I'm starting to get sad that we have Rogue One already, because watching it after this series would be one hell of a cap on this story.

Love this show. It's Star Wars for adults.
One thing I've really enjoyed is how real they've managed to make Coruscant feel. They're clearly filming on real locations and it makes such a huge difference. Loved the Mon Mothma conversation.
Cool detail that Clem was his dad's name.
So do y'all think Luthen actually gave the order to kill Andor? It felt like it was the woman's call to me, maybe even going rogue. Why would he give him the kyber crystal otherwise if he really was expendable?
K-2SO appearance at the end or just an Easter egg?
Still trying to figure out where Henry Thomas will land in all this.
Andor Ep. 7 features the most sophisticated writing EVER associated with @starwars. PERIOD. Also? THE DESIGNS for the City Planet Coruscant are OFF THE CHARTS. There are subtle nods to both Bladerunner & Dark City, & I am Here For It. That evening gown on the alien is EVERYTHING.

Cassian needs a lesson in "be cool" when the cops are around...Apache said:
Andor, flush with cash heads to Niamos (Space Boystown) and spends his money on the Star Wars equivalent of hookers and cocaine. He gets the munchies and heads to the Quickie Mart, gets hauled in by the Po-Po and sentenced to 6 years on a trumped up charge.
This is definitely not the Star Wars we grew up with!!
he should have responded, "I was watching cops"LB12Diamond said:
Well, he was running and sweating!

Yes
The scenes with him mom were great. Such great writing.
I will worry
Yes, that's what you do when you love someone.
the visual language and musical shift is too specific not to have been a specific reference point: a camera racing over the waves, flocks of wildlife, a high-tempo synth-driven electronic score. All to serve a noirish climax. I love this show. pic.twitter.com/RSPLy2xke5

He is so beaten down by his mother. I find it hilarious.Aggie_Journalist said:
Theory:
ISB lady (Meero) will spot inspector man (Karn) in her files while researching Ferrix and intuit that Karn will want to get Cassian because Cassian ruined his career. She'll pluck him from obscurity and send him after Cassian by dangling revenge and a chance to join the ISB if he succeeds (and we've seen he's desperate to find meaning and rise to a more important role, so he'll be highly motivated). She won't actually expect Karn to catch Andor, though. She'll just be using him so Cassian is so focused on Karn's clumsy pursuit that he doesn't see Meero coming from the shadows.
At a pivotal moment when Andor seems caught, Meero will jettison Karn and he'll realize he was just an expendable cog the whole time after all. In a final moment of "f you" to the empire, Karn will sacrifice himself so Andor can escape and the rebellion can live, finally giving much sought meaning to his meaningless life.

Some see Blade Runner. I see 1970s TAMU campus architecture.
They've been having trouble with Firaxxan shark attacks there this summer. Chief wants to close the beach, but the Mayor's not having it on Boonta Eve weekend.Apache said:
Just realized I didn't see a single person in the water at Niamos in those stills.
Everyone must have just eaten & are waiting 30 minutes before swimming.
I think somehow Karn's mom will be involved in the Rebellion and he may have to choose to imprison her. I feel like they invested too much into this guy such that he'll somehow survive and join the rebels.Aggie_Journalist said:
