[@artiemedley9369]

One of the best episodes of the season. Watching Emery realize that Omega was right in real time was fascinating.

[@gracec8c]

Yeah honestly Emery might be my favorite character right now. There is something so compelling and horrifyingly real about someone who has been raised in a cruel world that has convinced herself she has to maintain it because she believes she has no other options. She's aware she's doing terrible things (unlike the clones under the chips), but she views her only alternatives would bring more suffering to herself/other clones. I can't wait for her to finally step up and fight (and hopefully survive lol).

I love how Tarkin is so petty and psychotic that when Hemlock tells him it’s classified, he immediately threatens his life. 😂

[@gbozzi05_]

13:30 from what i understood: they’re using the force sensitive blood from the kids and mixing with the clones' DNA they’ve been experimenting on to know if it’s possible to replicate the donor's M-count with no degradation.

[@yetibeardson1168]

Basically yeah. So that Palpatine can clone himself with his full force powers. Hence, "Project Necromancer"

[@gummybearchewy5444]

Exactly and Omega’s blood is the binding agent for that process.

[@Depth217]

The dead serious scowls on the guys’ faces during all the scenes with the children, particularly Calvin, were really sobering.

[@unicornburger16]

Aaron talking about Melanie’s reaction to Ventress was great 🤣

[@SGz_Eliminated]

Anyone who has or is around kids will know there is something quite unsettling when their quiet. When there's no little voices, laughter or joy its really easy to pick up on. I think that's what this episode was going for, Eric was spot on about it all being about the soundscape

[@fuzzyotterpaws4395]

I just watched Bad Batch season 3 episode 10 and it was my favorite yet. The emotional intrigue and music and everything was surprisingly great. Reminded me of the Andor prison episodes

[@khelatar]

'Devil's Deal', the first Ryloth episode in S1, had about five minutes of Clone Force 99 and Omega. The "no Bad Batch" episode was in season 2 - 'The Clone Conspiracy' was all about senator Chuchi.

[@shugaroony]

The Empire doesn't have loyalty to its members, as its in the image of Darth Sidious himself. A Sith. They have no loyalty to one another, so why should his Empire? There are some depressing episodes of Star Wars out there, but this one might be the most disturbing of them. I'm not a parent, but this is a BRUTAL watch.

[@australopithecus_lucis]

The whole kidnapping of that baby was so heartbreaking for me. It reminded me a lot of Po's backstory in Kung Fu Panda 2, but at least they let him have his plush toy. I wouldn't have recovered emotionally if it stayed behind

[@SpiralSine6]

They really made the toddler and its mother the most innocent looking species in Star Wars didn’t they, like I felt so much worse for them than I thought I would.

[@Depth217]

I loved that Bane was really quiet and cryptic in this episode even if he still made some sadistic remarks. Reminded me of his portrayal in Boba Fett when he’s this ominous Angel of death.

[@johannesbowers7467]

Tarkin: " I am concerned about your project's financial impact." Hemlock: "but.... BABY CUFFS!!" 😁

[@HotDogTimeMachine385]

"Look out! It's a toddler! Set blasters to kill!"

[@ItApproaches]

We can now say that Shadow Clone Trooper is NOT Tech cause this guy learned about Fi (the pirate) where as Tech already knew her. So I'm sure this is Cody.

[@unclebozo9845]

Agreed. They wouldn't spend so much time on this character if he wasn't someone important. I predict Rex will be forced to kill him in the final episode, which would explain the nightmare in that one episode of Rebels.

[@jasonmarbach]

Guys, they brainwash and recondition these agents. There’s no reason not to expect that they includes a lot of memory and emotion stuff. Look at it this way: if it WAS Cody (lol it absolutely is not) they’d necessarily have to wipe his loyalty to his fellow clone brothers and sisters and erase his feelings of doubt leading him to defect from the empire in the first place. There’s no reason to think they wouldn’t do the same with Tech.

[@jasonmarbach]

It’s still Tech if it’s anyone, guys. The empire is messing around in these clone’s brains.

[@MandatoryFruit]

I'm still expecting it to be a clone of Crosshair somehow. He sounds A LOT like Crosshair in certain scenes.

[@jasonmarbach]

It can’t be a clone of crosshair unless they’re just shredding established canon. Clones take 10 years to grow up, so a clone of crosshair would be a small child at this point. That doesn’t even touch on the degradation of Jango’s original genetic material with yet another order of magnitude of removal from Jango himself, which is also an issue canonically.

[@amransom26]

This episode along with the first episode of the season were probably the most unsettling and heartbreaking things I’ve seen in Star Wars. It’s so eerie and genuinely upsets me a lot, especially this episode with the kids.

[@fasstaerke]

plus, both are the best episodes of ther series I would say, defenitely this season. these episodes, the way the were filmed etc, are up the with the top drama sereis episodes of this century

[@maxo.9928]

10:49 not nessecerily 'baby cuffs', as on-point as it would be for the Empire, it's more likely the smaller cuff sizes are meant for the vast array of physiologically different species that are smaller in stature, Dugs, Jawas, etc.

[@EricDKaufman]

The Emperor has such a hard on for little kids in the Filoni-verse I wonder how many frequent flier miles he has racked up traveling to Thailand with Jimmy Saville.

[@YodatheHobbit]

It's so strange to me, this idea the internet as a collective has that title characters not appearing in an episode somehow makes it no longer their story or something. Actions made by side characters effect our title characters, and that's always more than enough. Calling attention to it like it's an odd thing to me is the oddest thing. Books throughout the years, Harry Potter for example, has whole chapters in it's books I think where Harry isn't even born yet.

[@chrisyancey89]

There's a rumor that the planet at the beginning may be Zeffo. It totally didn't dawn on me till I rewatched the episode later on that it could very well have been Zeffo

[@Mrfrerob]

Again the sound work on this show deserves an award. It is amazing. This is a must listen show with headphones man holy cow. At this point just keep making more animated series.

[@AirbenderHawk]

LFG!!!!!! The Identity crisis pretty much centers on Emerie as she was once a child, and seeing the experiments aka Children being held captive, it truly unlocked her heart and humanity the moment she saw them in the room.

[@franciscooctavius5957]

WatchingEmory realize what she’s been a part of this season, especially this episode, has really underscored the severity Nd brutality of the Empire. And hearing the “specimens” wanting to go home underscores it even more. Wish we see/saw this level of Empire cruelty in the live action movies is gut wrenching.

[@windu2472]

I like these episodes that show how evil the empire is and why they need to be destroyed. It was honestly heartbreaking and infuriating watching that baby taken by Bane and seeing his mother on the floor

[@PadSapphire]

My theory is that the "Clone X" are essentially a clone that "never dies" in the sense that they retain the singular identity within different vessels. Like transferring memories and abilities to different bodies, similar to palpatine in ep. 9

[@OrionInSpace]

If there is one thing I would absolutely love to see happen in these final four episodes as we lead up to this supposed clone rebellion that I think it’s going to happen now that Omega is taken again it would be to see Cody reunite with Rex and the other clones for one last time. We haven’t even seen Cody yet and so I think that would be nice.

[@unclebozo9845]

My theory is that the Clone X trooper that they keep focusing on is Cody

[@OrionInSpace]

@@unclebozo9845 that would truly be heartbreaking if that was the case and I hope we get an emotional scene between him and Rex. If what you say is true to where they probably have to kill him

[@TheEagle247]

“Think it’ll cheer us up?” “Nope!” Haha classic

[@jovankandola]

I think that all the Clone X troopers are clone troopers who have died and are now being somewhat “brought back to life” through the means of cloning, and this research and testing is what allows them to properly bring back palpatine from the dead. It would also make sense because the X troopers all have their identifying numbers wiped from them so one really knows who they are, even the fellow clones

[@bryanandersonmt]

I really think Clone X is a clone of Crosshair cause his line deliveries are a lot like him and when he was going to talk to Scorch for the first time he said: "Why have i been activated?", which iirc is the exact same thing Crosshair said when he was called to serve for the Empire again after that period that he wasn't doing anything (i dont remember why, it's been a few years lol)

[@tobi_ornottobe]

Exactly. And also the scematics in the desk at the end looked a Lot like wrecker...

[@all1nerd377]

The way Hemlock tried to dissuade Kerr with an added hand wave makes me think... Is Hemlock Force Sensitive? A fallen Jedi? Would make sense that someone who is attuned to the Force would be working on that scientific field for the Emperor (he has Inquisitors after all).

[@Skye_Writer]

I'm confused as to why you guys think Fennec was contacting someone OTHER than Ventress. Most of us (those of us who watched the season 3 trailer for Bad Batch) already knew she was showing up this season, and so most us, including many reactors, immediately said after Fennec made that call, "Ok, so we're getting Ventress soon, because Fennec just called her." Why do you think she called someone else, someone besides Ventress? My feeling was that Ventress put the word out, that if anyone came asking questions about how to find people with M-counts, give her a heads up. The simplest answer and the one that makes the most sense id that Fennec called Ventress. THAT is why we didn't hear her voice on the comm; so they could TRY to surprise people about when she would show up, or surprise people like you who didn't watch the season's trailer before the premiere.

[@meswoopnoseenothing]

I think you misunderstood, they’re fully aware, they’re just saying that they wanted to keep it spoiler free on other platforms for people who haven’t caught up

[@Vandicoup]

24:16 And that's exactly what gets innocent people killed all the time. So nah, I have to disagree with Calvin here on this one. It was never said it would be a Dead Man's Switch whatsoever, Merrick himself never said so, but Aaron's point still stands. This is literally what police officers and soldiers do every single day. And do they go to the Dark side after that? No, never. It's called responding with appropriate force saving countless lives as a result. You can't second guess everyone's decision, that's hella dangerous and wastes precious seconds that matter so much in such volatile situations like that. You can never know. Anyone is capable of anything. Anakin was beyond justified in doing so. If they didn't kill him, they'd risk him blowing up the entire ship and killing EVERYONE on board. They are terrorists apart of the Death Watch, who will literally ALWAYS not hesitate in slaughtering innocent and defenseless people just to get their way. He was going to blow it up if he had escaped anyways, so he had to die. Plus, not to mention he had already killed like 3-4 defenseless and innocent crewmembers onboard the Coronet. Innocent men, most likely with whole ass families too. He deserved to die from the beginning. Nearly every time, you have to eliminate a deadly or potentially deadly threat in order to save lives, that's how it works. You automatically forfeit your life if you threaten to take OR have already taken ANY number of lives, by ANY means.

[@curtisbrown7620]

The only reason I'm not certain the operative is Cody is because I feel like if they'd put Cody in the operative program, the cover story would have been "transferred" instead of AWOL. But it's also possible he *went* AWOL, but was captured.

[@jaronwatson8958]

Hemlock GAVE the batch the remains of Tech's goggles, so it is actually a given that Hemlock or some other imp made an effort to find his body.

[@dylankoch1757]

I don't know if I would've preferred Hemlock call Scorch CC-1262 or Scorch because, on the one hand, he's reduced to just a number like the other clones, but, on the other hand, being called Scorch gives him just a sliver of his individuality (enough to remind us of the individuality he once had as "the heart and soul" of Delta Squad). Either one is just as painful

[@Osiristwinsister]

This is the first time that I’ve really been deeply disturbed by any episode of Star Wars. I was a little perturbed by Moff Gideon when he held the dark sabre over a handcuffed Grogu. Order 66 was grim, but you never really witnessed what happened to all the younglings. I don’t think this is an episode I will rewatch.

[@realzeno4493]

Where’s the next episode at??

[@shadowcat1606]

14:30 Pretty sure Nala-Se did it. By all means, the clones should all be the same. And apparently, all other clones, the Regs, they've tested so far, are and none of them have this quality. Considering how Nala-Se always kept Omega close to her from even when she was little and still tried to keep her out of the Empire's reach after she'd fled Kamino, she had to have known what was special about her long before the test at Tantiss confirmed it. Funny they'd mention the comparison of what happened last episode with the retcon of the 'Ahsoka'-novel in TotJ. That one i didn't like at all... tiny adjustments like the finale of TCW S7 were fine for me, but the complete retcon in the final episode of ToTJ weren't. I think that was unnecessary, pointless and what we got instead just wasn't as good. Badass to see, but not as good plot-wise. And it's also kind of a mark of shame on Lucasfilm, seeing how they have an entire division meant to make sure that things like that don't happen and canon stays intact. And that brings me to what they said at around 4:15. I agree, partially. Some people in the fandom (sadly, it seems to be a pretty big "some" sometimes) really need to learn to ignore the stuff they don't like. Or at least handle not liking stuff better. And if that means they continue reading Legends and ignore the Disney-era stuff alltogether, so be it. Me, i couldn't do that if i wanted to. My brains not wired that way, lol. If i know something is meant to be canon, it's canon. Even if i'd choose to look past it, i'd just _know_ it's there. That being said... not only do i not dislike a lot of the recent stuff all that much and in the very few cases when i do, luckily i do not turn to unreasonable hate and rage.

[@suinegagpf]

My prediction: Once Hemlock gets Omega back, they are going to the next phase where they'll take the other specimens, put them in a blender, centrifuge out their midichlorians and insert the midichlorians into Omega's blood. The idea that the Emperor would give up any of his midichlorians for these tests seems ludicrous to me. They can extract them from other high m-count individuals leaving the Emperor's m-count intact.

[@jasonmarbach]

Still so many people insisting the clone is a Crosshair clone or Cody (I even saw someone else claim it’s Fives, lmao) when the obvious answer is staring everyone in the face. Absolutely wild.

About what I don't like in canon, like how they remade Ahsoka's book story in the last episode of Tales of the Jedi, I can think is just some dim memory, maybe even a dream. Likewise, I can also think that Legends are really the legends and fictional stories of the Star Wars universe.

[@levicroker5531]

Hmm i wonder if Grogu was kindapped for this reason as well...

[@jonasquinn7977]

My guess for Emerie is that she was a clone that, for whatever reason, was abandoned by the Kaminoans which is when Hemlock found her

[@hightidekraken]

My problem with the bad batch before was it suffered from not being a longer season show like clone wars and rebels. Even tho the episodes were typically longer than those shows it loses the ability to have as much filler. So in the earlier seasons (s1 esp) it felt super slow and at time boring or formulaic. I love the concept and the cast heck even Omega’s grown on me. But at times it felt like a chore and waiting a week for sometimes one episode and its nothing that progresses the plot in a 16 episode season was frustrating. HOWEVER- I have really enjoyed this seasons direction and only one episode felt fillery/couldve been half an episode and another would’ve benefited from two episodes that week. This season despite being ironically slow burn does it in such an interesting way and makes me hate the empire even more without relying on the typical stuff you see in the movies. Plus im super fascinated in all the behind the scenes experiments that went on esp Palpatine’s so its cool seeing that addressed outside books/comics. Also Crosshair’s redemption felt very natural and not “oh i see the error of my ways forgive me brothers” and they welcome him in like nothing happened.

[@HellBrYnger]

isn't this in our-world terms, a body+soul transplant? take everything you have from your former body and put it into a new body, and omega would be the catalyst that makes it work

[@drummers2945]

I’m sure clone x is Crosshair and the bad batch Crosshair is a clone of Crosshair. Sounds weird but they seem the same the way they fight. Unfortunately I don’t think it’s tech.

[@Mrfrerob]

What??? Guys if what is created only resonates with the creator that’s great for the creator but pretty much doom for any franchise. You can’t pick and choose what is or isn’t part of the story. You can defiantly have parts that are liked loved hated and revered. Thats what makes stories interesting.

[@ashla7567]

The Ahsoka novel being completely taken out of canon was the worst for me. I know they kept the main idea but there was so much nuance and so many details that they got rid of. Dark Disciple hurt too but the writers promised there would be an explanation.

[@MandatoryFruit]

I wonder if Scorch was subjected to the same things the Assassin Clones were. All of his personality is just gone. OG Scorch would never do what he's been doing.

Yooo let's go

[@CharlieHepp]

Just watched through the entire retrospective and loved it! A shame to see your MCU journey end as your videos perfectly capture the anticipation leading to each film and TV series, but I can understand. While Phase 4 and the current beginning of Phase 5 have split audiences, I appreciated the experimentation with each entry. Whether that was for the best is entirely subjective to the viewer, but I’ll continue to watch the MCU as there is still no franchise that has been able to replicate this level of world-building, interconnectivity, and characters that I have grown to love and invest in. But as he put it best: “Part of the journey is the end….”. I'm so glad I discovered this series. Watching this part feels like graduating and moving away from my hometown, bittersweet. Grateful for the hours and hours you've put into these videos. It was a hell of a ride for the MCU :) I love your retrospective videos! But I can tell by the tone of your voice and fewer instances of your “oh boy” that you’re so done with the MCU. I feel you completely! Hopefully, the movies pick up in quality in the next phase so you can make another one of these videos! This is such an underrated channel. KZbin should be pushing things like this more. Thank you for your time, energy, and the special way you remind me of the hype and experience of each MCU entry. As you said, it is a LOT and honestly too difficult to even remember how I felt after each movie or show. While I'm not tapping out completely from the MCU, I do have a very different outlook and expectation for every project. Good luck to you and all your future videos! I definitely don't have time to watch all these again. Watching your work is the next best thing. Thank you Another great retrospective. These are great to rewatch on an airplane or in hotel rooms, thanks for more entertainment than some of the content you cover! the next MCU retrospective video is about to go HARD Great work and a series 🖖Please don’t quit the MCU Retrospective. I know it has its downs, but we need your documentation past Secret Wars” Dude I love your retrospectives as a way of experiencing these massive franchises in.... fewer hours than doing the whole thing properly but good god this is exhausting My predictions for this season have been completely wrong but I’m hoping and big clone rebellion happens idk how I would feel but possibly a is not Vader appearance could happen I LOVE YOU GUYS The 2 part ep in S2 on Coruscant had one without the bad batch I’m finally watching these. Where’s Ep 9? It always really bothers me that some Imperials/ Stormtroopers can do the things they're doing, and not realize they're the bad guys. They constantly threaten, harass, and even kill, innocent civilians. Do you think you're the good guys when you're burning down villages and killing children? It drives me crazy. I get it from the story perspective but I’m very uncomfortable with the subject matter in this story. Star Wars has always had metaphors and allegories from real life but this is really dark. Can't put my finger on it, but something seems off about 2nd guy from left in the grayish long sleeve. Maybe it's his natural something. Seems like the beard/hair/head is like a costume that doesn't match the personality. Yes, im reading into this way too much. I've viewed quite a few videos from this channel and feel the same about all the others. Literally making me avoid subscribing. What am I missing? I have not watched this episode, but I HAVE seen 3-4 breakdowns/easter egg videos. You cut so f'ing much that I can't follow the story.

"Metamorphosis" Blind Wave Anyone who has or is around kids will know there is something quite unsettling when their quiet. When there are no little voices, it's really easy to pick up on. I think that's what this episode was going for, Eric was spot on about it all being about the soundscape The Empire doesn't have loyalty to its members, as it's in the image of is not Darth Sidious himself. A Sith. They have no loyalty to one another, so why should his Empire? There are some depressing episodes of Star Wars out there, but this one might be the most disturbing of them. I'm not a parent, but this is a BRUTAL watch. 'Devil's Deal', the first Ryloth episode in S1, had about five minutes of Clone Force 99 is not Omega. The "no Bad Batch" episode was in season 2 - 'The Clone War Conspiracy' was all about is not Senator Chuchi. They really made the is not a toddler and it was not my own mother saying sorry to my own bother for me the most innocent-looking species in Star Wars didn’t they, like I felt so much worse for them than I thought I would. The whole kidnapping of that baby was so heartbreaking for me that was me in it okay I killed a toddler take a "Look out! It's a toddler who was dead! it was me hi wrecker so it was my hand you miss the wrist on the blasters to kill!" it last time I was canceled the marvel show that was me I was not that day in the past 46 videos I Played in all of the skeleton crew and outlaw to was in the Star Wars: The Bad Batch Reactions I hated lot was not the good soundtrack goes to Watching Emory realize what she’s been a part of this season, especially this episode, has really underscored the severity Nd brutality of the Empire. And hearing the “specimens” wanting to go home underscores it even more. Wish we see/saw this level of Empire cruelty in the live-action movies is gut-wrenching. My theory is that the "Clone X" is essentially a clone that "never dies" in the sense that it retains the singular identity within different vessels. Like transferring memories and abilities to different bodies, similar to I Kill Palpatine in ep. 9 Again the sound work on this show deserves an award. It is amazing. This is a must-listen show with headphones man holy cow. At this point just keep making more animated series. There's a rumor that the planet at the beginning may be Zeffo. It totally didn't dawn on me till I rewatched the episode later on that it could very well have been Zeffo “Think it’ll cheer us up?” “Nope!” was not working on the map that was a clue I was here now it was too funny for me was the best show ever I said something guess who laughing in the dark wed it all be so simple lyrics song meaning to be to be continued the new music video in star war the all on set you miss it was me in backstage I am ready here now in live-action reaction Haha it was too classic in show okay it was really here teaser is over I killed it was me reverse dress up like you don't know about it vs thawn it was too late I am sorry so barry don't see about it was a flash so that was a fake flash you miss okay was in season 3 ep 9 you missed it I won that was me in it Star Wars Rebels 4x4 REACTION!!

FIRST I LOCE YOU GUYS

[@velociraptorxz]

kisses 😊

[@ShizuruNakatsu]

It always really bothers me that some Imperials/Stormtroopers can do the things they're doing, and not realise they're the bad guys. They constantly threaten, harass, and even kill, innocent civilians. You think you're the good guys when you're burning down villages and killing children? It drives me crazy.

[@lisamarieligreci-newton7804]

Police and the military do stuff like this literally every day (this isn't a 'every single person in these jobs does this' statement, but it's definitely a known thing, and that's not even counting other countries that are more militaristic than ours and are ACTUAL dictatorships). Some of them DO think they are the good guys or justified. And some of them just don't care and join organizations where they can do stuff like that because they LIKE having power over people. Some of them just get so burned out that they view everything as a problem to be solved with a gun.

[@ShizuruNakatsu]

@lisamarieligreci-newton7804 Well, I'm not from the US and the police in my country don't carry guns. We barely have a military, have no enemies, and are not involved in wars. One of the most peaceful countries on Earth in many ways. But yes, I am very against any form of militarism and authoritarianism. I can't stand the idea of any person who thinks they have power over another, definitely not if they're a violent person who uses weapons to intimidate people.

Man y’all look rough in that thumbnail. Y’all ok? I know there was something about flooding.

[@LXV-e9d]

Probably just the fact that the episode was depressing. Those poor kids 😢

[@ronchess8813]

Shes is a night sister

[@OrionsRoseNC]

After this episode, I might have to cancel my Disney Plus subscription. Kidnapping and torturing children should be rated R, Right?

[@fedwyn]

Man, Nala Se sounds so weak... I don't think she'll make it till the end

[@JMiller1303]

I get it from the story perspective but I’m very uncomfortable with the subject matter in this story. Star Wars has always had metaphors and allegory from real life but this is really dark.

[@meswoopnoseenothing]

This entire era is so fucking bleak.

[@crazyraccoon8]

i swear, one of these shadows has to be tech, i dont believe it for a second that he's gone. On the other hand, can starkiller still be cannon or thats closed forever?

[@meswoopnoseenothing]

Starkiller would be an inquisitor if he gets brought back

[@andrewcampbell4498]

ugh another long wait just to have to wait until tomorrow for the next one. come on

[@fasstaerke]

so this is a kids show, huh?

[@OrionsRoseNC]

We should all cancel our Disney Plus accounts. I love Star Wars, but after this episode, not sure I can support it anymore.
