Loved the Choir for the praetorian guards, since there’s a choir for Snokes theme, especially in his throne room. Really great connection.

There is just so much I love about this episode. I think my favorite part is that it has finally made Moff Gideon a compelling villain. In previous seasons, he was just sort of tacked on at the end, and mostly just reacting to the heroes. This time? He's been pulling the strings the whole season, and executing chilling revenge plots tailored for his victims.

Like, in Andor ... Dedra Meero says early on "It's too random to be random." But we know it's random ... Cassian Andor was just a random thief ... right? Except no. We later find out he has only been stealing for one buyer, and he's Bix's only thief, and he has been stealing a LOT of stuff for the buyer, and the buyer's wishlist makes it obvious to him and Bix that the buyer's Rebellion, and the whole initial meet with Paak was at a rebel meeting. In other words, Dedra was actually dead on.

Here, Captain Teva says the Navarro pirates and the Imperials are connected, and we think that's random speculation. But later we find out he was dead on.

I was thinking that The Armorer had some sort of scheme against Bo-Katan paralleling the revenge scheme Elia Kane did on Dr. Pershing ... but even I was only thinking it was a story telling parallel. I didn't think it was orchestrated by Moff Gideon! Wow. This is crazy stuff. Crazy in a way I like.

The episode was perfect (I have adored this season). I was so excited to hear Thrawn's name that I basically missed the music or lack thereof for the next 8 minutes since he's my favourite Star Wars character, so I was happy to see this breakdown too. Hopefully we get either Thrawn or Fett (or even both) next episode...

Sorry can you please clarify which song is playing from 5:00-5:15 in this video?

Can't wait to hear that organ from Thrawn's theme in tomorrow's episode, but just a tease. I want the Kiners to be the first to give us the full rendition with a live orchestra come August.

Superb episode and I do think we will get a cameo from Thrawn right at the end of chapter 24

wish we knew the name of the edm song in the beginning.
