Do you ever stop to think about how IG was trying to avoid capture (by way of self-destruction) because he was the one to see Din's true face and would have the information logged into his core drive so he died to protect Din's secret from being forcefully extracted?

So.....are we going to talk about the fact that Din is walking from the Crest and the ramp isn't closing?

Several shots from the new trailer insinuate that the Crest becomes damaged to the point of being grounded again. Possibly more than once.

I'm starting to wonder if that scene where he's greeting Karga/Cara immediately proceeds the one from the first trailer where the Crest is flying towards a planet but the ramp is open and the lights are flickering.

Something that has been bothering me lately....

Based on Din's interactions with non-Mandos, it's safe to assume that most people have yet to encounter a Mandalorian aside from Din, nor have they been exposed to the culture enough to understand. We see evidence of this in the Mythrol's questioning in the very first episode, instantly establishing the "mythical" aura of the Mandalorian culture, as though it never truly existed, and has become one of those things archaeologists talk about when deciphering old legends.

However Din's physical presence is reassurance that the culture not only exists, but has persisted through persecution. The general reactions to Din and his Creed (Kuiil suggesting he remove his helmet to aid his attempt to corral the blurg, Cara's suggestion that he take off the helmet, Omera's quiet attempt to remove the helmet in the village, Mayfield's mockery of seeing Din's eyes, and Burg's attempt to remove his helmet, etc) reinforces the conept that most people are unaware of the exact parameters of the culture.

Yet there is ONE person who appears unphased......Karga

Karga barely acknowledges Din's culture, his reference to Din's armor is strictly in regards to the elevated levels of jealousy amongst the other bounty hunters rather than the fact that it's made of beskar. He also does not react beyond self-preservation upon seeing the sky raining gunslinging Mandalorians (one with a big-ass gun), who kill his bounty hunters and aid a traitor during his escape. He openly shows his stash of beskar to Din after the Child is turned over to the Client, seemingly unbothered that he just flashed something very precious to a Mandalorian; a part of their culture, their very identity: beskar. Of course Din doesn't react, something I've brought up in the past, leaving me to wonder about what he was thinking during that moment. It felt as though Din (being his usual lone-wolf, I'm-outnumbered-in-terms-of-allies-so-there's-no-point-in-getting-riled-up self) simply ignored the display, but why? Aside from his usual tactic of avoiding an escalation of a situation, why ignore such a bold display?

What exactly does Karga know about Mandalorians? He must know, at the very least, the value of the beskar to their culture, so why the callousness? Why would he flash the beskar in Din's face instead of just pointing out that they both profited quite a bit from the transaction and leave it at that? We could argue that it was a precursor to Din's shooting Karga in an attempt to absolve Karga of accusations where he might possibly have overlooked Din's betraying the Guild in favor of protecting his best hunter, but I feel there was something else going on.

Karga oversees Navarro, he would've caught snippets of Mandalorian sightings if one were to surface long enough to get supplies for the Covert, but I feel as though he brushes it off and allows the locals to think it's just Din they saw. But Karga knows, because Din is away on another hunt, has been gone for several days/weeks, so it's not Din. You can't tell me that Karga is not aware of the other Mandalorians prior to the events of episode 3, especially given how it appears the Covert remained in Nevarro until their hideout was ambushed. The way Karga described the Imp's takeover of the town, it sounds like they were present for quite some time before Din's return. Meaning that the Mandalorians possibly went back into hiding in the sewers under cover of darkness, and laid low until the heat died down.

Is Karga a protector of Mandalorians? Or is it strictly a business endeavor where he's simply trying to protect his investment?
