^ Yeah especially given they are the same person (whatever that means). 2 acolytes would give him a greater chance of overthrowing Plagueis, and technically not even break the rule of 2.
But yeah aside from Sol, the shows characters made no sense whatsoever.
And yes either this was setting up a season 2, or it has just needlessly created a load of loose ends in Sith canon.
I mean you have to be a fan to even recognise Plagueis. Not sure what that cameo meant to a casual watching it. I guess they just figured that's Qimir's Sith Master.
But yeah, back of Yoda's head. What a cameo.
If anything it's more problematic to me that pre-TPM Yoda is fully aware there's a former Jedi running around that's completely embraced the dark side.
Also F that green Jedi master for blaming everything on Sol to hide her apprentice turning to the dark side.

I didn't even understand why the Sith Master (Plagueis) was just standing there like a creepy stalker rubbing the cave walls and shit. The cameo was absolute trash.
I hope to god they don't get a season 2 for this show.
Well Yoda isn't fully aware. Vernestra clearly didn't tell him the true story, so he, like the rest of the Council, just thinks Sol went rogue before getting put down. The Sith reemergence thing is still unknown to the Jedi at that point.
The stupid part is that Yoda couldn't sense the overt conflict within Vernestra to figure out that she was clearly hiding something. God this show was bad.
But how could he believe that? Sol as a scapegoat makes absolutely no sense. He was on Coruscant when Trinity was killed and tons of Jedi would know that. I mean he was literally teaching kids at the time. That's a pretty damn strong alibi. lmao

That's true. A few of the deaths really can't logically be pinned on Sol, but I guess maybe the mass murders can with Vernestra's lying shit? I dunno.
In this new spin on continuity I guess it might also be possible that Yoda chose to accept Sol being the scapegoat because of the Senate inquisition that is also going on at the time, because it's "cleaner"? **** if I know. This show was just terrible.
I thought that was the point of the end cameo.. That she was going to tell him.
That seems to be the justification. Why she pinned it on Sol. To keep from the senate from finding out that her former padawan is out there having embraced the dark side.

I interpreted it differently. Vernestra had lied to everyone up to that point, so I figured she was just taking her lies all the way to the top of the totem pole. Because if Yoda bought her story, then it would be solidified as fact among the Jedi.
IOW, no former apprentice of hers that became a Sith and is still out there with a new pupil. Just a wayward Jedi that went rogue for a bit, and then was put down. So in the Council's eyes the mess has been cleaned up, just in time for the Senate inquisition.
Still stupid as ****, but that's how I'd reconcile it if I had to.
