* FailureHero: In the Order 66 arc, thanks to it being a ForegoneConclusion. He fails to save Tup and expose the conspiracy, gets his life ruined as his friends and allies are convinced he's become a deranged fugitive, and he ultimately dies having accomplished nothing. This is later downplayed as his ramblings allow Rex to hesitate for a few seconds before executing the Order on Ahsoka, and Ahsoka later removes Rex’s chip after realizing Rex’s hint about the chips. This leads to Ahsoka and Rex surviving Order 66 after faking their deaths, with Ahsoka becoming a founding member of the Rebellion and Rex helping two other clones who removed their chips.

** It's left unknown why he didn't attack Obi Wan as the latter was a Jedi. His broken speech might indicate the clone might be too drunk to recognize Obi Wan. On the other hand, he looked at Obi Wan with sadness indicating that the inhibitor chip that made him compliant to Order 66 no longer works and he didn't want to attack him.

** He apologizes to Ahsoka for shooting her during practicing against opponents who are more competent than Battle Droids, though when Order 66 is issued, he's intentionally shooting at her with no apologies.



* OOCIsSeriousBusiness: Just to demonstrate how much of a stranglehold Order 66 has over the clones, [[spoiler:the brainwashed Jesse becomes the very antithesis of the man he used to be. He starts referring Rex as CT-7567 (something he despises Krell for doing), sees nothing wrong with executing his fellow brother without court martial (despite being previously horrified by it under General Krell), and [[MurderArsonAndJaywalking lacks his signature humor]]]].
