Provided the charlatan Jedi doesn’t show up later on in the series I wonder if it could be implied that Reva kills him after invading his mind. Maybe using the sound of her lightsaber screaming through with a flash of Bright crimson flashing the screen - black out to the next scene. Her letting him go just seems very inconsistent with her character at this point.
Agreed. I think that very inconsistency more or less confirm that he will show up again. To be fair, it’s another perfect example of how the writers of this show are all over the place; going against the moral of the very characters they write (most likely just to have a known actor pop up again).

They should watch all seasons of Better Call Saul and Breaking Bad, analyze it and realize how good, female characters are written. Even for short appearances.Ironically, Deborah Chow and Kelley Dixon are BB/BCS alum. The director and editor both contributed to those shows haha
True, but Deborah only directed one episode of BCS (and nothing for BB). I wouldn’t say her limited time with their excellent staff have formed her career or abilities.
As for Kelley Dixon, having been a part of excellent writing for YEARS, just baffles me how she could be a part of this badly-executed Inquisitor storyline. This screams Disney interference to me. You just can’t be a part of well-oiled writing machine for years and years, given awards and praise and totally understanding the depth of character growth, and then go on to a Star Wars project and write some of the worst character interactions seen in that universe.
Kelley should’ve done alterations to the Inquisitor Storyline, and Deborah Chow should’ve done edits to her final cuts upon seeing the bad execution of the two chase sequences. Disney, however, probably wanted things differently - and for all I know they both were ruled out from doing final edits or major changes. Disney sure does have a long history of taking total control, and firing you if you don’t comply. And who doesn’t want that bag of money even if your praise for directing or writing goes out the window for a year or two? I sure would.
However, as I see it, the directing is what let down the first episode the most (The Leia Chase scene) - and that falls on the director, not the writers. It broke tone and believability, and instantly took a dark story and turned it into the realms of a silly cartoon for five minutes.
