This article contains spoilers for Andor episode six
Andor episode six is now out on Disney Plus and delivers a tense, exciting, and incredibly satisfying heist that justifies the long set-up over the previous two episodes. The Rebel cell’s careful planning paid off, with their plan being executed as intended and them departing with a staggering amount of Imperial credits. There were a few sad casualties along the way, but you can’t make a Rebel Alliance omelet without breaking a few brave young idealist eggs.
But fans have also noted one bizarre element that’s never been seen before in live-action Star Wars. As Vel and Cinta hid nearby, a squad of Imperial army troopers passed and one paused to take a leak. The two women grimaced as they heard the spatter, but kept their cover. It’s a very small moment but helps cement the notion that the occupying Imperials don’t respect Aldhani in the slightest.
However, fans think this might be the first live-action urination in live-action Star Wars. As a user on r/StarWars said:
Another user theorizes about what’s coming next:
Others point out that while this might be the first live-action Star Wars peeing, we’ve already seen various animals do it, as well as the animated show Star Wars: Rebels showing Wedge using the “refresher”, and there’s an amusing moment where you walk in on Stormtroopers using the bathroom in 1995 first-person-shooter Dark Forces.
There also seems to be a loose theme developing, as The Mandalorian showcased a crucial element of life in space:
Let’s just say it’s nice that the live-action shows are finally getting to the nitty-gritty of life in a galaxy far, far away. These are tiny details, but ones that ground the universe in reality rather than simple space fantasy.
