Warning: Major spoilers for "Andor" season two.

"Andor" season two sparked backlash among fans by including the first reference to s assault in "Star Wars." Actor Adria Arjona said she had in-depth conversations to get her story right. The series takes place five years before the events of the 2016 movie, "Rogue One: A Star Wars Story," which is a prequel to 1977's "Star Wars: Episode IV — A New Hope."

Arjona plays Bix Caleen, a rebel fighter who was tortured by the Empire in "Andor" season one and is experiencing PTSD. In the third episode of season two, Imperial Lieutenant Krole (Alex Waldmann) attempts to force himself on her while she's hiding on a farming planet.

In the scene, he references the fact that she is an "illegal" and offers to stay quiet as long as she sleeps with him. When Caleen refuses, Krole attacks her, and she kills him with a wrench.

"Andor" doesn't shy away from the attempted (s)assault, as Caleen angrily says, "He tried to ra£€ me."
