- Quotes
Colonel Wulff Yularen: This is quite the wishlist. Full planetary comnet, full Garrison tech package, Series Nine Spectrum surveillance, local agent funding, Code Droid.
Dedra Meero: All ready to go, sir. If someone there is talking, we need to be listening.
Colonel Wulff Yularen: It's a large investment.
Dedra Meero: It's a fraction of the price of lost technology.
Colonel Wulff Yularen: So drill down on Ferrix, find this thief, and then what?
Dedra Meero: Identify Axis. They escaped together. It's the first best lead we've had.
Major Partagaz: Supervisor Meero has convinced me that this Axis has been nimble in spreading his activities across the galaxy. And, no, we don't know who he is, nor do we know the scope of our problem. The little we are aware of is already troubling.
Dedra Meero: Ferrix was a mistake. It's the first one he's made. Drill down is exactly what I want to do, sir. Drill down, find Andor, and get a hunt started.

Anyway, that's a conversation for a different day. I'm just glad to be somewhere where most people watching something Star Wars aren't being total jerks.
Like others have pointed out, what the Empire does to people behind the scenes isn't something that's seen very much in this universe, and it's brutal. This episode was deeply disturbing, from the behavior of some of the inmates to the nature of some of the (non-rebel) scum working inside some of the the most tyrannical baddies Erin cinematic history.
Andy Serkis! What a surprise! I love that man. The rest of the acting is very solid too.
This is a very consistently done show. I don't blame anyone for favoring as much as they do.
