One of the big mysteries in the minds of many a Star Wars fan after seeing The Rise of Skywalker was Palpatine's return.

Join with me as I discuss my feelings on the matter, as well as provide some commentary on the new revelations contained in the novelization of the final film of the Skywalker Saga.
