Glad you liked it, sonofabinadi, thanks for the feedback. I’m polishing that episode now - it was the one I lost 2h of work on - so you just missed a slightly better version of the episode. But I’ll check that slightly off audio.

Since we’re talking about it, here’s what I was fixing and how:

Echo and Fives meet 99 scene: Without the win earlier in the episode, there was no medal for Hevy to give to 99, so no option to have 99 look sadly at the medal when he’s told that Hevy has died. But I was able to extend this moment out a little longer to let the sadness linger a bit more. It’s a bit brief, but I think that’s as much as you can get out of the scene, if you’re trimming the first act heavily like I did.
I also trimmed some of the audio in that scene that implied a long passage of time (whilst retaining the audio that implied an undetermined passage of time).
And one other part I quite enjoyed, was cutting together the audio a little, so 99 now says “Echo! Fives! … brothers.” It lands really nicely. Originally it was “Echo! Fives!” “You actually remember us!” “I remember all my brothers.” But the way he delivers ‘brothers’ feels fine after a brief pause after ‘Echo, Fives’, and matches his facial acting, as if he’s kind of shy and excited to address them that way, because he knows he has a special bond with the Domino Squad guys.
Since I don’t mind the worm on the Rishi moon being a suprise to the audience (at least at the cost of a relatively long sequence to introduce it before that), I needed some other way to kill off Cutup and have the numbers add up. I cut the audio of the battle droids saying “four escaped”, then just carefully trimmed the assault scenes, so only three clones are seen to leave. Implicitly, he died during the corridor fighting around the time when Sarge died. I think that’s fine.
I extended the “TWO WEEKS LATER” card over black to give it longer to land.

I need to redo some of these cuts but it’ll be done again soon.
