The Captain and the Senator

Chapter 4 - Project Spycraft

Summary: After learning of Omega’s abduction, Riyo Chuchi and the clones plan a stealth reconnaissance mission into the Imperial Inspectorate HQ for intel on Hemlock’s lab. Once there, Rex and Riyo run into Boil, discover a list of clone deserters, and recruit Admiral Barton Coburn for the Clone Underground.

Word count: 4.4k

Warnings: One fluffy Rexiyo scene.

Notes: This takes places during Omega’s first stint at Tantiss. I refuse to believe the regs wouldn’t or couldn’t help Hunter and Wrecker search for Omega. I like to think whatever mission Rex and Echo were on that kept them for two rotations had to have been related to her or Tantiss. I might’ve gotten a little carried away tying in other people and places, but I think it works.

Chapter 3 - Table of Contents - Chapter 5

“I’ve got a bad feeling about this, Senator.”

“This was your idea, Captain.”

Despite Riyo’s best efforts to tailor a Pantoran guard’s uniform to Rex’s measurements, the helmet is still too big for the clone’s head. It falls over his nose as they walk along the First Battle Memorial. Rex pushes it back up in time to nod to an Imperial officer. Following close behind, Riyo wonders if she should have brought along one of her guards after all.

Echo had returned from Ord Mantell several rotations ago with news of Omega’s abduction by a Dr. Royce Hemlock. The clones were divided on next steps. Echo and Gregor wanted to join Hunter and Wrecker on the search. Howzer and Fireball wanted to continue preparing the base on Teth where Nemec and a few others were waiting for more supplies. Samson was loath to leave the base on Pantora unguarded, and Greer felt the base on Orto Plutonia still needed renovations. Rex was torn.

Riyo cast the deciding vote. “Continue with your missions. We cannot begin the search without knowing where to look first. Rex, you and I must call on all our contacts.”

Halle Burtoni was no longer amenable to any contact with Riyo Chuchi, convinced by Rampart’s arrest that she would soon face a similar fate. Imperial officers stonewalled Bail Organa at every turn. Even Senator Mon Mothma offered her help and only reached as far as Finis Valorum’s opinion that any Imperial assets guarded closely enough to trip up the good senator from Alderaan would require the highest-level security clearances. At least Chairman Papanoida managed to point to the Durands for some intel; Echo comm’d Hunter and Wrecker with the tip while the regs continued pulling strings. None of Rex’s contacts within the Empire could turn up anything on a Dr. Hemlock or an Advanced Science Division.

“Would Rampart have had a high enough security clearance?” Riyo looks around the holotable at each clone.

Rex shakes his head. “Yes, but it would’ve been revoked by now.”

“Of course, but what about his computer?” Riyo starts to feel out of her depth, but she continues, “Would the databanks in his office have been wiped?”

“No!” Gregor lands a light punch on the table. “Echo, you said Kamino was evacuated before the bombardment.”

Annoyance crumples Echo’s face. “What does that have to do with anything?”

“Could some of the clones from Kamino have been taken to wherever Howzer and the others were heading?” Gregor knows it’s a stretch.

“It’s possible.” Echo rubs his chin. “They haven’t all been accounted for. What does that have to do with Rampart?”

Howzer catches on. “Any information related to Rampart’s arrest can’t be wiped. They’ll be part of Imperial records. That should include the destination for the clones evacuated from Kamino.”

Realization dawns in a wave around the table.

“Internal Affairs might’ve already taken the databanks from Rampart’s office,” Gregor taps at the holotable and brings up a map of the former Republic military base on Coruscant, “but the backups are housed in the building’s central processing grid. If we can get into Rampart’s office, we can access the backup databanks.”

Echo doesn’t like their odds. “Can’t we just connect to any panel at HQ? Or go directly to the building’s central databanks?”

“No,” Rex remembers some quirks in Republic security, “if Chancellor Valorum is right, only the highest-level security clearances will get us in, and those could still be on Rampart’s computer.”

“They’re tied to the office, not the officer?” Fireball wonders why they haven’t stormed HQ yet. “Seems sloppy.”

“For the sake of efficiency,” Nemec’s holographic image ponders, “so that incoming officers can get to work without waiting for the system to update.”

Greer is curious. “Who’s Rampart’s replacement?”

Samson’s ahead of him. “I don’t think he’ll be replaced, which means his computer is probably already gone.”

Rex turns to Riyo. “What about Senate records?” The men fall silent.

The Senator shakes her head. “I tried. Much of Rampart’s arrest has already been locked and classified. By the Emperor, I imagine. The Imperial Inspectorate HQ is our best chance of finding anything on Hemlock’s laboratory if it is still an ongoing project.”

The clones settle into quiet contemplation. They all know Gregor’s hunch is a stretch, but it doesn’t feel beyond the realm of possibility. A top-secret Advanced Science Division could be responsible for the top-secret clone assassin whose identifying number could be erased only by top-secret technologies. Rampart’s deployment of the clone assassin means he likely had access to the Advanced Science Division helmed by Hemlock – a tenuous connection but their best lead so far.

And after everything Howzer and his men had recounted about their time on Balmorra, it was evident that the Empire’s attitudes towards the clones contained two contradictory notions: they were both inconsequential and a threat, treated like disposable debris but deliberately divided from each other. Everyone in the galaxy knew what the Jedi-influenced Republic troopers were capable of doing when they worked together, so separating and isolating them between several facilities, between prisons and science divisions, was a logical strategy.

“We have to try.” Riyo breaks the silence. “For Omega.”

The men nod at each other and begin.

“Rex, can you get us some stormtrooper gear?”

The Captain hits the brakes. “Negative.”

The men share confused looks. Echo swings his arms out, gesturing to the makeshift command deck on the top floor of a “community center,” and counters, “You can get all this equipment, but not—”

“The Imperial Command Center isn’t a transport ship or a planet on the Outer Rim,” Rex explains. “It’s the head of military operations in the heart of the Empire. Checkpoints in each section require codes that change multiple times a day.” He punches a few buttons on the holotable and highlights on the map dozens of checkpoints manned by armed troopers, metal sensors, and bioscanners.

“What, you can’t get the codes?” Gregor ribs the Captain. In another lifetime, the commando would’ve recruited CT-7567 for his squad.

Rex smirks. “I’m good, but I’m not that good. Why doesn’t the commando have a crack at it?”

Gregor laughs. “You can’t get rid of me that easy, Rex, old boy. I intend to—”

“I was able to get in with one of my guards.” Ever soft and light, Riyo’s voice commands the men’s attentions. “I had a meeting with Rampart to discuss provisions for…” She trails off, ashamed, and casts her eyes down. Rex rests a reassuring hand on her shoulder, and she covers his hand with hers.

He picks up her lead. “Echo, can you schedule an appointment for the Senator?”

“Without alerting them? Depends on the officer.”

Rex nods. “I know just the one.”

Echo had insisted that he be the one to accompany Riyo into the Imperial Command Center, nearly coming to blows with Rex, but his scomp was difficult to disguise. Howzer had returned to Teth, and Gregor and Fireball left to liberate another clone prisoner transport, leaving Rex as the Senator’s sole accomplice. He wasn’t as adept with computers as Echo or Nemec, but he had a few tricks up his sleeve to bypass some security. As a precaution, he rigged a comlink into the Pantoran helmet and kept an encrypted line open to Echo who hid in the back of Riyo’s senatorial speeder. All Riyo had to do was walk to Rampart’s office.

“She’ll be safe,” Rex assures Filip in the Senator’s office at Pantoran City. They were scheduled to leave for Coruscant in half a rotation.

“I’m more worried about you.” Filip turns his tall helmet over in Rex’s hands. “You don’t exactly look Pantoran.”

Rex smirks and tries on the guard’s helmet. “You don’t recruit off-worlders?”

“Perhaps they should,” Riyo chimes in, holding out a hanger with a Pantoran guard’s uniform. “I did my best, but Filip has a point. Perhaps we should paint—”

“I’m not doing blue face, Senator.” He sets the helmet down on the coffee table and stands to take the uniform. He knows he doesn’t look Pantoran enough to pass as one of Riyo’s guards, but none of the guards the clones spoke to felt up to the task of successfully navigating Imperial security, much less committing treason.

“I wouldn’t be offended, Rex. Just the lower half of your face, the only part of you that is not covered.”

Rex looks to Filip for support, but the guard simply shrugs. “Whatever it takes, Captain. You know more about Imperial systems than any of us.”

The clone turns towards the adjoining fresher where he changes into the custom uniform. Rex is no stranger to disguises, but for a moment, as he adjusts the cape around his shoulders through his reflection above the sink, he wonders what his life would be like protecting the Senator or the Chairman as an official guard. He’s surprised to find that the idea doesn’t turn him off.

Filip wolf whistles and salutes when Rex returns in full regalia. “Looks good!”

Riyo sits on the sofa, an open tin of blue stage paint in her lap and a brush in her hand. She gestures for Rex to sit next to her and smiles when she gets a closer look at her handiwork. She could have had her own seamstress or a droid make the alterations, but in the interests of total secrecy, she spent two rotations poking Rex with pins and hunched over a sewing machine. She pinches his collar where the ornamental tassel hangs, smoothing it down his chest while unaware of her guard’s watchful surprise. Rex smirks at her pride, and Riyo smiles back. Filip makes a mental note to leave them alone more often.

“A little short for a Pantoran guard,” Filip interrupts.

Rex huffs as Riyo crooks a finger under his chin to expose his neck to the window’s light. “Nothing I can do there, Fil.”

Riyo swirls her brush around in the tin and starts at Rex’s Adam’s apple. “Your brother is the same height as the good captain, Filip, and no one in the Assembly thinks less of him because of it.”

“Speak for yourself, Senator. He is my little brother, after all.” Filip smiles and leaves to return to his post just outside the double doors.

Riyo continues in silence, quickly covering Rex’s neck and jaw. He tilts his chin down when she reaches his cheeks. She senses him tense up and tries to calm him.

“I would’ve thought you liked blue.” She smiles and catches surprise in his eyes.

Rex clears his throat. “Uh, well, I like it better on you.”

Riyo’s eyebrows shoot up. “I meant because of your armor.” She tries to hide her smile and focus on the last stretches of his tan skin left. “But thank you, Rex.” She catches his lips turn into a smirk as he squeezes her thigh. She bites her bottom lip to stifle her squeal.

Rex wonders if he’s turning as purple as she is.

~~~

Rex straightens his posture and balances the Pantoran helmet on the crown of his head as they enter the Imperial Inspectorate HQ. Not much had changed in the way it looked, but to the Captain of the 501st, the absence of the clones’ customized colors changed everything. Nondescript troopers roamed the atrium in squads or platoons. He counts only a handful of the clones’ helmets. Rex finds it easier to suppress the urge to nod or salute with the balancing act on his head. Two troopers man the front desk, one in front of and the other behind it.

The one in front steps forward, holding his rifle across his chest. “State your business.”

Riyo steps next to Rex who stands at attention. “I have a meeting with Admiral Barton Coburn.”

Keys clack behind the desk while Rex takes in all points of in- and egress in his peripheral vision. He knows to avoid the main entrance if he and Riyo need to make a quick escape.

The trooper behind the desk speaks up. “TK-3094, escort the Senator to Admiral Coburn’s office.”

Riyo raises a hand. “Thank you, but I can find my way.”

TK-3094 stands unmoving in front of her. “Standard procedure, Senator.”

Rex’s fists tighten behind his back. He knows this was not standard operating procedure when it was the Republic Center for Military Operations. He hopes his knowledge of the building’s security systems are still reliable.

“And have your guard leave his weapon here.”

“As I recall, trooper,” Riyo moves past TK-3094 towards the desk, “that was not standard procedure when I was last here. What’s one firearm to a building of battalions? And my guards are bound by Pantoran decree to remain armed in my presence. They are not subject to Imperial whims.”

Riyo squares her shoulders and hopes she hasn’t flexed her command too far. She turns towards Rex who faces his own silent standoff with TK-3094. She’s glad his visor hides his gaze, though she spies his lips twitch into a smirk. Whether at her bravado or the unmoving TK trooper, she wasn’t sure, but she hopes he’ll remain silent or risk undermining her own words.

“For now,” warns the voice behind the desk. Riyo whips around with a stern look before the trooper waves his hand. “Very well. On your way.”

TK-3094 walks ahead of Rex and Riyo, brandishing his security pass at each checkpoint, as they make several turns down several corridors. In his helmet, Rex hears Echo growl, “Get rid of him.” Riyo hears the faint grumble and looks up into Rex’s helmet. He shakes his head imperceptibly. Two more turns will bring them past Rampart’s office. Riyo looks around for a distraction in the empty hallway. To her surprise, it comes from behind.

“Senator Chuchi, to what do we owe this pleasure?”

The three turn around to face an Imperial officer. He’s just far enough to obscure his name tag, but Riyo recognizes his rank.

“Admiral, I—”

“You’re early.” He extends a welcoming hand on her arm. She spies his name and looks up in relief. He turns to TK-3094. “You’re dismissed.”

Rex and Riyo continue down the hall with Admiral Coburn who waits for the TK trooper to turn the corner before addressing them. They walk side by the side, the men flanking Riyo.

“Senator, I must commend you for your defense of clone rights on the Senate floor.” Coburn walks at attention, hands folded behind his back. “Many still serve under my command, and they took your impassioned speech to heart. Know that you are not alone in believing the clones deserve more than what the Empire is willing to give them.”

“Thank you, Admiral. It is always reassuring to know whom one’s allies are.”

“Indeed.” Without pause, Coburn asks, “What’s your name, trooper?” The Admiral was a shrewd man. He would recognize a clone anywhere.

“Rex, sir,” without breaking stride, “it’s good to see you.”

Coburn turns his head halfway in Rex’s direction. “Captain? I— records said you were killed in action.”

“Yes, sir, en route to Coruscant from the Siege of Mandalore.”

“How did you survive?”

“I had help.”

They turn a corner and wait for a pair of troopers to pass before continuing.

“It is not safe for you to be here, Captain,” Coburn warns under his breath. “If the Empire finds out you’re alive, you will be branded a deserter and hunted down. You must leave. What were you two thinking?”

Riyo speaks slightly above a whisper. “We need your help, Admiral. A friend of mine was taken by an Imperial scientist named Dr. Royce Hemlock. We only wish to locate her.”

“I’ve never heard of a Hemlock.” Coburn doesn’t hide his agitation. “What did your friend do to warrant her capture?”

“Nothing, Admiral,” Rex grumbles. “I bet you won’t even find an arrest warrant for her in the system.”

Coburn stops and looks down. He groans, “I am sure you are right.”

Rex and Riyo turn to face him. Their fears of more Imperial officers acting with impunity are confirmed in the Admiral’s sighs and sagging shoulders. They look around and find Coburn’s office two doors down. Hope blooms in the empty hallway.

“You could’ve turned me in, Admiral.” Rex tests him. “But you brought us to your office. This is why we scheduled a meeting with you.”

Coburn looks up and meets Rex’s determination. “What do you need, Captain?”

They hurry into the Admiral’s office. Coburn and Riyo head for the desk while Rex keeps his ear to the door, blaster in hand. He shifts his head inside the oversized helmet to whisper into the comlink.

“Mako-2, still there?”

“Copy, Mako-1. I’m patched into the building’s comm channel. So far, so good.”

“Signal when the hallway is clear. We’ll wait to leave until then.”

“Copy that.”

Rex turns and nods to Riyo who stands behind Coburn sitting at his desk.

The Admiral taps at his console and lights up the screen. “What are we looking for?”

Riyo whispers, “Anything pertaining to Vice Admiral Edmon Rampart and his operations on Kamino.”

Keys clack as Coburn scoffs, “I never did like him.” The Admiral remembers Rampart’s identifying number and heads straight to his profile. The screen flashes an error message.

“Oh, no.” Riyo stares in shock. She realizes the locked documents in the Senate records were a placeholder.

Coburn is more determined. “That’s odd. Let me do a general search.”

Error message.

“Rex!” Riyo is wide-eyed and breathless as she turns towards the door. “They wiped him completely. There’s no record of Rampart in the Imperial system.”

Coburn continues clacking. “Only his arrest and his current location at a labor camp.”

“But no record of his service?” Rex takes a step towards the desk. “Any of his projects?” He wonders how much more the Empire is willing to erase and cover up.

“Not here at HQ.” The Admiral types furiously at his terminal, eyes fused to the screen. “Maintenance logs indicate his databanks were moved immediately after his arrest.”

Riyo wonders why. “Where?”

“It doesn’t say.”

Riyo still wonders why. “Are you sure they weren’t destroyed?”

“They appear on the manifest of a transport ship headed to…” Coburn trails off as he meets dozens of redacted lines.

“Scarif?”

Riyo turns from Coburn’s screen to Rex at the door. “It’s been classified. Why do you say—”

“I have a contact who works construction there. They’re not sure what they’re building, but he said they’re receiving tons of databanks every day.”

“Where’s Scarif?” She hopes it’s close enough to Pantora that they can resupply and make the journey before she’s called back to the Senate in a few rotations.

“In the Abrion sector, close to Kamino.” Rex had never been, but he knows if the Empire is building something top-secret on the Outer Rim, it can’t be good.

“Is it dangerous?” It’s a question Riyo asks Rex before every mission, but today, she’s curious more for herself than the clones. She had never asked to be a part of their missions, well-aware that her skillset was better suited to the Senate than the field, but now she wonders if the Captain will continue to let and help her expand her expertise.

Rex smirks. “More dangerous than the center of Imperial military operations?” He’s unaware of Riyo’s ambitions to join the clones on more of their missions, assuming instead that the Senator, as always, is worried about their safety.

Coburn butts in. “There’s something else. Communications to and from Rampart’s office.”

Riyo looks over the Admiral’s shoulder and finds—

“A list of clone numbers? Transmitted to… where?” She starts reading off, “CT-3947, CT-0569, CC-2224—”

“Wait!” Rex is already halfway to the desk. “Repeat that last one.”

“CC-2224. Did you know him?”

Rex peers over Riyo and tilts his helmet up and away from his eyes. “What is this?”

“There are dates next to each CT number and ‘AWOL.’” Riyo looks up in shock. “Rex, these clones are all deserters.”

Rex reaches over Coburn’s hands, punches a key, and brings the printer to life. “How long’s the list?”

Coburn looks up and shakes his head. “Captain, it’s–”

“Mako-1!” Echo cuts through in Rex’s helmet. “Two squads inbound. No alarm’s been tripped. Something’s up.”

“We have to go.” Rex grabs the paper that’s already out of the printer and stuffs it flat against his chest inside his uniform. “We got two squads headed our way.”

Coburn shuts off his terminal, sending the room into darkness. “Senator, over there.” He points to one of two chairs in front of his desk. “Captain, at attention next to the door. Follow my lead.”

Rex flicks the switch to turn the lights on. Coburn smooths his uniform as he walks around the desk and perches on the corner closest to Riyo. The sound of the squads’ radio chatter announces their arrival before they enter.

A knock prompts Coburn to answer, “Come in.”

The door swings open, and Rex meets the unmistakable visor of a clone trooper. His markings had been painted over grey, but the silhouette of a hawkbat on the left side of his helmet gives him away. Boil. He aims his rifle between Coburn and Riyo.

“Admiral, please step outside.” Boil lowers his weapon.

“Gladly, Sergeant. The Senator and I were just finishing.”

Boil extends a downward palm in Riyo’s direction. “Remain seated, Senator.”

Coburn stops in his steps. “What is the meaning of this?”

“This meeting was never registered with the Senate.”

Rex hears Echo curse in his left ear. The Corporal had only fixed the Imperial Inspectorate’s books and forgotten that appointments were made through Senate channels. “Stand by, Mako-1.”

Riyo stands, her face and voice immovable. “I did not think a visit with an old friend required Senate approval.”

Boil wasn’t having it. “Right,” he stretches the word two syllables longer, “but you registered it in the Imperial Inspectorate’s logbook and only our logbook.”

“Sergeant, this is nothing more than a clerical error.” Coburn puts a hand on the clone’s spaulder. “I can assure you the Senator and I were merely discussing—”

“You can discuss it with Internal Affairs.” Boil brushes off Coburn’s hand. “Both of you, come with me.”

“Sergeant, I must protest.” Riyo stands her ground. “As a member of the Imperial Senate, I am under no obligation…”

The rest is muted by the blood beating in Rex’s ears. He only knows that his hand is on his blaster, his eyes on Boil’s rifle slowly inching up to point towards Riyo. Before he can wrap a finger on his trigger, Echo chimes in. “Fixed.”

Rex stands back at attention and curtly tucks his chin in. Coburn catches the half nod.

“Check again, Sergeant.” The Admiral moves back to his desk and turns his console on. “The Senate’s systems aren’t as up-to-date as ours. Sometimes they don’t sync properly.” He taps at keys quickly.

“Admiral, stand down. You are ordered to—”

“Sergeant, I order you to stand down and look at the screen!”

While Echo was stationed in the back of the Senator’s speeder parked outside HQ, Riyo’s usual guards were on standby in her office where she would rendezvous with them for the return trip to Pantora. Echo comm’d Roland and Tival with instructions to make an appointment through one of Riyo’s aide’s terminals and cover up the time delay in the Senate’s system.

Boil looks down at Coburn’s console. His helmet hides his reaction, but Rex can hear the low hmm of a clone trooper processing new information. He’d heard it enough times to know that whatever Echo did had worked.

Still looking down at the screen, Boil punches a key and orders the troopers outside the door. “Stand down.” He looks up at Coburn. “Apologies, Admiral. It seems you were right about the delay between HQ and the Senate’s systems.”

“Good day, Sergeant.” Coburn was done with pleasantries and wanted only to be rid of Boil and his troopers. He fixes his face into a cold glare.

The squads retreat further down the hallway. Boil reaches the open door and turns to face the right side of Rex’s helmet. “Funny how a senator’s appointment appears first in our system before her own.” His visor turns slightly over his shoulder in Riyo’s direction.

“Curious, indeed.” She follows the Admiral’s lead. “Good day, Sergeant.”

Rex remains motionless, his back to the wall. He knows Boil is on to them, but for some reason, does no more.

“Whatever you’re doing, trooper,” Boil rumbles low enough for only Rex to hear, “don’t.”

Rex can’t decide if it’s a warning or a threat. Boil decides for him.

“Tun s’oko fendoon circaa, nerra.”

Rex doesn’t understand most of it, but he recognizes nerra. Between Waxer’s stories of Numa and Howzer’s constant cursing in Twi’leki, he understands “brother.” He understands Boil’s show of force in a superior’s office and his failure to arrest him. Rex turns his helmet enough to catch Boil nod. He returns the gesture and watches his nerra close the door.

Coburn and Riyo release the breaths they’d been holding and sit down. They don’t understand the exchange, but they know it was significant.

Echo interrupts the silence. “Mako-1, did he just say—”

“Yeah. It was Boil.”

“Will he—”

“No.” Rex takes a deep breath and finally moves. “We should go.”

Rex opens the door and swivels his head towards both ends of the hallway. Coburn and Riyo gather behind him. “Lead the way, Admiral.”

“Back the way you came.” Coburn steps into the hall, with Rex and Riyo close behind. “The front desk will be expecting you.”

“With more squads in the atrium.” Rex reaches for his blaster.

Coburn catches the movement. “Stand down, Captain. I’ll walk you out.”

Once again, Riyo is flanked by the men. “We can’t thank you enough for your help, Admiral. Rex spoke highly of you before, and I see now he was being modest.” She reaches a hand to Coburn’s shoulder. “You’re a good man.”

Two turns around two corners and two long corridors will bring them within sight of the main entrance. As they continue, Coburn lays a hand on Riyo’s back.

“Thank you, both of you. It’s reassuring to know there are still good people doing good work in the galaxy.”

Rex whispers, “We may need your help again in the future, Admiral.”

“And you shall have it, Captain. The Empire is not the Republic, and I am afraid we are doing more harm than good.”

“We can change that.” Rex lowers his whisper as the atrium comes in sight.

“‘We?’ You, me, and the Senator?” Coburn scoffs. “We’re vastly outnumbered.”

“Perhaps.” Riyo reaches for Rex’s hand. “But it’s not just us.”

James Coburn was a versatile American actor renowned for his distinctive voice, charismatic screen presence, and wide-ranging roles across film and television. Born on August 31, 1928, in Laurel, Nebraska, Coburn’s career spanned several decades, during which he became known for his work in action films, Westerns, and dramas.

Coburn’s early career was marked by his breakthrough role in The Magnificent Seven (1960), a classic Western film directed by John Sturges. In this film, Coburn played Britt, a skilled gunfighter with a calm demeanor and quick reflexes. His portrayal of Britt established him as a leading man in Hollywood and showcased his ability to handle action-oriented roles with ease.

Another defining role came in The Great Escape (1963), where Coburn portrayed the character of "Louie" Sedgwick, a charismatic and resourceful prisoner of war. The film, which was based on a true story of a mass escape from a German POW camp during World War II, highlighted Coburn’s talent for playing complex and engaging characters.

Throughout the 1960s and 1970s, Coburn appeared in several notable films, including Our Man Flint (1966) and its sequel In Like Flint (1967). In these films, Coburn played the suave and resourceful secret agent Derek Flint, a role that allowed him to blend charm, humor, and action. His performance in these spy films showcased his versatility and solidified his status as a leading action star.

Coburn also starred in Pat Garrett and Billy the Kid (1973), a Western directed by Sam Peckinpah. In this film, he played the role of Pat Garrett, a former outlaw turned lawman, opposite Kris Kristofferson as Billy the Kid. Coburn’s portrayal of Garrett was marked by its depth and complexity, reflecting his ability to handle nuanced and multifaceted roles.

One of Coburn’s most acclaimed performances came in The Last Samurai (2003), where he played the role of Colonel Bagley, a character who provides a counterpoint to Tom Cruise’s protagonist. The film, which explores the clash of cultures and the end of the samurai era in Japan, showcased Coburn’s ability to bring depth and gravitas to his roles.

Coburn’s career also included significant television work, with appearances in series such as The Rockford Files and Hunter. His television roles allowed him to further explore his range as an actor and contributed to his broad appeal.

In addition to his acting career, Coburn was known for his dedication to martial arts. He studied and practiced various martial arts disciplines, which informed and enhanced his performances in action films. His commitment to physical fitness and martial arts was a testament to his dedication to his craft.

James Coburn passed away on November 18, 2002, but his legacy endures through his extensive filmography and the impact he had on the entertainment industry. His roles in action films, Westerns, and dramas continue to be celebrated for their depth, charisma, and the distinctive style he brought to each character. Coburn’s contributions to cinema have cemented him as a prominent and influential figure in Hollywood’s history.

Hunter-Coburn Family

"The Time Masters discourage marriage.

They urge against procreation even more.

A Time Master should be free of any personal entanglements that might compromise him. But I fell in love, and we had a child.

A boy. Jonas."

Post-Hoot for Edge of the World AND Labyrinth Runners!

-According to Bosook Coburn (face and namesake for Bo), they were sitting on the fact of King being a Titan “for so long” and noticed how people predicted it really early too, and they were just like “…Well COOL, sure… We’re just gonna let that lie… We’re gonna- We will confirm that eventually.” Not to brag, but I was one of those people who guessed it from the very beginning, one of the first...!

-As director of the episode, it was “interesting” because they were still figuring out a lot of the lore (I presume Bo means the animators, not the writers), so there was a lot of working with new material as they were given it. They got to design the Titan Trapper island, the general setting; Bo noted that with this episode and Hollow Mind before, they were getting into “darker territory” and thus needed to “handle it as delicately as possible”. Bo boarded the scene where King hugs Luz’s leg at the end; As she explains, “When moments like that happen, it’s such a rare thing in animation because we have so much that we’re trying to fit in, that it’s hard to get a quiet moment like that, so when you do you just want to milk it, take it for all its worth.”

-King Pecora worked on the parts where they met Tarak, entered the town and saw the different Titan Trappers, as well as the ritual with the Collector.

-Bo thinks they left this episode like over a YEAR ago (This Post-Hoot was released just before O Titan, Where Art Thou).

-Bo met Dana while working on Tangled.

-Rebecca did confirm here that they ARE on King’s dad, the Boiling Isles is his father, without a doubt.

-Luz Batista (AKA Luz Noceda’s real-world namesake and inspiration) had her first writing credit for Labyrinth Runners. She came onto TOH as a storyboard revisionist, she was a story consultant from the very beginning because of “cultural stuff” and using “references”, just input and background. From there she got to sit in the writer’s room once or twice and was nervous because she was being perceived. She eventually became a story artist and was asked to help write an episode, hence LR.

-Luz (Batista) met Dana at school, they both used to work in “the animation cage”, they would talk about what real life was like, how to prepare themselves for it. Dana would talk to students from other schools, so they can figure out what they’re learning and how this prepares them, only to realize nobody has a goddamn clue.

-Luz Batista was “not gonna say” if the Sailor Moon pose between Amity and Willow was her idea; She legitimately couldn’t remember. According to her, their work on Labyrinth Runners was in November and December of 2020.

-Cissy admits that her superpower is forgetting sessions, because she didn’t remember doing the scene where Lilith kicks the door in and says she came as soon as she heard (in Edge of the World). Similarly, Sarah has issues remembering quotes, and Bo recalls how Dana early on would sometimes ask her if she remembered a thing that would happen; Bo would give a confused no to Dana’s surprise, given it was from Bo’s episode.

-Bo explained that the glowing eyes of Willow and Gus are an “emotional response”, heightened by their emotions. As Luz Batista puts it, “You see how he deals with his anxiety, how in that moment fear, all these projections come out and he’s still not grounded yet, until later when Hunter finally grounds him down.” As someone mercilessly picked on in high school, Cissy identified with Gus’ moments so bigly.

-Bo thinks Alex Hirsch came up with “WEH” for King, “it became something that was so deeply ingrained in King’s character, like we would just add it in wherever we could, in boards, and in the script, and all that stuff,” and that just led to them deciding it was a Titan trait.

-Cissy admitted she found Bump with his hair out “hot” and Sarah agreed “He was kind of a baddie”, Luz Batista concurred “You gotta love a good adult.”

-Luz Batista confirmed Boscha wasn’t present because of animation budget, “Not everyone can be on-screen sometimes”. As she continues, “I feel like we’ve had a lot of time with Boscha before, where, it was time to kind of show where- how the other characters interplay with each other and, uh, how she also doesn’t have to dominate a moment.” Sarah adds, “No one needed her negative energy,” which Luz confirms. Cissy does reiterate that it’s really expensive to animate a face, with its blinking eyes and mouth. Bo does love Boscha, her VA Eden Riegel is so funny and sweet, which makes it so surreal to see such meanness come out of her, but that’s also part of the fun for Bo and Sarah too.

-Sarah liked that Willow “owned it,” “she knew she was a badass”. Gus “really sees her”. As Luz Batista explains, “That was something we kept in mind, when writing this episode, how Gus fits into everything, and how he feels, and what his world is like, and it was nice to kind of explore that with him, I really enjoyed Gus.” Sarah agreed, she wanted to know so much more about his illusions and needed that episode. Illusions and Oracle are Luz Batista’s favorite tracks.

-When discussing how it’s difficult to remember and keep track of so many different storylines, Luz ALMOST mentioned a spoiler, but Sarah stopped her in time.

-Luz said she can’t answer if Gus can see the memories of people he casts under his spell; But with Graye’s mirror… (Note: I feel this is relevant with S3 impending and Hunter’s anxiety over being a Grimwalker, when we saw the episode prior how Gus inflicted Belos’ memories on him and possibly got a glimpse of the creation process.)

-Rebecca confirmed, alas, that the Illusion Coven Teacher doesn’t have a name.

-If they had to pick a track; For King Pecora it was beast-keeping, because he likes spiders, and has a spider tattoo on his neck. He has pet tarantulas, Sarah has a sister-in-law who’s also fond of them; This fact has made Sarah rethink her “Everything but beastkeeping” stance. Bo would have a mix between the Plant and Healing covens. She comes from a family of doctors, which is why the character named after her is in the Healing Track. As Bo says “We got to pick our own incidentals’ tracks.” Cissy reiterates “most of the members of the crew have a character that is kind of loosely based on them in the show,” and Bo added “Especially like the people who worked on Season 1, just because that’s when we were in the very beginning of making all these incidental characters.” She said we’ll see more crew incidentals in the future!!!

-Rebecca would go for beastkeeping because animals and creatures are cool, as well as abominations because of what Amity and Darius have recently done. She also considered Oracle, “it’s like ghosts and stuff”.

-Sarah would be a wild witch, she doesn’t have the discipline to choose.

-Luz Batista reiterated her choice of Illusion and Oracle, and would totally go to school first and THEN break away.

-Bo said they’re not allowed to explain how long it takes for a Titan to grow. She also said that they had to fight to keep the scene revealing that King’s siblings had been murdered, as Disney found it too dark. Sarah retorted that she saw the new Doctor Strange that day and doesn’t want to hear anything from Disney, bewildered that “they came for US?!” Bo confirmed that yes, all those skulls belonged to Titan BABIES, the implications of a lot of these episodes are ‘kinda’ dark.

-When asked why the Collector is called the Grand Huntsman by the Titan Trappers, Bo replied “Yeah I think that’s mostly having to do with their lore and how the Collector presented themselves to them, but y’know- A lot of it has to do with Bill, and Bill, y’know…”

-Luz doesn’t want to know Eberwolf’s age and prefers to think of them as some ageless creature. Everyone at the Post-Hoot didn’t know Eberwolf’s pronouns (but we are told by Dana in another Post-Hoot).

-Bo boarded the scene where the EC surrounded the Owl House. She wouldn’t answer if King had a mother. She was on for the entire run of the show, from the first episode to the end of Season 3; Bo started working in 2017, the year before TOH was first announced. According to Bo, it took over four years to make the show. Cissy’s first audition was in 2018, and she only got called back the next year.

-King (Pecora)’s favorite thing that he personally boarded –that he could remember- was the baby King bits; It was one of his first episodes of the show, King boarded the flashback of when Eda found King. He looks really fondly back at the Raine and Eda fight too, as he doesn’t do action really often well; King really likes Raine and Eda. In general, his second-favorite moment of the show was the stuff in Hollow Mind; His favorite overall is in Season 3.

-Bo tends to board a lot of the emotions, one of her favorite scenes she boarded was the scene between Luz and Amity under the Grom tree, when they talk about Luz’s dad; It was a really personal thing they wanted to add in, so Bo was trying to do it justice. She also loved Ben’s boards for the Reaching Out fight montage (Bo explained they don’t know the titles of episodes, just production codes). She let Ben do his thing, and he did what he did best.

-Rebecca’s favorite moments are from Season 3; Bo mentioned their answers would likely be very different if they could mention S3, it was very fresh in their minds according to Sarah. That said, one of her favorite moments was when Luz, Eda, and King are looking at the Boiling Isles as a whole in Episode 2, and Eda explains to Luz how she needs to take her chance to be a chosen one by making it for herself. Bo noted the lesson was a core theme of the show. Rebecca also liked Luz and Amity’s moment in Covention where Luz reveals her light glyph; Bo boarded the cheek kiss from Through the Looking Glass Ruins, and in response to Rebecca’s confirmation of this, changed her answer to include that moment.

-Luz (Batista) confirmed that “Batata” (sweet potato) was not her idea; In fact, she didn’t know what batata was, because she’d never asked for sweet potatoes in Spanish before. Sarah also didn’t recognize the word. Luz Batista also has favorite moments from S3.

-Rebecca liked Hollow Mind, liked how the Grom tree went full circle in Reaching Out.

-Sarah liked the flashbacks and soft Eda moments of Eda’s Requiem, such as when King announced his Clawthorne adoption. She loved all of Vee’s stuff and her scenes of being out in the world and making friends. Sarah loved the “not-literal” reflection idea, Luz hyping up the human world as the worst, only for Vee to be so happy. She also liked when Camila asked if Luz’s life was so bad here, as it “exposed so many flaws”. Bo boarded that ending scene; Sarah “secretly, selfishly” loves it because it was so sad. She was very excited for Yesterday’s Lie when reading it.

-Bo said Yesterday’s Lie was the first episode they did in quarantine

-Bo said she feels Camila gets a bad rep, she loves Camila so much. “It is one of those things of like yeah we’re mostly following Eda and a few adults, but we really are in the perspective of these young adolescents, so then kind of getting the outside view of like, ‘Oh, how would an adult in our realm actually react to this’, and it was difficult. This prompted Cissy to mention the scene where Eda breaks down in Edge of the World over how Luz and King are just children; Dawn boarded that scene. As Cissy describes it, Eda looked at Lilith and looked so much like a child and she reacted “Oh, baby!”; Bo notes that Eda “IS the younger sister, she’s looking to her older sister for some comfort.”

-Luz Batista’s favorite moment of working on the show was Labyrinth Runners, it’s the happiest moment of her career so far; Boarding AND writing for an episode. She loved seeing the soft side of Hunter. Sarah praised the episode, “I liked seeing them all outside of Luz’s perspective right, because like there’s that sidekick vibe that you can be like ‘What are they really all like’, and I just feel like, we just get such round, like full characters out of all of them, and we just got so much more out of Gus especially, because he’s been Old Faithful, he’s always been there,” Cissy added “there with a joke and like, the Good Old Boi, and to have him really bare his soul was just gorgeous.”

-Bo: “I think genuinely Gus is the person who understands each of them the most”, Luz: “He’s emotionally very present, and keeping up with everyone and noticing, and aware”. Luz Batista wanted to see people talk about their feelings, she makes her friends do it all the time.

-Sarah: “That’s my mark of a true friend, if we can fight about it. Because if we can’t fight, we don’t care enough, if we can really fight –and not like a nasty way, right, I mean sometimes fights get ugly- but like yeah, if you can say ‘What was THAT’ like y’know”

-Bo: “Like you care enough to communicate, because like if you didn’t care you would just like, let it go”

-Sarah: “You have to be able to fight and be like ‘Oh you know what, I’m sorry actually’, when [Hunter] said that ‘I was horrible and I shouldn’t have done that’ it was really beautiful.”

-Sarah said god bless Hunter for finding the wherewithal to be a good friend, because he’s had NO modeling for that, no good relationships for that. Luz Batista added how it was without Luz’s help at the moment as well, “Luz is such a catalyst for everyone to change, where, these people all existed before she got there, you know and, they got around, they made friends, so this is nice that he’s able to find a community to kind of feel safe in.” Sarah liked to see Hunter get his strength back for a moment when he called out Severine as a fake Willow.

-Luz Batista boarded the bit where Hunter and Gus just sit down and talk, the intro of Labyrinth Runners, “Aah my head”, and the counting scene (Batista has to do the counting herself at times).

-Batista discussed how it was an important skill to learn to open up about feelings, not everyone has a Gus around the corner; A lot of people are like Amity with repressed feelings, Bo adds. Sarah quoted Shrek’s onion quote when mentioning how she thinks that a lot of people don’t really know that they’re repressing; A friend can help people realize those feelings.

-Luz Batista is working on Moon Girl and Devil Dinosaur!

-This fact is self-indulgent for me, but on the day of this Post-Hoot the Evil Dead game came out, which is a dream come true for Cissy; Army of Darkness is one of her favorite movies, so to be a part of that game and universe is heaven for her.
