this mix of marching towards something inevitable and wanting to understand every single moment that led the character to that place. And then also this just looming specter of uncertainty. It's very different in Andor than I think in any other show, but it's in this respect, like very reminiscent of other Star Wars properties as well. You know, how many years were people talking about like

We are going to go today by like character cluster, Jo. So we are going to start where the first episode begins with... the titular Andor, with Cassian Andor himself. And the first kind of cluster we're going to hit is, even though this opening scene is not on Yavin, the Yavin 4 plotline. Wild stuff to see Yavin right here at the beginning of Andor Season 2.

Cassian and the Maya paper grade. Spoiler, this was my actually easily least favorite part of the three-part premiere, but even this had something wonderful to give us. I liked it.

I've warmed to it considerably on rewatches, and it's got a lot to offer. It's like one of those things where in Andor, it's all relative. If you're dealing with Shakespeare and certain other plot lines, it's just a lot to measure up to. But I actually I think I come down on like the side of appreciating that tonal variance.

Let's start with a theft of the tie Avenger, because before we go to Yavin, we open on the sign our test facility 73 where our guy Cassian is decked out. As an Imperial test pilot, he is there to steal a prototype. And I just want to say RIP to this sweet little droid buddy who got blasted in this sequence.
