Jar Jar Binks (The Real Character) Totally Helped Save Grogu - IMDb. Warning! This article contains Spoilers for The Mandalorian season 3, episode 4.
Who Saved Grogu From Order 66? As depicted in "Chapter 20: The Foundling," Grogu was rescued from the attack on the Jedi Temple by Jedi Master Kelleran Beq.
In The Mandalorian Season 3 Episode 4, we finally learned who saved Grogu from the Jedi Temple during Order 66. None other than Jedi Master Kelleran Beq, The Sabered Hand. But who is Master Beq and why is his appearance in The Mandalorian so important?
After ably deflecting the bolts from the clone troopers, Beq took off on the speeder through the skies of nighttime Coruscant with Grogu by his side. Still chased by the clones, he avoided their attack, and, with the help of some Senate guards, he and Grogu boarded a ship and escaped via lightspeed.
The Mandalorian season 3, episode 4 strongly implies Padmé Amidala, or agents acting on her behalf, were responsible for rescuing Grogu.
While fans don't know the state of Grogu's well-being in the sequel trilogy, his ties to Mandalore might explain why Kylo Ren doesn't kill him. It's likely Grogu stays with Din Djarin and the Mandalorians, and never returns to embark on his training with Luke.
It was believed that Grogu would eventually become a victim of Kylo Ren's destruction of Luke's Jedi Order. However, The Book of Boba Fett revealed that Grogu chose to follow the Way of the Mandalorian rather than become a Jedi, sparing him from Kylo Ren's wrath.
Why did Anakin not kill Grogu? Ahsoka: “At the end of the clone wars, when the Empire rose to power, he was hidden. Someone took him from the temple.” For now, this is all we know about how Grogu escaped, but to answer your question, Anakin didn't kill him because he wasn't there.
Instead of a run-in with Anakin, Filoni and Favreau used the opportunity to re-introduce another familiar face to a galaxy far, far away. Grogu shockingly met and was saved by Jedi Kelleran Beq (Ahmed Best), a character some may be familiar with from Lucasfilm's "Star Wars: Jedi Temple Challenge" game show.
Some fans even hypothesized that Grogu literally was a "Baby Yoda" and represented a reincarnated form of the Jedi Master. This is impossible due to Grogu having already been born when Yoda was still alive. Thus, while the Mandalorian is Grogu's adoptive father, his actual parents remain a mystery.
Since it was revealed in The Mandalorian season 2 that Grogu was at the Jedi Temple during Order 66, many fans have concocted both plausible and far-fetched theories on who or what managed to save him.
Like Anakin Skywalker, Grogu has an unusually high midi-chlorian count, which is why Gideon believed he could use Grogu's blood to make his clones wield the Force.
Zeb is intelligent, but he's also quick to anger. He frequently became the most violent member of the Spectres. His recent appearance in The Mandalorian demonstrates the latest direction his life has taken.
Basically, Grogu is either the illicit love child of Yoda and Yaddle, was conceived by the Force, or was conceived by same unnamed individuals from Yoda's species.
Beyond the Force powers exhibited by his species, it is also possible that Grogu specifically is of special importance to the Jedi Order. The Mandalorian is seeing him begin to embrace both Jedi and Mandalorian teachings, something that may give him a unique position in the galaxy.
The Mandalorian and Grogu visit the planet Tatooine in "Chapter 5: The Gunslinger", during which the Mandalorian leaves Grogu in the care of a mechanic named Peli Motto (Amy Sedaris).
The canonical comic Star Wars: Darth Vader #7 confirms the younglings' deaths caused Anakin grief, self-loathing, hatred and pain, fueling his descent even further into the dark side.
Grogu chose the latter, meaning he gave up his chance at getting his own lightsaber. After picking Din's gift of beskar chainmail armor, Grogu left the other option of Yoda's lightsaber in the hands of Luke.
Luke Skywalker eventually had the lightsaber in his possession after Yoda's death in 4 ABY. Five years later, he offered the weapon to Grogu in a choice against obtaining beskar armor. However, Grogu chose the beskar armor over the lightsaber and went back to Din Djarin.
This is confirmed later in the movie when Obi-Wan informs Padme that Anakin killed them. Both are torn apart with hurt and confusion, trying to make sense of something so terrible.
Grogu survived the Great Jedi Purge and was hidden away. Grogu was rediscovered by a remnant of the Galactic Empire after it fell, and became known to many simply as "The Child," during the New Republic Era.
One of the main reasons why Yoda would've won against Anakin is simply because he was far better trained than him. Yoda could see the moves his opponents were going to make before they made them; therefore, battling against Anakin would've put him at a far heavier advantage.
The addition of the IG-12 device allows Grogu to be more involved in the action of the show and makes him less like the baby he was initially. Like it or not, the improved communication and mobility have helped Grogu finally grow up.
As such, it's very unlikely he will ever become one with the Force — at least not anytime soon. While it seemed Star Wars had “removed” Grogu/Baby Yoda/the Child in The Mandalorian Season 2, he returned in The Book of Boba Fett (2021) the following year.
Fortunately, in The Book of Boba Fett, Grogu was permitted to choose for himself whether he wished to continue training with Luke or leave his training behind to go be with Djarin instead. He ultimately chose the latter. Grogy was reunited with Djarin in the season finale of The Book of Boba Fett.
