Mon Mothma’s defection is effectively the opening salvo of the united Rebel Alliance, and it only happens here because of the Ghorman Massacre. Watching them put the pieces into play and create a more complete tapestry has been riveting.

I know I was really hard on this arc, but to its credit, it was a breezy watch unlike last week. Episode 9 was particularly great, and I did not feel chained to my couch.
