Some might say this middle episode of this second arch is slow, but if you ask us, it’s some of the best character work ever done in Star Wars and it’s doing a masterful job of setting up a thrilling follow-up that will see Andor and his team of misfits finally take on the Empire on Aldhani. Meanwhile, we check in with Mon Mothma, as her web of lies, necessary for keeping a nascent rebellion alive, is straining her family life. Speaking of strained family life, we also get to check in with Syril and his mother as they attempt to regroup after the fiasco on Ferrix that forced him back home. We also briefly touch base with the ISB and Luthen to make sure everyone gets a scene. All in, certainly not an “exciting” episode by any traditional metric, but for our money, this is still some top notch Star Wars.
