The Bad Batch: “A Different Approach” and “The Return” (Season 3, Episodes 4–5)
Manage episode 448604451 series 3296869
We may be stewing in the oppressive soup of the Galactic Empire again—but at least we get a family reunion out of it.
“A Different Approach” and “The Return” (The Bad Batch Season 3, Ep. 4–5) ask Crosshair, at gunpoint, if he’s willing to accept the new Bad Batch. (Spoiler alert: He is, and everybody cries.)
These episodes brilliantly weave together threads of Bad Batch yore, giving everybody second chances to shine. Omega gets the chance to hustle entire towns out of their life savings. Crosshair gets the chance to repent for his crimes. Hunter gets a chance to be the leader of a 5-person squad again. And Batcher gets the chance to be the best girl in the galaxy.
