* RippedFromTheHeadlines: The tsunami resembles the [[https://materchristi.libguides.com/natural_disasters/2004_Indian_Ocean_Tsunami Boxing Day Tsunami of 2004]], which killed nearly a quarter of a million people. Like that tsunami, this one begins with the trough of the wave followed by the peak, with the waters rushing away from the coast at great speed, beaching ships and fish, followed by the enormous peak destroying lives and property.

* ItBelongsInAMuseum: Phee is being serious when she insists she's a "liberator of ancient wonders". Some of the artificts she recovers aren't worth much, but are culturally significant to the people of Pabu.

* HiddenDepths: Phee, after past appearances had portrayed her as an pirate (albeit an affable one) only out for money and glory, is shown to have a good relationship with the peaceful refugees on Pabu, even giving Lyana a present.

Turns out some of the artifacts she recovers are of little to no monetary value, instead being culturally significant to the refugees on Pabu.

* ComicallyMissingThePoint: Phee tells the clones they need to get Omega some friends her own age who don't share her genes. Tech replies "We didn't have that. I don't see the purpose."

** Granted, this is because of the fact that Pabu went for so long without a large tsunami [[WeHaveBecomeComplacent that allowed for the populace to start building their town closer to the shoreline in the first place.]]

* BothSidesHaveAPoint: The Batch is right in that, as they live in a dangerous galaxy, Omega needs to know how to defend herself when in trouble (as the last season showed fairly well). However, Phee has a point in that Omega is still a child who needs at least a little stability in her life, along with friends her own age "who don't share her genetic profile".



* DidntThinkThisThrough: The attempt to end their business relationship on good terms having failed, the Bad Batch's alternate plan for cutting ties with Cid seemingly amounted to just ghosting her, without considering what they'd do if Cid [[ResignationsNotAccepted refused to accept this]] and/or sold them out.

Hence their allowing Phee to take them to Pabu.

* RidiculouslyCuteCritters: The moon-yos. They look like [[MixAndMatchCritters monkeys with the coloring of parrots]], and are nothing but adorable whenever they're seen.

* BreatherEpisode: This episode is largely one for the Bad Batch. Despite the tsunami, they are otherwise shown getting a chance to relax and unwind for a change. Also for a change, they decide at the very end to settle down and stay put for a while. The episode also acts as a breather for the audience, after the rather heavy previous episode.

Added DiffLines:

** TruthInTelevision; a lot of kids who grow up close to water are taught how to operate simple boats from a young age.


Added DiffLines:

* SceneryPorn: Pabu is a beautiful island city full of trees, flowers, gorgeous buildings, and surrounded by ocean. There are several shots dedicated simply to showing the city's beauty.
