What do you need? A uniform, some dirty hands and an Imperial tool kit. They’re so proud of themselves, they don’t even care. They’re so fat and satisfied, they can’t imagine it.

It’s such a beautiful line. We don’t need to see Cassian stealing the Starpath unit. Bix accuses him of stealing the part from some piece of salvage of hers. But that one line lets us see that Cassian waltzed into the Steergard naval shipyards and stole the unit then sat on it for a while until he needed the cash. I love that line. And I think it was **that** single line that endears him to Luthen. Just doing my 12th rewatch of the show. It only gets better. Every detail is amazing. I love the stair droid when Luthen is landing in the skybus. The old guy moaning about the overcharging. Maarva sitting in the ruins of her house after the corpos ransack it, and her cold breath(After Brasso mentioned she could afford to put her heating on earlier). And, best of all, the following three episode arc where the imperial officer in charge is “fat and satisfied”. And literally doesn’t see the heist coming. It’s not just great Star Wars(That proves you don’t have to use the Jedi and lightsabers to fill the gaps in writing), it’s great storytelling full stop. I know others have said this more eloquently than I. But it’s great to watch and absorb it again and again.
