Maybe I don't get something in that Star Wars universe, but can somebody explain me what's the point behind that ridiculous "never take off your helmet" rule? How does he eat and drink? How does he sleep? Does he seat on a toilet in it too? Hump in it as well? How does he washes his face and hairs from sweat and all in order to avoid lice and bedsores? I don't even start that it's obviously unhealthy for your eyes to see the world through the helmet 24/7 and other things like that.
And some plot details just making me roll my eyes.. like when he comes to that totally empty planet to some totally empty Mandalorian castle and there is just one girl lying on the throne - doing nothing at all. He talks to her and leaves and she just keeps lying there, keeps doing nothing. Such an unrealistic empty world..

@ragnarlothbrok The premise is not that you NEVER remove the helmet but that nobody SEES you without your helmet. The rule they established was "Mandalorians cannot remove their helmets in front of any other person. If they do, they are no longer considered a Mandalorian". My wife had the same question about eating/drinking/etc, and I told her that he doesn't wear the suit or helmet 24/7, just when he's not alone.

It does beg the question, though, of if the former ruler of Mandalor, aka Katee Sackhoff, is still a Mandalorian or not since she almost never wears one.

@tvwatcherdenver Ah yeah, that makes much more sense. They could've shown couple of scenes when he eats alone or something, that would clear this confusion.

@ragnarlothbrok, this was covered pretty well at a few points in the previous seasons. (Episode 1x04, for example.)
