The blonde ISB agent says that she thinks she’s finding a pattern of organized rebellion through the thefts of important devices, so it seems clear that as late as 5 BBY the cells still hadn’t unified enough or done big enough operations to convince the Empire of their threat.

Since Gilroy could refer to the Ghorman Massacre offhand so fast, I’m guessing we’re going to see it.

I loved that the senior ISB dude (Evil Michael Palin) made that big speech about how they're "healthcare" and their job is to spot the "sickness" and stamp it out before it can spread.... then one of his eager young ISB commanders brings him EXACTLY that kind of thing and points out the pattern she's seeing and how she thinks they have a chance to put a stop to it now, and he immediately goes,"Nah just arrest more people, that's the good poo poo! There's a promotion in it for you perhaps!"

Very crafty of David Simon and Ed Burns to sneak into the writers' room like that.

I don't think anything makes evil michael palin happy except thorough and on time reports. Imperial lady's mistake was not submitting her request via a report

if Jar Jar comes out to the party I will get a little tattoo of him on my ankle. There's a local artist who does single needle tattoo's so it'll look good.

Ahmed Best plays one of the senators in the deleted Revenge of the Sith scenes. Like he's literally has lines and is in the room with Bail Organa and Mon Mothma when it's decided to form the rebellion so it would be 100% reasonable and appropriate for him to be there. :D

It's a big galaxy and the Imperial Fleet can't be everywhere. Logistics would be a problem, but not an insurmountable one.

It would be a pain, but you could do the logistical equivalent of "dead drops:" A couple nav buoys far outside major shipping lanes. You have cutout middle men take the coaxium/weapons, even personnel in containers, leave them there for the next pickup, if they do get nabbed by imps and interrogated, they don't know the final destination. The poor fuckers actually staffing Yavin or Hoth are just stuck there for the duration.

Back in the old radio dramas, Empire starts off with the Empire jumping a Rebel convoy that was pretty much doing this. It leaves Hoth under supplied and under staffed.

I had no idea that Jar Jar literally became a clown performer after the fall of the Republic, and he was outcasted again from Gungan society lmao. Not sure if that is still canon.

Don't have much to add, other than I love the show. I could watch ISB meetings with Wiresque dialog all day.

And props to Stellan Skarsgård for somehow giving one of the best performances of his career when I figured he was just going to be there for Disney paycheck reasons. The posing with upraised arm and fake smile before shuffling back to the cockpit was :golfclap:
