The two parties of the Batch try to fight their way back to each other as Wilco's troops close in.
Tropes:
- All for Nothing: After a lot of near death experiences, a lot of internal arguing on what they should do with it, and Tech breaking his leg, the Batch fail to get even a single piece of the war chest. Worse still is that Rampart now knows the Batch survived the Kamino bombardment.
- Bad Boss: Rampart follows Imperial precedent, condescending Wilco for not having all of the lost treasures back before executing him for simply being willing — even determined — to tell the truth about the Batch's survival.
- Call-Forward: Tech's leg gets fractured after being crushed by falling crates, similar to what will happen to Nemik during the Aldhani heist about fifteen years later. Tech fares better than Nemik, however.
- Company Cross References: Omega attempts to get her bag full of Dooku's treasure that has fallen further down the unstable cargo container, but Echo persuades to her to "let it go," similar to how Henry Jones Sr. told Indiana to let the Holy Grail go in Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade.
- Death by Irony: Wilco is killed by Rampart because he's too much of a good soldier following orders, especially in regards to submitting accurate reports.
- A Father to His Men: Wilco is seen checking on his fallen troopers after Wrecker's rampage, his helmet removed to show the distraught look on his face.
- Handicapped Badass: Tech's leg is fractured by a falling crate, but that doesn't stop him from limping to the cargo container and taking out a squad of Clone Troopers who have a mounted blaster cannon. He collapses after succeeding, but he got all three of them. He follows that by using the mounted cannon to shoot down a gunship and drive off the reinforcements.
- He Knows Too Much: When Captain Wilco refuses to falsify an official report that Clone Force 99 survived the bombardment of Tipoca City, Rampart murders him in cold blood to cover up the truth and protect his career, as he had previously reported to Tarkin that they were dead.
- Insistent Terminology: Romar Adell repeatedly reminds Tech that he's Serennoan, reminding us that the Separatists, despite being demonized by Republic propaganda, were just as much victims of Palpatine's plans as the Republic was.
- Irony: Ever since Order 66, the Empire has wanted unblinkingly loyal clones who follow orders. When Wilco refuses to bend the rules and help cover up the Batch’s survival, Rampart executes him on the spot.
- Karmic Jackpot: Tech helping Romar repair his datacore comes in handy later when the old man comes to his rescue.
- Know When to Fold 'Em: Omega tries her best to recover at least some of the war chest from the cargo container, but Echo convinces her that it isn't worth potentially dying over.
- Major Injury Underreaction: Tech is characteristically technical and deadpan when reporting on his fractured femur.
- No One Could Survive That!: Rampart believes, not unreasonably, that the Batch had died in the destruction of Kamino, and that's what he reported to Tarkin. He's quick to cover up the news of their survival.
- Shout-Out: Two to the Jurassic Park franchise. At the beginning of the episode, Tech, Echo and Omega are tossed around in the falling container and at risk of being crushed by debris inside, like the humvees in The Lost World: Jurassic Park. It's followed up by Echo noting "we haven't fully landed yet" and "we still haven't landed yet", paraphrasing Alan Grant in Jurassic Park III.
