Hey everyone! Here it is - my reaction to Bad Batch, season 3 episode 8! Oh wow!!! Who knew we were getting a Fennec adventure in this one! Makes sense that we'd need to get in touch with someone who had lots of underground info and intel....but shoot, it's everyone for themselves out here in the bounty hunting world, and I fear Fennec just sold them out!! It was quite an icky swampy adventure along the way though! And can we all agree that Omega and Crosshair meditating is the most wholesome, peaceful, and healing thing ever?! Great ep! Enjoy! ~ MH

Right, they know m-count but that don't *know* it! LOL was that Greedo? I agree, she's probably one of the more stable ones, but still. Ah ok, good call on the mines. Yeah, Crosshair's not an easy one to convince, but I love that he considers it because it came from Omega. Oooohhhhh ok so that's what she was doing! I thought she was selling them out. Well now I'm gonna be trying to take some guesses!!!!

Ohhh did the thumbnail spoil it? I don't think I saw it before I played the ep, I guess that's a good thing! Hunter was smart to delegate to Omega for sure! Fennec's bar looked pretty wild right!!! Good point, she does have some standards but at the end of the day, once the job is done, is everyone for themselves. No kidding about the showrunner!!!! Wow! I'm glad they're addressing issues like this. It makes total sense with everything he's been through. Space Florida, OMG!!! Hahahahaha!!! Yeah he was slippery alright, they definitely needed a crew for that! Crosshair definitely has a lot of feelings underneath his stony exterior, and the meditation scene was just so good. It won't happen overnight for sure, but he's taking steps! Ohhh ok, so it wasn't exactly a double cross, hmmm!!! I can't wait to see who the contact is!!

I see the Disney thumbnail kind of spoiled who was going to appear in this episode, I hope they don't do it for the next one for the reveal of the contact. Love Hunter telling Omega to ask Crosshair about getting his hand fixed. Crosshair won't listen to him, but he knows the bond is strong with Omega and Crosshair so can get through to him that way. Great leadership shown by Hunter there. Fennec's bar looks fun, have a drink, get shot and have a bottle smashed on your head! :D Yeah I agree with your thoughts that Fennec does have a code, which she later mentions (and is a lot like Boba Fett, hence the link up between the two later), and while you are on the job with her, she'll have your back. However don't expect her to have any morality about whether or not she'd hand in Omega to the Empire if given that job. Perhaps, like Boba, she softens as she ages, but she isn't there yet. Yeah Crosshair's hand issues are psychosomatic. His hand can't stop shaking as he is still traumatised by his time with the imps, especially with his confinement on Tantiss. He needs to heal, and that is only done with self-reflection and time, something he doesn't have either of just now. The main showrunner of Bad Batch, Jennifer Corbett, served in the military so knows all about these issues, and I love that they are exploring PTSD with Crosshair into the story. So Wrecker, Hunter and Fennec are having fun in space Florida. More than the smells, the space crocodiles that we see later, and that you can't breathe freely or else you'd die; I'd hate the flies buzzing about more than anything there, eugh... Fennec mentions that the mark is as slippery as they come, and my god he was a toughie to take down. All those stun shots and he was still coming for them! I think he's a space praying mantis. Fennec definitely needed the boys help to bring him in. The meditation scene is delightful and something that can definitely help Crosshair, though its not an overnight cure. You can hear the pang of regret when Omega mentions that he's missed a lot with him saying "I know". Crosshair puts on a facade, but he's actually quite sensitive behind that mask. Obviously I won't spoil who the contact is, but Fennec doesn't exactly double cross our boys here either. She merely contacts the person, though of course its done in such a way that our crew may become in peril.

2024-05-16 15:47:10 +0000 UTCIt makes sense that the BB are starting to wonder the nature of the Empire’s interests in Omega: I should clear up one little detail though - to them, M-count is just a term. They have no concept of what it means or the definition. Fennec is a bounty Hunter and she’s very much in it for herself at this point in her career - so she’s definitely a wild card - but at the same time, when you think about the list of candidates, she’s probably one of the easier ones to reason with. By the way, the guy sitting with her reminded me of Greedo. That species never has any luck in shady bars. 😂 The reason they didn’t use the mines against the “alligators” was because their boat still needed to cross the area and also that would’ve alerted their target. Crosshair is having issues because of nothing physically but his whole world got turned upside down - who wouldn’t have a few emotional effects from that. Omega is kind of trying to build a bridge between them, but you know, he doesn’t like anything… so he’s kind of like, I won’t like this either, but let’s give it a try. Fennec promised upon completion only to put the clones in touch with someone who knew about M-count. So that’s probably who is being contacted. She made no guarantees about how the meet would go. I’m not gonna say anything, ill just leave you to think about the roster of candidates. Have fun guessing. 🤭
