Summary
Crosshair sends a warning to his old friends.
I thought this episode was one of the best so far, and it was so, so nice to have this after last week’s incredibly slow episode. I think this was a powerful episode on a number of levels, as it showed both the evils of the Empire but also how far the character development of Crosshair has come as not only does he defy the Empire but also tries to warn his old teammates.
Moreover, I am also very excited to see the return of Echo and see further insights into the clone rebellion and how they are fighting back against the Empire. I would like to see a spin off focusing on Echo or Rex and the clone fightback, or failing that I would like to see the Batch at the end of the season join the fight back against the Empire.
The one thing I would say about this episode in a negative sense is that it is very heavy and depressing. Which for me worked as I prefer the episodes of this show where they try and take a darker tone and deal with deeper issues, but could also be quite off putting to some, The torture scenes involving Crosshair were quite surprising in how far they went with it.
Overall, another great episode and it is nice to see a return to stakes after last week’s diversion.
4.5/5
Pros.
The darker tone for me
The emotions
Crosshair’s character journey
Seeing the clone rebellion
It is nice to have the Batch back together again
Cons.
It was quite dark and some people might find that off putting
