Andor: “The Axe Forgets” (Season 1, Episode 5)




Growing Up Skywalker show

Summary: <p>Andor is a show that loves grassroots revolution. And we love that for Andor.</p> <p>“The Axe Forgets” takes us deep into the psyches of the people choosing to rebel against the Empire. We have Skeen, from whom the Empire took a childhood (and a brother). And we have Nemik, a true, hotblooded philosopher-rebel. And we have Lieutenant Gorn, who lost his love to Imperial control—and, of course, Cassian, who has a million mysterious reasons to hate the Empire (very few of which have been shown on-screen).</p> <p>In this week’s recap, we talk about rising up against tyranny, the claustrophobia of group projects, what seeds Star Wars is sowing for its grand, future rebellion—and what it costs you to rebel.</p> <p>Want even more Growing Up Skywalker?
