What can fans expect from Dune: Prophecy episode 5?
Debut of Tabu
Fans can expect to see Indian actress Tabu finally make her big debut in Dune: Prophecy episode 5. She will be taking on the role of Sister Francesca who is a very powerful member of the Sisterhood and is also said to have a romantic past with Emperor Javicco Corrino in the show. So, with her arrival, fans can expect to see her try and cause some imbalance in the Imperium on Salusa Secundus.
With Desmond Hart having the Emperor in his grasp, the teaser for the upcoming episode showed that the Sisterhood will try to influence Corrino. It looks like their way of doing that is by sending over Francesca so that she can influence him and get him on the Sisterhood's side to showcase just how dangerous Desmond is.
Learn more about Desmond Hart
While Desmond Hart has showcased his powers very effectively and made it clear that his loyalty lies with the Imperium and the Emperor, not much is known about him—specifically how he got his powers and survived being eaten by Shai Hulud.
So, going into Dune: Prophecy episode 5, fans can expect to learn more about Desmond Hart and his goals. It's clear that he is connected to the reckoning in some way given that he was born twice in blood and sand as well, and it certainly looks like there is more to him than meets the eye.
However, fans will have to tune in to the show to learn more about it.
Is Lila the key to the reckoning?
With Lila also being awake now, after previously dying due to the Agony, it looks like she will have more to do as well. The preview for the upcoming episode teases that definitely, and it looks like she will also be warning the Sisterhood of the dangers that Desmond will bring along with him.
But with her also being born in blood and sand now, it could be believed that she may also be connected to the reckoning.
Stay tuned for further updates on Dune: Prophecy episode 5.
