Star Wars: The Bad Batch

- -Rex?

Thanks.

We need to get moving before their reinforcements get here.

Is there another way off this spire?

There's always another way.

Our leech vessel is docked about ten levels down.

Doesn't have a hyperdrive though. We won't get far.

No, but we can use it to contact Echo.

These are clones. They're not insurgents.

They are both.

I neutralized most of their rogue cell,

but the rest are trapped inside with the target.

What squadron are you with?

That's classified.

Want to tell me why this spire is burning

when our primary objective is to retrieve the target unharmed?

The girl is alive.

I'm now in charge of this operation. You answer to me. Is that clear?

Hilo, set blasters to stun and move in.

We're moving in.

Commander, you need to see this.

They're escaping through the middle of the spire.

We'll take team one and infiltrate this rock from the platform below.

Set charges and seal this passage. We'll pin them inside.

Team two, hold your position and stay alert.

Sir, the operative has gone after the target. Should I pursue?

Negative. Proceed with the plan. Seal off that access point.

Yes, sir.

Head inside and box them in.

The ship's docked just down this corridor.

Stop.

What is it?

They're coming.

I'll handle it.

We need to go.

We're waitin' on you.

- -Get down. Off!

Don't worry. She only bites half of the time.

Great.

Prepare to launch.

Remora-one, we've been compromised. Heading to marker 025 for an extraction.

Repeat. Marker 025.

We're going down. Strap in!

Pinpoint the crash site.

-Yes, sir. -

I said to use stun blasts only.

You've jeopardized this mission.

I prevented the target's escape.

By shooting down her ship?

Our orders are to retrieve the girl alive and unharmed.

Their vessel crashed in the upper jungle region.

Get the shuttles in the air.

This isn't over.

- -

- -Whoa!

You good?

Uh-huh.

Got your crossbow?

Yep.

Sure you can carry those supplies?

Yes.

Stay close. It's easy to get lost in this terrain.

You're as bad as Hunter.

Oh, I'm much worse.

Echo should meet us at the extraction point.

We'll have to continue on foot.

How far?

Five klicks north.

We've got attack shuttles inbound.

This way.

What?

I've seen how you are with the kid.

Hmm? Your point?

Well… …you're different than you were on Ryloth.

So what changed?

Loyalty meant something to me.

But with the Empire, it didn't go both ways.

I realized how disposable I was.

You're not the only one.

There's no sign of the insurgents.

Get back to the shuttle and monitor comm channels.

They couldn't have gotten far.

We have a problem. The operative's gone rogue.

I'll deal with him later.

I hear it too.

We have to knock through their line to reach the extraction point.

We've got these.

Stick by my side, and stay down.
