideon being from ISB will become relevant again at some point. So far his exact role in the Empire remains a bit of a mystery.

    So which Moffs do we have remaining alive post-empire that we know of in canon?

    Thrawn (I'm going to count him even though he wasn't a moff)
    Gideon
    Randd
    Pereez? (I think probably dead)
    Maksim? (Possibly)
    Royen
    Senchiko? (I'm going to guess this one is dead but not confirmed)
    Mors? (Possibly)
    Haveland? (Likely)
    Ssaria? (Likely)
    Nyall
    Seward? (Likely)
    Raythe? (Not sure)
    Adelhard
    Therbon? (I think probably dead)
    Keong
    Azardi
    Boyse? (Does he count as canon?)
    Stattata? (Not sure)

    I wonder what happened to Rampart, I wonder if he became a Moff.

    He might.

    Though, whatever his rank, I expect the bad batch will end up killing him in the long run.

    Bad Batch series finale Rampart either gets killed or promoted to moff. I could see him in shows like Andor.

    Interesting video on Moff Gideon.

    I also recommend subscribing to the channel as it's pretty good and hasn't gone downhill like all the other Star Wars YouTubers out there.

    (Not that he didn't have drip before, but it's more pronounced now)

    He has acquired the Darth Vader drip. But does he have Rizz?

    He is so borderline ridiculous that I want to watch him die just so I can escape his overly histrionic prattling and mustache twirling and then there is the other part of him that legit has drip.

    He is such a classic EU Imperial Remnant villain at this point. Galak Fyyar vibes.

    Kind of funny to see them just fully embracing the silliness of the old EU.

    Okay no I’ll tell you @Sarge drip is just basically good fashion. It’s like an evolved version of “your looking snazzy” is that a thing people say or have I just made up a word. To urban dictionary I go.

    a solid tip for all you boomers and millennials and Gen X out there if you ever want to find out slang just look it up on Urban dictionary.

    You know how showy jewelry is bling? Showy clothing is drip.

    ETA: I see JKF got to the urban dictionary first.

    I really want to know if Gideon has a Mandalorian past, or if his evil plan is to just culturally appropriate his way into Galactic domination.[face_laugh]
    He clearly wants to be a Vader cosplayer... but he also clearly would enjoy a day out on the space beach with Palpatine, cackling while punting puppies to see who can have them go *splat* the furthest away.

    Esposito is like McDiarmid; he may be having too much fun in the role, and I'm there for it!

    There is a vast difference between Gideon and Sidious in that Sidious was being sarcastic and/or sardonic the vast majority of the time in order to provoke the Dark Side in people, even through simple speech.

    Gideon actually just talks this way. And it makes Grievous seem subdued in comparison.

    Campy as it is, I'm consistently enjoying his: "We have to stop meeting like this."
