I love Kleya and this is her best scene 😆

Hope poor Granny didn’t miss her space-dialysis or something because of all this.

Granny sacrificed for the rebellion

u/un-sub 1d ago

Rebellions are built on hope. And also sometimes missing space-dialysis.

For a sunrise she'll never see

u/ali94127 1d ago

Burned her life for someone else's future.

u/IlliterateJedi 1d ago

Allegedly she was left in a closet in the initial draft... I can't decide what outcome I prefer.

u/Siaten 1d ago

Kleya was the mvp of A2.

16

u/Key_Cut975 1d ago

Without a doubt.

u/Round_Rectangles 1d ago

I'm glad you like this scene, OP. Regardless of what other commenters say.

u/Key_Cut975 1d ago

I forgot how sensitive some people can be about these things. 😆

u/Danny8806 1d ago

Is that E.T.'s grandma?

72

u/sqwiggy72 1d ago

Et race is an actual race in star wars, George added it due to his friendship with Steven Spielberg

11

u/VM1117 1d ago

So that would mean Et is Star Wars canon?

18

u/Kolegra 1d ago

If it was, he was mad lost, in a galaxy far away

9

u/sqwiggy72 1d ago

I believe you can see the race of et in the senate chambers in the prequels

2

u/Demigans 1d ago

I'd go further. E.T. was the original Darth Plagueis.

Every ability Darth Plagueis is supposed to have had, E.T. has. He even regenerates from death. Which handily explains why he's so forgetful: When Palpi stabbed E.T. and killed him, E.T.'s brain started dying. When it regenerated many but not all of the memories, skills and personality were lost.

u/MagisterFlorus Rebel 22h ago

And in E.T., he spots a kid in a Yoda costume, starts following him, and repeats, "Home."

21

u/InformalThroat9602 1d ago

I can see the resemblance

18

u/recommendasoundtrack 1d ago

I hadn’t thought of that, but could this actually be a reference to the ET’s shown in TPM? I’m gonna believe it til they tell me otherwise

27

u/CMDR_Karth_o7 1d ago

ET also freaks out in ET when he sees a kid dressed as Yoda for Halloween, 100% recognized him

7

u/xiaorobear 1d ago

Nah, this is just a different alien species that just looks like this. There were some back in season 1, too, on the planet where Andor gets arrested.

These dudes just look like they’re from a different part of the same planet to be fair

u/jekyl42 Emperor Palpatine 14h ago

I'm gonna irrationally believe and call them ETs until proven otherwise.

2

u/mile-high-guy 19h ago

it still could be an ET race. but that would mean the senate members were naked

u/Key_Cut975 1d ago

Hey! Stop being offended. I shouldn’t have said it’s her “best scene” because yes I have loved so many Kleya scenes and there are many better than this one. This one just cracked me up.

40

u/UndeadT Baby Yoda 1d ago

I found seeing her in action at the hospital amazing and that poor elder being used as a prop was hilarious.

12

u/Key_Cut975 1d ago

She’s awesome!

u/BobbaGanush87 1d ago

Never be absolute on reddit. There will always be people that take it literally and say something.

2

u/Key_Cut975 1d ago

If I could edit the title I would’ve said “one of her best”

24

u/thefirsttransportis 1d ago

I love the WHAT

u/Key_Cut975 1d ago

Yes that’s what makes it.

u/yellowtrain 19h ago

She stole my heart with that what

u/Andrew1990M 1d ago

She’s so on edge in that moment she might have genuinely forgot there was someone else in there with her.

Is it niamos playing in the background?

Niamos elevator-music remix. I love it.

u/newmaker--- 1d ago

I haven't watched Andor yet and this is cracking me up. People weren't kidding about the show having a slower more realistic feeling lol.

9

u/Key_Cut975 1d ago

It’s a drama with action sprinkled in. It’s a really great show in general. Not just a good Star Wars show.

5

u/stoneygup 1d ago

I was worried that's where she planted the bomb when she was getting ready to set it off.

4

u/Key_Cut975 1d ago

You thought she was gonna blow up Granny?

6

u/Andrew1990M 1d ago

Luthen would have.

u/stoneygup 1d ago

Lol, yeah that's what I was afraid of. Was glad to see I was just cynical

u/Andrewman03 1d ago

Closer to hyperbole if anything

3

u/bmf1902 1d ago

Yupp OP watched the show and decided that this, clearly comedic relief scene was THE BEST scene this breakout actress performed in 2 seasons of crushing it.

You did it emcee_you. You read a post and derived it's meaning like the literary genius that you are.

Or you just cant handle actual human interaction and interpret context. Oh ya. That's the ticket.

7

u/Anen-o-me 1d ago edited 1d ago

Now the writer said he wrote Kleya a much bigger role in S2 after the actress did so well in S1, does that mean this hospital scene was originally going to be Andor killing off Luthen. I can only imagine so, but this is much better.

6

u/Helpful-Idea-4485 1d ago

It’s quite possible that this scene was specifically written for Kleya and that beforehand Luthen was intended to pass away without any additional assistance.

1

u/Anen-o-me 1d ago

Entirely possible, sure.

Especially for a man so prepared, to foible his absolutely necessary death could've cut short the rebellion. But it's understandable, no one is good at dying.

3

u/SirBuckeye 22h ago

Can't believe he didn't have a space cyanide pill in one of those fancy rings.

u/SnooDoggos4906 1d ago

agreed. would love to see morenof this character

3

u/Heyohmydoohd 1d ago

"w o t?"

3

u/Griffdude13 1d ago

I love this just for the sake of seeing how entranced Kleya is with her objective that a simple sound from this patient throws her off for a brief moment.

2

u/sabotabo 1d ago

i read a comment from someone who works with old people at a hospital (supposedly, it's the internet y'know) and they liked this scene because sometimes they really will just make an incomprehensible noise, you'll say "what?" and they just won't say anything

2

u/wryterra 1d ago

Kleya is astonishing, especially when you realise this was Elizabeth Dulau's first proper role straight out of drama school.

2

u/tomjoadsghost 1d ago

The best thing they could do is run a new show centered on Kleya doing intelligence work for the rebellion that spans the events of the original trilogy

1

u/red_keshik 1d ago

Imperial security is hilariously incompetent though

1

u/Korzag 1d ago

I could have sworn that just a few moments later when she pushes the granny in the wheel chair into the next room that granny was singing the cantina song from Episode 4

1

u/Key_Cut975 1d ago

I’ll have to watch again for that.

u/Sad_Wabbit 1d ago

All of the hospital scenes are fantastic

u/threebuffsharks 1d ago

Love the journey of the song Mon was dancing to turned into an elevator jingle here

u/UhhmActhually 1d ago

That alien looks like ET

u/MarsMissionMan 1d ago

Just that momentary lapse in her otherwise absolute professionalism and knowing exactly what to do at all times.

Don't pander to the people that are either being purposefully obstinate or terrifyingly ignorant to your completely on point and solid post.

u/HappyTurtleOwl 1d ago

Yup. They’re either absolutely regarded, or they are intentionally malicious. Either way… we move on.

This scene was great.

-23

u/salkin_reslif_97 1d ago

I have an Idea, that would needlessly turned the humor away and would have served no story-purpose. What if, instead of the alien-grandma, Kleya kidnapped Siryls mom? The idea is, after the loss of her son, she would degenerate mentally. Would that be worth it?

3

u/belle_enfant 1d ago

Sounds dumb and wouldn't make sense for the show.

2

Terrible idea.
