Star Wars: The Bad Batch – The Solitary Clone
- Title: Star Wars: The Bad Batch – The Solitary Clone
- IMDb: link
Feeling more like an episode of The Clone Wars than The Bad Batch, we’re given an episode to catch-up on Crosshair (Dee Bradley Baker) who is sent on a mission with Cody (Baker) and other Clones for the Empire needing to squash a Separtist uprising on Desix. Along with offering a check-in with the black sheep of the Bad Batch, the episode also offers an example of how the Empire put the Clones to work after taking power and how similar their missions were… with a few key differences. It’s a fine episode that just feels out of place as the season is still trying to setting the status quo for characters not even referred to here. The episode ends with Cody apparently deserting after being unable to execute an order, but the more effective outcome would have the Empire killing him offering another lesson to Crosshair of their brutality.

Peripheral – What About Bob? / Fuck You and Eat Shit
Two more episodes don’t do much of anything in regards to the investigation of what happened to Aelita West (Charlotte Riley), but we do get more the convenient here than gone medical effects on Flynne (Chloë Grace Moretz), a short confrontation between Flynne and Cherise (T’Nia Miller), and the introduction of yet more characters in another hired killer (Ned Dennehy) in the present and a pair of investigators (Alexandra Billings and Anjli Mohindra) in the future. Because both episodes are so geared to adding more to the story, unfortunately we don’t get much movement on existing stories, although we get some flashbacks including one that shows the injuries to Conner (Eli Goree) were caused by one of the experiments from the future (which you would expect to have some sort of payoff).

Star Wars: The Bad Batch – Spoils of War / Ruins of War
Star Wars: The Bad Batch returns for its Second Season with the Empire’s power growing and a dangerous but lucrative opportunity for the crew offered. Looking for a big score, for either retirement or help with the Rebellion (the Clones have differing opinions on their next course of action), the team accepts a risky mission stealing from the Empire who are cleaning out Count Dooku‘s vaults. Even a single cargo container could be the Bad Batch’s biggest score. However, things don’t go quite according to plan. Both the first two episodes focus on the heist, where the team gets separated, and then bringing the group back together (albeit without the big score they hoped for).
