The Perspex-domed sink in Cassian Andor’s Niamos hotel room was modelled after a similar sink in the Lars homestead in Star Wars: A New Hope. The Andor build is one of the few appearances of a refresher, the in-universe name for a toilet, discretely hidden in the sink and shower unit.

    • The Perspex-domed sink in Cassian Andor’s Niamos hotel room was modelled after a similar sink in the Lars homestead in Star Wars: A New Hope. The Andor build is one of the few appearances of a refresher, the in-universe name for a toilet, discretely hidden in the sink and shower unit.
    • The design brief for B2EMO was a cross between a Rubik’s Cube and a tool box, which should also evoke and behave like the Andor’s family dog. His charging station was often referred to as a “dog bed” by the crew.
    • For Niamos’ KX-units, stunt performers used the same performance capture rigs and stilts that actor Alan Tudyk utilized for K-2SO in Rogue One: A Star Wars Story.
    • Niamos was shot at the waterfront of Cleveleys, England, just north of the resort town of Blackpool.
    • An art exhibition space at a defunct boarding school, Carmel College, near Wallingford, England, served as the Niamos courthouse interior set.
    • Graphic designer Elle McKee came up with the idea of using Ralph McQuarrie production paintings for the Perspex postcards sold at the tourist shop on Niamos.
    • This episode marks an appearance by Colonel Wulff Yularen, who has a convoluted origin in Star Wars storytelling. Though he is said to be in Star Wars: A New Hope, the character was an unnamed extra in a white uniform during the Death Star conference room scene. The Star Wars customizable card game (1995) named him, and identified him as an ISB officer. Later, Star Wars: The Clone Wars (2008) used that character as the basis of a Republic fleet admiral, voiced by Tom Kane. That same admiral was then depicted in Star Wars Rebels in his ISB role.
    • Visible in Luthen’s gallery in this episode are such artifacts as a Kel Dor breather mask, a Jedi Temple Guard mask, and a Gungan shield.
    • Peezos are a form of legal pep pill or stimulant popular on both bustling Coruscant and laid back Niamos. On Coruscant, there’s a holographic ad for Peezos, as well as a reminder message from the ISB to always carry your chain code ID.
    • As Kleya makes her way from the transit station, some stormtrooper chatter calls out "LUH 341," which is a reference to LUH 3417, Maggie McOmie’s character in THX 1138 -- George Lucas’ first feature film.
    • The flashback to the Rix Road protest -- and "Clem" Andor’s unfortunate role in it -- takes place during the first year of the Empire, before the full transition from clone trooper to stormtrooper forces.
    • The dataplaques that serve as records of sentencing on Niamos include Easter egg mentions rather than being true in-universe prisoners. This includes Richard Stevenson being sentenced for five years, and Keith Seymour (set dec concept artist, and suspected Force-sensitive) set to serve 25 years.
