I was disappointed there wasn’t more Saw in the last two arcs, maybe something with his group doing something so bad as to explain why the Alliance pushes them away. On the other hand, I underestimated how much the Alliance pushing him away can mostly be in his head.
Having him saying “You have no idea where I am!” when they know and we know that he’s definitely on Jedha was perfect.
Bail’s remaining on Coruscant was necessary simply by way of the fact that we already knew both he and his daughter are active members of the Senate right up to its dissolution. When he was saying that his place was there, he just had to stay, I think part of his reasoning was that he can’t risk his family being scrutinized or taken into custody; he knows he has one of the two people most likely of being someday capable of taking out the Emperor and Vader.
I did not see Partagaz’s suicide coming, but Anton Lesser really sold it. Incredible performance. I had always thought he was fond of Lonni; I was so so so so glad they brought back Nemik’s manifesto. Of all the monologues in this show, it’s the one that sticks with me.
Partagaz was such a likeable guy, it was maybe a little too good to have him turn, though this was obviously the saddest way to do that. I think there’s still a lot to process there.
I could not be more pleased with how things turned out for Heert and Meero, and Perrin for that matter.
