This show seems geared to kids more so than rebels or clone wars.

I feel like maybe they just haven't built out the Star Wars universe that much. At least not in as interesting a way as those two shows. One or two episodes ago they were killing way more than I ever saw on rebels. Rebels had weapons almost always on stun and a wake of stormtroopers holding and shaking their heads.

How many episodes are we getting? Just seems like we're not making much progress towards anything noteworthy at the moment.

RIP in peace in 20 years Moochie.

The earlier episodes of Clone Wars were very much the same way, but it took it a long time to get up to the serious/carnage level of the series premiere of Bad Batch.

Omega remind anyone else of Cindel Towani?

Now she does

Thought it was a good episode. They're definitely building up whatever's going to happen to Wrecker. I knew right away that it was the two sisters from S7 of Clone Wars....fortunately they weren't as annoying in this episode.

Definitely feels like what we've been watching at this point is building up quite a bit so some big reveals in the next few episodes especially with:

1. Who hired Fennec Shan?
2. What's going to happen to Wrecker?
3. Who were the sisters working for?

There are so many shows I have to really think about where we are in the timeline and where other shows are. Bad batch happens before rebels and ahsoka is active in rebels. Sisters could be working with her. Where Rex will be and will talk about cutting out the chip

I think it was Bail Organa at the end in the hologram. Looked like his robes.

I've been assuming the Kaminoans hired Fennec.

Last time we saw them, they were discussing a need to recover at least one special clone for fresh genetic material. Next thing you know, Fennec is tracking them for a bounty.

The manner in which Rafa talks to the hologram about the clones + keeping it out of view was an effort to make us believe it was nefarious. Which immediately makes me skeptical it is.

Bail is a good guess, but why would he be on the lookout for clones? This can't be more than a few months since order 66. Kanan aka Caleb is still a teen, Rex and Ahsoka are in hiding. Didn't Ahsoka leave the sisters on bad terms, anyway? Or rather, they were pissed at her for not saying she was a (former) Jedi? Did they make up at the end of their arc?

Heck you may have just figured it out....I was thinking Bail as well. The two sisters don't know what Rex looks like but if it's Bail they've definitely heard of positive clone troopers.....so all they know is that these clone troopers are different and are letting Bail know not knowing if they're Rex or not (don't think they said their names in this episode).

For starters, we don't really know the timeline here. It might be 6 months past Order 66 at this point. If Bail Organa is already starting a passive rebellion, the first thing you would need to know would be as much information as possible as you could about how everything went down. Bail would know more than most because he's friendly with the Jedi - he knows the clones turned on them and killed 99% of them, but like you said, he also knows some clones, so he would probably be trying to figure out if it was all of the clones or just a select number. The clones fought for the Republic, now the Empire, and he's a senator of the Republic turned Empire. is their loyalty now strictly to Palpatine or will they still take orders from other authoritative figures?

It really makes you think if the Empire hadn't been so cheap and stopped using clones, the Rebellion might never have gotten off the ground. Elite cloned soldiers seem like they would have mopped the floor with the Rebellion as compared to conscripts.

Yeah, that nonsense about her being too weak was a distraction. Dumb alien was wrong!

Interesting that the sisters' astromech was Ashoka's R7.

had forgotten what happened to him so I read this summary...forgot that he was destroyed and apparently repaired by Ahsoka or Rex or some other person.

Also pretty much guarantees they're working for the good guys and that it was Bail they were talking to

This week's episode is fantastic. Advanced the story, find out who the cloaked figure was, and some good action

Yeah, really solid episode.

The scrapyard planet is Bracca, the same one from the beginning of the Jedi - Fallen Order game.

Probably one of my favorites, so far

Agreed. My guess is we're finally going to get back to seeing the empire again in the next episode.

Good ep - they made Wrecker legit scary.

That was good. Some beautiful animation, too.

Great episode. Some genuine drama and suspense.

Thinking about how they handled Wrecker's chip and they really did it well. The chips needed to be addressed, and they found a way to do it with some urgency without making it a predictable and kinda tired climactic event of the series. It would have been lame if we got basically a repeat of Rex's chip event played out again.

I was really expecting them to have Omega shoot Wrecker.didn't know if doing so would've resulted in them killing him off or not but be a huge turning point for her and the new war against the empire.

Still did it extremely well

Really cool episode. Rex is so beloved at this point that I sort of hold my breath when he shows up in another incarnation, but they've got his character nailed. Was great to see Wrecker lose it and see how incredibly strong he is out of control. And no gimmicky "Omega outsmarts him" plot turn. I wonder if they'll be able to subdue Cross hair and get his out?

Do y'all ever sit back and think of how this show has the same voice actor for nearly every single main character? This is like a cartoon Eddie Murphy movie.

When it premiered there were a lot of people online talking about the need for Baker to win an Emmy. He's so great.

Another great episode this week. Think it's really starting to hit its stride narratively

Loved seeing the return of Cad Bane, and the shootout was nails

It would be an interesting twist if they got Cross Hair's out, and he still chose to stay with the empire.
