The distance between what is said, and what is known to be true, has become an abyss.” You don’t say. This week on Disney+’s Andor, Season 2’s ninth episode revolved around Senator Mon Mothma (played by franchise vet Genevieve O’Reilly) doing her best to open the Imperial Senate’s eyes to the catastrophes unfolding on Ghorman.

Warning: SPOILERS for this week’s Andor episodes are ahead! “Who Are You?”, the second of the three Andor Season 2 episodes that premiered on the 2025 TV schedule, depicted the Ghorman Massacre, an event that had already been mentioned in Star Wars history.

Andor creator Tony Gilroy has explained why Mon Mothma's iconic anti-Empire speech naming Emperor Palpatine as being behind the Ghorman Massacre was changed from its initial iteration in Star Wars Rebels.
