Andor Episode 11 Release Date, Recap, and Speculation

Andor episode 10 was 45 minutes of pure entertainment. What started with depressed prisoners went on to have one of the best prison heists in the Star Wars universe.

The political scheming of Mon Mothma in concoction with the espionage sequences of Lonny and Luthen have made the final episodes of Andor a treat to watch.

So, let’s try to find out what will happen next week!

Watch the trailer of Andor episode 11 here:

1. Episode 10 Synopsis/Speculation

The prison break finally happens in this week’s episode, and it is so satisfying to see the prisoners finally taste freedom. It is somewhat tarnished by the disaster that strikes Kino Loy. He reveals that he can’t swim and stays in prison while the others jump.

Now, we don’t know about the aftermath of Kino’s decision. Do the guards catch him? Maybe they come back and torture him to death? Or does Dr. Gorst use his torture device on Kino to extract information about the escape?

Talking about the aftermath of the escape, Andor and Melshi are seen in a barren land in Narkina 5. We know that they will escape Narkina 5 as they will feature in Rogue One later. Will episode 11 tell us about their whereabouts? Hopefully!

We see Andor and Melshi escape to a place with three moons. Is it possible that they are on the planet Naboo? Naboo has been described as having three moons in the previous Star Wars creatives. 

So, Andor and Melshi land in Naboo, team up with Jar Jar Binks, and that is how season 1 ends. A plausible theory? Maybe!

As for Luthen and Loony, we need more details about Loony’s future and involvement in the rebellion. Will Luthen finally accept his resignation? I don’t think so.

Dedra Meero will head back to Steergard to gather more information on the Imperial technology. I believe Orson Krennic will be introduced in Episode 11.

Orson Krennic should be a big part of season 2. It’ll be exciting to see the involvement of Rogue One’s main antagonist in its build-up.

The trailer also hints at another possible heist. Kreegyr’s pilot is still held captive at the ISB. Luthen Rael will team up with Saw Garrera and plan a heist to bring him back.

And yes, we will get a lot of space fights. The trailer shows a spaceship-lightsaber thingy, and that should be interesting to watch in action.

Meanwhile, people on Ferrix will likely be in full-on rebellion against the Imperial government. Andor will return to Ferrix to find out that Meero has killed his mother, Maarva. It will be the nail in the coffin for the self-centered thief. Andor will become a full-fledged rebellion from then on.

These are just speculations. They may or may not be true.

As for this episode, it is one of the best ones in the series so far. It began with diplomacy and went on to include some sassy dialogues and the perfect prison heist.

Andor will surely fix its place in the hearts of Star Wars fans if the last two episodes live up to this one.

4. Where to Watch Andor

5. Andor Episode 10 Recap

If you were in your own spaceship and missed this week’s episode, then we have got you covered:

Cassian Andor finally convinces Kino Loy to support him in his plans to escape prison. Ulaf’s body is taken away. Cassian plans to escape the following day when Ulaf’s replacement is scheduled to arrive.

Kino Loy finally walks up to the prisoners and delivers a moving speech that convinces them to execute Andor’s plan together.

Meanwhile, Mon Mothma and her banker Tay Kolma meet a sleazy-looking financier Davo Skeldon. He comes up with an offer from the world of Game of Thrones. In lieu of laundering Mon’s money, He wants his 14-year-old son to marry Mon Mothma’s 13-year-old daughter.

Mon doesn’t take his nonsense and asks Tay to escort him out.

In Narkina-5, the prisoners manage to escape, but Kino Loy isn’t able to make it out because he can’t swim.

The episode ends with a meeting between Luthen Rael and Lonni Jung. Lonny Jung is a mole in the empire, working for the rebellion group. The conversation is ironic because Luthen can’t stop talking about what he has given for the rebellion. On the other hand, Lonny knows that it is nothing compared to the hardships he’s had to face. 

Lonny declares that he is resigning. He has a kid, and the rebellion is too dangerous for him.  Luthen turns down the resignation and implores him to continue working for the rebellion.
