Great episode, but way too short

Chapter 20 - The Foundling is a great episode, but it's way too short. We get to see a little more Mandalorian training, and Grogu showing off his skills, along with the visual and puppet team, because wow, the things they can do with that character now is mind-blowing.

Seeing Grogu's past was the highlight, but I believe this should have taken the entire episode and not just 5 minuets. And it was good to see Ahmed again, and playing a Jedi of all things. The whole Order 66 scene was really good, but it seemed rushed to get to the point.

The entire Mandalorian plot of finding that dragon-like creature was interesting, and there were several stunning cinematography moments. Well done to Carl Weathers on directing this episode, it was beautifully shot. Bo-Katan is becoming one of my favourite characters in the series, I just hope she doesn't stab anyone in the back. But she did tell the Forger about the Mythosaur, so who knows.

Overall this is a great episode, but it was just too short. Shorter length episodes did not do wonders for the Kenobi show, and fits animation better. They should have taken their time, expanded the story a little bit more. I feel kinda cheated having to wait a week for a 20 minuet episode.
