Crunching on another tasty-to-me "Rix Road"/"Who Are You?" parallel: the way in 1.12 Syril and Dedra are both on Ferrix looking for Cassian, who ends up playing almost no role in the riot that brings them together, but who does bust Bix out of Imperial detention vs.

the way in 2.08 Cassian is on Ghorman looking for Dedra, and he ends up playing very little role in the massacre other than inadvertently separating her from Syril - even though neither Syril nor Dedra knew Cassian would be there - and then stealing Kay from Imperial possession
