or she does come back to the rebellion and ends up being killed.

I don't think she left the Rebellion - she just left Cassion so she's not a distraction from The Cause.

She shipped off to some other part of the rebellion.

So what does everyone think of one of Lonnie's agents being sent to arrest Mon? We didn't see him at all in this arc. Did he turn or was she operating outside of his knowledge?

How do you think Luthen found out?

I guess that's the best he could do, go along with the ISB but let Luthen know

That's kind of Lonnie's shtick though. He has so much value as an insider that it's not worth sacrificing that to actually try to manipulate anything from the inside. The ISB is incredibly intelligent, well resourced, and paranoid that they would have caught on pretty quick if he was trying to use his position to operationally help the rebellion.

I literally felt an ache in my chest for Cassian at the end of E9. He's truly giving everything (or it's being taken away) for the rebellion.

well Disney had to do Disney things to check some of their stupid boxes.

it's a common theme on this site. everyone wants to act like they are smarter than/superior to the people actually making the shows. they need something to point out they couldve done better

just watching a show and not complaining about some aspect is unfathomable

It reminds me of this clip from Matt Damon asking Steven Spielberg if they should do another take on a scene from Saving Private Ryan

I'd have to find the article again, but I just read an interview with Adria Arjona, and she basically confirms that was it for her this season. Gilroy gave her a decent heads up that was how they were going to give Bix her goodbye.

General Draven, he was in Rogue One. When Cassian went with Jyn to find her father, Draven told him to forget about brining Galen back and gave orders to kill him.

There was one thing I kind of rolled my eyes at with episode 9, when Vel recognized the blaster that belonged to Meslshi. She had Skeen inspect Cassian's belongings at the beginning of his time on Aldhani, and maybe say that blaster once, probably didn't think a lot about it. I highly doubt she would have recognized it as that specific blaster when she was inspecting the weapons.

Probably just a fun way to reintroduce Melshi.

Those episodes were incredible. I downloaded 8 and 9 to watch again on a flight.

A very fitting end for Syril. I was surprised how much I felt for him when it was all said and done. I even felt bad for his mother.

The Ghorman massacre was brutal. The bellhop went out like a champ and the crying kid redeemed himself by incapacitating K2.

Mothma’s speech and escape were so well done. I was interested to see how they would incorporate existing details of her escape from Rebels and they did it perfectly. The transfer to Gold Squadron was a nice nod.



It’s pretty funny to think right before this speech in Rebels she watched Cassian shoot two people right in front of her. Speaking of, I think the driver was having a little crisis of faith. Too bad Cassian doesn’t take any chances.

Only 3 episodes left. I think Lonni finds out about Galen and the Death Star, gets burned getting the info to Luthen, and Luthen gets burned getting it to the Rebellion/Cassian.
