Cass, just trying to live his life with Bix on Yavin IV, is marked as a “messenger” by a mysterious Force Healer; soon after, he and Wil return to Ghorman to target Dedra Meero. The Ghorman people are kettled into the town square by Imperial Forces, which quickly turns into the Ghorman Massacre - a heartbreaking event we found impossible not to connect to current events in Gaza. And, last but not least, Mon publicly denounces Palpatine and flees Coruscant with Cass’s help, cementing her - and his - role as a Rebel leader.

This penultimate arc is as heavy as it is beautiful. Get the Kleenex ready.

The Ghorman story really takes flight in this arc as the Empire, through Dedra and Syril, tug on the strands of the Ghorlectipod web they've woven behind the scenes.

Cass and Bix try to get settled in Coruscant, Kleya and Luthen have to clean up a mess they made, Saw teaches Wilmon to huff rhydo, and Vel and Cinta reunite briefly.

We talk about it all.

And the Teletubbies. (We promise it makes sense...kind of.)

Now that the dust has settled on Season 2 of Andor, what better time to start a rewatch with us as we kick off our coverage of the second season of the critically acclaimed series.

The first arc of the season begins with a bang. So much action as we begin one year from the finale of season 1. We've got grand theft auto, a wedding, and the Empire coming after the Ferrix survivors and plotting something sinister for Ghorman.

CW: We discuss a depiction of sexual assault and violence in that occurs in the third episode of Andor.

If you or anyone you know is facing sexual violence, please know help is available.
