Either way it's always felt like his character has been constantly groomed to be sympathetic to the viewer. I feel like there's a reason for that. 

He (almost) caught the bad guy (Cassian), saved Dedra, and got to hook up with Dedra.  Andor is really his story.

Next week should be nutso. My guess is just about everyone dies except obviously Andor, Mon, and Krennic. I still hold to my prediction that Syril flips to the rebellion, even if it's his last dying act. 

I hope not. Need as much Skars as possible before the ride stops.

I'm studying for a professional designation at home right now so stopping at lunch to watch these three epiodes was my reward for+hours of study this morning.

Hobida shibida has this been fan-fucking-tastic.

That's honestly how I see it going. How much imperial cruelty to innocents has he seen in person? I guess did see some on Ferrix. 

Or maybe Dedra ends up betraying him somehow. Either way it's always felt like his character has been constantly groomed to be sympathetic to the viewer. I feel like there's a reason for that. 

Or, he's just a great guy playing a terrible character.

 

Ok, pop quiz.

Spoiler

Was the guy Saw shot an actual traitor, or was the listening device planted on him when the corpse was "searched?"

To me that felt real, Saw is always someone who trusts no one. The way he fed that information to one person is a perfect Saw test.

It’s also why he needed to be sure about Wilamon’s ability.

The craziest Syril theory out there is that he’s actually Luthen’s kid. Luthen separated from his mom (she told Deedra that Syril’s dad fancied himself as adventurous) Luthen is the mysterious but oft mentioned Uncle Harlo and Syril has been long game from the start.

Don’t buy it…but it’s a theory.  Kind of a No Way Out “woah” kind of theory. 

Gilroy loves him some conspiracy thrillers and the double/triple agent does play a role there.  I dunno maybe Cassian ends up killing his son.

We’re halfway through and the show has exceeded expectations so far.

Feels like every conversation as we go along has a crescendoing weight to them, and ultimately depressing knowing most are going to die. The convos in episode 6 between Vel and Cinta are a good example. They’ve been eyeing each other for most of the time and when they finally get a chance to talk, we get a glimpse of their relationship and the impacts the rebellion has on it. Then boom. Cinta dies a death that shouldn’t have ever happened if they would have been working with rebels that followed the rules. Her chewing out Samm was so damn good.

Gilroy is doing an excellent job at making me feel for characters that I know are going to die. I’m not having a good time in that aspect of the show.
