I am excited to give this a watch. Had a flick through so far and it looks great!

I think opening with the Erso/Krennic flashback feels a bit out of place now in the Andor format. Maybe it makes for a better cold open for episode 2 instead of episode 1? Could make ‘Stardust’ feel a bit like an Erso-centric episode, fitting as they will be reunited (briefly) here, and the episode closes on Jyn already. The scene also leads nicely into Krennic celebrating the destruction of Jedha, showing how long he has been working on the project. His relationship with Galen is set up to be paid off in this episode too. From a purely OCD standpoint, it’ll help balance the running time of all 3 episodes. I need to have a proper watch though. Starting over on Andor and ending with this, can’t wait.
