![]() ![]() The two really did grow in this episode, with Tech taking the biggest leap in beginning to understand that the world is no longer 1’s and 0’s, and that as a member of a family, he has to be better at handling the highs and lows of being a part of one and loving someone. ![]() Through his special abilities, and his years in war, he’s become even more hardened and matter-of-fact than his brothers, so it was informative to watch him struggle with Omega’s emotions and how to handle them, while also seeing him grow with his own just a bit due to her. Tech is a character I’d assume many males can identify with thanks to how men are mostly taught to bury their emotions and approach the world as pragmatically as possible. Tech has always felt like a protocol droid, the organic version of a C-3P0, albeit with courage and bravery, so seeing him have to grapple with his programming per se while dealing with a kid’s emotions was quite enlightening. Tech really was the star of this episode, even if he at first came off as very cold and lacking empathy for Omega’s emotional response to Echo leaving. She clearly is devastated and not getting the type of comfort she needs from her battle hardened brothers, which allowed for some insightful character development to take place between her and Tech. The loss of Echo has undoubtedly affected the clones more than they’re willing to admit outside of Omega. ![]() Now that doesn’t mean that the Batch’s adventures in a cave looking for minerals was overly thrilling and water cooler worthy either, but if you’re here for character development, Episode 9 delivered in spades, most notably with Tech and Omega. After last week’s 2-part midseason slappers, fans of The Bad Batch may have felt a bit underwhelmed with The Crossing, and that is understandable, but this episode is far from filler and can’t be described as standalone either thanks to its cliffhanger ending. ![]()
