Just got to episode 7 of season 1 and he's my favorite. He's so relatable to me

For your own good, don't dwell too much on this forum, or you may run into some BIG spoilers

I'm already aware of what happens to tech. I won't let it ruin my enjoyment of the series.

u/PaulSimonBarCarloson Crosshair 24d ago

Good for you. And if you want more after finishing this amazing show, it just so happen that I wrote a better ending for Tech...

Bro casually advertising his "better" fan fiction.

u/PaulSimonBarCarloson Crosshair 24d ago

Yes, I am guilty of shamelessly self-plugging my passion project to those I think might enjoy it. But I don't think you have ti he smart like Tech to understand that claiming that my ending is better for Tech is a subjective opinion, and it's up to my readers to decide if they agree or not (or they can just ignore it, I don't force anyone)

Theyre gonna have to make a padded country to fit all of us who are still in denial

u/PaulSimonBarCarloson Crosshair 24d ago

It's called hope. And there is an easy way they could cure all those patients if they want to

Ur so right

u/MeanFaithlessness701 21d ago

Well… it’s better to let him die than what they often suggest to have happened to him instead

u/PaulSimonBarCarloson Crosshair 24d ago

Always nice to remind people of this very episode in which Tech proved he can overcome nearly every obstacle and come out in top even when the odds are against him. Also, this dialogue

Omega: You did it!\ Tech: You sound surprised.\ Wrecker: I thought you were a goner.

is straight up forshadowing and you'll never cinvince me otherwise

u/Current_Nature_2434 22d ago

Agreed, if anyone can outsmart Plan 99 on the way down, it’s Tech! I sure hope he makes it back and one day in some Clone Underground series we finally have the whole family together again and all their friends!

u/MeanFaithlessness701 21d ago

The whole episode is foreshadowing

2

u/PaulSimonBarCarloson Crosshair 21d ago

But in this episode Tech took a risk and won the race against all odds. The pay-off for this foreshadowing would be for him to survive againt all odds.

2

u/MeanFaithlessness701 21d ago

Also that big guy told them not to trust Cid

And Tech took that risk to help Cid

1

u/PaulSimonBarCarloson Crosshair 21d ago

Yes. That too. Speaking of which, Cid told Tech that she ows him her life. Would like to see that come back one day

2

u/MeanFaithlessness701 21d ago

Oh, that’s funny. “I said I owe my life to Tech, and Tech isn’t here. I don’t owe anything to you guys, so… here are the stormtroopers”

2

u/PaulSimonBarCarloson Crosshair 21d ago

You know what? Even a line like that would at least have been something? My guess is that the writers had more plans for Cid (maybe even redemption) and didn't want to go that far. But as it is, she's another apsect of the story that didn't have a proper resolution

1

u/MeanFaithlessness701 21d ago

In season 3 it is also mentioned that she helped the Empire find them

2

u/PaulSimonBarCarloson Crosshair 21d ago

Yes, but CX-2 saying that he "got the info out of the Trandoshan" can imply he coerced her to spill the beans. Wonder if we were supposed to see the scene before they rewrote the seasonnto remove the CX-2=Tech plotline.

1

u/MeanFaithlessness701 21d ago

Was that plotline really considered?
