The Bad Batch STILL have an [almost] perfect mission record, people!
Okay, I keep seeing these posts where people are saying The Bad Batch keep failing their missions and never get paid. But this is not the case at all. Yeah, sometimes things go sideways, but they almost invariably do what they set out to do. Don't believe me? Let's do an episode by episode break-down.
Season 1:
Aftermath - The Bad Batch are sent by the Empire to kill "insurgents" but choose to let the refugees they find go because they are Republic citizens, including women and children. Mission: Rejected.
Cut and Run - The Bad Batch get Cut and his family off Saluecami safely. Mission: Success.
Replacements - The ship is damaged and crashes, but they recover the lost capacitor and fix the ship. Mission: Success.
Cornered - Fennec attempts to kidnap Omega, but the Batch recovers her and the ship is repaired. Mission: Success
Rampage - First mission from Cid. The Bad Batch is sent to recover Mochi, a rancor. Mission: Success.
Decommissioned - The Bad Batch is sent to recover a tactical droid. They CHOOSE to give it to the Martez sisters. However Tech copies the data on it, which was all they needed. Mission: Success.
Battle Scars - The Bad Batch set out to de-chip themselves, and despite the hiccup with Wrecker, they are all de-chipped. Mission: Success.
Reunion - Crosshair catches up with them, but they all escape relatively unharmed (even though Hunter is shot in the chest, he's fine). Omega is taken by Cad Bane. TBC.
Bounty Lost - The Bad Batch recovers Omega. Mission: Success.
Common Ground - The Bad Batch is sent to rescue Senator Singh from an Imperial occupation. Mission: Success.
The Devil's Deal - The Batch deliver weapons to Ryloth resistance and receive payment. Mission: Success.
Rescue on Ryloth - The Batch set out to rescue Hera's parents from prison. Mission: Success.
Infested - The Bad Batch steals spice and give it to the Pyke to get Durand out of Cid's parlor. Mission: Success.
War Mantle - The Bad Batch are sent to rescue Gregor. Mission: Success. Hunter is captured.
Return to Kamino - The Bad Batch go to Kamino to rescue Hunter. Mission: Success.
Kamino Lost - The Bad Batch have to escape Kamino before the Empire destroys it. Mission: Success.
Season 2:
Spoils of War - The Bad Batch are sent to retrieve a part of Dooku's war chest. TBC.
Ruins of War - Tech is injured, and they fail to retrieve the war chest. Mission: Failed.
The Solitary Clone - Crosshair is sent to kill a Separatist resistance leader. Mission: Success.
Faster - Tech wins a race. Echo and Hunter presumably deliver their nerf nuggets. Mission: Success.
Entombed - The Batch go to retrieve a treasure, which is actually the "on" button to a giant death machine. They choose to leave it there and destroy the machine so it can't be used to hurt anyone ever again. Mission: Rejected. (The treasure wasn't recovered, but I'd still call that one a win for the greater good and it was their choice to leave it, so I wouldn't call it a failure either).
Tribe - The Bad Batch rescue a Jedi Padawan and save a bunch of wookies from Trandosians. Mission: Success.
The Clone Conspiracy - The Bad Batch are absent this episode, but Rex saves Riyo Chuchi. Mission: Success (because it's always a win when we get to see our King).
Truth and Consequences - The Batch sets out to retrieve data that proves Rampart destroyed Kamino. Mission: Success (They did what they set out to do, even though Palpatine twisted the information to his advantage).
The Crossing - The Bad Batch sets out to mine Ipsium. Though their ship is stolen, they gain several extra vials of Ipsium from an even purer vein. Mission: Success.
Retrieval - The Batch Batch retrieve their ship and help liberate a bunch of kids from a corrupt master. Mission: Success.
