The impending speech is none other than the stirring call to arms delivered by Mon Mothma in Star Wars Rebels.

Warning: SPOILERS for this week’s Andor episodes are ahead! “Who Are You?”, the second of the three Andor Season 2 episodes that premiered on the 2025 TV schedule, depicted the Ghorman Massacre, an event that had already been mentioned in Star Wars history.

Andor creator Tony Gilroy has explained why Mon Mothma's iconic anti-Empire speech naming Emperor Palpatine as being behind the Ghorman Massacre was changed from its initial iteration in Star Wars Rebels.
