I have a strong feeling we’re going to eventually learn that this episode was in the middle of production when the pandemic lockdowns hit. The last 15-20 minutes just smacks of being cobbled together from disparate elements they had to film piecemeal over the spring/summer without having everyone together all at once. It wasn’t just Luke that looked like absolute ass - Pedro Pascal’s head looked very awkwardly cut and pasted into the scene, and he looked way too different from when he last removed his helmet just an episode or two ago, which doesn’t make sense unless there was a LONG time between filming those two.

Also, super irritated that the Mando/Bo-Katan conflict that had just presented itself was put on pause for Luke to show up and do his twirly light show, only for them to never unpause it, leaving that thread dangling without it feeling like a proper cliffhanger.
