History Fridge / Andor

* With the post-credit scene's revelation that [[spoiler:the prisoners on Narkina 5 were constructing parts for the Death Star all along, it colors their refusal to release prisoners in a new way. Even if the prisoners never knew precisely what they were helping to build, the Empire would never risk laborers cottoning on to even a fraction of such top-secret plans as their planet killer involved.]]

** Seriously, why should one assume they all drowned due to only Cassian and Melshi being shown afterwards? The audience gets to see Cassian after the jailbreak as he's the show's star and Melshi gets to be seen as well due to his friendship with Cassian. The other prisoners may have made it to land but just don't appear because this isn't their show.

* Cassian has a distinct habit in this show of always sniff-testing any drinks that are handed to him before taking a sip, implying that he's been poisoned or had his drink spiked before. He also hunches over his food so that someone can't take it, a habit common to people who have been incarcerated, like Cassian has. It stands out that the first time he ''doesn't'' sniff-test his drink is when Nemik hands him a cup the day of the heist, indicating that he trusts Nemik.
* When Cassian gets accosted by a Shoretrooper on Niamos and left with a KX droid instructed to "hang onto him", the droid interprets it literally and {{Neck Lift}}s an ineffectually begging Cassian and slams him into a wall. You laugh at the BlackComedy before the scene cuts to Cassian's adopted father hanging publicly in the street for being ''near'' a public disturbance, never mind that he was trying to stop it, and it sinks in that Cassian's just been subjected to PoliceBrutality yet again.
* The prison on Narkina 5 only has ''human prisoners'' implying the Empire has even worse in store for aliens sent to prison.
* The Narkina 5 prison break had 5 thousand men jump into the ocean in order to swim to freedom, yet when we cut back to the prison break, only Cassian and Melshi are shown to have made it to land. How many prisoners drowned trying to make it to land?
* As successful and awesome as the Narkina 5 prison break is, one has to wonder how it's going to break the Empire out of their complacency towards their own prisoners, and thus make it harder for other prisoners in other facilities to stage similar breakouts once Imperial authorities make adjustments.

* Kino not being able to swim pairs perfectly with Luthen's speech about working for a future he won't be able to see. Kino choose certain death to give others a chance at freedom he can't have himself.

* This series is notable for having the first usage of the BBY (Before the Battle of Yavin, or the destruction of the first Death Star at the end of ''Film/ANewHope'') dating system in an official audiovisual ''Star Wars'' work. However, since Cassian dies in 0 BBY, mere days before the Death Star's destruction, the dating system is also inherently a countdown on his life.

* During the ISB briefing, Meero gives Luthel Rael (who they've yet to identify) the codename Axis. "Axis" can also be another word for "Fulcrum," which was the codename used by Rebel intelligence operatives, starting with Ahsoka Tahno.

* Tying the shuttle to a piece of salvage actually makes sense. Sabotaging the engines or any other part of the shuttle could possibly be detected by the computers. Just attaching it to something heavy, on the other hand, isn't detected until it's too later.
