[QUOTE="Celebrim, post: 8817545, member: 4937"] You said it yourself. "He thought that playing his little part in the system would get him out." For Kino, and really for most people, that's what a just world looks like. Most people's just world is just the world that impacts them and if they play the game - whatever that game is - by the rules they'll get what they think they'll have earned. Not everyone is Thomas Acquinas or Karis Nemik. I guess that's a matter of opinion, but I read this in the way his demeanor changes to Andor between the two episodes. Andor has become part of the team. It's the shared comradery of hardship. There are some serious parallels here to infantry platoons at war that I think are probably intentional (40 man, divided into 7 teams, each with a team leader). Andor last episode was a green recruit. Now he's part of the platoon, and even looking like NCO material and despite his rabble rousing, treated like that. If any of these rooms gets out intact, that's going to be the makings of some seriously elite Rebel infantry. All they need is weapons training, and I would be very scared. [/QUOTE]
