The Bad Batch S3 Episodes 6 & 7 | NYSQ What's Next

Your Fellow Nerds are back after having watched the latest installment of Star Wars The Bad Batch on Disney+ and we can't wait to break it down, review it, and of course ask WHAT'S NEXT.


This week we had two action packed episodes “Infiltration” and “Extraction” that at times felt like some of the best episodes of episodes of The Clone Wars.  The Bad Batch this season has been utilizing far more serialized storytelling which allows several of the storylines that have been running in parallel to suddenly converge synergistically or collide explosively.

This action-packed two-parter is one such inflection point. Rex’s team has captured a Clone X assassin who infiltrated a secret meeting between Senator Chuchi and Singh. But in the process, they discover that Omega is in danger. Hence, the A story: The Bad Batch trying to find their way in the galaxy and protect Omega, intersects with the B story: how all the clones are under threat from the Empire and what will happen to them once that Empire considers them completely obsolete. 

Our characters learn a lot in these two episodes: chiefly that Hemlock tried to make Crosshair a Clone X assassin and failed, and that Omega is on Hemlock’s target list.

Are we as brainwashed as Hemlock's clone assassins?  Were these episodes as good as we thought they were?  Should they just hurry up and give Crosshair his own series already?  Give this video a watch and comment your thoughts down below.
