Andor

Revolution is not for the sane.

And yet... here we are.

Where are you, boy?

You're here! You're not with Luthen. You're here!

You're right here, and you're ready to fight!

Spiders are not the most unique thing in Ghorman.

There's a mineral underground. Doctor!

Deep substrate foliated kalkite.

Should we fail to find any alternatives,

we will have to control Ghorman with a hand firm enough

to silence any resistance.

Grand Moff Tarkin killed 500 peaceful, unarmed Ghormans

in the middle of that plaza.

You can imagine how upset we would be to find out

there's an Imperial military facility rising over the Monument to the Fallen.

Is that where it happened?

I was with my father.

He was killed saving me.

I can't support the bill because I can't risk chafing the Emperor.

Why Ghorman is being persecuted so intently

are questions no one seems prepared to answer.

Hasn't there always been something slightly arrogant about the Ghor?

With the right ideas planted in the right markets in the right sequence,

we can now weaponize this galactic opinion.

Propaganda will only get you so far.

You need a radical insurgency you can count on.

You need Ghorman rebels you can depend on to do the wrong thing.

Luthen should have told me you were in trouble.

We're worth more to him separately than together.

Well, that's something we'll have to talk to him about.

Jacquème! Jacquème! Lo stique sassor!

Nache mik balor! Sim ro nache telpó!

I'm not loving Coruscant.

It's overwhelming, I know you...

You've been struggling.

You come to the house and you mess with Bix?

You mess with her behind my back?

You realize what you're putting at risk right now?

- I give you everything. - This is everything?

Violating every protocol we live by?

Bix has to pull it together.

Or you will have to decide at what point it becomes too large a problem.

Whatever the mission is, I'm coming.

Shadow-Six, you are clear for Open Pad One.

Go for Tower, 0-1-1.

Listen up! New rules!

No vouchers, no food, no rack until you check in with your Duty Officer.

You'll find your Duty Officer listed on the Health Certificate

waiting for you in the clinic following your medical approval.

Stay to the group and mind the freight paths.

Take your shirt off.

And don't tell me it's better.

- Turn around. - I'm gonna be late.

What's more important?

Easy. Easy.

That was easy.

- Pick another spot. - Just relax.

Yeah? What are you gonna do?

Mm. Anything I want.

Hey.

Oh.

Look at this.

- I can come back. - Don't you dare.

I was about to send a search party.

- Hey. - Hey.

- When did you get back? - Just now.

- Where have you been? - I was on a repair.

It took a while getting back.

- You check in? - Not yet.

Things are getting really organized around here.

Tell me about it.

- Here. - That's all right. I've got it. Thanks.

Back from where?

- Here and there. - This is here.

I'm asking you where you were.

He just got in.

She's been more worried about you than I have.

Thanks.

Where were you?

Luthen wants to know if you're ready to work.

Ready for what?

He knows you were hurt.

If he does, it's because you told him.

He's been trying to reach you.

Ready for what?

He just wants to know if he can count on you.

- Well, he's not making it easy. - Whose fault is that?

You trust this place? All these people?

New faces every day?

We need an army.

Everything's a risk.

All we do here is get ready.

Luthen is making things happen.

Is he?

What do you want, Wil?

You wanna fight?

Or you wanna win?

Going it alone doesn't cut it anymore.

Well, maybe you should tell him yourself.

Maybe you should tell us where you've been.

The continued and inexplicable Ghorman resistance

to Imperial norms.

Terrorism strikes again in Ghorman.

Just three weeks after events in Corei and Jel-Novi,

there was a firebombing last night at the Naval Terminal in Palmo.

You can see, behind me, vapor and thermal smoke

still rising from the site...

The number of Imperial casualties is still unknown.

Admiral Tyzen is expected to comment later today,

but we've already seen an escalated response level.

Curfew was reinstated for the entire city.

Local leaders are urging calm,

and so far, there's been no statement, or claim of credit,

from any local terrorist groups.

You can feel this city,

which was already on edge these past few months, tightening up...

Ghorman? For Luthen?

All these side runs. That's what you've been doing?

It's being destroyed.

He must be thrilled.

He's wanted it long enough.

Dragging you out there? For what?

Help him torch the place?

It's not like that.

Not now.

It's the Empire with the torches. They've gone insane.

So?

What does he need me for?

Her.

ISB Supervisor, Dedra Meero.

She destroyed Ferrix.

She killed my father.

You know her.

She's there in Ghorman. In the open, I've seen her.

She's there now, and she's there waiting to be killed,

and I know you're gonna say it's for revenge, but it's not.

She's been coming for Luthen since Ferrix.

She's been coming after him,

and you, and all of us, and everyone we know.

She's just sitting there, Cass.

She keeps winning.

You know she has to be stopped!

I'm late for my briefing.

You need to calm down,

and check in.

You act like Luthen's the enemy.

That would be easier.

She's a monster.

We won't have a better chance.

Sorry to keep you waiting.

The Emperor has taken a great interest in the situation.

Director Krennic's still with him now,

but they wanted me to pass along the affirmative message to you immediately.

We are moving forward with the original plan.

There is, apparently, no suitable replacement

or synthetic alternative for the Ghorman substrate material.

I see.

It's not for lack of effort.

Krennic's had the lab in Eadu working overtime all year.

I don't know the science, but...

it's bad luck Ghorman.

We need what's in the ground, and when we're done,

there won't be much left to call "home."

When?

The fleet will be fully positioned in 48 hours.

They're fiddling with the calendar,

but to commence a full-enforced resettlement

that fits Krennic's schedule,

we'll need a Declaration of Martial Domain as soon as possible.

Where is she?

She's unavailable at the moment.

I asked you "where?"

Captain Kaido is arriving today.

He's here. He's outside my office. Who is he?

He is a crisis specialist.

He'll be bringing a variety of personnel to help manage the situation.

We have plenty of security.

What I need now is some clarity on how exactly--

Dedra. Calmly.

Let the image of professional ascendance settle your nerves.

A successful conclusion to this problem

will reinforce the ISB's position at the Emperor's side.

You've done excellent work bringing this forward.

Everyone that matters knows how well you've played this.

Captain Kaido knows the objective. He will answer to you operationally.

The tactical details, however, will be at his discretion.

You're aware, sir, that the insurgents have weapons at this point.

We're counting on it.

Bombing at the Naval Depot?

I can't even get in there.

It's being investigated.

The rumor is it's a set-up.

They're running it down.

Who? And who's this tactical guy in your control room?

There's evidence of outside agitators.

You serious?

That's what I came here for.

That is what I've been trying to do since I got here.

That is what you told me you wanted, and now...

Now there's evidence I have to beg for?
