This is a bridging episode that succeeds in that in spades, expertly setting up the next plots, while being an engaging and tense episode in its own right. The cast shows up, the set design is immaculate, the soundtrack thumping, and the themes... you cannot escape the encroachment of fascism no matter how far you go, it is all around you. They will invent reasons and twist the story however they need to take you in. That scene with Andor and the stormtrooper is just harrowing and real and unlike any other Star Wars thing out there. Just fantastic.
