Arjona arrived and noted her excitement over having six Latinos on the day's show. To commemorate the occasion, Guillermo Rodriguez joined them onstage and offered them shots. While he and Arjona drank them in full, Luna left a bit in his shot glass. 

"Oh, shoot. You went for it!" said Luna. 

"You didn't take it?" Arjona asked. "I thought you were Mexican!" 

Arjona and Luna discussed their first meeting and the chance to work in the "Star Wars" universe, something that completely changed their careers and opened the door to many opportunities.

"I met Diego when we did the test for Andor," said Arjona, revealing that she was in a room with him and Tony Gilroy, the series' writer and creator. 

After completing two rounds of interviews and thinking she had failed, Gilroy turned to Arjona and said, "Welcome to Star Wars, Kid."

"He changed my life in 10 minutes," said Arjona.

Luna and Arjona also discussed the secretive nature of their jobs, with them having to study their lines on an iPad and being unable to print their scripts. "You took it so seriously. You did. I mean, I was secretive, but I told a couple of people. They can't fire me! The show's done," said Arjona with a laugh. She also revealed that she and her co-star, Stellan Skarsgard, took pictures of the scripts on the iPad and printed them so they could study at home, something that horrified Luna. 

"Did you tell your mom?" asked Luna. 

"No. Absolutely not. That is the one person I stayed away from because the whole island of Puerto Rico would have found out," she said.
