The Mandalorian Theory: [SPOILER] Is the Key to Emperor Palpatine's Return

At the end of the first episode of Disney Plus' The Mandalorian, we got a glimpse of what might be the biggest MacGuffin in the history of Star Wars, and we have a theory on how it may reveal the way the Emperor returns in Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker. If you're a longtime Star Wars fan, you know that Sheev Palpatine returns as a clone in the Legends story Star Wars: Dark Empire, but thanks to Disney+ we have a new spin on how that story could go, and it ties into the events of JJ Abrams' Episode IX.
