In the latest episode of Star Wars: Andor, Dedra Meero shows her commitment and her capabilities as she hunts the rising rebellion. From her first appearance, Dedra stands out from other members of the Imperial Security Bureau (ISB). She is passionate about her service to the Empire, but shows more rationality than most of her superiors.
Dedra’s gut instinct convinces her to stand up to her superiors and investigate the missing Imperial equipment on Ferrix. Her immediate supervisor, Blevin, is hesitant, but Major Partagaz overrides him and gives Dedra control of the Ferrix investigation. In the time since, she has found a Separatist pilot Salman Paak and Bix Caleen. She uses Dr. Gorst’s torture methods to ruthlessly acquire the necessary information out of each captive. By the end of the episode, Dedra is getting ready to interrogate a rebel pilot in custody.

Unlike her commanding officers, Dedra had to painstakingly work her way up through the ranks, which gives her motivation to show off her skill set. She also has a unique gift to see patterns in seemingly random pieces of data. She is the only ISB officer able to connect Cassian Andor to the Aldhani raid. With each new lead, Dedra’s energy is renewed and she is relentless in her pursuit of information.
Dedra is especially dangerous because she is sincere in her devotion to the Empire. She is willing to use any means necessary to track down any threat to the Empire, and she shows no qualms in using brutal tactics like Gorsh’s methods.
Despite this commitment, Dedra is not much of a team player. She has no trouble going around the rules for the sake of efficiency, and she is as likely to manipulate the people working for her as the people she’s working against. Dedra also has the misfortune to be one of the only high-ranking women in the Empire, so she has to constantly prove herself capable. This combination of a rational and devoted ISB agent with a tendency to go rogue may be the Rebels’ greatest threat yet.
