Andor Recap: Outside Agitators
In the year 2 BBY, the rebels have made significant strides, establishing the Yavin Rebel Base as their new home. My beloved rebel pair now reside amidst the trees, trading the bustling metropolis of Coruscant for a more tranquil environment where they can catch their breath. However, this communal and somewhat regimented lifestyle is bittersweet, tinged with Cassian’s physical pain from an off-screen mission injury sustained in the past year.
The return of Will, who seems to have distanced himself from Saw Gerrera’s fume-filled escapades, brings news from Luthen. It appears that Luthen is aware of Cassian’s injury and queries if he’s ready to resume work. Despite Luthen’s offer of a mission last time – which in the world of Andor is akin to giving someone a couples spa day – it’s clear that the bond between Luthen and Cassian has grown strained over the past year, with Luthen delving deeper into the Ghorman project with Will’s assistance.
