Why Tech is Actually ALIVE - The Bad Batch Season 2

in the bad batch finale, tech fell to this death after sacrificing himself for his brothers and omega. Mentioning plan 99, Plan 99 is in reference to clone 99 from the clone wars. Clone 99 was a defective so called clone trooper with physical abnormalities compared to his brothers. He worked as a maintenance worker at the clone trooper barracks on Kamino. Despite his physical limitations, he was fiercely loyal to the clone troopers and often helped them in any way he could. Clone 99 died in the episode "The Clone Wars: Season 3, Episode 1 - Clone Cadets" while defending the clone cadets from an attack by Separatist commando droids. He sacrificed his life to help the cadets escape and transmit a distress signal, warning the Republic of the impending attack. Clone 99's bravery and sacrifice inspired the clone cadets to fight harder and succeed in their mission. So plan 99 here as Tech says, is him sacrificing himself for his team. Wrecker tells him not to do it, and tech questions when have they ever followed orders, shooting the wire and falling to his doom along with the tram pulling the others down. As the tram gets back on its tracks, they go speeding into the building and out the other end as Tech falls into the clouds with the rest of the tram cart. Now, here’s why I don’t think Tech is dead. There are actually many reasons supporting his survival. First off, his mutation was intelligence, meaning if anyone could calculate a way out of that situation, it’s him. The second was, he had thrusters on his back pack, meaning even if they didn’t act as a full on jet pack like jango or baba fett’s, he would have been able to slow his descent before hitting the ground and safely land. The third theory is that he fell into water, which would have a better chance of survival with his armor than if he landed on ground. The final theory is that Hemlock was using the clones for his experiments, and the bad batch were the more unique and special clones of all given their mutations and powers, he would have done everything he could to make sure he collected tech before he hit the ground, or to revive him and heal him back to health so he can run tests on him. I think in the third season, we could see the empire running tests and experiments on Tech, and this would likely be used as some sort of major mid season cliff hanger or something, as we all thought he’s dead. The fifth and final theory that tech is alive, is that Rex went to save him, somehow Rex went to iriadu just after the bad batch got out, and ended up finding Tech and saving him, only to show up later with him in season 3 to save the day. The main theory I cling on to here is that Hemlock recovered Tech’s glasses, meaning he probably found the body and took him to the lab. I think he had a ship ready to catch him because of how valuable tech is as an asset. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
