Disney+ has released the story synopsis for the season's final episode of The Mandalorian.
The brief, vague summary simply states, "The Mandalorian comes face-to-face with an unexpected enemy." The episode airs December 27.
The identity of the aforementioned enemy is unknown, but The Mandalorian has amassed plenty of them since the show's debut. Most notably, he has run afoul of the entire Bounty Hunter's Guild, when he stole back "The Asset" -- the oft-called Baby Yoda -- whom he had recovered on behalf of the client who hired him.
That client -- so far simply known appropriately enough as The Client -- would certainly be amongst The Mandalorian's newfound foes. As would Greef Carga, leader of the Guild who enlisted some of The Mandalorian's colleagues to take him down, after he violated the Bounty Hunter's Code stealing back a bounty. Killing his fellow bounty hunter IG-11 in pursuit of The Asset undoubtedly turned a lot of his fellow Guild members against him, as well.
None of these enemies are really unexpected, though. Could The Mandalorian end up going against Cara Dune, a key ally in his recent liberation of a Sorgan farming village? Or perhaps one of his fellow Mandalorians? Does the unthinkable happen, and The Child fall into the hands of another who turns the infant's Jedi-like powers against him?
The official synopsis reads:
