Order 66 was, tragically, the true purpose of the clone troopers. What other clones might join Rex and the Bad Batch in deserting the Empire? As shown in Star Wars Rebels, an older Rex lives on Seelos for years alongside Wolffe and Gregor, two more clones who removed their implants.
Rex, who was briefly controlled by his implant in Star Wars: The Clone Wars, implies that there are other clone troopers throughout the galaxy who could be saved from Imperial brainwashing. Season 1, episode 7, “ Battle Scars” sees the much-anticipated return of the fan-favorite clone trooper Captain Rex, who helps the renegade Bad Batch clones remove their control chips to preserve their free will. The latest episode of Star Wars: The Bad Batch suggests that there are more clone troopers who disobeyed Order 66 than shown in other Star Wars properties so far.
