Fight scenes made this episode the most watchable of all so far but I didn't care about what happened because I don't care about any of these characters. This may actually be the first time I watched something Star Wars and had zero empathy for anyone. I was hoping the
dark sider would be someone else. But no they went with the most glaringly obvious person and his justification for his life choices were mediocre. Also the helmet protects him from mind reading? Ok.

she thought this was x-men maybe?
 
I agree this was the best episode of the lot. I thought the lightsaber fights were actually quite good, the shish-kabob thing was interesting.
But overall the plot points are just a rehash of cliche's. They're going with w Freaky Friday and a Yoda (twin switch and powerful character plays dumb) and the whole thing is really nothing more that a Three's Company episode. My guess is that Mae didn't burn down the stone fortress, evil Jason was actually there and the implied blame is on her, and that could easily be solved by her saying "I didn't burn down the stone fortress."

They didn’t really tho… they mostly go into the rage baiting same as some of us have been saying… the discourse is ridiculous - the show is just mediocre.

From the comments:

"I love that throughout the years this channel's message has been, consistently, without fail: "You're all clowns. Stop it." "

That montage of Star Wars theory complaining about weird head jedi’ wookiepedia while they show footage of world poverty was hilarious.

The rage bait montage as well…

I think there's more going on with
Qimir
being the big bad. I think
his body has been possessed by one of the witches, probably Mother Koril. He had a line to the effect of "was that his name?" I also think the helmet thing and claiming to be a Sith are more misdirection. But I guess we'll see.

Oh theres definitely going to be another reveal of someone else behind these events. Whether it's one of the mothers or another Jedi (the bald green master), I'm certainly on the edge of my seat.

Just wanted to show off my birthday gift I got earlier this month… two Lego Star Wars Boarding sets. But instead of doing two straight builds and doing a staggered joining of sets as seen in the last page of the instructions, I instead did a reverse build of the second set to just continue the natural flow. No major redesign but I am happy with the results and want to thank my family for the great gift.

IRL you can get impaled and survive if it misses everything vital. However, the heat transfer from the blade might cause some collateral damage. We need one of our resident doctors on this.

OK, if you insist.

Being impaled anywhere through the torso by a high energy weapon should be fatal, although perhaps not immediately. It depends what was hit. A few high points:

ABDOMEN:
If you hit the inferior vena cava or aorta, although the lightsaber MIGHT be able to cauterize these two large blood pipes (but when they bleed, you can HEAR the bleeding), you would still have cut off the circulatory route throughout your abdomen and lower extremities. While you might not "bleed to death" it would be akin to kinking a garden hose... no throughput.

Your small intestine is arranged all over the place in your abdomen, while in general the colon runs right side up, across the upper middle, and down the left side, towards the pelvis/rectum. Your stomach is upper/middle. A saber passing through your "gut" is going to hit some part of the GI tract and spill GI and fecal contents into your abdominal cavity. Sepsis can take a while to set-up, but if not quickly treated, you die.

PELVIS:
Your ilac and femoral vessels carry the blood on its circuit through your legs. You are more likely to survive a saber injury here IF the vessels are cauterized, but you may lose the limb if not urgently repaired. Part of you intestines also sits in your pelvis, so again... more likely to also have a GI tract injury as well.

CHEST/THORAX:
Your heart is midline and to the left. Stab it with a saber... you don't live. Impale it clean through with a metal pipe (a la John Carter) you STILL shouldn't live more than a few fleeting moments... this it not a Temple of Doom scenario, kids. Impaling either lung will cause it to collapse, and can lead to a tension pneumothorax. People HAVE regularly survived one collapsed lung, though.

Upper chest: you can hit the trachea, innominate artery, aortic arch and/or external carotid arteries at the origin. Bad news.

...and we haven't even talked about all of the nerve and bone injuries that can come from the saber stab.
