Crosshair doesn’t have a chip in his system and with it taken out he still wants to work for the Empire but does the Empire still want him? In a series of stop-and-start chases through the underwater environment of Kamino, Kamino Lost saw Omega save Crosshair acting as the empath of the group as ever, and in turn, Crosshair save Omega as they were pulled to the watery surface of the planet towards the end of the episode. The character work in Kamino Lost was largely exceptional – the stuff with Crosshair especially.

After a very hit and miss first season we come full circle back to Kamino for the end of the prequel era aesthetics in Star Wars, one of the things about this season that has been successful has been the bridging of the gap between the prequels and the sequels in terms of narrative and now we’re seeing a roundabout pathway into the new environment for the characters – the last echoes of the old world for them are dead, Kamino is lost forever – and they’re more alone than ever before.

Too little too late, The Bad Batch gives us what it really should have been giving us all along, a focused, tight episode that gives us the Batch as actual characters rather than just as means to get cameos from more established Star Wars characters back for fans to go “hey, I know that character” - in the best episode apart from maybe the excellent Battle Scars, another high point of Season 1.
