What Was Wolff Thinking Here?

- Commander Wolffe was one of the most no nonsense clones we've seen in the clone army. He was extremely dedicated to his job and served valiantly all throughout the clone wars alongside Plo Koon. Today we take a look at the mentality behind this very aggressive and successful soldier.

It's neat that the commando nodded when Wolffe said "But they're clones. We owe them that" when they were so stubbornly loyal in the past 2 seasons. I wonder if that means more commandos might defect like Gregor did and if there is still hope for Scorch and maybe even the rest of Delta squad.
I hope so but i doubt it. Remember when they tried to boost Crosshair's biochip? I wouldn't be surprised if they did that to all the Commandos at Tantiss.
@@RotalHenricsson That's a good point. Maybe the commando here isn't from Tantiss which would explain why he agreed to stand down.
Yeah, he felt a bit... less dead inside? than other Empire-clones we've seen. Though technically it could just be the brainwashing backfiring; that they're so unable to question orders anymore they won't even think thrice about letting "traitors" go if their immediate chefboss tells them to.
@@RotalHenricsson I think that might make sense. The bad batch are clone commandos, if a little bit _different._
I would say it's atleast reasonable to assume that after boosting Crosshair, the plan was for all of the Bad Batch to get boosted chips, since they are essentially super soldiers within a corps of super soldiers, aka all the other commandos.
And if you're gonna boost one commando squad... well, why not get them all, just as a precaution.
The normal clones rebelling is bad enough, but if your spec ops corps rebels... well... frying pan to fire.
Hilo (the commandos name) doesn't seem to know about what goes on in Tantiss.
Dose anyone notice the clones behind Wolffe were all bend over a bit but once Wolffe says "perhaps, but they're clones" they all stood straight up. It was heart warming a little detail.

Rex 1000% needs his own show. Clone Wars animation and all. I'll be sad if The Bad Batch is the last we ever see of the Clone Army and it's animation style.
Agreed. Shine more light on how he and Echo organized the Clone Rebellion
or, since Cody is alive, Cody gets his own spinoff. So many different directions they could go with his character
I agreed.
@@bealinjason9364 😢 wow hagaha
Yeah it would be great to have a show about Rex and his clone underground rebellion thing. It could also circle back to Wolffe and how they finally get him to join them, and it could give closure to Cody’s story and so much more. I would love a show like that with the same lovely animation that would just focus on Rex and his escapades during the first few years of the empire.
I like how they alternate between stun rounds and live rounds. Shows that they care about sparing their fellow Clones while caring less about the TKs' lives.
I didn’t get it some times like they stunned tk’s and killed clones too.
@@MrPeach6000 chaos of a smoke filled fire fight. to me it look like they were using live rounds until they realized the empire were use stun and switch too them as well. (of course then the clone assassin tried to kill them)
@@tahhotep Good reason.
Out of the commanders, wolf is always slow to figure out what’s going on but quick to take care of some shit
Aq
So sad Captain Rex lost another men again and again...Greer,Samson,Nemec and Fireball Death😢😢..i wish all clone trooper can survive from the empire...please Dave Filloni make story clone trooper survive from the empire please🙏🙏🙏😭😭😭
And howtzer
@@williamheath7058he’s very alive as of episode 7, just like Gregor and echo.
*another of his men
@@pubg-blsy3352 i hope Captain howtzer can survive
Seeing how few there are and how they fall like flies... i'm *very* concerned about Howzer. I'm very concerned about *all of them* if they didn't make it to the Old Folk's AT-TE. I really hoped the Clone Rebellion would realize they had no chance and just quietly retired but... i'm starting to suspect they get all whiped out and Rex, Gregor and Wolffe are the only ones left ;_;
Its cool seeing combined arms TK(stormtroopers) and Clones in the earlyd days. They arent bickering either, the TK takes their orders and act soldierly
Yeah it’s nice to see the clones and tk troopers working fine with each other it seems Wolffe and his clones had accepted them since there didn’t seem to be any tension between them
@@thomasbootham2707Or the TK Stormtroopers know not to mess with them. Cause I know for a fact that Wolffe set them straight.
@@Venom3254 Likely both. Remember many still respected the Clones. Not all had a dislike to them.
To their credit the TKs so far have been fairly professional and seem to accept the Clones' seniority when they're deployed under a Clone's command. Kind of echoes Rex's stance that "experience outranks everything" and is probably in no small part due to the fact they've all been trained by Clones and lived during a time when the Clone Trooper was seen as a hero of the Republic. It's the non-Clone officers (like Lieutenant Nolan) who mostly have a superiority complex about it.
@@aviatorengineer3491 In regards to the professionalism. I wouldn't be surprised if a lot of the TK recruits either, were hopefuls from peaceful worlds that cheered on the clones, or were from worlds that saw conflict and now want to serve. Also, a good number of them probably saw the white armor they were issued and wanted to live up to the symbol the clones were
It’s interesting that Wolffe’s unit was so accepting of his order to stand down. I was expecting the commando to usurp command and order Wolffe’s extermination. Makes me wonder if the whole unit might defect
I hope so. I want some Commandos joining up with the other clone rebels
Wolffe and his unit served under Plo-Koon, one of the most moral and kind Jedi Masters. I don't think they liked Order 66 after the inhibitor chips started to degrade.
This episode, hurt me.
The ending, where Commander Wolffee decided to bury Rex’s fallen, made me legit cry. The clones have been through so much and it just hurts to see them lose more and more and have to bury more and more.
Made my chest hurt!!
One of the oldest rules of war. The winner of the battle buries or returns home the honored dead.
A rule wolf and every clone trooper knows full well. A rule the tk trooper will not understand until yavin.
@@zomfraggerand rebels didn't understand it at all. Maybe I am wrong but only signs of respect to a worthy adversary during galactic civil war were from empire's side.
@@dlandeer The rebels relied on hit and run tactics until at least Endor. For them there was no honor dead to bury nor send home. They left that for the empire to do as they were the only ones left.
@@zomfragger although that is very rare.
Speaking of "not all clones served under a good Jedi General" I think it could have been an awesome gut punch if they showed us somebody from the 501st like Dogma or Appo willingly working under the Imperial regime due to their experience with Pong Krell.
Appo in the comics is not a good dude and is commander of the 501st under Vader and hunts Jedi
Yeah legends Appo is exactly that.
Dude was cold.
Having the 501st hunt Rex and the BB would be awesome, but that would require the attention of Vader and I feel that’s beyond the scope of this show and Vader would no doubt wipe the floor with everyone. As much as I’d love to see Dogma and Appo in their new imperial designs and how they fit in, it’s hard to write them in. Also Dogma being detained and held prisoner might not have gotten a position back in the army and might’ve been converted into a shadow operative.
This season of The Bad Batch has been incredible.
Agreed. Every episode has been amazing.
I'm glad we got to see Wolffe again and it's also sad that so many Clones died😢
Its sad to think of how large the clone rebellion could have been if more had survived waxer, fives, heavy, kix, jesse loads more
Kix technically will outlive all of the clones except maybe Omega
@@pupulauls makes it even sadder really as he may never even hear they the clones went down fighting
I wish we could’ve known what happened to Boil since Numa has part of his armor in Rebels
@@pupulauls Isnt he basically in hibernation for like almost 100 years?
@@brrazzy8417 yeah he woke up 30 years after Endor. He was found by pirates and joined them after learning what happened.
Would love to see a spin off of Rex's crew. The animation is so prime now, don't full stop here!
Yeah it's amazing to see how far they've come since the movie
As a kid the movie seemed like great animation. Going back and rewatching now is always a surprise lol.
I was 8 and already a huge SW fan when the CW movie came out and I instantly fell in love. It probably helped that I was mainly a prequel fan and clones were already my favourite characters
I do love it how the end talk with Rex wolf it’s just clones at the end and no tk troopers
2:22 I think these shadow clones are the new (canon) Phase 0 Dark Troopers.
No, we saw those back on Kamino. The Bad Batch fought them twice in the arena
I suspect they might be clones based off of Crosshair while he was experimented on. Highly lethal, and the re-cloning could mean they degrade a lot faster and the empire wouldn’t have to clean up the mess.
On Ahsoka and Wolffe, I'd say that they had possibly known each other before that rescue mission because while Plo Koon protects their pod and Wolffe tries to keep the signal alive he hears her trying to reach them and calls her by her name. ("It's Ahsoka! She must be close!" is the direct line). For him to forgo calling her by her rank and instead by her first name implies a level of atleast familiarity if not intimacy.
It's not too hard to believe that in the time before becoming Anakin's padawan Plo Koon would have introduced Ahsoka to his men to get her used to clones before being sent out.
Wolffe calls her "Commander" during the hunt for her, and that's probably a way to put a bit of distance between their relationship and his orders. I noticed when they are taking her back after capturing her that while Rex and him are holding her up, she's pulled slightly towards the right (Wolffe's side). Ahsoka hadn't moved, Wolffe was just righting her so she didn't fall over. Another way you can see she was important to him is that fact that hes helping Rex hold her up at all when one of them would've sufficed; I doubt Ahsoka weighs much.
Wolf and the other clones who didn’t follow orders are going to end up getting rescued from Mt. Tantis.
Good to see all clones aren't immediately being decomissioned. I hope we can see the 501st in this era.
If we see the 501st, then we're seeing Vader.
I think that Wolff didn't belive Rex, but he want to. He trust Rex, and when someone who trust says something like that you give the beneficent of the doubt.
The best example is the hunt of Ahsoka: someone innocent.
1:34 I’m regrowing my beard to be like his again.
Wolffe’s or Rex’s?
@@sonicgen20 The one the video’s about. 😉
All of those videos worrying about the clone rebels getting killed and then we lose Nemec, Fireball, Greer, Samson, Orange, and Red in just two episodes.
Also first time seeing Samson a 187th legion clone in canon and he gets vaporized, same with the unnamed clone from the 87th sentinel corps.
lowkey hate how they made fireballs death worthless, but I love how it lived up to his name
Also the first time we saw a dc 15x
Samson isn't 187th but looks to be a 501st member, and a dripped out one at that. Samson, alongside Rex, Howzer, Nemec, and Greer had taken to pulling security during the Pandora scene. Once they leave on the shuttle with the captured Clone X, Samson is briefly seen standing beside Hozwer before Howzer talks with Rex. On Teth he's on patrol duty, and dies hunched over a boulder after the 2nd shuttle explodes
@@jakobh6046 I disagree, I've never seen an instance where a clone wears different colors than that of his unit after the Phase 1 rank system was scrapped. I also don't think it's a coincidence considering how closely the red clone resembles an 87th sentinel corps trooper. Since the 187th Legion and purple shock trooper designs have officially been made canon I think Disney is introducing more clone units that we did not get to see before the clone wars show ended.
@@JesseLB06 I can see what you're saying, and I'm not arguing that regiment members change their unit colours, I believe that Samson is a 501st member, considering how Anakin let the unit become individualistic, then again it would be rare that Vader's Fist would have defect members. I think looking at Samson he could be either, it just can't be determined. In the very few scenes we see him in it looks as though his colours are a vibrant blue, but in other scenes, it looks more purple. Either way I wish we could've seen more of him
12:59 I love how all the clones stand down the moment Wolffe mentioned that they were one as well. Such a good lil detail.
So far this season is leaps and bounds better than the first two in my opinion. 7 episodes in and nothing has felt like filler. Everything is contributing to the overall story which can't be said for the first two seasons
I forgot about Wolf turning them into the Empire.🙁 Maybe I should rewatch.
Thanks Alan👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
He didn't turn them in. He let them go.
One thing as of note from the Rebels episode when we are introduced to Wolfe. The empire refer to Wolfes code as a "retired commander" showing he probably will ride out the rest of his empiral obligation and not desert
I think Wolffe retires and joins Rex. It's like resigning from the army before joining the other side.
The interaction between Rex and Wolffe serves as a great comparison between Rex prior and after the Umbaran arc.
Supah exciting episodes 6&7 ^^ Amazing content to wind-down with at late evening via Disney+ 🙂 Here in Generation Tech good subjects & talk as always 🙂
I always watch your videos after watching the recent episodes
I wanna see the clone assassins from the revenge of the sith video game make an appearance those guys were sick
I think Rex and Wolfe survived the events of the og trilogy, I’d like to think they were in the battle of Endor. Wolfe doesn’t want to accept the situation with the Clones because he’s a soldier and the Empire gives him purpose, he’s afraid of losing that.
Wow such a deep breakdown of the episode! Keep them coming
F for the fallen.
Great video! You always help me see Star Wars in a new light and understand things deeper. Just good writing too.
It's also worth noting that all of the TK troopers died prior to Wolf and Rex meeting at the end.
Maybe I’m wrong but in that final confrontation with wolf I noticed only clones managed to survive, no TK troopers board the shuttle at the end
I think they were all pretty much taken out during the First Team's fight with the Rebel Clones.
A lot of the TK troopers were killed, the rest were stunned and unconscious. So you're right that final confrontation consisted of exclusively clones.
I was wondering if it was the same temple! I also think that while Wolff is a good fit for the empire, he doesn’t have the same values that the empire has because of master Plo’s influence and guidance. Maybe plo teaches him that the reason he’s fighting is to protect the civilians as they are the republic as the republic is them?
3:25 - Dave Filoni isn't the only SW authority but given the consistency of his track record, Plo Koon being his favourite is just MORE PROOF THAT PLO KOON IS THE GOAT.
Of all the Jedi, he's one of the most committed and firm without being rigid or dogmatic like Mundi or even Yoda. Not perfect but none of them are, and I will swear up and down that he's basically Optimus Prime with a lightsaber.
Thoughtful summation of Wolffe’s character. One detail though: Wolffe commanded his men, “Shoot to kill!” when they were chasing Ahsoka. Anakin countermanded that order, “NO! Shoot to stun!”
3:36 bro what am i looking at
Im loving this rebel clone story arc, assisting senators to meet in secret to discuss anti empire things, setting up a base. I thunk it may be too niche, but personally i would love a series on this, with stories of how the defecting clones escaped the empire, how they found the clone rebel cell, the wins, the losses...
Filoni would be keen too i reckon.
Alan may I ask where you got your glasses from I'm looking for a new pair and I really like yours, keep up the excellent work btw
Its a shame this show is ending, seeing more of the empire through wolf's missions and some early storm trooper characters like we did with crosshair episodes would have been great. Plus i need more supercommando characters. Gregor is my favourite clone and there is nowhere near enough of him.
That episode on Aleen was the best. Those little dudes language made me laugh. “Cana do Cana do! Tip tip!”
I reckon that secret clone is cody
I think it's tech
@@RayvenTheNightthere’s a scene of Cody using a vibroblade in season 2 in a very similar manner to the operative’s fight against Crosshair.
Wolfe also says to the operative ‘I outrank you’, and then him and the operative have an awkward stare down. It may be dark humour, as Cody and Wolfe were once the same rank!
@@captainrex4723 I think it would be a very cold a cruel parallel as crosshair would know that cody would have eventually became one of them after he sees the first one and just loses it
I never even considered this, why would you make me think about it
@@captainrex4723it’s much more likely it’s Tech. That’s why they are focusing on this character so much. And would be a more intense narrative struggle for the Batch to face him after they thought Tech died.
Also the visor, build, and voice of the clone being hidden, kinda points to tech.
Especially since we know Cody deserted in S2.
Uhha, Ahsoka was not accused of masterminding the temple bombing at that time, she was only suspected of murdering Leta and perhaps killing some clones wile escaping.
2:59 Not sure what you mean by him not being armed, but you can definitely see the blaster pistols in his holsters when the shuttle ramp lowers
All your videos are worth watching all the way thru, but this one especially. You know what you did 😂
Daylight burning apartment. Usually when i've watched your content, there is dark outside 🙃
Season 1 Episode 2 of Clone Wars is one of my favorite Star Wars anything
…. How did I just find out bad batch premiered like a month ago….. Ig I’ve been way to preoccupied on homework! I guess I better binge watch s3 and your breakdowns / videos so I can be up to date.
Very Nice
I watched this entire video. I believe in Commander Wolff. I am Generation Tech!
I have always wondered if he has better vision with his cybernetic eye especially from a Star Wars fan like myself that also plays cyberpunk, 2077 lol you can scan and hack a lot with those optic implants
The thing I don't get is why they kept Wolffe the way he is and not sent to Mount Tantiss? He was useful the way he is or did not "open his mind"?
I think the clone projects at Tantiss are moreso taking advantage of the surplus of clones rather than a definitive way to get rid of them, it would be too suspicious if suddenly every single active clone across the galaxy disappeared, which is especially true of well known high ranking clones like Wolffe
He was a loyal clone that followed orders. The clones on Tantiss are the ones who were disobedient
They didn’t just send millions of active clones to Tantiss for experimentation. The clones are getting gradually phased out over time, with the disobedient/surplus clones being sent for experimentation.
Edit: Also thought I would provide some additional context. It’s a big galaxy, with trillions of beings and only a couple million clones. Even if the clones didn’t get phased out at all, they would still be outnumbered by the sheer amount of recruits flooding in from across the galaxy.
He basically killed himself. He disobeyed orders in front of a whole imperial battalion. He knew this was a death sentence but still let them get away ..
From his conversation with rex he definitely is not aware that this could be a death sentence. However he is the highest rank a clone can achieve, which might buy him some survivability.
I wouldn’t say an entire battalion. Battalions consist of several hundred men.
Judging by the commando body launguade and how he handled the situation plus the clones walking away, I’m sure they all agree with him
Chow time!! lol just wish we got to know our clones more. Other than that. Episode is great!
I also would really like a Captain Rex show about the clone resistance/rescue movement
I want to see Crosshair tell them about Cody and how we defected
I kept thinking to myself in those two episodes is this is top tier star wars animation S3 so far is absolutely amazing dare I say it's up there with the best star wars has to offer
I like how they all turn around to face the door as it goes up. That would feel pretty silly once it closed.
It's interesting the ones of wollfes force that die are mostly tk troopers and when he's face to face with rex he's got all clones around him
Stormtroopers are amateurs compared to clone troopers. Nevertheless, Wolffe's moments were amazing.
I thought the same thing about that "Rebels" episode where Wolf freaks out when he sees Kanan and Ezra, I instantly thought that's why he acted like that, because he stayed with the Empire and didn't leave until much later, he had greater indoctrination, also he probably never had his chip removed!
Nope in rebels, its revealed wolf had his chip removed
@@nopenopetheknight7519 Yeah, forgot they said that, but I think the rest still applies!
Rex kind of did say in Rebels that surviving Jedi constantly attacked them before meeting Ezra and Kanan. In other words, they met paranoid Jedi Knights and Padawans who lost all trust in clones and were willing to kill them to survive. Ezra and Kanan were the first Jedi, aside from Ahsoka, to actually have a decent conversation with them.
Second comment as well lol love the channel and show
I think there may be a chance for more character development and redemption for Commander Wollfe in later episodes or series. He got a lot of hate for going after Ahsoka in Season 5 of The Clone Wars and I believe it is in his personality to follow missons without quesiton most of the time. I personally cannot wait to see what happens.
Please do a Video about how Palpi was able to transform from republic to empire from a legal point of view
Ah yes the floating helmet clone, a truly innovative piece of tech from the empire that conceals the whole body except the helmet. brilliant
I swear to God, I'll bet money that the shadow op that survived at the end is gonna turn out to be Tech.
I think cody
You’re gonna lose all your money 😂
Could be, because the way his "sigh" sounded was way too similar to tech’s
@@grandmoffjake6871I doubt it. Cody’s a deserter. He would’ve went into hiding
Yeah, I think it's Tech too. The way he speaks is similar, he makes some pauses that Regular Clones don't make (eg "They... are both" at the start of EP7), and his movemens are also different than a those of regular clones. He also suffers the same leg injury he suffered at the start of S2 during the explosion at the end of EP6. Can be considered a coincidence, sure, but I think it's intentional.
I know you focus on starwars but do you think you could do a episode on Hell Divers 2?
Has anybody else noticed that Rex’s left shoulder is cleaner than the right because it’s where his shoulder cover used to be?
Did anyone notice delta 03 at the end with echo
I am still waiting to see Cody again, since he went AWOL in season 2 and has not been seen since. It really is an injustice to just be done with such an important clone like Cody. It is great that we see Rex and Wolffe meet again, but I really want to see Rex and Cody meet again as they are possibly the most iconic and unstoppable combination of clones you could have, and Cody trained and worked along side Clone Force 99 (The Bad Batch) so not only seeing Cody meet Rex again, and for the first time after Order 66, but also see Cody meet the other members of The Bad Batch minus Crosshair since Crosshair has worked with Cody after Order 66, and well, Tech is gone so really would just be Hunter and Wrecker, and maybe Echo to some extent even though Echo originally belonged to the 501st and one of Rex's men, though Gregor is as far as I am aware, is one of Cody's original commando's, so include him in there.
Interesting that Wolffe still has Plo Koon's insignia on his left shoulder
Yeah, I’m sure Wolffe’s end to serving the Empire is drawing near. One of his troopers will likely report Wolffe letting the targets go, no way Wolffe’s gonna be able to talk his way out of that.
Still think the shadow operative is a clone of crosshair.
50th like. 🎉 i hope your day goes good 🔥
Am I the only one wondering why Rex is wearing a replament upper right arm piece because it doesn't sport his blue paint, and what point did he lose it.
Can you guys do a video on the parallels between Star Wars and Hinduism?
I'd rather a video on everyone being English in The Empire!?
Dd the British colonise the stars and run the empire from the shadows like in real life.!?
@@jayjoes940let’s be honest, the empire seems way cooler with British accents
Definitely looks like Teth!
generations tech do you think we will see quinlan vos again and the bad batch another anime series or live action Ahsoka season 2 come on sure in the years that follow of Ahsoka he might be in his 50s but still in good shape to fight value of moving slowly is that one can always see the way of ahead with age comes wisdom who's with me where do you think he will appear next
You’ll never know my internal thoughts >:3
Love the pfp Natali!
I love how Rex became even more bad ass in this series
Its funny wolf is scared of the Empire season of rebels. But does his job in the empire. Easter egg, Wolf till checks heart pulse in bad batch and season final of rebels. It's interesting if no one noticed that.
Why would the empire send the few clones they have left on mission to eliminate clones? Almost asking for mutiny, but maybe that’s the point?
14:23 Oh look, a floating helmet.🤣
I disagree with this statment 09:31
Wolff is not a bad commander. The target is the one with plot armor
👏👏👏
I fear in the Empire, the punishment for treason is death. Although Wolf lives onto another future cartoon series, it would seem everyone that failed to capture / kill the runaway clones at the end of S3E07 would be eliminated upon return to Tantiss.
WOW
Third comment as well love seeing wolf again
Ah yes, commander Wuff, from the Wuff pack.
Commander Wolffe!
One thing I also would like to point out;
All of the soldiers with Wolff at the end of the episode are Clones. None of them are the TK troopers. Which makes it to me even more important
👍🏿
I think the Assassin that survived might be Cody
Love Wolfe battalion
If the Empire wants omega's blood can't the bad batch just give them a sample and tell them to go away
I think Tech will be revealed as the Shadow Trooper.
I think Wolffe is in a lot of trouble because he let them go. But maybe HE leads the way to Tantiss? Looking forward to the rest of the seasons. Right now, it's really great.
I don’t think it was personal feelings when he was hunting for Ashoka. It’s not like he was sent on his own. He had Anakin and PLO-Koon there too. He was with his commanding officers to bring in someone he was close to as well. If he wasn’t sent with Jedi I’d agree with you on that. But he was sent with who he knew best and who would in his mind handle things properly afterwards
