This episode actually managed to be interesting and engaging, probably because the bad (lame) batch are put on the back burner. This episode focuses on Rex and his group of rebel clones after they capture a clone assassin sent to kill senator Singh (the guy the bad batch rescued earlier in the show) while he had been meeting with senator Chuchi about trying to unite planets to oppose Palpatine's rule. Rex and his group can't get anything out of the clone assassin but find that he has a target list of both the senator and Omega so they call in the bad batch to inform them that the empire is hunting after Omega again (shouldn't they already know that?). When they show up, Howzer is really upset that Crosshair is there, which is understandable since Crosshair got most of Howzer's men killed and him locked up. Eventually another clone assassin is sent to find the first one and finds Rex's base but also spots Omega so he calls in for backup. The rest of the episode is essentially just Rex, Howzer, Nemec, and the bad batch trying to escape from the assassin hunting them down. It's also revealed that the clone assassins going through "conditioning" and have their identifications wiped. Howzer thinks that Crosshair is holding back information and it turns out he was right, as Crosshair reveals that the empire tried to make him an assassin but he was too "defective". The end of the episode shows imperials shuttles flying toward the planet and it's shown that Wolfe is leading the mission, so it'll be interesting to see what happens next.
Overall, we finally get a decent episode. It wasn't anything amazing but compared to the last 5 episodes, at least SOMETHING is happening. We're getting an expansion on just what Rex and his group are doing, with him even telling Omega that she will probably be vital in finding Tantiss (eyeroll) which means that freeing the clones from Tantiss will likely be the bad batch's final mission, like I predicted. We also learned a little bit about growing rumors in the galaxy that Palpatine is worried about his rule being challenge so that's cool too. Hope the next episode keeps this up.
