Genuinely outside of a few exceptions and moments where they absolutely have to talk to other characters (ie Hunter, Wrecker, Echo, Rex, etc) to advance or resolve a plot point, it feels like Crosshair and Omega havenāt had a significant conversation with anyone besides each other this season and Iām finding myself increasingly frustrated with this ātotal isolation from the rest of the cast as a substitute for meaningful relationship developmentā approach as the story goes on.

Bad Batch Analysis prt2
Welcome back everyone to part 2 to my Bad Batch analysis trailers. The trailer just happened to be posted around midnight and my wifi went out in the morning so I couldnāt really do much until now. Since we got another AMAZING trailer for the Bad Batch series I believe itās time to do another analysis. If you havenāt read my first analysis from the first trailer you can read it hereĀ
Without further ado let's get started.Ā
The first scene we get from the trailer is a shot after that one shot we got from the first trailer. This could probably be around the time they landed on Kamino because if you look in the top right corner there is the Havoc Marauder.Ā
Training Sequence
Next we see one of the many training grounds on Kamino. Itās strange seeing only one training ground and not multiple. It seems like this specific training ground might be underwater, as there is this long pole in the center with surrounding lights around it. Now that might be a reach, but honestly where could you see that training ground on the round houses above the ocean.Ā
Along with that in the Legends there was a Kaminoan Jedi who lived under the sea to try to prevent the vision she had. (the vision was the clone army betraying the Jedi) So it could be possible when the Kamioanās were building the floating city they builded the bottom levels to be used as training grounds or something.Ā
In this scene we can see that Echo is using a vibroblade. Now is this Echoās own vibroblade or does this belong to Hunter and Echo just picked it up to destroy one of the droids?
I feel like this shot can tell us a lot about the bad batch and how they interact with each other. Hunter and Crosshair are looking at the camera to which I can probably assume where Tarkin speaks to them. Echo lightly turns towards the direction of Tech, Hunter, and Crosshair. Tarkin probably said something that would make Echo turn to look at the three of them.Ā
Also Tech although very subtle looks at the ground. Now this could be two things, if Tarkin said something then it might be tech looking at the ground like a Child does when their parents scolds them. Or it might be Tech is exhausted and is looking at the destroyed droids all around him.Ā
Hunter is seen talking to someone (probably Omega) telling them that their squad (aka the Bad Batch) is nothing but trouble. We can see Crosshair and Tech walk to a door which I can assume to be their barracks for the time being (before they escape).Ā
I really like this scene from Crosshair. This seemed to show how well the Bad Batch worked together. Hunter throws his knife in the air and Crosshair goes and shoots it in place. Which might make it even more sad if Crosshair betrays the Bad Batch. Imagine this, The bad batch is in this certain situation where a duo between Crosshair and Hunter would work. Hunter turns to where Crosshair would normally be.Ā
āCross lets-āĀ
All he sees no one, and the feeling of betrayal and pain seeps through him.Ā
āRightā¦āĀ
Hunter Civilian Clothing
So we see Hunter in Civilian clothes which is like. UGH please let me hold your hand Hunter. The first time we see them is at 0:31 where Hunter steals a speeder, probably to catch up to Fennec as we can see in 1:39 who has a kid.Ā
We get a better look at Hunterās Civilian clothes, it really reminds me of Cut lawquaneās outfit from The Clone Wars Season 2 āThe Desertersā. Maybe we might see Cut lawquane in the Bad Batch, if so I think that would be really great to see. Cutās children with Omega might be the cutest thing we might get from Bad Batch, thatās if it happens.Ā Ā
Now in this scene we see Tech piloting the ship, but if you look at the corner there is Hunter on a control panel with bandages wrapped around him. So this might be either Hunter getting injured from a mission (maybe from Fennec Shand??)
This kid (not Omega) is dangling onto a cylindrical object. The Following scene with Hunter and the kid following a speeder that belongs to Fennec Shand.Ā
The Final Part of the Clone WarsĀ
At 0:37 we see the Batchers coming down from what seems to be like a hill destroying B1 battle droids. While the next shot is Tech and Echo shooting down said droids.Ā
So in my previous analysis I mentioned how for one the explosions I was wondering if it was the Batchers or the Empire. Now with this new Trailer it seems to be leaning more towards the Batchers doing this.Ā
We see Hunter putting away his knife with Wrecker carrying what seems like to be a destroyed droid.Ā
Now I mentioned in my previous analysis that the snowy planet might be a Crosshair arc. But now with these new scenes with the snowy planet it might be a set up to Crosshair being something that most Bad Batch Stans donāt want.Ā
Crosshair as the traitor
So I know I talked about this in my last trailer analysis and I said this was very unlikely. But uhhhh now with this trailer I'm 70% sure Crosshair will betray the Bad Batch. Now the reason why I said Crosshair wouldnāt betray the Bad Batch was because the Purge trooper and Crosshair just didnāt have things that lined up. But now with this new trailer I am pretty worried for our boy Crosshair.Ā
This is the ONLY scene we get of Omega and Crosshair together. Any other scenes with Omega and the Bad Batch Crosshair is nowhere in sight.Ā
I literally called this when I wrote about my predictions about the Bad Batch series. Where I wrote two paths. One where Crosshair was not the traitor and stays with the bad batch and one if Crosshair was the traitor (I censor the right since it had my actual name since I did the bad batch analysis during school)
And 1:19 seems to likely prove my Crosshair is the traitor snippet I did. All the batchers + omega are running through what seems to be like the late night halls of Kamino. Who knew Echo would be following his brotherās footsteps.Ā
Again Crosshair isnāt hereĀ
ā¦ or maybe he might be hiding him behind Hunter to give us anxiety about what happened to Crosshair. But if Crosshair is gone then they need a new sniper to fill in his role...
Omega
We are first introduced to a new character who is called āomegaā.Ā Now who is Omega? Well we donāt know this is the first we EVER got to see them anywhere. Now when I first saw Omega I immediately thought of Satineās Mandalore. We are not talking about the houses and clans (like house Wren). Weāre talking about Satineās Mandalorians (the pacifist) in which when we see her people in the clone wars they are normally pale with light colored eyes. Omega almost fits that but without the bright blue eyes. Another thing is that Omega kinda sounds like they have a Satine Mandalorian accent. As I was listening to Omega speak I was comparing it to Korkie and his friends and Omega lowkey sounds like Korkieās friends but thatās probably a really big reach.
This is where I think if Crosshair betrays the Bad Batch this is where Omega would come in and take Crosshairās role as sniper. We donāt know how good Omega is but with Hunterās heightened sense his sight might be just as good to teach Omega to work with a bow and arrow
The Explosion
Now we have an explanation for the explosion we saw in the last trailer. It was definitely the bad batch and now we know it was part of the thrusters from a broken Venator Star Destroyer. Since now we got more context to that explosion, I believe that this will be on Bracca where maybe MAYBE we might see a young ginger Cal Kestis.Ā
Rex
*breaths in*Ā
REX I MISSED YOU SO MUCHĀ
Iām so happy Rex and Echo are going to a reunion. I really hope Rex and Echo have a moment where Rex completely vents to Echo about everything that happened. Like Umbara, how much Fiveās death took a toll on him, and when he left Jesse and his brothers during order 66. It would be really interesting to see if Rex has some sort of survivor's guilt. I know we see a little bit in Season 7 when heās talking to Cody about the Domino squad but after order 66 I think it would be nice to dwell onto a little more.Ā
Another thing I really hope we get to see how Rex meets up with Wolffe and Gregor.Ā
AT-ET Walker
We get a couple of scenes here of the AT-ET but here look at this. The republic symbol and the red paint is completely removed, itās completely bare (which is so boring). Another thing is that the AT-ET are completely cutting across a group of people, these could be protestors of something that we yet not know of.Ā
It seems like Hunter and Tech snuck into and AT-ET, now the next scene we get is an AT-ET blowing up another AT-ET. There are two possibilities on who shot at the AT-ET, one could be the Bad Batch themselves shooting at the other AT-ET or two it could be the Empire shooting at the Bad Batch stolen AT-ETĀ
Saw Gerra
Itās really nice to see Saw Gerra, we have seen him in 5 star wars projects (Clone wars, Rogue one, Rebels, Jedi Fallen Order, and now Bad Batch). Since this is the beginning of the Empire we get that small time between Clone wars and Jedi: Fallen Order to see what Saw was up to.Ā
Fennec Shand
My wifey, I love her so much. But I did get something wrong and right with Fennec Shand in my last analysis.Ā
First of all the explosion we see with Fennec Shand is NOT connected to the factory arc but instead connected to Hunter saving the kid.Ā
But the thing I did get right was that one scene where Fennec was holding a gun out. That fog is from a fight and Fennec and her opponent are at a standstill.Ā
One thing new about Fennec is that she had a Kid dangling off her speeder. First of all thatās not safe at all and 2 why does Fennec have a Kid with her and then why does Hunter have the child in the next scene?
Small theory but this kid might be just like Omega that escaped. Fennec is sent out to retrieve the kid but Hunter is like ānot on my watchā and takes the kid. Fennec looks shocked that Hunter interferes with her job and looks ANGY.Ā
Or this kid might be just some random kid that Fennec took.Ā
Now a recurring segment called Cool things I saw on the TrailerĀ
Just any scenes from the training scene with Wrecker is just cool and Iām like yes sir go off.Ā
I swear every scene with Wrecker is a joy to see. He just brightens my day all the time
Bad Batch are taking notes from Waxer and Boil about adopting kids during war times.Ā
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
This segment was short due to most of the trailer being analyzed and not much random spread out scenes.Ā
And thatās that! Thank you all who read this far, I hope I was able to make this clear enough for you all to understand. If thereās anything else you saw in the Trailer that I miss I would love for you to comment about it! I think iām going to do a countdown for Bad Batch, idk letās see how I keep this up.Ā
