In what way do they decipher that code when K2 can't do it.

Edit: Nevermind old fashion radio trace i guess

Blue ball ending

Musical easter egg at end of credits

Just finished. What a masterpiece.

I don't think I breathed during episodes 10 and 11. My god the first 10 minutes of episode 10.

What a perfect, emotionally satisfying finale. It was quieter than expected, which I'm sure will be to the dislike of some... but damn, that last few minutes was so damn good.

That musical montage of all our characters was so well done. And really emotionally impactful. Seeing that nod that Andor gave to the force healer actually choked me up a bit. As if he is finally accepting his fate and knows he is heading towards it now. So much was said without words.

Dedra ending up on Narkina is incredibly poetic. Couldn't write it better than that.

I had a very strong feeling there was an Andor baby. What a great final scene to end it on. So bittersweet. Got emotional there too.

I cannot wait to watch Rogue One and ANH this weekend.

The biggest credit to this show, aside from how amazing it is, is how much better it has made the movies that come after it.

Hope this show gets the recognition it deserves.

And lastly, I'm glad they continue to show the uselessness of most bureaucrats. I hate most of the Alliance council. ****** politicians

Did I miss how Luthen got burned? Not sure how Jung accessing Dedra's files burns him.

From Dedra's convo with Krennik, it sounds like the timing was coincidence. She had found info in Krennik's files that pointed to Luthen and then she waited for her peer's day off to strike.

Best subtle acting in Star Wars history - Vel's throat twitching when Andor says Cinta's name during the toast they did in Episode 12.

I would pay $1,000 to walk around the Yavin base set while they are filming.

I was so happy to see Admiral Raddus.

Wow, what a show. One of the best things I've ever seen. A lot to take in but so well done. Need to re-watch 10-12 then R1.

Glad we got the heads up to stay for the credits.

This whole season was an incredible, but these last two season arcs were Masterpieces. Wow. Some of the best drama and storytelling I've ever seen. I was tensed up the whole time. So, so good.

Watching Cassian on Kafrene in Rogue One now.

What drove the tension in those first 2 episodes was the sense of urgency that Lonni's action and information unleashed on both sides. The rebels had to get this info to Yavin, and they knew the Empire knew they had it. The Empire knew at least some of their plan had leaked and they had to chase down every potential loose end and leak. That sense of urgency then bleeds into Rogue One.

The tension and stakes had me practically pacing during episodes 10-11.

Dedra made the same mistake in Episode 10 that Syril did back on Ferrix, deciding to be the center of attention and make the arrest yourself instead of letting the pros do it.

Like many do in corporations when they hide things so they get the recognition but it actually hurts the overall goals.

K2 holding that one head guy up as a shield was nuts.

Loved it when they replayed Nemik's manifesto over some of the closing scenes as Partigan listened. It helped tie the entire story all together and reinforce the truths about tyranny and rebellion in such a poignant way. It was beautiful writing and storytelling.

The decision to kill Luthen early in this 3 episode arc is brilliant, and then giving us some backstory as to why him and Kleya were so dedicated to each other (without it being sappy)
That little girl actress was great.

Im debating how I want to watch Rogue One. Do I hope they actually put it in theaters soon and go right into it?
Do I just go ahead and watch at home this weekend?
Do I rewatch this whole season and then go into rogue one? lol

Such an amazing show

R1 on a big screen was pretty great. You definitely felt the scale of planets, ships, and especially the Death Star. I kind of doubt they do a re-release like they did for ROTS though.

Luthen's name in the military was Sergeant Lear. He flipped the letters around to become Luthen Rael.

Master Class acting by Ben Mendehlson in the scene where he puts Dedra in her place. Eventually she proves that she's not a Rebel spy by showing them how incompetent she is.

I also loved when she went at it with Luthen and was so incensed it took her so long to find him and said something to the effect of, "It seems unfair I've known exactly who you were the whole time."

Now i'm glad Bail Organa wasn't Jimmy Smits, because Bail Organa was kind of a dick.

They did some really clever camera stuff on K2 so they could go full force with him a few times. Having him sitting down a lot and then one time just showing his mid-section while he talks let them use a practical puppet a lot more.

Quick question guys. What did the BBY1 mean at the start last night? I thought it meant 1 year prior to Rougue One but this show ends with start of R1, and Star Wars starts right at the end of R1 so not sure what it means.

BBY means Before the Battle of Yavin aka the end of A New Hope

I hope they do. It's my favorite Star Wars movie and loved seeing it in theaters.

I was confused about this too at first but since the Battle of Yavin is days away, that's when it would be become "year 0".

It's like a few days before New Years in the Star Wars calendar. Or a few days before the birth of Christ, more accurately.

Thanks

R1 and Star Wars seemed to be fast time lines and not taking over a year. This explanation helps.

I watched 10, 11, 12 this morning and then went straight into R1. It does make me wonder how they knew Jyn was on Wobani in the Imperial labor camp.

The dialogue in the confrontation between Luthen and Dedra in the gallery was spectacular. I loved when she asked him if everything in the gallery was authentic and he replied, "There are only two pieces of questionable provenance."

my only nit to pick.

1) K2, Andor and Melshi get to Coruscant and there isn't one single other ship in sight around the planet of 3 trillion beings.
