The Bad Batch Episode 4 "Cornered" Synopsis

Series Created by:  Jennifer Corbett, Dave Filoni

Episode Written by: Christian Taylor

Story Editor: Matt Michnovetz

Episode Directed By: Saul Ruiz

On the run from the new Galactic Empire, Hunter decides on a new destination for the Bad Batch, the uninhabited planet of Idaflor. A perfect hideout for the team. But, now cut off from the Republic, the ship needs fuel, the team is out of rations, and the Imperial comm chatter has their ship signature. Tech proposes they make a pit stop on the planet Pantora where they can stock up and he can scramble their ship’s signature.

Wrecker and Tech pay credits for the silence of Raspar 6, the Sullustan Depot manager at the Pantora Spaceport, but for even more credits he reveals the Bad Batch’s location to Bounty Hunter Fennec Shand who is on a mission to recover Omega from the team.

While Wrecker and Tech repair the Havoc Marauder; Hunter, Omega and Echo disguised as a robot enter the city to resupply. They have to complete the mission quickly as the population is celebrating the end of the war as new Clone Troopers, marching through the street, arrive at their new posting. Hunter (temporarily) exchanges Robot Echo for the Imperial credits they need and Echo becomes a droid supervisor for a group of astromechs at the shop. As he bargains with the shop owner, Omega wanders off to chase down her new toy and is separated from Hunter. 

Fennec poses as a helpful passerby to abduct Omega while she’s on her own. Hunter tracks and frees Omega from Fennec’s clutches in a chase high above the streets of Pantora and they return to the Havoc Marauder. 

Fortunately, with the help of Echo’s new team of astromech repair droids, that he frees from their restraining bolt, the Bad Batch are ready to escape the planet just in time. But Fennec Shand reassures her employer that she will capture her target.
