For those who are not caught up on The Mandalorian Season 3, this could be a time to look away, as there will be light spoilers for the episode about to be discussed.
The second to last episode (Chapter 19) featured the return of Dr. Pershing. Don’t worry; we won’t spoil the significance of the episode, only the plot details that pertain to this snack.
Pershing was introduced in the series’ first season as the doctor attempting to extract DNA from Grogu.
During Chapter 19, Dr. Pershing is on Coruscant as part of a rehabilitation program for Imperials, when he runs into a familiar face—Elia Kane. Kane also worked on Moff Gideon’s ship and is part of the same reform program reintroducing Imperials back into society.
Kane befriends Dr. Pershing and gifts him a box of yellow travel biscuits, though the gift has a darker ending.
