Spoilers Bad Batch Season 3 - February 21st

Isn't arguing about dumb things kind of what the internet is made for? And I don't really see it as dumb, since from the first time I heard saw his name I had assumed it was purposefully meant as a reference to the animal, though I was never sure why.
 
The species from last week's episode as first depicted in live action in Solo.

OK, well i certainly didn't expect to see Rampart ever again, much less have him be the key to finding Weyland (or the key to the key, as it turns out is always the way with side-quests!)

Not a lot to say about the episode itself; a solid action focused story with a fun set piece and some enjoyably ridiculous monster truck chase sequence complete with drifting, impossible jumps, and a game of chicken! Kind of weird seeing a squad of stormtroopers being half-way competent for a change, having them clear the turrets before breaching. Also I think this is the first time that i can recall ever seeing anti-projectile point-defence in Star Wars!

Only three episodes left, so I'm rather curious to see how this all resolves. I mean obviously they're going to rally Rex's group, raid Tantiss and stage a mass clone uprising/break-out . . . but it's still unclear where everyone will be when the dust settles.
 
Loved how the Turbo Tank Juggernaut prison vehicle rescue echoed Jyn's rescue from a very similar vehicle in Rogue One.

I thought the closeable barriers on the bridge were a very clever design, but then they had the tank smashing through the barriers effortlessly, which made the barriers seem kind of pointless. (They must be made of the same stuff as Stormtrooper armor.)
 
Maybe they were too arrogant to think their own tanks would be hijacked and those barriers would be stopping inferior vehicles? :shrug:

Maybe. But I wish the animators had at least made it seem like the barriers offered some resistance.
 
Ah, how the mighty have fallen. And yet, the arrogance remains strong in this one. I likewise didn't expect to see Rampart again but I imagine he'll be dead by the end of this season, just a question of by whose hand.

I'm not surprised that no one actually knows the coordinates of Tantiss. Considering the extreme sensitivity of its mission, the Emperor's desire to keep it hidden as best as possible is absolute paramount. I'm curious about the actual mechanism of getting there as Rampart hinted at.

Crazy there's only three episodes left. I really hope the final episode is a double because there still feels like there is far too much ground left to cover to properly conclude this series and settle where everyone will be at.
 
Rampart showing back up was definitely unexpected.
It's always nice to see Phee, at least this time she played a little bit bigger role than her last appearance.
The whole sequence on the prison planet, with the Batch breaking out Rampart was pretty fun.
I'm curious why the put Omega in with the kids this time, but left her by herself last time.
I thought maybe when Hemlock was taking Omega into the fault, we were going to finally find out what was locked up in that other part of it, but I guess they're probably saving that for a big reveal in the finale.

Because before she was just a hostage to keep Nala Se working. She had nothing to do with the actual project, she was just a side thing because they needed Kaminoan know how. Now she's as critical (if not even more so) to the project as the Force sensitive kids.
