The Mind-Blowing Star Wars Revelation: Thrawn's Secret Knowledge of Grogu Exposed!
Thrawn's potential knowledge of Grogu and his access to the Inquisitorial database raise questions about his intentions Could he use Grogu against Din Djarin, or vice versa? The article explores the implications of Thrawn's possible understanding of Grogu's significance
Summary
Thrawn's ability to study and exploit his adversaries' weaknesses suggests he may use this tactic against Grogu in the future.
Thrawn's access to the Inquisitorial database allows him the opportunity to uncover Grogu's background and exploit it to his advantage.
The affiliation between Moff Gideon and Thrawn suggests that if Gideon is aware of Grogu, it is highly probable that Thrawn is as well, and they may have communicated regarding their respective plans involving him.
Grand Admiral Thrawn's knowledge of Grogu is hinted at in a scene from the latest Disney+ TV show, Ahsoka. Lars Mikkelsen portrays Thrawn in his first live-action appearance, showcasing the same cunning and expertise as seen in Star Wars Rebels. As a Chiss from the Unknown Regions, Thrawn's strategies differ significantly from those of his Imperial counterparts, allowing him repeated victories. Notably, he thoroughly studies his adversaries, exposing their vulnerabilities.
Thrawn has employed this tactic numerous times in Rebels and continues to do so in Ahsoka. Upon learning that Ahsoka's previous master was Anakin Skywalker, Thrawn utilizes his past experiences working alongside Anakin and serving under Darth Vader. Being one of the few who knew Anakin's true identity as Vader, Thrawn exploits this knowledge to gain an advantage over Ahsoka, ultimately defeating her and evading capture on Peridea. It is likely that Thrawn will employ this technique again in the future, potentially even targeting Grogu.

Thrawn Can Access The Inquisitorial Database
When Thrawn embarks on his investigation of Ahsoka, he enlists the assistance of Morgan Elsbeth to sift through her data in the Inquisitorial database. This grants Thrawn unrestricted access, and considering his personal experience surviving Order 66, it is highly likely that Grogu's information is also stored within this repository. While much remains unknown regarding Grogu's activities and whereabouts between his departure from the Jedi Temple and his eventual discovery by Din Djarin on Arvala-7, it is plausible that the Inquisitors possess critical missing details from that period. Thrawn could potentially uncover the identities of Grogu's former masters, ascertain the additional planets he visited during the tumultuous Dark Times, and, if the database is up to date, even learn about Grogu's new role as Din's adoptive son. Undoubtedly, if Thrawn has access to such information within the Inquisitorial database, he may strategize to exploit it against Grogu.
If Moff Gideon Knew About Grogu, So Does Thrawn
Will Thrawn Use Grogu Against Din Djarin (Or Vice Versa)?
The duration of Moff Gideon's pursuit of Grogu remains unknown until Din stages the rescue in The Mandalorian's first season. However, if Gideon has long been cognizant of Grogu's powers and existence, it is plausible that the Empire has been fixated on capturing him for an extended period. This timeframe may have coincided with Thrawn's presence, considering his disappearance prior to the Galactic Civil War. As Gideon is connected to the awaiting Shadow Council, eagerly anticipating Thrawn's return, it is conceivable that the two were already collaborating on exploiting Grogu to establish a clone army before Thrawn vanished to Peridea. Even if this scenario is not true, any information accessible to Gideon would undoubtedly be accessible to Thrawn as well.
Inevitably, Thrawn will perceive Din and Grogu as adversaries, whether it occurs in The Mandalorian season 4 or in Dave Filoni's upcoming movie set in The Mandalorian era. During this encounter, Thrawn could exploit his knowledge about Grogu to undermine the pair, particularly by disclosing unknown information to Din about his own son. The mere reiteration of Din's personal trauma by Thrawn would already be distressing, but involving Grogu could lead to a perilous breaking point. By identifying Grogu's vulnerabilities, Thrawn might attempt to manipulate him against his adoptive father, knowing that Din would never be able to bring himself to fight against Grogu, the one person in the entire galaxy he deeply cares for.
It is unsettling to think that Thrawn probably has access to the information, regardless of what he decides to do with it. The details about Grogu and his history have been disclosed through flashbacks and his conversations with Ahsoka and Luke. Each glimpse into his past has been filled with darkness and despair. If Thrawn were to replicate his actions from Ahsoka with Grogu, he could exploit those traumatic experiences to his advantage, creating a formidable obstacle for anyone to overcome, particularly a vulnerable child like Grogu.
