So the opportunity to be on The Bad Batch was also just plain exciting for the actor | Hera also knows what the Imperial presence is and how they can exploit it |
---|---|
As she would find out, though The Bad Batch focuses on a gifted squad of clones and their young charge, Omega, following the end of the Clone Wars, this would be no mere cameo for Hera | They connected not just as younglings but as strategic minds determined to achieve the same goal |
Unlike The Clone Wars, The Bad Batch doesn't even wait several episodes for to kick in.
29The show does a great job of showing not only that, but the effect of the war on them | Learning that the refinery is under attack, Rampart orders Howzer to protect the capital, while ordering all the other squads to protect the refinery |

We barely noticed, because we were too busy enjoying what could have been the pilot of Young Hera | Rampart, clearly finishing the conversation, tells Howzer that he has his orders, but states that he has given another squad the task of finding Hera Syndulla |
Star Wars: The Bad Batch Disney+ We quickly see Hera arguing with Chopper about the fact that Hunter gave up, and about what they should do.
The Clone Wars were close to an end when Captain Rex first crossed paths with the motley crew | Seeing the groups hesitance to believe him, Howzer explains that he knows what the Empire is doing is wrong, and wants to help, but he cannot abandon his brothers |
---|---|
Heck, Howzer had more lines than Tech, who has more lines than Echo, who has even more lines than Wrecker | Even more unexpected was the return of Ahsoka's astromech droid, R7-A7, who had been destroyed at the end of the same season |
Crosshair, who does stay with the Empire, receives little spotlight from the story.
