Did The Bad Batch reveal one of Rex’s high-level contacts inside the Galactic Empire? On Eriadu, a group of high-ranking Imperial officers gathered for a summit with Governor Tarkin. Doctor Hemlock was there to give a report on his cloning program at Mount Tantiss, but what he revealed shocked everyone in the room. His use of decommissioned clone troopers as test subjects caused Admiral Coburn, who had served with the clones for years, to come to their defense. He made it clear that these warriors were loyal and did not deserve to be dismissed out of hand.
This puts Admiral Coburn in an interesting position. His sympathetic view towards clone rights is at odds with that of other Imperial officers, making him a prime candidate to provide intel to Rex’s resistance network. Interestingly, Coburn served with Commander Wolffe during the Clone Wars, who years later would go into hiding with Gregor and Rex on Seelos. So it’s entirely possible that Coburn is Rex’s man on the inside. - ภาพยนตร์และแอนิเมชัน
If i was Rex’s man inside i would have kept my point of view about clones to myself for safety
Its either him or wolffe tbh
I think next season they would recover Coburn before he gets discovered for aiding the Clone Resistance Cell and is reunited with Wolffe
@@haydenfowle7576 pretty sure this is the final season
@@LoveKovsupremacy ??
@@haydenfowle7576 no it's not. The 3rd season is the last.
Rex got hella contacts bro, Ahsoka freed the right clone
He got the connections
Can you blame her I think she liked him 😉
@@timalsept2854first of all, no, second of all still no, third of all you are shipping a child soldier and a clone that was (during the close wars) basically a child as well in an adult body (clones have rapid aging) and even if he was an actual adult during the clone wars (remember they are physically one age, and biologically another) then you are shipping an adult with a teenager, who almost definitely was underdeveloped mentally due to being taught he had to fight from the very beginning of his life. And don’t try and turn around and say “oh I’m shipping in rebels they’re both adults” you said she saved him because she liked him. She was at the oldest (by estimate) 18 (you know, STILL A CHILD) and even so, if you have to age them up to be able to ship them and it not being weird? That’s messed up. But noooo, if they talked to each other basically every day due to being… y’know part of the same army in a war, and we’re friends that means they must like each other definitely. And fourth of all, STILL NO
@@alixar_nullwomp womp
@alixar_null not that deep pal. It was a joke
Shame how basically everyone needed clones during the war, but as soon as it was over and the empire was formed, they where greatly abused and discarded.
Sound like every US vietnam and Desert Storm vet
That is how every war works. You need absolute animals to do what it takes but unfortunately there is no place for those animals in the peace afterwards. In a "decent" society they just have a hell of a time trying to adjust to peace after the ravages of war. In this case, as well as what they did in communism etc. which showcases the evil, you don't want the warriors that overthrew the govt to exist when the new govt is implemented. That way you don't have a battle proven war force ready to jump right back in and put you down because you are actually worse than what they just overthrew.
@@bradprice8040 that's bullshit. My grandpa was a Yugoslav partisan in WW2 and after the war like most veterans got from the communists education (the majority back then couldn't read or write, because it was a feudal monarchy), housing and jobs. They treated their soldiers good unlike US veterans
Sadly the clones were set up to suffer a slew of legislative, administrative, ethical and moral problems. Basically bred slave soldiers, with no other training or life to go back to after war. They were basically sprung on the republic; had the republic known they were coming 10 years ago, they would have had much more time to come up with legislation or administrations for this army.
They were abused during the war also. Men who are basically children trained their who life to fight in the war for a government they have no voice in. Almost zero chance at the family except for a few lucky ones. Treated like no more than a weapon. If only the jedi hadn't been so blind.
You know Hemlocks crazy when even some other high ranking imperials thinks his experiments are unethical
I agree with that, imagine how out there his thinking is even to their evil intentions 🤔
I really like that the other high ranking imperials thought Hemlock’s experiments were bad. It goes to show that not everyone in The Empire was bad or evil. It personifies The Empire more.
That is honestly a great theory
I always liked coburn he was definarly chill and treated clones like actual men
To the people who think he would make himself look suspicious siding with the clones, remember he'd always been like this. I'd be more alarming to the Empire if he suddenly didn't do that anymore, because it would be an indication that he desperatly tries to hide his sympathy for the clones.
It wouldn’t be alarming
So you're basically saying he's not a very good inside man no matter how you cut it?
I like to think Andor was a turning of a corner for how intellectually Star Wars writers write their characters, so I don’t believe a “man on the inside” would be stupid enough to openly support the clones to Tarkin’s face in a post Andor Star Wars show.
Don't expect too much, Filoni is writing this, and he tends to be very straightforward and bluntly obvious with his storytelling, rather than being particularly subtle
True, but many commanders were sympathetic to clones. Some more than likely voiced their opinions on the matter of their use to Tarkin and other Imperial High Command but were probably talked out of it or convinced to embrace the change
@@edwardaverros3028 I mean its designed that way for a reason. As these shows are meant older kids and teenagers, but also cater to a young adult audiance so its a difficult show to make.
@@themeddite2935 No they are not young adult oriented lol. The critical thinking required is teen level at best.
@@TheCursedCat1927 When they said "post-Andor", they meant as a story released after Andor's airing in September 2022.
(however, they might be under the presumption that TBB Season 2's writing was after Andor's release - animations tend to require the scripts to be locked down as the animation process require a long lead time)
Just because this guy isn't a complete monster doesn't mean he's a mole lmao
Yeah, many people really don't get that.
They think: "Empire = evil, so anyone working for the Empire must also be evil".
And by that logic anyone who isn't evil isn't working for the Empire.
It's very simple logic, but also completely wrong.
I'm just glad this style of animation is still being used for The Bad Batch and if we get another animated show or heck even a lil movie or something that it'll be in this same style of animation. Makes it actually feel like Star Wars
I believe it’s more likely to be Wolffe and Coburn is giving intel to Wolffe while Wolffe passes it on like a like of information
after season 3 it can not be Wolffe
Yeah I honestly think wolffe is as wolffe is close to aural cobern so he would know of the meeting
This is the reason I was so fascinated with the Bad Batch #99. Thank you for that piece of info. 👍
I think this is definitely possible! I also think Wolfe might be the contact or one of many contacts. Rex did say more clones are starting to wake up. Maybe Wolfe is like Cody where his chip is wearing off and he's starting to question things about the Empire. But unlike Cody, he hasn't been able to desert yet so he's maybe feeding Rex information. Then we'll see Wolfe's defection and rescue in Bad Batch season 3!
Or Wolffe’s already with Rex and escaped during Order 66
Wolffe will be the Bad Batch we received confirmation
Finally a reasonable and actual fan theory THAT MAKES SENSE!!!!!
Overseeing clone extraction on galactic scale is not an easy thing. And the Imperial still don't know that the clone liberators is a "dead" clone. This is supposed to be Cody's thing and Rex is good at it.
A lot of people are commenting that if he was an imformant, then he shouldn't have given away his sympathies. But he has a lot of power so he wouldn't really be afraid of others of similar rank, but more importantly is that he would be entirely betraying his own motives if he didn't push back there. Like if he just says nothing they could have just ended the clones right there and then
It’s not the end of the clones
I enjoyed that Coburn stood up for the clones. He trusted and respected them. Plus, this could lead into Wolffe being part of this story.
I reckon Wolffe will be the secret imperial contact
coburn was plo koon’s admiral so he’d know wolffe maybe thats how he got his inhibitor chip out.
@@aidanwanner3585
Wolffe's squadron took out Plo Koon, so I don't see that being the way he got rid of it.
Especially since we see Wolffe has PTSD from it in "Rebels."
It's far more likely that Wolffe will get it removee by others, like Rex or maybe Echo.
They confirmed Wolffe’s return in season 3. They’re ending it with a banger!!
Because of the hologram being in the way I thought he was Admiral Yeralan, glad someone showed me a picture of who the guy actually is, now I recognize him.
Ans thee is a confirmation that Wolf will appear at bad batch
Does this mean we’ll get Spaarti cloning cylinders?
Interesting theory, but at the same time I think that his point of view was widely shared among commanders. So wide that Palpatine couldn't disregard all of them and had to elevate some of them, their usefulness for establishing a new era is too much compared to their possible weakness for the clones.
There is no way he already is a spy. He might at some point become one but absolutely not at this point
😮 That's a good idea
The Empire is bound to have many high-ranking officers who (like in the Senate) wish to see the Republic restored, as many likely joined the Grand Army to not just bring back order to the galaxy, but also prove that the Separatists were wrong. With the Empire becoming everything the Separatists feared, there are bound to be many honorable military leaders who want to correct this.
Sad that they were unaware that they started a clone rebellion just by having Tarking use bad batch instead of others.
I think I know who are all of the Rex's resistance network. So I believe were: Slip,Riyo Chuchi,Gregor,Wolffe,Coburn and the last Emerie Karr.
The only thing about Coburn being Rex’s contact is that he could have just told Rex and the Batchers where Hemlock’s base was.
I would love if that's true because I always wanted to see one of the admirals from the clone wars be loyal to the clones and Jedi they served with, even after order 66 and the defense recruitment bill
That's actually an interesting theory!
That's no Rex. That's Altaïr İbn-la'ahad
dam bro a fellow AC fan you know these days peopol think all single player games are trash
Yea you don't say, sometimes you need to get away from the toxicness of the multi-player era
Or Wolfe hasn’t been decommissioned, yet, and is still serving with Coburn and he is Rex’s contact.
Bunch of clones still served during that time, so Wolfe is never getting decommissioned, he’d just escape.
interesting theory
I like that he defended his true beliefs versus lying.
However, he could have not expressed his concerns and did his thing.
Possible but not likely
this makes a lot more sense now that we know Wolffe is gonna be in the final season
That could be really interesting I could see that being a thing we could see him defect and join the rebel's
I find it hard for this be true because that meeting they are all in besides talking about Hemlock’s project is also talking about the Death Star. If that was true, then how did coburn not inform rex of the death star therefore informing the rebel alliance when it would come into play?
Coburn could be the reason for Wolffe to defect. Because once Wolffe learns a superior whom he's often worked with and who he trusts, he might begin supporting Rex' ideals more.
That guys character design reminds me of commander Sato, I think your right
I think Coburn just didn’t want to throw away useful soldiers, kind of like Gibbs from NCIS once said, “you don’t waste good”
nah rex’s contact is probably woffle
IT WAS HEMLOCK ALL ALONG!!!🔥🔥
It could’ve also been Scorch but a man can only hope
I honestly think this is just a bait-and-switch.
As much as Cobern seems to be "the spy" - I wouldn't be surprised if it's actually Wolffe himself.
And given how Cobern and Wolffe basically work 1:1, he would know practically everything that Admiral does.
Makes sense when you consider coburn served along side wolf and plo koon.
It had to be Cody. He had no intention of blindly serving the Empire any longer and wanted to defect.
Surely the Empire would hunt him down for treason.
Whats with Yularen? Would be logic too. He stayed with the Empire, but i imagine he does not like how things are done.
I wish Tech still alive in Bad Batch😢😢
Would love that!
I wish they would redeem yularan and make him his contact
Is been confirmed Wolfie was not involved of anything and has unaware that rex survive order 66 so it's unlikely he has not do that admiral as he's a imperial pig
A sound theory
I honestly can see that happenening.
How did I not pick up on that 💀
CommanderWolffe!
I think it's the female clone that works with hemlock because echo says a group of CLONES
I’m still going with Scorch
Good point!
This is what I hope I’ll see in the final season, final episode
The bad batch head to the facility with their mission to rescue omega AT ALL COSTS! Omega learns how to let go. All the clones in the facility die just to get omega out of there. Then all the bad batch die off with hunter leading omega to the shuttle. When she leaves, vader kills hunter.
Am I the only one who thinks he looks like that droopy cartoon dog. Like I have expected him to look at the camera and say something depressing in a high pitch cartoon voice
Is that really Admiral Coburn in the Bad Batch?
Yes it is
I actually thought the same thing.
Tex looking like an assassin
Omg u right lil bruv
Mount tantis if it’s anything like legends is a huge imperial insider deal. He is extremely close to palpatine or thrawn to know that
Would wolf now be another man on the inside? He did let them go but maybe also he give him intel
If I was Rex’s guys I would have openly expressed extra disregard or hatred for the clones. Give them no reason to suspect me
I'd honestly like Yularen to be their asset too 🙂
I thought the same thing when I saw this episode, it'll be really cool to see if this theory is true.
Oh crap, Coburn. He served during the ryloth campaign, I think
Cool
Ether that or it’s wolf we know what trailers are like it’s possible that scene we see him where he’s with tks one clone and a clone commando that it’s just a front maybe they get put in a cell and when those ones have left wolf reveals himself as the inside guy but saying that I don’t think a commander is a high rank in the empire so it probably is your theory won’t be long till we find out
He’s too obvious to be the mole, if there was an internal investigation on who is helping rebels and clones this guy would be the first suspect
Probably will never be revealed in season 3
Maybe admiral coburn will tell Rex and the bad batch where mount tantiss is.
omg, ISB should apprehend the bloke right away then. So it is treason then
Yeah quite a interesting theory it does check out I mean I thought you seen him as a Imperial in the New Hope but I guess not all though it is odd he didn't yet tell anyone about the Death Star project but a way to explaining that is he's a double agent.
so..
we now have a canon mount tantiss?
how did i not realize that smg
Season 2 of Bad Batch
The older female clone for sure
I want to see Colburn kick Imperial ass if he has his Arquitens I want to see some hit and runs.
Rex’s inside contact is Darth Vader of course
That would be so fitting if he was part of the cause
what if coburn, and a large number of imperial clones are anti imperial, biding their time?
The ending was so sad.
niceee i was wondering who that imperial was
I waa hoping it would bw yularen
Common w coburn
What if his inside man is yularen? I know he was with the empire all the way up until his death on the Death Star but what if he was the guy Rex had contact with? They did serve with anakin on the same ship together
Or Wolffe could be the man on the inside, and coburn is giving intel to Wolffe instead of coburn giving it directly, which could result in disciplinary action for him
Is Rex in contact with Ahsoka and the Rebel Alliance at this point I wonder
Being a bro is never ending job. It’s truly a promise
He was a naval officer in the republic correct? i remember him being quite fond of their accomplishments
i think the contact is Omega’s sister
And to think I was assuming it was a younger agent kalus, silly me
NGL When I First Saw This I Thought Assassins Creed.
What if Wolffe is in the Imperial military and is actually feeding information to Rex from Coburn
I hate Hemlock with a burning passion for good reason
