#the bad batch season 3 trailer

[clone-whore-99]

Did she cut her hair?

or is it in a ponytail? Cuz it looks like it's pulled back in a ponytail, which would mean she's been there long enough for it to grow that long, but I could just be guessing

ALSO THEY DID NOT NEED TO REMIND ME OF SEASON 2 ENDING

MY BOY IS FINE

HE IS JUST RESTING OK, HE IS FINE, HE IS OKAY, HE DID NOT FALL TO HIS DEATH!!!

Glad to see Phee. I was somewhat afraid she wasn’t going to be in season 3. Looking forward to seeing her more :)

The Omega in the Room

Spoilers under the cut for the Bad Batch Season 3 trailer. All of this is my personal theorycrafting.

So something I haven't really seen talked about all that much is this shot of Omega from the new trailer.

She's flying a ship, clad in her Tantiss prison jumpsuit. The haircut is new, but her hair/eye color, clothes, and facial structure are indicators that it's her.

Now am I going crazy, or does Omega in this picture look markedly older than she does in Season 2 and in other shots from the S3 trailer? Take this one.

Maybe it's just the angle and the expression being different, but the top Omega looks somewhat older to me, and not just because she's changed her hair. See how she comes up to the clone commando's elbow in this one?

In this shot, she has her haircut from the cockpit scene. It's tough because she's standing in front of him, but she might be taller relative to the clone commando in this shot. And her face looks different. I really think this Omega is older than the one in the second picture by a not insignificant amount. Which is deeply worrying, because our girl is a Boba Fett-type clone. She doesn't have accelerated aging.

There's one other shot in the S3 trailer that people think is her, and it's the one of the downed Nu-class shuttle.

From the little we can make out, it looks like the two figures limping away from the crash site are Crosshair (rightmost, under a pointy rock) and Omega (on the slope just under the front of the dorsal fin). The first shot of Omega with her new hair is in the cockpit of a ship, which looks like it could be from a Nu. I couldn't find any good pictures of the inside of a Nu's cockpit, but from the canopy/size it looks similar enough. A fan theory I've seen floating around for this scene is that this is the aftermath of Omega and Crosshair escaping Tantiss, with Omega's flying lessons paying off as they narrowly escape before being forced to crashland.

The last thing that's relevant from the trailer is Hunter's line that Omega's "been waiting for a long time." Hunter doesn't strike me as someone who speaks in hyperbole, so if he's saying it's been a long time, we're definitely talking months to years. If I'm right, Omega has been on Tantiss long enough to noticeably age by the time she escapes. With her being in the 10-13 age range at the beginning of the show, she's at an age where it doesn't necessarily take a really long time for her to start looking older, but this doesn't happen overnight either. I think we're talking at least a year, and very possibly more, since the end of Season 2 and the time she escapes.

In the shots we have of younger Omega in the trailer, we see her looking surprised to see Crosshair and staring sadly out a window. Older?Omega looks grim and determined as she is escorted through the Tantiss facility and flies a Nu-class shuttle before bailing out with the aforementioned Crosshair. I think she's definitely older and harder in these scenes, and the fact that it's been so long and she's changed so much is going to be some great angst when they rejoin the Batch.

I also think there's amazing fluff potential for Emerie bonding with Omega and doing her sister's hair, but I digress

I’m probably VERY delusional

But

What if it’s tech…

[starwarstbbfan]

[crosshairslongasslegs]

The Bad Batch S3 Trailer Part 4

Marauder arriving at a green planet.

(BTW, on Wookieepedia, this is Weyland)

Omega and Crosshair passing each other in the corridor.

Probably quite soon after she arrives, because her hair is the same.

Crosshair just looks wrecked. Maybe this is the first time he finds out Omega was captured, in spite of all he went through to prevent it.

Talking through some kind of grate. Doesn't seem to be a cell. Maybe Omega has found a way to slip into the vents, again. "I'm not giving up, and I won't let you give up either. You're my brother!"

"I'M. NOT. THEM!" 😭😭😭

Wrecker, Hunter and some dude with a pointy hat. Not a race of alien I recognize. Not sure of location.
