A bay door opens, revealing a Nu-class attack/transport shuttle, but also two platoons of clone troopers, who gather information below the observation windows. Ahsoka tells R7 to open the doors, as Jesse's troops converge on the location, followed by Maul, and the disintegrating vessel begins to enter the atmosphere. In the control room, G-G tells Rex the hyperdrive has been completely destroyed, and he realizes the ship is caught in the gravity well of the nearby moon. Jesse tells them to assemble there, but to await his signal before acting.ĬT-5597 leads the remaining troopers into stopping Ahsoka and Rex from escaping. Over the comlink, Maul hears the clones report to Jesse that they think Tano and Rex are heading to the hangar. Ahsoka assigns R7 to unlock the bay doors, Cheep to prep the shuttle, and G-G to find out what has happened to the hyperdrive. Rex notes that the clones have anticipated their actions, and have sealed the hangar bay doors and locked down all systems - he says that if they weren't trying to kill them, he'd be proud. The vessel, emitting smoke and explosions, emerges from lightspeed and heads towards a moon.Īhsoka and Rex enter hangar control, stunning the officers. More troopers enter the hyperdrive room but are crushed when Maul brings the hyperdrive engines down on them. On the bridge, an officer reports that the hyperdrive is failing and is ordered to disengage them, but cannot. He tears the control console away, then uses the Force to rip the hyperdrive engines out of their moorings. Maul enters the hyperdrive room, quickly and violently dispatching the clone troopers inside it with the Force. Two clone troopers round the corner and train their guns at Maul, who lifts them into the air, choking them. He asks if Rex has aided in Tano's escape, but they don't know. Jesse asks about Rex and is told he is still missing in action. Over the radio, one of the clones reports to Jesse that Tano has escaped. Maul walks toward the hyperdrive room, still using a clone trooper's wrist comm to listen in on their radio chatter. Rex asks incredulously "Why?" and she replies, "As a diversion." As Ahsoka and the droids run down the hall, she yells for Rex to come on, and as he follows her he remarks to himself "That's one word for it." Rex asks Ahsoka if she'd heard that Maul had also escaped, but Ahsoka replies that he didn't escape - she let him out. As the escape pods have been destroyed, Ahsoka suggests using a shuttle to escape. Ahsoka tells R7-A7 to find them a way out, and the droid closes several blast doors cutting off most of the troopers. As soon as the cuts converge, Ahsoka pushes the door back with the Force, then deflects blaster fire as Rex stuns his former squadmates. They stand ready, with Ahsoka saying to wait until the cutting is complete. "Which is?" he asks, drawing his pistols, which Ahsoka tells him to set to stun so as to not kill the troopers, causing him to quip that she should tell that to them. Rex asks how they are going to get out, and Ahsoka says she has an idea. Plot summary Trapped Īhsoka, Rex and the droids on the med bay prepare for the clones' assault.Īhsoka Tano and Rex stand trapped in the medical bay of the Tribunal, as the clone troopers begin to cut through the door. With what happened in the middle years not being fully discussed, how Rex transitions to a relatively quiet civilian life could be an interesting story.In the wake of Order 66, Ahsoka and Rex must work together to survive. The establishment and fall of the Empire has been well explored throughout the current catalogue of movies and shows. There is a much larger story waiting to be told about a fan favorite character, which could give audiences a window into a Star Wars era that has received little attention so far. With that being said, it's hard to believe that all Rex got up to in the many years between the Clone Wars and the Rebellion was a leisurely life of joopa hunting with his friends. RELATED: The Clone Wars Finale's Haunting Last Moments Provide the Perfect Ending The same episode also proves that age is just a number and a Clone Trooper trumps a Stormtrooper any day. As seen in his first reappearance in Rebels, the Empire is quite aware of their existence and treats them as relics of a bygone era. Essentially, all fans know is that he goes into retirement alongside the few of his fellow clones who survived the war. Beyond that, official details on what happens to him in the interim are sketchy at best.
