* TookALevelInBadass: Being stranded and then helping bring down Mokko in the last two episodes has galvanized the Bad Batch, who let Cid have it about her lack of help when they needed it, and haggle her into giving them 50% of the profit from the next job she offers. Once she hangs up, the group makes clear they’re ready to leave her employ and only haven't yet because they want to part amicably, minimizing the risk that she rats them out in retaliation.

It's not really dirty work; both sides wanted the same outcome, it's just worse if the Empire succeeds

* DownerEnding: The Empire retrieves the cloned Zillo Beast (and may have more based on the arrival of several ships), and has taken the residents of the town attacked by it into custody, with Scorch implying that those that witnessed the beast will be executed. Lama Su has been brought to the lab, and spills the beans to Dr. Hemlock about Omega, putting Clone Force 99 back on the Empire's radar.
* DoYouWantToHaggle: Sid's idea of negotiating payment for her newest job is thirty percent, until Tech points out that's her default percentage anyway. She grudgingly ups to forty, then fifty when Hunter continues glaring at her.

** The entire village is rounded up simply because they were nearby when the Zillo Beast escaped, with the implication that anyone who saw it will be executed. Hemlock also orders the Bad Batch tracked down (without knowing it was them, specifically) because their gunship was there and remains a loose end.

* KilledOffscreen: The fate of the Clone Commando that the infant Zillo Beast grabs during the opening. If Tech's guess was accurate, the Beast also presumably ''ate'' the Commando.

* TheDogBitesBack: Lama Su isn't taking his predicament lying down, taunting Hemlock with the fact that if he fails to get Nala Se to cooperate, he's next in line for a cell. Hemlock doesn't lose his composure, but his brief pause shows he knows Lama Su is right.

to:

* TheDogBitesBack: TheDogBitesBack:
** A rare passive example; Nala Se adamantly refuses to aid the Empire's cloning programs. Since the Empire needs her expertise, she knows they won't kill her, so all they can do is keep her imprisoned while she insults Palpatine's cronies.

Added DiffLines:

* DramaticIrony: Hemlock orders the ship that escaped the Imperial round-up found, and from Lama Su, learns that finding and capturing Omega would be the best way to force Nala Se's cooperation; unknown to Hemlock, the two seemingly separate objectives amount to the same thing (finding the Bad Batch).

* WhamShot: A strand of goo falls on Wrecker. The Batch slowly point their lights at the ceiling… and alight on the unmistakeable jaw structure of the Zillo Beast. It gets followed up mere minutes later when the creature gets access to a generator and mutates into a form nearly identical to the one seen in the Clone Wars.

** Also, it's a creature that starts in one form as a larva, then grows and metamorphoses into a more familiar form over the course of the story. Just like [[Film/ShinGodzilla a recent movie starring its forebear]].
