Warning: SPOILERS for Star Wars: The Dangerous Batch Season 2’s remaining episode, “Plan 99,” are forward!
Though The Mandalorian’s newest episode is getting a whole lot of consideration for briefly that includes Star Wars Rebels’ Zeb and upping the ante for Din Djarin and Bo-Katan Kryze in main methods, this week additionally marked Star Wars: The Dangerous Batch’s Season 2 finale. Sadly for Clone Power 99, this finale, a.ok.a. “Plan 99,” was arguably extra tragic than how Season 1 ended, as Omega was taken captive by the Empire, and Hunter, Wrecker and Echo don’t know the place to start out in search of her. However earlier than this chapter of The Dangerous Batch reached its conclusion, the Star Wars present delivered yet one more twist tied to Jango Fett: Omega isn’t the one feminine clone of the late bounty hunter.
Anybody aware of the Star Wars franchise is aware of that Jango Fett was the genetic template for the clone military the Republic used to fight the Separatists through the aptly-named Clone Wars, they usually continued to be of service within the early years of the Empire, though the center of The Dangerous Batch Season 2 confirmed how the changeover from clone troopers to stormtroopers occurred. Till “Plan 99,” Michelle Ang’s Omega was believed to be Jango’s solely feminine clone, however now we all know she’s joined by Imperial scientist Emerie Karr, voiced by Keisha Fortress-Hughes. This revelation got here after Omega was dropped at the Superior Science Division’s (ASD) Weyland facility on Mount Tantiss.
After Omega noticed an unconscious Crosshair, Emerie approached her and defined that she’d tried to warn him what would occur if he didn’t cooperate together with her superior, Jimmi Simpson’s Dr. Royce Hemlock. When Omega demanded to talk to Nala Se, who took care of the woman when she was rising up on Kamino, Emerie famous it was ironic that Omega trusted the Kaminoan greater than her. Omega understandably identified she didn’t know Emerie, to which the latter responded:
No? You may know me higher than you assume. We’re sisters, Omega.
Emerie Karr was launched in “Metamorphosis” because the supervisor for Crosshair’s remedy on the Weyland facility after he was taken in for killing Lieutenant Nolan on Barton IV. Though Emerie was sympathetic to some extent, she made it clear to Crosshair that he’d must hearken to her in an effort to survive, however he’s outgrown his “good troopers observe orders” section. Sadly, “Plan 99” ends earlier than Emerie can elaborate on her declare of being Omega’s older “sister,” so we’re left to ponder her origins and maybe marvel if she’s even telling the reality. Nonetheless, assuming she is on the up and up, then it stands to cause Emerie’s aged on the identical accelerated charge the clone troopers did, versus Omega and Boba Fett, each of whom age usually.
As of this writing, there’s been no phrase on if Star Wars: The Dangerous Batch Season 3 will occur, however I’m crossing my fingers it does, and never simply to make clear Emerie Karr. “Plan 99” additionally noticed Tech sacrificing his life in order that his cohorts wouldn’t be captured by the Empire. That mentioned, though Hemlock later offered Tech’s broken goggles to Hunter on Ord Mantell, we by no means really noticed a physique, so there’s nonetheless an opportunity he someway may have survived that fall. Lucasfilm, please don’t depart Star Wars followers hanging on both of those twists!
The primary two seasons of Star Wars: The Dangerous Batch can now be streamed with a Disney+ subscription, which you may as well use to observe the Star Wars films so as. When you’re trying to take pleasure in extra unique, small display screen Star Wars content material, there are nonetheless three episodes left in The Mandalorian Season 3 left to reach, and the franchise’s upcoming TV reveals embody Ahsoka, Skeleton Crew and The Acolyte.
