Dude honestly it was my annoying comments that I was hinting towards Tech dying actually did and I can't believe you guys didn't pay attention. To my comment. It's the comment text's going to die because it's been hinting towards that every time when I've seen this episode that Tech actually got character developed in. It's very obvious but you guys just ignore them and start hating on characters like hunter record and omega when she actually doesn't mess up she. Hasn't messed up any of the missions? She's been on since the ones you're talking about in the past.😂

Counterpoint to them giving up, remember they've always been separate from the Regs, until Echo joined, and had never lost a squad member until Crosshair, which wasn't the same cause he was still alive. Counter to Echo (who btw, I don't think was giving up, I think he was taking a moment to mourn and let the others recover) who lost his entire squad and several others along the way. They simply were not mentally or emotionally prepared for it.

I think this can explain a lot of their irrational decisions. They (besides Echo) have never experienced this before, and it hit them hard in a way they were not prepared for. Echo, on the other hand, is all too familiar with this situation. He is still very affected by it; he and Tech were close. But he is able to put feelings aside and be rational and logical when the Empire comes, because he has had to do it many times before.

I'm not at all sure what he would latch onto in the middle of traversing a giant valley like that but you never know. Or maybe he'll end up needing one of those mods like Fennec Shand.

I will note that the main reason their mission failed was because Saw Guerra and his Partisans happened to be on planet with their own mission and they basically fucked everything up. If they had not been there it would have been easy to sneak in plant the tracker and get out before the Empire noticed them. I'll also note it was Saw's explosives that shorted out the rail line thus causing Tech to have to take the VERY risky move to restart the line manually, in addition to Tarkin deciding to be an asshole as usual and decide that danger close friendly fire was a good idea. There also is one thing you didn't mention in the video they still don't know where Tantis is, let alone know when an opportunity to track Hemlock after that one would emerge again this may have been their only shot as far as they know to actually track the guy and without tracking him there is no way to find Tantis, now we as the fans know it is on Wayland but the Bad Batch does not and hell if they adhere to EU lore Wayland may not even be in their navigation options as Wayland got removed from Republic records by a clerical error some centuries before the Clone Wars in the EU, which if that is also the case its even HARDER to find Mount Tantis. Essentially Hunter's decision to give up may just have been from both trauma and the fact that as far as they know the odds of them getting another chance at tracking Hemlock to Tantis are about as good as their odds of single-handly storming the Imperial Palace and killing Palpatine by themselves VERY low. Anyway the large issue of all this is that the Empire won this battle and not due to Imperial competance but because Saw showed up and threw a hydrospanner into the plan, once I saw him there I knew immediately the plan was ruined and not going to survive contact with the enemy in fact they'd have been better off stealing an Imperial shuttle like Saw and his Partisans did then taking the train, fly to the Marauder and transfer over and get out instead taking the train. Murphey's Law was in full effect with this mission everything that could have gone wrong did go wrong though it was not the Bad Batch's fault for it, if Saw and his Partisans had NOT been there they would have successfully planted the tracker and gotten out.

I think the Cid part was out of desperation. They had no choice cause the only one who knew how to care for Omega has last with Cid, that being AZI-3. Also, it makes sense that AZI-3 is still with Cid cause they broke connection on a whim so they didn't have the foresight to bring him along on the mission they ended getting betrayed by Cid on. When you're loved one is in danger you tend not to think strait so rather than taking a chance on a planet that just went through a natural disaster and is probably a bit strained for recourses, you'd head to a for sure medical droid that knows Omega to help them recover.

I agree. I’ll add two points. They just made literally the worst non-sith human in the galaxy mad. Being tracked back to anywhere near Pabu would be bad…the assumption being the empire would spend whatever resources required to find them. Visiting every system in their flight path. Going immediately to Pabu was probably a no-go. Two, and this is a bit more real, when your kid is hurt or sick, you aren’t doing a whole lot of analytical thinking. And they don’t have a ton of good options except one that definitely has a med droid. So I give that more of a pass. Tech was the thinker under fire anyway.

I 100% agree. In the heat of the moment on the railway it seemed likely, but when Hemlock showed up with the goggles, I felt like it was almost obvious that he's still alive. Tech is smart enough to try and do something like fake his death in order to lose the heat of the Empire. How they would bring him back is questionable because he would have to get off world alive. The other possibility is Hemlock took tech and is going to control him. Me personally, even though Tech is my favorite out of the batch, I didn't feel like Tech's sacrifice in the episode was as impactful as it could've been. However, it might be because we were left on a cliffhanger for the season finale. As of writing this I don't think there is a confirm on a season 3, but I think it's obvious that we will be getting one.

Firstly, love the content of the channel as always. Secondly, I've a few observations from the finale & predictions of what we might see in the future of "The Bad Batch". === Observation: My opinion or hypothesis on the matter of the squad travelling to Sid's is because of distance vs severity of injuries. Sure, the new homestead the squad is thinking of settling down and remaining in is safe, and they most likely have all amenities needed for recovery. Sid's business/planet was probably closer in regards to hyperspace jumps required or length-of-time in hyperspace. Just so happens Sid was tired of the bad batch and called the empire when they arrived. ==== Predictions/Theories: Moving into Season 3 I'm sure in the prediction that Hunter & Wrecker will most likely go all in with Rex & Echo with those efforts. What else have they got until they find a way to get back to Omega & Crosshair at Hemlocks lab? --- I also predict at least a small time-jump because of the earlier prediction, or possibly some moving back and forwards in timelines (like with "Tales of the Jedi" portraying Ahsoka & Dooku respectively). I'm also curious what types of experimentation we'll be seeing on the clones. A theory I have is that Hemlock is one of the minds behing the "purge troopers" we had seen in Jedi: Fallen Order. Those troopers' helmets strongly resemble Crosshair's, and there's at least 2-3 varients of Purge Trooper that I think fit the "mutations/motifications" of the Bad Batch clones. And if I recall correctly, the Purge Troopers are canonically clones (be they original Fett clones or later productions is another question). ==== Sorry for the long post, and may the force be with you.

I don't entirely agree with one of the points in this video. That point being Echo giving up along with the others. I never thought he did, he never voiced that, and we only see him sitting in the shuttle distraught for a few seconds before the empire shows up and he's thrown back into the fray. I think Echo's only reason to go back to Pabu would have been to make sure his brothers got there in one piece before boarding his own ship and rejoining Rex, Riyo, and the others (because he did leave his ship on Pabu too so he has to go back there no matter what). Another thing I'd like to add too is unlike the others who have never really had a team member die, Echo has gone through way more trauma than they have, so as sad as he would be about Tech dying, I don't see that being enough to deter him, if anything I think it would fuel him to continue his efforts.

There is a thing that gave me a slight suspicion about Tech fate: when Hemlock gives Tech's googles to Omega he said that is the only thing that he was able to salvage, which is weird considering that someone recovered them and propably did not fall far from Tech body. Could be just a far cry with a lot of copium in it, but BB writing seems to put things with a foreshadowing logic and the fact that a New Zealand VA dubbed one of the character is an evidence.

He was wearing his helmet too. His helmet would have to had been removed first before his goggles would even have a chance to fall off. I suspect that those goggles aren’t for poor vision but rather they serve a tactical purpose and broke on the way down and he just left them behind because they now serve no purpose. I do not believe tech is dead.

It’s Copium. Tech’s body most likely wasn’t salvaged because he was crushed and splattered all over the ground. Basically nothing worth noting would remain from that fall except the goggles since they’re lighter and would survive the fall easier. Anyways even if he did live, Hemlock would have 0 reason to hide his survival since he would’ve used to to get to Omega.

He went to Ord Mantell bc AZI came with Omega and was best suited to help her. That decision qas made bc Hunter the father wanted the best possible care for his daughter. If he took her to Pabu, he didn't know what kind of care was there. He needed AZI. It makes sense knowing that. It wasn't contrived. It was emotional. Those slow episodes showed Hunter transitioning from Hunter the rational soldier to Hunter the over protective father.

The reason why they seemed so sure they needed to settle down is because Clone Force 99 had NEVER lost a member yet.

But this was much more realistic, honestly, and I'm sure it'll make next season all the more rewarding when they pull it off, honestly we'd pretty much seen the Bad Batch run circles around the Empire for a while, it was kinda refreshing to see them take a substantial loss, obviously the loss of Tech was VERY unexpected, and I'll miss him, but I'm sure they'll make his sacrifice worthwhile

Echo is likely planning an rescue of the clones and will of went back to Rex after helping the bad batch. Echo being accepted as a clone was probably normal the kaminoas have done plenty of cloning in the past and most people either thought she was an experiment or all clones just consider themselves siblings by simply being related by kaminoas cloning

I’ve been saying the exact same thing how the sister plot twist at the end made no sense. It didn’t help that it came completely out of nowhere, with little to no buildup or foreshadowing. Throwing in sudden plot twists like this at the last minute tends to throw the narrative flow off-course and add complications where they aren’t needed. (And personally, I was really hoping Omega’s origins tied to Jango Fett’s long-lost sister Arla from Legends.) That being said, I’m not optimistic that this Emery twist will improve the show.

On the note of Echo, Hunter, and Wrecker completely giving up, you also gotta remember that Tech’s loss was still fresh on their minds. When you lose someone, especially in the context of fighting for something you believe in, suddenly the goal you were fighting for doesn’t matter to you anymore. Not right after the fact, at least. Yes, new resolve can bloom afterwards, but the loss is still devastating and apathy tends to take control until the fog clears. As for Echo being a bit cold about it, I kinda see it as a testament to what he’s been through already. The Bad Batch have never lost one of their one before. But Echo? Echo’s lost a lot of brothers and been through unspeakable trauma. It makes sense to me at least that he’d be a little numb to it all, even if he and Tech were close. Plus… he’s Echo. He’s always been pretty unemotional.

Omega was never going to accept that. Knowing her only family was going out to take a risk to save a lost member of their family, she would move mountains to do something to help, no matter how irrational or risky it was. They all knew Omega well enough to know she would rather risk her own death than let them fight without her help. Forcibly making her stay would be a huge blow to their trust and relationship. And she'd probably find some way to intervene anyway like getting Phee or someone else to help smuggle her aboard the Marauder. They probably figured it was better to willingly take her along since she's proven that she can handle herself and can coordinate with them under pressure. Besides, they can look after her more directly and stop her from taking stupid risks if she's not trying to hide from them while trying to "help" at the same time.

I'm really confused about the vibes I get from Tech's death. On one hand he couldn't survive such a fall, which should make the matter pretty clear, on the other hand if this is his death, it could have been made more clear to the viewers that this is really his end. Falling down and disappearing into the clouds makes it very ambiguous if he actually died or not. I think he's dead and would prefer it that way, but it's not clear enough for me to completely buy into it and that makes it very difficult for me to decide how to react to it. I feel I should be sad about his death, but I just have too many doubts about if he is actually dead or not to be capable of having the weight of the moment set in. Star Wars has been doing so many fake-outs and brought so many characters back from the dead recently, that with every major death that does happen, I just immediately doubt if this death is actually legitimate and that kind of ruins the weight that such scenes would probably carry.

I’m not sure about his fate either. The fact that the goggles were off of his head if that’s all they could salvage is quite odd. And although they are force users, Maul survived his fall and Windu could very well have survived his. I think Tech was probably either captured and Hemlock died, faked his death, or somehow got so damaged that his helmet broke without it being crushed by the damn block of metal falling on it because I don’t think the empire would have removed Tech’s body from under there

I think I'm still processing the finale. I actually appreciated that it ended with tragedy and hopelessness. It makes you feel more invested in the characters and the story if they feel vulnerable and not untouchable. I really grew to like Tech this season. I appreciated how they grew his character and I think he grew to be my second favourite of the squad (Echo will always be #1). Some of Hunter's decisions were confusing but I think they are somewhat understandable because he wasn't really thinking rationally after the failed mission. Hunter was never really on board with the mission in the first place. It was actually Tech who said "we don't leave out own behind" and was the most eager to save Crosshair. Loosing Tech cuts deep for them. Clone Force 99 (besides Echo) haven't experienced what it's like to have a squad member die. Tech was the one who convinced Hunter to go after Crosshair and now that Tech is gone Hunter feels too defeated. And of course when Omega is injured, Hunter goes into a panic and makes the irrational and desperate decision to go back to Cid. Thinking about it logically we know that is a bad choice, but Hunter is not in a rational or logical mindset. There may not be adequate medical droids on Pabu to care for battle injuries and while Rex's network probably has resources, Hunter wants nothing to do with all that. Going to Couruscant would be a big risk too. So he chooses to go to AZI. He probably doesn't expect Cid to be THAT low. She has shown some care towards Omega before. And Hunter is desperate. We also don't know how long Omega was unconscious for so she could have been quite injured. When Hunter suggests to Omega about staying on Pabu, I think that is a reaction to him being scared to put his squad in danger again. It seems impossible to find Crosshair, and to Hunter he doesn't think it's worth losing the rest of his squad to try to save him. In contrast, Echo is no stranger to losing squadmates. But I think he feels somewhat responsible for what happened because he convinced them to leave the safety of Pabu, and it cost Tech his life. Echo also seemed to be the closest with Tech out of them and probably misses him a lot; he's lost enough in life. I didn't interpret the ending to mean that Echo is abandoning Rex and the network. But at that very moment he probably felt quite defeated; it feels impossible to find Hemlock. It was such a tragic ending for Omega. We already saw how hard she took it when Echo left and when life started changing. Now Tech is gone permanently (probably) and she is taken from her family. The season really built up on characters and emotions to make this ending really depressing. And I had already guessed that woman was a clone too. They definitely alluded to there being something up with her in previous episodes. I'm excited to see where they take it from here. I'm guessing that Hunter and Wrecker will join up with Echo and Rex's network since they're all trying to find Mt Tantiss. And I'm glad at least Crosshair and Omega have each other now. I honesty couldn't have cared less about Crosshair at the beginning of the season, but now I just want him to be reunited with his brothers.

They have done a great job at developing the characters this season.
