As Osha explored her surroundings, the camera zoomed out and a ship which resembled the Star Wars: The Old Republic Galactic Starfighter on the left side of the screen indicating a broader connection to the Star Wars lore, as reported by With Ashley and Co.

The Unknown Planet also bore similarities to that of Bal’demnic, a Cortosis-rich planet, in the Auril sector of the Outer Rim or it could be the planet Luker Skywalk was living on in The Force Awakens and The Last Jedi. After all, the similarities are there between the Ahch-To and the Unknown Planet.

Osho’s encounter with The Stranger

Osho’s encounter with Qimir otherwise known as The Stranger has certainly piqued fan’s interest. At the end of episode 5, Qimir shows humanity and just a little bit of extra care for Osho’s well-being by healing her wound and covering her with a blanket.

In episode 6, Qimir was all the audience could talk about. There was a certain chemistry between Osho and The Stranger but could also be just another manipulative technique of teh latter. The encounter between the two will certainly probe deeper truths amidst the dark themes of the show.
