Some heavy hitters on both light and dark sides make their presence felt.
How would all these twists and turns impact what happened in the finale?
[Spoilers]
SPOILERS
All the big players in the finale eventually converged at the sight of the alleged vergence - Brendok.
Sol and the Stranger engaged in an epic battle that ended when Sol destroyed the Sith’s lightsaber.
Sol admitted to killing the twins’ mother. This confession was overheard by Osha.
So distraught over the news, Osha shockingly Force-choked her former master to death.
The move completed Osha’s turn to the dark side, the blue Kyber crystal in Sol’s lightsaber turning red when in her hands. Osha agreed to become the Stranger’s apprentice if he would let Mae go, and the Sith wiped Mae’s memory so she could not lead the Jedi to them.
Mae was brought to Master Vanestra who needed her assistance tracking down a pupil of her before he turned to evil - a revelation that the Stranger was indeed a former Jedi Padawan.
Vanestra lied to members of the Senate and said that Sol had been a rogue Jedi who killed all his former accomplices on Brendok and then took his own life.
The final scene showed Vanestra entering the chambers of a famous Jedi Master, Yoda !
An earlier appearance from the dark side, a shadowy figure emerged from the cave to look out at the duo (Oshamir). His identity was not confirmed, but his appearance bore a striking resemblance to Darth Plagueis.
