Andor

When was the last time you spoke with Cassian Andor?

Ferrix has been hiding long enough.

So now you're taking on the Empire?

What's left to keep you here?

The Rebellion.

Did he tell you? He's writin' a manifesto.

You're my ideal reader.

He said to give this to you.

So, searching for a more fluid banking situation, are we?

What will it cost?

I have a 14-year-old son. I'd like to bring him with me.

- I'm not asking for betrothal. - Then what are we talking about?

An introduction.

Your daughter's 13. She'll soon come of age.

Don't tell me you're taking proposals.

I'm in so much trouble, Vel.

ISB knows Kreegyr's plan. They'll be waiting for him.

- You think it's worth losing Kreegyr? - I did.

Calling about Andor.

You wanted news if I had it.

Yes. Please, go on.

The mother. She's passed away.

He might show up at the funeral.

- They just moved the body. - What happens now?

As a prominent citizen of Ferrix, she rates a big send-off.

They'll want to close Rix Road.

You're going to give them a permit.

Cass, I'm sorry.

Your mother's dead.

You're here.

Welcome. And just in time for dinner.

I'll eat later.

I want to get changed, take a walk around the town.

I'll pull an escort.

No need.

Corv will take me.

Keep it small.

As you wish.

- Xan. - Hey.

Looked like you were wrapping up, so I thought I'd wait.

- How long you been here? - I spoke to Cassian.

- What? - He called the shop.

How?

Picked up the old box line and there he was.

- Where? - I don't know. I...

- Where is he? - He wouldn't say.

Does he know about Maarva?

Yeah, he does now.

It was a very short conversation.

- He asked about the funeral. - Let's walk.

- Who else knows this? - No one.

Keep it that way.

Can't be too careful.

They're watching Maarva's. Could be anywhere.

He'd be insane to come back now.

I hope you told him that.

Like I said, it was a very short call.

I can't stop thinkin' about this whole Maarva situation.

Imagine losing you mother like this.

I couldn't stand it.

Not being there for your mom.

Have Brasso place her stone, just breaks your heart, right?

You gotta feel for Cassian.

I'd be losing my mind.

Want another?

Maybe just one.

Why worry it though?

It's not like he knows about it.

Guarantee you, he's got no idea what's going on.

Bank on that.

I wouldn't be so sure.

Hey.

You know something I don't?

Do me a favor, keep it that way.

Hey.

We'll have another round.

I thought you left without me.

- Crossed my mind. - Mmm.

- I looked for you but, uh... - I'm sure.

Kloris, we'd like privacy, please.

Ma'am.

What now?

You're gambling again.

- Nonsense. - And here, in Coruscant.

That's ridiculous.

Do you have any idea how tired of this I am?

It's a lie.

It's total fantasy. Who's telling you this?

- Please. - No, I'm serious.

Perrin, please.

- Who is saying this? - Just don't.

We'll go back there, right now. We'll put it to an end.

We will not. I've been shamed enough for one night.

You can't live without a casino? Fine.

You go to Canto Bight and do whatever it is you need to do.

But not here.

You promised.

- I've kept my promise! - Keep your voice down.

He can't hear me.

This is wrong, Mon.

This is people trying to take you down by coming after me.

You tell me who's saying this and I'll tell you why.

Oh, please.

Where would I get the money?

That's the question that scares me the most.

Someone's lying to you.

On that, we can agree.

You're here.

I couldn't remember if I'd locked the door,

if you'd even remember how to get here.

- And here I am. - I was on my way to pick you up.

This guy I've been watching, he's ISB.

He's their guy in town.

His boss showed up tonight.

Good to see you too.

An ISB supervisor came in tonight.

A woman.

Here. Now.

I was on my way to pick you up

when they left the hotel dressed like locals.

I had to follow.

They're getting ready, Vel.

They must know Andor's coming.

You did the right thing.

We have to get there first.

- I know. - Everything depends on it.

I said I know.

Come away from the window.

Here's the thing, Cassian.

The man who sees everything is more blessed than cursed.

Look at that. Here we go.

Stand back, let it drip.

Look how quickly that's cleaned up.

Hard to believe, right?

Two minutes.

No longer, no shorter.

You know why they don't make these anymore?

'Cause they'd rather sell you a brand new system at ten times the price.

I mean, how many we got?

60? 70 of them?

Just sittin' there.

Five hundred credits each.

People don't look down to where they should.

They don't look down, they don't look past the rust.

Not us though, eh?

Eyes open, possibilities everywhere.

Just need to get this cleaned up

before Maarva find us doing this in the house.

Who's there?

- Cass? - Pegla?

Down, now!

Huh.

I don't believe it.

Hey.

I'm just...

I'm so sorry.

I loved your mom, I really did.

I know.

It's good to see ya.

What are you doing here?

Just keepin' an eye on the place till we sell it.

Sell it?

Where's Bix?

Where is she?

Cass...

Where is she?

"There will be times when the struggle seems impossible.

"I know this already.

"Alone, unsure,

"dwarfed by the scale of the enemy.

"Remember this. Freedom is a pure idea.

"It occurs spontaneously and without instruction.

"Random acts of insurrection are occurring constantly throughout the galaxy.

"There are whole armies, battalions that have no idea

"that they've already enlisted in the cause.

"Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere.

"And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

"And then remember this.

"The Imperial need for control is so desperate

"because it is so unnatural.

"Tyranny requires constant effort.

"It breaks, it leaks.

"Authority is brittle.

"Oppression is the mask of fear.

"Remember that.

"And know this,

"the day will come when all these skirmishes and battles,

"these moments of defiance

"will have flooded the banks of the Empire's authority

"and then there will be one too many.

"One single thing will break the siege.

"Remember this.

"Try."

We've loosened air traffic as you requested.

Pulled back our uniform patrols, relaxed our curfew.

We've baited the trap and opened the door.

We've got recon units prepped and positioned.

I know you've got your own sources out there.

What time is the funeral?

They asked for midday.
