"Who Else Knows?" is the eleventh episode of the second season of the American science fiction political spy thriller drama television series Andor. It is the twenty-third episode of the series overall; it was written by Tom Bissell and directed by Alonso Ruizpalacios.

Plot

Dedra is interrogated by Krennic, who admonishes her for allowing the Death Star plans to be leaked from her database and for confronting Luthen without sufficient backup. The investigation into Dedra is assigned to her former assistant, Heert, who identifies Kleya from security footage. Partagaz declares Kleya a public health concern to expedite her arrest. In the Coruscant safehouse, Kleya sends Wilmon a distress signal, prompting him to send Cassian, Melshi, and K-2SO there to retrieve Luthen, alienating the group further from Yavin IV leadership. Dedra gives Heert insight into Luthen's communications technologies from her cell, enabling his team to track Kleya's signal to the safehouse, where they arrive close behind Cassian and Melshi. Kleya passes on Luthen's crucial intelligence, but asks to stay behind given the distrust of Luthen among the rebels on Yavin IV. As Heert's team closes in, K-2SO breaks into the building in pursuit.

Production

Writing

The final three episodes of the season cover the three days prior to the start of Rogue One (2016), with Gilroy saying "it'll be, like, four or five days, and then we'll jump a year, and then there'll be another four or five days, and then we jump a year", with the final shot leading into Rogue One.

Casting

In "Who Else Knows?", marking his third appearance on Andor, Ben Mendelsohn reprises his role as Orson Krennic from previous Star Wars media, including Rogue One, in which he served as the main antagonist.

Mike Redmond of Pajiba also gave a positive review, summarizing that "Have I mentioned Elizabeth Dulau rocks? Elizabeth Dulau rocks. If you leave with anything, make it that".
