Bad Batch S2 Ep12

Hey everyone, hope this past week as treated you well,

Well another double Wednesday for us! Last week's BB episode sat really good for me and I was super hyped coming into this week. It has to be said though, this episode topped last week for me. Awesome to see Crosshair again and what he is up to. I think this episode really just focused right in on that idea of clones being expendable to others, which was awesome.

The new Lieutenant guy was such a hateable character, like the guy literally looked like a Nazi with his blonde hair and blue eyes! It was also really cool (well more sad) to see how Commander Mayday and his troops all died trying to protect just armour and resources for the new stormtroopers. Really symbolises how much more the Empire cared about the incoming stormtroopers over the clones.

Another cool detail I really liked was those bird looking things. For me they resembled the eagles we commonly see soaring through the sky. And as we all know (hopefully!) eagles are a symbol for freedom. Which was a foreshadowing of Crosshair's eventual break free of his programing to kill the Lieutenant (hopefully not too much of a stretch). During this episode I was just on the edge of my seat waiting for Crosshair to kill the w*nker, and when he finally did I was celebrating with both arms in the air.

Overall I really epic episode that probably used the nostalgia aspect of TCW to its advantage really well. With Crosshair at Tantiss now it will be interesting to see what happens to him. I do have a strong feeling the Bad Batch will go to save him. Probably after they find Cody who is able to tell them that Crosshair was transferred there.

Hope you all enjoyed this episode as much as I did and can't wait to see your thoughts in the comments!
