14) “Never More Than Twelve”
Spending two full episodes with Cassian locked in the harsh prison of Narkina 5 at his lowest makes this moment—where he finally breaks down his section supervisor and fellow prisoner Kino Loy, played to perfection by Andy Serkis, to help start formulating a plan to break out. Cassian tries earlier in the episode to poke and prod at Loy, get him to see the horror he’s helping maintain, but it takes the tragic death of their fellow inmate Ulaf, and the evil realization that the Empire ‘frees’ prisoners on Narkina 5 to simply re-assign them to another prison, to crack him and tell Cassian how many guards are on each level.
