Random finale prediction:

Omega releases the Zillo Beast to cover her and the kids escaping from Tantiss.

Echo is with Emerie when this happens. Emerie is Very Worried about this unexpected turn of events. Echo, however, knows exactly who released the Zillo Beast. (Of course, it’s Omega. Who else would release such a dangerous beast to provide ample coverage?)

Eventually, Echo and Emerie find Omega and the kids among the chaos of Tantiss. The kids are understandably still scared about being able to get out successfully — and they’re worried about using what weapons Omega pilfered for them.

And Omega very kindly tells them, “It’s okay. I used to have trouble with weapons. Big lesson for using them today is — it’s all about tuning out distractions when you’re firing.”

Cue Echo getting teary and proud at hearing Omega pass along the same advice to the kids that he once gave her.

Echo is going to be a proud chaotic Domino and 501st ARC Trooper big brother when he realizes what Omega.

Emerie and the kids, not so much.

looking forward to it 💀

To be fair, how many of us can resist when Echo deploys his anime eyes and let his emotions show like that?

Echo pulling off his helmet to talk to Emerie has to be one of the top moments of the episode. He knows he can connect with her through emotion and it worked right away (don’t know if it’s a clone thing, and like a familial instinct or what but she instantly crumbled).

And man Emerie is so fucking doomed by the narrative, her poor face when Echo laid out all the horrors in front of her made me so sad.

Overall I think we’re getting the payoff we deserve next week. But at what cost, I’m not sure. I’m very ready to see Omega destroy that entire lab with a giant sea monster.

Oh boy, Echo is going to absolutely feral. When he connects with Omega during her escape with the kids, it’s going to be a bloodbath in there.

Emerie: we must free the children

Echo: childREN? as in plural???

[archivistofnerddom]

Well per usual Echo and Omega are the only ones getting shit done.

Echo: Infiltrate Tantiss and start collecting data.

Omega: Start scouting and making an escape plan.

Hunter, Wrecker, and Crosshair: Play hide and seek with stormtroopers and fight a cave bear.

Rampart: Screams.

Yup sounds about right.

Honestly, the guy with one hand and the child are their best options to be Tech’s backup.

Echo has his own ship (the Space Van). Omega was taught to fly by Tech (so you know she’s got an extensive knowledge of a large number of ships).

with tech dead, the batch's pilot options are:

guy with one eye who is afraid of heights

guy who seems to get headaches from electronics

guy with hand tremors

guy with one hand

child

rex help

*On a mission*

Crosshair: Uh, I think I got your lunch. *Holds up a note that reads: ‘I am very proud of you. Love, Hunter’* 

Omega: Oh yeah. I didn’t think this was for me. *Holds up a note that reads: ‘Be good. For the love of god, please be good.’*

Specifically, 501st clones canonically cannot lie for shit. (The Domino twins got it from their dad captain.)

One of my favorite pieces of canon continuity is that clones cannot lie for shit

On one hand, Rampart is giving a perfectly normal and expected response to the full-chested insane stunts that the Batch pulls regularly.

But . . . on the other hand, it’s Rampart, and I enjoy seeing this man getting the stuffing kicked out of him as he participates in Batch Shenanigans.

Hello I'm back on my bullshit.

[archivistofnerddom]

Tech would do that — and gleefully so. (He’s a little shit that way.)

Too bad Tech wasn’t around when Rampart was screaming Like That while jumping from the shuttle. He would’ve recorded it and put it on a loop, showed it to Omega on the ride back to Pabu, just constantly played it as a treat to all the clones the rat bastard wronged 😌💅🏽

Omega is going to release the Zillo to cause extra chaos during her second Grand Escape from Tantiss.

Hunter and Wrecker are going to be so proud of her for letting an old friend out. Echo and Crosshair are going to be even more worried about their sanity. (Tech would be so proud of her coming up with such a hilariously reckless plan on the fly.)

[archivistofnerddom]

Omega has come such a long way from starting food fights to defend the family honor. Now she’s coming up with new and fun ways of escaping from a secret Imperial science base while also rescuing adorable little kiddos (and possibly her clone brothers too). This feral ball of sunshine really has grown up so much and is such a badass of a compassionate sweetheart.

I’m so proud of her.

Late night conversations on the Marauder are buck wild, especially when Omega starts hitting hard with the philosophical topics.

Omega: What if trees cry when we're eating their fruit?

Omega: because fruit is basically their babies

Omega: so every time we eat an apple or something, we're eating a tree baby

Tech: We're eating their ovaries actually

Hunter, laying in bed, too fucking tired for this: please go to sleep

Omega: Tech, wake up.

Tech, groggily: What is it?

Omega: When butterflies fall in love, do they feel humans in their stomach?

Tech:

Omega:

Tech: Omega What

Absolutely random Rebels headcanon:

Rex and Kallus became really good friends because they both drink the darkest, most heavily caffeinated, sludgiest caf in the known galaxy — and they will turn into hissy feral cats who bite hands whenever someone tries to take said caf from them. (Hera tried once. She isn’t going to do that again.)

They are also the only ones who can make the kind of caf that they both like. Anyone else who tries to drink what they make winds up vibrating into another plane of existence after just one sip.

Shout out to Kallus' knees, probably sounds like someone opening a bag of chips when he stands up.
