Plan 99 Bad Batch Meaning and Season Finale Explained

Plan 99 in Bad Batch means a code designed by Clone Force 99 as an Experimental Unit. The plan was to save the squad from jeopardy by sacrificing a team member.

Clone Force 99, aka The Bad Batch, was an exceptional commando squad active during the Clone Wars. The unit was highly inspired by the audacious act of the force and the sacrifice Clone 99 made during the Battle of Kamino.

In the last episode, the sacrifice was made selflessly by Tech, the commando of the Grand Army during the Clone War. He took his own life to save the squad from the Imperial forces.

Plan 99 came into action on the Raven's Peak rail line on Eriadu, a terrestrial planet in the system of the Seswenna sector, with the group trapped inside the Skyrail, which was almost engulfed by a fireball.

Hence, he utters Plan 99 as the last resort to save his friends from being defeated by the Imperial force. The word only meant sacrifice.

The dark Imperial force comes from the Galactic Empire, which won the battle against the Galactic Republic at the end of the Clone War, becoming the power to bring sanity to outer space.

This didn't happen, and the Clone 99 had to interfere to bring order to the Galaxy.

Tech, one of the finest commandos created through genetic mutation, saved the Clone 99 by giving up his life.  Tech had a high IQ and kept tremendous technical knowledge which helped him serve operation 99 as their brain.

Furthermore, he fought against the Imperial force during the Clone War, deserting them for good. Since then, Tech has been one of the finest and senior members of the unit.

In the last two episodes of the animated series, the Clone 99 forces battled against the Imperial power, which was on the verge of swiping away 99 force entirely. 

But their plan couldn't be executed because of Tech's selflessness. He knew the outcome of his effort, but it didn't matter. All he wanted was to save the task force by killing himself.

Additionally, his body was never resumed, which could mean anything in the Star Wars universe. It is already known that people do not usually die, not even if they are sliced open with the LightSabers.

Star Wars has different rules of birth and demise. But still, it doesn't ensure Tech's future. Will he return, or is the story over for the brave soldier?

Bad Batch Season 2 finale ending explains the whole ordeal of plan 99. The two-part finale threw plot twists one after another, which was beyond anyone's imagination.

Nobody knew what to expect when the second season started with the Imperial army replacing the 99 teams individually. It was not a hit amongst the audiences during the initial episodes as the scenes were less relatable.

Similarly, it was unsure if the Imperial forces would take over or the Force 99 would prevail. It was a prolonged debate between the viewers unless the finale episodes went on air.

The battle between the Imperial force and Clone 99 happened in the skies of a terrestrial plant of Eiradu. When the batch tried to escape the Skyrail, stormtroopers attacked them.

Then, Hunter and Echo tried to reboot the rail, but it seemed impossible, so they asked Tech's help. Meanwhile, Tech was trying to find a solution to the problem on his way to the stormtroopers rail, but the damage was already done.

On the other hand, Omega and Wrecker took down the stormtroopers for a while, but they were overpowered and the Imperial Army.

When the Imperial army tried to slaughter the force on a rail car, Tech took half the rail and fell for good. Meanwhile, the rest of the force collected themselves and made sure they survived.

Although the story behind the Clone 99 was revealed in the end, it didn't ensure Tech's downfall or the signs of season three. Fans are wondering if it was a complete stop for Tech.

Indeed, Tech's body was never recovered, and it's also known that cutting half a body with Lightsabers also doesn't mean you are subdued in the Star Wars universe.

Hence, if it's a cliffhanger, people eagerly await the next chapter. But if it's the end of Bad Batch, the finale was a hit.
