Cassian must carefully navigate the distrust inherent in being the new member of the secret operation.
Plot[]
On Aldhani, 'Clem' hides his past from his fellow rebels, distrust from most of them, particularly Arvel Skeen. Taramyn Barcona trains Cassian and the other rebels for the planned heist. While traveling to the Aldhani Imperial garrison, Cassian reveals that he is a mercenary. The team leader Vel decides to continue with the mission and hold off dealing with 'Clems past until they have achieved their objectives.
Meanwhile, the Imperial officer and rebel double agent Lieutenant Gorn secretly aids Vel's team. On Coruscant, Syril Karn explores new career prospects with Eedy's help. Mon Mothma also establishes a new charitable foundation while managing increasingly tense relations with her husband and daughter. Elsewhere, ISB supervisor Blevin acquires a hotel as the new ISB headquarters on Ferrix. Meanwhile, his rival Meero and her assistant Heert discovers evidence that the rebels are conducting a series of coordinated heists of Imperial weapons and technology. Rael anxiously waits for a transmission from Cassian's rebel team.
