One more episode to go? There seems to be a lot of plot threads remaining. I don't know how they'd fit that all into a good ending unless the last episode is 1.5h long.
I guess Hunter knew Omega did the logical choice. He still looked angry at Crosshair though, but he knows he can't blame him.
Yeah this one is probably my least favorite of the season so far. This basically brought us back to the same situation a few episodes back and now they have to talk to...
Actually, the ending is also pretty ambiguous about her force sensitivity. I have the impression that Ventress was lying.
None of the tests she gave were tests for force sensitivity in canon. They looked like tests a master would give to a prospect to see if they would be fit to be trained...
It was a bit dark for me too (LG CX set to HDR). A side effect of this is that it's hard to see which clone is which, which sort of adds to the chaos of what was going on for me in a positive way.
I was thinking it could be Tech, but Crosshair said they could not condition him when they tried because he was defective. Tech might not be susceptible to the conditioning as well.
I'd argue when viewed over the season, even the "filler" episodes add to character development and later reveals too. The racing episode for example foreshadowed Cid's later betrayal of the team.
I think it shows more about the shortcomings of the Empire that would lead to its eventual downfall. Basically they thought they could force her to compliance just by fear alone (threat to Omega). It's pure arrogance on the part of the Empire and I like that they depicted this that way...
Yes, but this is like Thanos caring for Gamora. Fisk's concept of caring does not equate to how normal humans think of caring for other people. I think this is him caring for her much in the same way you'd care about a thing you own.
Which I think adds to this IMO. He is capable of learning...
Actually, I like that he didn't learn sign language. It shows that he didn't particularly care enough to learn it for Maya. He only cared enough for her to use her.
