Clone Wars Episode Guide- Bad Batch Season Two

This is getting out of hand.
I didn't expect a bonus season and two spin offs when I started this.
I was cheating to use the lists I'd written to help teen aged Anabelle pick which Clone Wars episodes she'd watch. 

She watched all of Rebels anyway, and doesn't watch this new show.

Oh well, only one more season to go after this one, can't stop now...

Bad Batch Season 2- Jan 4, 2023 to March 29, 2023

1 "Spoils of War"
2 "Ruins of War"
Cid (A green, lumpy, alien Rhea Perlman if you forgot) tells the gang about a huge haul from Dooku's war funds. A lot of racing and chasing happens, and the Batch runs into Imperials we know from last season and the movies, but they don't get the money.

3. 
"The Solitary Clone'' 
Crosshair goes on an Imperial Rescue Mission with Cody (Woo!!!). Cody starts to realize the Empire may be a bad thing when the guy they rescue orders the killing of unarmed people and taking over the planet. Crosshair is still stupid.

4. "Faster
Tech proves he's as good at "Not-Podracing" as Droid racers are to help out Cid. One of many people tell the gang not to trust her.

5. "Entombed
A treasure map! Another fortune guaranteed!  Nope, the valuable looking thing activates a Kaiju that nearly kills everyone. Oh, and good hearted scoundrel lady Phee hits on Tech.

6. "Tribe"
Gunji, the Wookie Padawan survived the purge! Woo! Any day on Kashyyyk is a good one!

7. "The Clone Conspiracy" 
8.  "Truth and Consequences"
Senator Chuchi is back!  Captain Rex is back! Woo! 
The Empire is trying to get rid of the Clones and bring in conscripts. Much less "woo."
(Especially since the movies show us they succeeded.)
Echo joins Rex's team to help the Clones.

9. "The Crossing"
10.  "Retrieval"
Cid sends the Batch to mine a valuable but highly explosive ore. There are many explosions, including almost them multiple times. 
While waiting for Cid to reluctantly come get them, they stumble into "Space Oliver Twist."

11."Metamorphosis"
The Emperor's cloning plans begin to burble to the surface. Kaminoan Nala Se returns. Cid sends the gang to get a thing from the Empire. It's a baby of the Godzilla thing from Season 2.
Mayhem ensues 

12. "The Outpost"
Crosshair gets assigned a crap detail with other Clones the Empire is treating crappily. He finally figures out the Empire sucks, shoots his superior in the face, and is captured and brought to the new cloning place.

13. "Pabu"
The Bad Batch decides to listen to everyone and walks out on Cid. They go to the island the good hearted scoundrel lady hitting on Tech lives on, helps them deal with a tsunami, and realize it's a great place to retire. I'm sure they'll be fine.

14. "Tipping Point"
All the plots (Chuchi, Rex and company, the Bad Batch, Crosshair) move towards learning about the new Empire Cloning project.

15."The Summit"
16. "Plan 99"
The Gang tries to infiltrate the big Empire meeting about cloning and stuff. Saw Gerrera does too. A bunch of stuff blows up, Echo gets captured, and someone seems to die (but I don't believe it). The lady at the cloning place also turns out to be a clone. This is a huge shock, unless people have been paying any attention at all this season.

One left to go!
