Finally watched season 2.

I’m convinced that Luthen - and almost certainly his formidable partner - will stake everything, including their own lives, to secure Mon Mothma’s escape when she’s most vulnerable. We’ve already watched Luthen shed his trademark composure for a fiercer, more desperate edge: he bent his “code” by allowing Mothma’s sister to defy orders and rejoin her partner, and he tactically nudged Bix toward her vengeance. Meanwhile, Mon Mothma’s simmering rage has even pushed her to openly confront Director Krennic himself.

In the episodes ahead—after the ISB’s ruthless assault on Ghorman and the Empire’s cruelty reaches new heights—both Luthen and Mon Mothma will snap. I can vividly imagine Mon Mothma’s polished façade cracking in a flash of raw emotion, and Luthen, without hesitation, stepping into grave danger to shield her, sacrificing himself so she can continue the rebellion.

I can see something like this of a structure:

Ghorman massacre
Mon Mothma holds speech
Krennic deems Mon Mothma a threat to the Empire, and calls her to his office/ISB Headquarters/shows up to her whereabouts
Luthen hears about the Massacre and Mothma’s speech, tries to get reach of her - realizes she’s in danger
Mon Mothma confronts ISB/Krennic in raw emotion, shit hits the fan, Luthen shows up, escalation - Luthen and his partner reveal themselves for who they are; rebels, gives the impression that Mon Mothma is some emotional senator he doesn’t respect to divert attention, kill some ISB men, injure Krennic and dies.
