The Mandalorian and Grogu changes the balance of power in the Star Wars galaxy. The Hutts are gone, the Imperial shadow council is wounded--but the real winner is Grand Admiral Thrawn. In this video, we explain how Thrawn manipulated events in the movie to bolster his control of the Imperial remnant, and how it all leads up to "Somehow Palpatine Returned."
