So we all think Hunter totally stowed away on the assassin's ship, right?

(Conjecture about next episode)

Two great episodes with only 5 left to go…what I'm trying to figure out is there's a clip from the trailer for this last season we haven't seen yet and at this point have no idea where it'll fit….

It's a scene with Wrecker, Hunter, and Wanda Sykes pirate lady trying to get something off of a train type deal in a desert mountain area….so that'll be interesting to see where that fits in and how…

But overall this is lining up with that tweet about this second half being dark as hell….

Care to take any guesses on who we THINK will be dead by the end of this show (not who we WANT to be dead….looking at you C@lAg)

Omega: 0% chance
Crosshair: 99% chance
Hunter: 70% chance
Wrecker: 25% chance
Dr. Hemrik: 50% chance
Dr. Emerie: 15% chance
Batcher: 80% chance
Nala Se: 99% chance
Kid m-counts: 1/4 bite the dust likely Jax or blue girl that had no lines
Clone assassin: 100% chance
Wanda Sykes pirate: 0% chance
Syd (if she even shows): 75% chance

Edit: forgot about Wanda Sykes character and Syd (if she makes an appearance)

Omega: 0% chance
Crosshair: 20% chance
Hunter: 99% chance
Wrecker: 40% chance
Dr. Hemrik: 99% chance
Dr. Emerie: 5% chance
Batcher: 1% chance
Nala Se: 90% chance
Kid m-counts: all survive
Clone assassin: 100% chance

Season ends with Hunter sacrificing himself so an atoned Crosshair (and maybe wrecker?) can take Omega and the m-count kids into hiding for the rest of the war.

Hemlock dies, but the season ends with Moff Gideon arriving to pick up the pieces.

This is like 18 or 19 BBY? Gideon would be in his early 30s probably working ISB and headed toward the purge of mandalore, not worried about clones.

Just four episodes left until BB wraps up

April 10 Juggernaut
April 17 Into the Breach
April 24 Flash Strike
May 1 The Cavalry Has Arrived

Expecting/hoping that final episode is them finding Tantiss, sending out the call to allies ala TROS and Rex and Cody and all the rest showing up to help. We know Rex, Wolffe and Gregor survive to the Rebels era, but what about all the rest?

Let's goooooooooo!



Also…I'm guessing this weeks episode is a little of a filler episode as it's the one from the original season 3 trailer I'd mentioned with pirate chick….but we'll see hope I'm wrong….

Just reading the episode titles, I kind of hope Into the Breach, Flash Strike, and The Cavalry Has Arrived is a 3 episode arc with Flash Strike dealing with the strike at Tantiss that carries over into the finale but maybe the bad batch might not show up until the finale for that. It would be very familiar to how episodes were done in TCW.

The quote from the trailer "if we all go in, we're not all making it out" kind of foreshadows that not all of the batch and/or other clones aren't going to make it to the end. Of the members left from clone force 99, I can't see them offing all of them but with how much growth/emphasis they gave to Omega and Crosshair, I think Crosshair dying saving Omega before the end makes the most narrative sense as a sort of last redemptive act. Hunter, Echo, and Wrecker I don't know but Echo not showing up in Rebels gives the impression that he is going to bite the dust. I wouldn't be surprised if Hunter makes a sort of man on fire run to get Hemlock though.

Fun episode. Reminded me of the 2nd to last episode of Mando Season 2 with Bill Burr. Thought they would mix in some Waylon Jennings from dukes of Hazzard when wrecker made the jump.

Definitely got the S2E7 vibes from Mando in this but yeah those things were way bigger than what we saw in the Mando show….those were the same prison transport things we saw in Rogue One when they broke out Jin Urso…

Regardless it was another great episode and it'll be interesting to see what happens with admiral rampart now back in the mix…

I feel that this term is vastly overused online, but after watching this trailer:






LETS
****ING
GO

I'll admit that I'd completely forgotten who the imperial dude was.

Sort of a flat episode imo.

EDIT - I was talking about Juggernaut. Sorry, I watched it later in the week forgetting how close we were to another episode. Which I thought was better.

Omega's part was more interesting, seeing her "become" the Hunter role - planning an op, doing the recon, assembling a team.

The other part could have been 2 minutes. Not much suspense in what you know is absolutely going to happen. VA Rampart was funny, and the way they hooked onto the other ship was cool, but otherwise it was mostly just a trailer for whatever is next.

2nd to last episode comes out at 2 AM- Flashstrike!

Yeah, I was thinking Omega would just get out and do something in this one...oh well

This finale better be unreal. The last 2 episodes could have been 20 minutes each

If the pillow beast is some deux ex machina I will be sad.

you do not show a Zillo Beast that has been absent for 2 seasons without it being a 100% certainty that said Zillow Beast is going to wreck shop in the finale.

I know it, and that sucks. I sure hope they end the series with an announcement of a new show all about the Clone Resistance, because that's what I thought I was going to be seeing these last few episodes.

Yeah, shouldn't priority #1 be getting word to Rex?

Oh that's right, they still don't know where the base actually is...

Agree that the last two episodes could have been combined into a single good episode. And yeah, they've pretty much shown all their cards for the finale now. I wonder if they're going to have the stones to make the escape actually cost something meaningful though.

So far this season they've been building things up really well but I agree with other posters the last 2 episodes really could've been combined into one….and there's a lot of plot lines to tie up as well:

1. Crosshairs hand
2. Mysterious clone trooper
3. Admiral Rampart getting captured
4. Omega + kids escaping
5. Nala Se showing back up?
6. Tantis base itself…Will it be destroyed or not?
7. Does the empire succeed in cloning Palps on Tantis or not?

And that's just off the top of my head….I REALLY hope the last episode is a lot longer….

Timed my watch of the series just in time for the finale. Excited for it.

I don't get the irrational hate of omega by some (or one). I usually hate these types of characters because they stupidity typically leads to plot points (young dumb character does something stupid and it results in the plot for that episode) but I haven't minded omega, almost at all. She is sometimes naive but not outright dumb.

Although I agree that the last couple episodes have been a little lackluster, I read that the last episode is 70 minutes? Is that official? At that length, we basically have three episodes left. Hopefully that is enough to answer all the questions.
Why was omega created? Commander Cody. The identity of the clone assassin. Echo and Emerie's plan. Omega's plan. Wolffe and Rex winding up together. Fate of Rampart & Hemlock (will we see them in another series or dead?) Allotted time for character death.

I've seen 25 minutes and 70 minutes. If it's only 25 minutes, I hope Palpatine just rolls up and kills them all. The last 2 episodes have been GoT season 8 level underwhelming for being so close to the end of a great series

The Gang Releases a Zillobeast but it's Really an Evil Palp Clone and it Eats Them All

Haven't there already been multiple clone assassins? And we've seen at least one unmasked? I don't think they have identities.

Does hemlock get zillow-ed or does crosshair execute him?

Seeing rumors that this last episode will be close to the initial episodes runntime….which makes sense seeing how seasons 1 and 2 were 16 episodes and this is only 15 episodes.

here's to Omega trying to Mary Sue using the force to control the Zillo Beast, only for her to screw it up since she has had NO TRAINING and it turns around and eats her.

---

I don't think she even knows what the force is.

I'm thinking one from the batch is not to make it and I think it's crosshair even though they telegraphed that heavily in "Flash Strike" and it would be emotionally felt I'm not sure it would have the same type of impact as if say Hunter died. It would be a fitting end to his arc that started in season 1 and could somewhat mirror Fives' death in TCW. About the rest, my predictions:

-Clone Trooper is either someone we know or a distraction for viewers. I'm hoping for the latter, not everyone we've seen needs to come back imo.
-I think Crosshair is the one who frees Rampart noting it's something Omega would do.
-Echo and Emerie save the kids but Zillo Beast is going to be freed somehow. Perhaps disastrous consequences leading to an unintentional death. Could see the kids going with whoever makes it to the end and disappearing/retiring since the Empire will not stop looking for them.
-Nala Se and Emerie's stories could be tied together with them "doing what they can" to aid in the batches escape. Nala Se is the key to understanding the cloning tech working that Hemlock needs for Palpatine. If Emerie lives it's to earn redemption.
-Hoping Tantiss is destroyed taking Hemlock with it. I could also see Echo dying to make sure the base is destroyed.
-Eh, maybe success on cloning right before destruction but the Empire doesn't find out and ends up leading to the whole Mandalorian and Grogu story.
