When it releases on Tuesday at 6 pm PT, fans can watch episode 3 of the show on Disney+. However, they will need a valid Disney+ subscription. The first two episodes of the series are currently streaming on Disney+.

The show is set to have eight episodes, with new episodes dropping each Tuesday.


What to expect from The Acolyte episode 3?

The first two episodes of the show focused on a Jedi Master being mysteriously murdered by an assassin known as Mae. It is revealed that Mae also has a twin sister, Osha, who used to be a former Jedi padawan. However, Osha is arrested for the murder instead of Mae, as it is believed that the latter is dead. Osha's previous master, Sol, however, believes that Osha is innocent and launches an investigation into the murders.

When Mae is discovered to be alive as the murderer, it is also revealed that she has a master who is trained in the dark side of the force. Fans also learned that Mae was murdering the Jedi because of something they did to her in the past. The first two episodes end with her escaping the Jedi and traveling to another planet so that she can murder another Jedi master to fulfill her mission.

In episode 3, fans can expect Mae to carry on with her mission to satisfy her Sith Lord as she aims to kill Jedi Master Kelnacca. They can also expect to see Mae and Osha's backstory, including how they came into the sights of the Jedi.
