Last week, in <em>The Bad Batch<\/em> Episode 10, we observed how one lone senator resisted Imperial occupation. Now we witness what happens when a senator with far less noble characteristics hands his people and his planet to the Empire willingly.<\/p>\n<p>Senator <strong>Orn Free Taa<\/strong> was a frequent face in <strong><em>Star Wars: The Clone Wars<\/em><\/strong><em>.\u00a0<\/em>The greedy Twi\u2019lek was one of the first politicians to throw in with Chancellor Palpatine, and he was standing next to the dictator when he declared himself Emperor in <strong><em>Revenge of the Sith<\/em><\/strong>. It was <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.starwars.com\/video\/so-this-is-how-liberty-dies\">Taa\u2019s\u00a0applause that killed liberty<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>In <em>The Bad Batch <\/em>Episode 11, Orn Free Taa remains a glutenous creature, eagerly encouraging his people to lay down their arms and accept Imperial rule. The Twi\u2019leks gather at his balcony and meet Taa\u2019s words with hisses, but they silence when <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/general\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"3\" title=\"General\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">General<\/a> Cham Syndulla appears by his side. Cham was a Clone Wars hero, and his actions always supported his vow. If he tells the people to lay down their arms, they will.<\/p>\n<p>We know that making nice with the Empire will only last so long. <strong><em>A New Hope<\/em><\/strong> is on the horizon, and Ryloth will be one of the first Outer Rim planets to resist Palpatine\u2019s galactic grip. In <strong><em>Star Wars<\/em>: <em>Rebels<\/em><\/strong>, the animated <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/watch-movies-tv-seriess\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"8\" title=\"Watch Movies &amp; TV Series\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">series<\/a> that bridges the prequels to the original trilogy, we learn that Cham and his wife, Eleni, ignited this rebellion against the Empire. And in the process, Eleni died, forever altering Cham\u2019s relationship with his daughter <strong>Hera<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>But in <em>The Bad Batch<\/em> Episode 11, this dark history is their unstoppable future. We, their audience, can do nothing but watch and whimper. For most of \u201cDevil\u2019s Deal,\u201d Cham goes along with Orn Free Taa and Admiral Rampart. He can sense a terrible fate, and considering they just survived a nightmare, he\u2019s not eager to jumpstart another one.<\/p>\n<p>What he can\u2019t know is that it\u2019s not a case of one nightmare leading into another. It\u2019s all one long nightmare, carefully plotted by Palpatine. Cham is too entrenched. He can\u2019t see what little options he has. The former \u201c<a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/starwars.fandom.com\/wiki\/The_Hammer_of_Ryloth\">Hammer of Ryloth<\/a>\u201d reluctantly sheds his legendary war-born status.<\/p>\n<p>Hera, however, charges forward with youthful zeal. The <em>Rebels<\/em> heroine has a destiny too. And she knows it and does not fear it. She sides with her uncle, who recognizes her desire to pilot starships as a skill to harness. Alongside <strong>Chopper<\/strong>, another <em>Rebels<\/em> icon, Hera gathers intelligence regarding the Imperial refinery scarring the Ryloth landscape.<\/p>\n<p>Watching Hera and Chopper collaborate in <em>The Bad Batch<\/em> Episode 11 is a dang delight. Cats like Luke Skywalker and Princess Leia will walk in their footsteps. These two refuse to fall in line and allow fear and its mongers to set their path. Right now in <em>The Bad Batch<\/em>, they\u2019re locked on Ryloth, but her starship, the <em>Ghost<\/em>, awaits.<\/p>\n<p>Eventually, a small band of resistance fighters will form around them. The <em>Ghost<\/em> will carry Kanan Jarrus, the Jedi padawan who escaped Order 66 as seen in <em>The Bad Batch<\/em> Episode 1. She and Kanan will grow close, fall in love, and sire a son, Jacen Syndulla. Their romance is bound by Grand Admiral Thrawn\u2019s downfall, equally tied to the Empire\u2019s destruction.<\/p>\n<p>On the <em>Ghost<\/em>, Hera will also inspire Ezra Bridger, the young Jedi who vanishes into hyperspace with Thrawn and a half-dozen space-whales during <em>Rebels<\/em>\u2018 climax. And, as we learn in <strong><em>The Mandalorian<\/em><\/strong>, Ahsoka Tano is hunting Thrawn, probably hoping to reunite with Bridger. Countless soldiers fight the war between the Dark Side and the Light Side, one resistance fighter inspiring the next.<\/p>\n<p>The <em>Star Wars<\/em> prequels reveal how heroes (and villains) stand on the shoulders of many. Teenage Hera senses Imperial injustice. Her parents wish her no harm, but when her mom learns of her refinery spying, she encourages Hera to tell all. Eleni\u2019s strength in the face of tyranny emboldens Hera, which plants her on her uncle\u2019s military supply run, where she comes face-to-face with Clone Force 99 and their kid sidekick, Omega.<\/p>\n<p>Hera and Omega\u2019s meeting is the highlight of <em>The Bad Batch <\/em>Episode 11. The two younglings are both so eager to prove their worth. Hera\u2019s immense jealously over Omega\u2019s starship-living is adorable and telling. Hera will get there soon; she\u2019ll house her own bad batch aboard her <em>Ghost<\/em>. In Omega, she catches a glimpse of what\u2019s to come. It\u2019s a future married with happiness and tragedy. We can\u2019t help but be both excited and sorrowful for her to reach that destination.<\/p>\n<p><em>The Bad Batch<\/em> Episode 11 ends with her uncle\u2019s supply run being foiled by Clone Force 99\u2019s ex-comrade, Crosshair. Admiral Rampart puts Hera in chains, forcing her father to draw against the Empire. His insurgence is ignited, a road that leads to his wife\u2019s murder and his daughter\u2019s estrangement. And that estrangement puts her on the <em>Ghost<\/em>, leading the resistance fighters who achieve what Cham never could.<\/p>\n<p>The credits hit on a cliffhanger, but it\u2019s easy to infer what\u2019s coming next, in <em>The Bad Batch <\/em>Episode 12. Hera once mentioned in <em>Rebels<\/em> how Clones saved her life. We never got the details of that story, but we can bet that those clones were Clone Force 99. Next week, it will be Omega and Hunter to the rescue.<\/p>\n<hr\/>\n<p><strong><em>Star Wars: The Bad Batch<\/em> Episode 11 is now <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.disneyplus.com\/video\/9e08c288-ba6b-44e1-8369-e5b7e3422592\">streaming on Disney+<\/a>.<\/strong>\n<\/div>\n<blockquote><p><strong><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\">If you liked the article, do not forget to share it with your friends.
