The fifth episode of Star Wars Andor is now streaming on Disney+ Hotstar Malaysia. I’ll be discussing heavy spoilers so if you haven’t seen it or want to avoid spoilers, now’s your chance to stop reading.

Check out my spoiler-free review of Andor here.

The Andor series will explore a new perspective from the Star Wars galaxy, focusing on Cassian Andor’s journey to discover the difference he can make. The series brings forward the tale of the burgeoning rebellion against the Empire and how people and planets became involved. It’s an era filled with danger, deception and intrigue where Cassian will embark on the path that is destined to turn him into a rebel hero.

Diego Luna returns as Cassian Andor and is joined by cast members Genevieve O’Reilly (who will portray a young Mon Mothma), Stellan Skarsgård, Adria Arjona, Denise Gough and Kyle Soller. The executive producers are Kathleen Kennedy, Sanne Wohlenberg, Diego Luna and Michelle Rejwan. Tony Gilroy is the creator and showrunner.

Blue Milk With Cereal

Blue milk is an iconic part of Star Wars lore ever since Luke Skywalker first drank it in 1977’s Star Wars Episode IV A New Hope. However, this marks the first time that anyone in Star Wars canon has ever eaten blue milk with cereal. If anything, that’s interesting.

Dedra Mentions Hosnian Prime

In one scene, Dedra (Denise Gough) mentions Hosnian Prime as one of a list of potential places of refuge for the Rebels. During this era, Hosnian Prime is not yet the capital of the New Republic it would later become by the time of 2015’s Star Wars Episode VII The Force Awakens.

The same scene also mentions other notable planets and locations like Kessel and Jakku.

Hosnian Prime would eventually get destroyed by the First Order’s Starkiller Base.

Besides that, nothing much happens in this episode, as Andor and the Rebels plan their heist.

Until next week, may the Force be with you.
