The fifth episode of The Acolyte titled Night just premiered on June 25, and it was perhaps the biggest episode of the season yet. Fans finally got an answer of who the Sith was behind the mask, and it was none other than Qimir. The episode also saw Yord and Jecki dying, which will certainly have many fans sad to see.

With so much going on in episode 5, fans will be excited to see where episode 6 goes when it premieres next week on July 2, 2024, exclusively on Disney+. The title for the upcoming episode has not been revealed yet.

Previously on The Acolyte episode 5, fans saw a grand showdown between Sol and Qimir. Moreover, Osha and Mae also reunited, with the latter switching places with her twin sister and making it on board the Jedi ship. The episode also ended with Qimir discovering Osha, which certainly is going to take the character to some interesting places.

Recap of The Acolyte episode 5

Episode 5 of the show picked up from where the episode 4 events ended. It saw the Jedi fighting the Sith figure, who was making quick work of them as well. After Master Sol challenged the Sith to a fight, both of them engaged in a duel. But the Sith quickly diverted his attention to Mae which then led to a duel with Jecki, who he ended up killing.

The Sith's identity was then revealed to be Qimir, and when Yord challenged him, he killed the Jedi as well. Sol almost beat Qimir to death for that but Osha stopped him before landing the final blow, saying that it's not the Jedi way. Osha then set the insects of Khofar on Qimir which let her and Sol escape, but the latter was shot with a stun gun by Mae.

Osha and Mae then reunited but got into an argument as Mae still harbored resentment for the Jedi. She force pushed her sister and knocked her out, which led to Mae assuming Osha's identity and getting on Sol's ship after he woke up, while an unconscious Osha was discovered by Qimir. This is where the episode concluded.


What can fans expect from The Acolyte episode 6?

Going into episode 6, fans are likely to see Mae learn more about the Jedi and perhaps resume her revenge mission. Knowing that she still harbors discontentment for Master Sol, it'll be interesting to see her infiltrate the order on Coruscant and further explore those she considers enemies.

On Osha's side, viewers can expect her to have a conversation with Qimir as well. Knowing that Qimir is looking for an acolyte of his own, perhaps he can see Osha now being that acolyte, considering Mae betrayed him. He also hinted at Sol having some darkness within him, which fans can also expect to have further revelations about in the coming weeks.
