#bad batch 1x01

Tarkin: How many of these enhanced clones do you possess?

Nala Se: Five are all that remain.

Wait, so it’s possible the Bad Batch had OTHER brothers? Did they have to watch them die? Did they die before becoming cadets? What HAPPENED? Who were they supposed to be?

Star Wars: The Bad Batch 1x01 "Aftermath" ★★★★★★★★★☆

[p3rf3ct1mp3rf3ct1on]

#NowWatching Star Wars: The Bad Batch 1x01 "Aftermath"

[zelroy]

I just watched Star Wars: The Bad Batch 1x01 "Aftermath"

[missshezz]

The Ballad of Omega Sue

So, just to prove to the Prodigies on Tumblr how I am an equal opportunity asshole when it comes to frustrations I have with shows...

...the Bad Batch dropped episode one at midnight on May the Fourth and I have some definite issues with the first episode.

I stayed up as @caerulea-divilu watched the episode last night. I am not easily spoiled so it didn’t bother me hearing what was going on. I also am a graduate from the Thought Criminal Academy. So, I watched the episode this morning and developed my own opinions based on what I saw.

In total: I loved the episode despite some glaring plot holes (Rebels stuff was pushed a bit too quickly) and timeline issues (why does Tarkin look decades older despite only months passing in the show really?) I can forgive those because all writers can make those mistakes (I have).

See, I had high hopes when Bad Batch was announced. I was just starting to watch the Clone Wars and caught some YouTube clips of Wrecker doing what he does best while surfing for Cody and Rex content (yanno, two of the most popular clones next to Fives, Echo, Wolffe...)

My anticipation soured when a character called Omega was revealed. I smelled the poodoo a mile away but tried to remain positive. Filoni, despite a number of critical writing mistakes in Clone Wars wouldn’t let us down. This was going to be about the Bad Batch and not some new female character.

Boy, was I wrong.

I know this opinion won’t be popular with the Tumblr crowd, but well, I’m not here to be popular: Omega is the worst part of Bad Batch.

She’s what us old school fan fiction writers like to call a Mary Sue (or Omega Sue as I am going to call her).

What do I mean?

Well, let’s see, she insinuates herself into the BB despite being told to go away repeatedly. She’s Nala Se’s “assistant” despite being a child (who nobody saw before this because plot convenience) and having no other training (despite being enhanced), is clearly psychic because she knows what Crosshair is thinking and tells him not to do it, everyone (with the exception of a few clones and Tarkin who hate her cause she’s “different”) loves her, she can take out Crosshairs weapon without ever shooting a blaster, she is given the Ashoka Tano in the Citadel arc treatment by being written in as to how the Bad Batch escape their holding cell (she’s also the plot reason for why they return to Kamino in the first place), she tells Hunter about not trusting Tarkin (something Echo could easily have done) and what he has planned (because Tech couldn’t find out on his own here with his own skills or Hunter not put together the plot based on that training scenario), even Lama Su and Nala Se love “her” so much they allow “her” to escape (more on this in a bit) and decide to keep it silent.

In short, Omega Sue has plot armor so thick even Palps can’t hit her with force lightning. She’s Filoni’s new love child (Ashoka being his first) and it shows.

Writing tip 101: if a character does not significantly improve or advance your plot?

They don’t belong in the story.

Omega Sue can literally be written out of every scene and the scene does not change. In fact, in some cases, it makes those scenes and the story better.

Example: the food fight scene. They could have written it as the regs ragging on the Bad Batch, showcasing the discrimination (which is honestly terrible given how they were named for 99, who died honorably in service and was regarded as a brother by Hevy, Fives, Jesse, Rex and Cody) among the regs. It could have helped developed the “hierarchy” and how these new clone batches are not like the originals. Wrecker has enough when they start in on Echo and tosses his tray, starting the brawl. Same scene, better focused because it is about THEM. Not some little Sue who has needlessly inserted herself into their group.

The mission to Onderon. Could easily have gone with Tarkin sending out a special regiment to takeout the Bad Batch should they not fulfill their objective. Crosshair could have turned on them then and there and led a fight to bring them down with the Bad Batch team managing to survive and escape. Again showing THEM and THEIR abilities and why they were only FIVE people. This could still have led back to Kamino with Tarkin praising Crosshair, ordering his enhancements and tasking him with hunting down his former teammates. Stronger, allows the team to shine and sets up the rest of the season as Bad Batch versus Crosshair and his new team.

The cell escape (if we wanted to include it). Hunter, Tech and Echo could have fit in that hole. Tech could have figured out another option. They could have fooled the guards into shutting the grid and let Wrecker do what he does best. In short, the scene was written simply to have her in it. Also, the reasoning for imprisoning her? Plot convenience.

The whole show is about her. Filoni and others have said so.

And that’s just fucking terrible.

Her having a father-daughter relationship or brothers-sister relationship with the BB is rehashed Mandalorian and Anakin-Rex-Ashoka. It’s boring. It’s lazy. And it’s taking away from what could be a solid show. I also groaned at her mimicking Hunter and the others. It wasn’t adorable. It was obnoxiously shoving in our faces how stupendously awesome she is and how much she belongs with the BB.

She doesn’t.

She neither compliments them nor adds anything significant to them.

Now, back to Nala Se and Lama Su.

Remember this scene from season 6 of Clone Wars:

https://youtu.be/xHumVdESjgg

Yeah, seems rather funny how Nala Se and Lama Su were all over killing Tup and Fives because they were proving problematic but have grown an attachment to this little Godling (who was ALIVE at the time). Nala Se even helped the little cherub escape before Crosshair could kill her (because she’d let him kill the Bad Batch mark my words). Seems rather unusual for characters who criticized the Jedi for their feelings and archaic thoughts about the clones (who surreptitiously reprogram or decommission at will) to suddenly have such an attachment to one of their creations. It’s OOC, folks. Straight up. They changed their attitudes simply for HER.

Omega is a Sue.

Plain and simple.

If you think I am being too harsh about Omega, that’s fine. If you like Omega, that’s also fine. We can like what we like. I like the show outside of her character. I will continue to watch it. Just not for her. I want Clone content. Real clones. Not some conveniently created one that has been given the Rey development. I want Echo, Rex (nerfed in Clone Wars), Cody (who was screwed in Clone Wars), Wrecker, Wolffe, Gregor, Tech, Hunter, Kix, even Fox. I want to see what happens with them in this new world.

Omega Sue can kriff off.

“Our squad’s nothing but trouble. For your sake, keep your distance. Got it?”
