Finally, Andor Season 1’s concluding episode has arrived, and Tony Gilroy gives us one of the best season finales in television history. Fans of the show, including myself, have lauded Andor throughout the 12 episodes leading up to this mind-blowing conclusion as the best Star Wars project since the 1980s and the best television series this year, and Episode 12 demonstrates that this series has lived up to every bit of the hype.

Cassian Andor (Diego Luna) returns to Ferrix for his mother’s funeral while carrying the weight of his mother’s death and the flames of rebellion burning within him. However, when he gets there, he finds that he is not the only resident who has been affected by the slow-burning dissidence.

At the Repaak Salyard on Ferrix, where Wilmon Paak (Muhannad Bhaier) is diligently creating something, Episode 12 begins quietly. It doesn’t take long to discover that he is making an explosive rather than fixing a broken flux converter or a malfunctioning communication. There is no doubt that he intends to use Maarva’s funeral as a platform to take direct action against the Empire for making an example of his father, especially with a hologram of his late father Salman (Abhin Galeya) watching him as he works. Gilroy creates an intriguing analogy between Wilmon and Cassian’s early years. We discovered earlier in the season that the Empire also hanged Gary Beadle’s Clem Andor (Gary Beadle) as a sign of control over the neighborhood.

But Cassian chose to become unmoored and detach himself from genuine, revolutionary behaviour rather than making a bomb and attempting to blow something up. This not only demonstrates a different course Cassian could have followed for himself, but it also demonstrates that those whom the Empire seeks to subjugate cannot afford to become complacent. This becomes the central thesis of the epilogue, with Ferrix acting as a turning point for the rebellion.

In anticipation of Cassian Andor’s arrival, Dedra Meero (Denise Gough) returns to Ferrix, and she is so sure that this will be a turning point in her career. Soon after she arrives, she and Corv (Nouf Ousellam) go undercover to learn more about what’s going on in Ferrix. At the time, they have no idea that Cinta (Varada Sethu) is following them, or at least it doesn’t seem like it at the time. Not just the rebellion is keeping an eye and ear out on the streets, searching for information about Cassian Andor.

In another scene, Brasso (Joplin Sibtain) receives word from Xan (Zubin Varla) that he has spoken with Cassian, while Nurchi (Raymond Anum) plans his covert strategy for extracting additional information from Xan. During post-work drinks, Nurchi deceives Xan into feeling secure and coaxes information about Cassian’s impending arrival out of him in order to pass it along to the Empire and possibly better his own situation. Although it’s not much, it’s sufficient to gain the respect of the Imperial officers prowling the streets.

Mon Mothma (Genevieve O’Reilly) is waiting outside a social gathering on Coruscant for Perrin (Alastair Mackenzie) to finish mingling with the other guests when it becomes clear that this evening out is more complicated than first appears. When he eventually decides to leave the party, they trade insults, and Mon is the first to beg their driver to give them some solitude.

Her driver’s refusal to comply with her request is not surprising because it has already been established that he is a spy for the Empire. The driver instead pays close attention as Mon accuses Perrin of gambling once more as he is being driven. He jumps to defend himself, claiming that the accusation was planted by one of her critics in the Senate, but Mon is adamant that he has been misusing their funds and lying about it.

It’s simple to understand that Mon is setting up her husband to take the blame for their financial condition after last week’s disastrous chat between Mon and Vel (Faye Marsay). The Empire would undoubtedly prefer to think that the troubled Senator is dealing with a gambling spouse than to think she would be stupid enough to finance the revolt with her own money.
