I mean I don’t blame Crosshair on his part since we see how Crosshair’s new friend die because stupid Nolan acted so high and mighty thinking he’s expandable, which cause Crosshair to realize that the empire is not what it seems.
Though, to be fair, I think Crosshair had some cruel karma coming for him after everything he's done for the Empire, like executing his own squad and civilians and other evil shit. At least he had something coming for him in my opinion.
Crosshair does have a good point. Hunter kinda ignored Crosshair’s message. Tech on the other hand was more than willing to save Crosshair from the empire and if he was still alive he’d try again.
It seems like Crosshair had a special bond with everyone besides Hunter pre Order 66. He and Echo joked around in this episode, Wrecker competed with him for kills in the Clone Wars, and he was probably the only one who would listen to Tech rambling because he was the quiet one. And Omega saw the good in him from day one, even when he was an asshole without the chip. In fact, Hunter was the only one hesitant to rescue him in Season 2. Everyone besides Hunter would’ve gone after Crosshair again
@@othervids3726 Hunter is a soldier like all of them. He already gave Crosshair a choice since Crosshair kept whining about never being given a choice, he didn't take it, so Hunter had every right to give up on him and move on with the few allies they've got. They're not even in a war with the Jedi backing them up, they are all alone against the empire, there's no time for risking your neck for someone who already picked the opposite side.
@@skar8009 the thing is, I’m pretty sure the chip’s programming permanently merged with Crosshair’s brain after he got burned on Bracca and after he removed it. This is unlike other clones whose chips eventually wore off and they woke up to what was happening. The only way to overcome it was on his own, so I honestly don’t think he had much of a choice mentally when he rejected the BB the first time. Mayday was his wake up call and in this episode, everyone besides Hunter already accepted that he changed for the better this time around.
@@othervids3726 I don't know about the chip thing. Crosshair had always been the anti-hero type of clone that you'd eventually expect to join the empire willingly, from his harsh view on regular clones to his beef with Rex. I'm pretty sure he consciously rejected the batch at the end of Season 1 because he still felt "betrayed" by them. He wasn't ready to leave the empire (like how Vader wasn't ready to change sides despite Obi-Wan's and Ahsoka's efforts), but because it took him so long to realize the empire wasn't trying to make the galaxy better, they lost Tech and Omega ended up kidnapped. It's true that Hunter has a slice of cake for those events but none of them would've happened if Crosshair had accepted the offer to rejoin the batch in the first place.
Yes and no. Tech would’ve been fine if not for Saw Gerrera. But yeah, had they not tried to track Hemlock, Tech would still be alive and Omega wouldn’t have been captured
@@foodbugYeah he's the reason the Imperials even noticed there were infiltrators. Had he not been there, the Imperial wouldn't have known the bad batch was even there
“You let Gerrera blow up the Summit. You let Tech execute Plan 99. You let Omega be taken to Tantiss. We all went what we did because you failed. Your angry because she escaped with my help. Not yours.”
Crosshair: I killed an imperial officer. So yes I did betrayed them, after they betrayed me. Me: That’s Crosshair’s way of saying that he found a true friend, Mayday, the imperial officer refused to save him and then he shot him.
I'm not sure if Tech's death can be pinned on Hunter; at least not entirely. The plan would of gone smoothly if that dumbass Saw hadn't butchered things up.
@@TimberlakeTigerGirl I hold Saw solely responsible for screwing things up and still didn't accomplished anything. So great job Gerrara, thanks for nothing.
Crosshair made a genuine mistake when he joined the Empire ranks. I don't blame him. It happens. Kallus did the same thing before he realised just where the Empire's moral compass led to. Crosshair just isn't getting credit where it's due.
I keep thinking about this. If the Empire weren't cartoonishly evil to the clones, chances are they'd have a competent fighting force they could use until they were phazed out. They could've had most of them following orders if they cared for them *a bit*
@@hervymarquezgarcia1079 or could be these non clone officers were all up on their high horses from whatever got them that position in the first place, probably one who hasn't seen the clones in action or war. Besides the Jedi cared for the Clones, and Anakin now Darth Vader still has his clones suprisingly or whats left of them, slowly being depleted in due time.
@@welderscript9329Thrawn in Legends did retain Clones for his forces. He, unlike many Imperial officers, did respect the Clones as warriors and as individuals to a degree.
Just look at the American/British army going into any world war. Many of those leaders were men with a sliver spoon in their mouth, and not all of them were good leaders. The Empire is the same; many officers became such because of political agendas, not because they were necessarily skilled leaders. That and selfishness was actively encouraged
Crosshair was right here he gave them a message to warn them especially when he held at the worst facility in the empire. This is after hearing his old crew was in his trouble and they disregarded it and it cost them losing 2 of their own
@@PsYChOtlC_ShArK No I do not believe It was a filler they still need to find the location of the base and plus there was still some tension between Hunter and Crosshair tthat needs to be sorted out
0:34 When you sneak into your parents' bedroom before midnight to get your phone so you can message your friend to tell him happy birthday but he leaves you on read and doesn't respond
Ignoring Crosshair Warning Message only just making worst when Tech died. I don't blame Crosshair because he tried everything to warn his Team and Omega
Why do I get the feeling that cracking ice and snow in the background is meant to be symbolic in and for this scene? And PLEASE, nobody say that what's happening is them "breaking the ice" or anything like that.
@@jr1212-es9bp The inhibtor chips and their function, Nala Se's secret lab on Kamino, being there when the Bad batch were given their enhancements, and having ulterior motives when she first approached them on Kamino just to name a few.
@@kibaunoTech said himself they already knew about the chips before hand. Not telling them about order 66? How was she supposed to know what it was for. Plus why is the secret lab a bad thing?! They knew they were genetically altered, but who knew it was in a lab!! 😲 Altereriery motives when approaching them? Like what motive, she literally wanted friends and when Kamino was getting dangerous she asked Hunter to take her.
Crosshair really cares for Omega because he calls her by her name not the kid. Hunter and Crosshair needed to have it out a long time ago!! It was unfinished business that needed to be finished!! 😎👍
Because of how early the 'Bad Batch' is set in the Empire's reign, I worry that this series isn't going to end well for any of Clone Force-99. This story has happened even before Cal Kestis in 'Jedi: Fallen Order'. Hope I'm wrong & they get away 🥺...
Because Lieutenant Nolan refused to save Mayday and let him die and said that “He is expendable” (along with Crosshair and the other clones) and Crosshair realized that was the final straw and Nolan ends up fragged by Crosshair himself.
This is one of those moments where i hate Hunter. It's like the 3rd time that he screws Crosshair over and he has the balls to criticise him? First he doesn't rescue him when the chip kicks in Second he ignores his warning when it was valid Third he dares to pretend that he did nothing wrong??? Hunter is a bad leader and a bad brother.
