All that horror endured in Narkina 5, only for the truest of all gut punches: having made it back to Niamos with Melshi to retrieve his money and his blaster, Cassian thinks he’s about to return home and reunite with his mother… only to learn that Maarva Andor is no more. Diego Luna plays the moment incredibly well, full of heartbreak and regret, as he parts ways with his fellow escapee and, in a fitting parallel to his final moments in Rogue One, looks out across Niamos’ serene ocean.
