Known For. Rush Hour Agent Whitney. As Rex was forced to order a retreat, Krell disdainfully ordered reinforcements and angrily confronted Rex for disobeying him. When Krell roared at Rex, Rex retorted by reminding him that he had a duty to protect the men under his command. Rex, Krell, and the st were sent to capture an airbase that was resupplying the capital.

Rex was ordered to go through a gorge that would leave them exposed. Rex tried to reason with Krell to no avail. Despite the objections of Fives, Jesse, and the rest of the st, Rex convinced his men to carry out Krell's orders. As they made their way through the gorge, they were attacked by the Umbarans' crawler tanks , which they destroyed.

They were then confronted by the Umbarans' MHCs , which had heavy armor impervious to their rocket launchers. The base was taken and secured despite the heavy losses. When Kenobi contacted them about the capital's long-range missiles being supplied by a DH-Omni Support Vessel , Rex proposed that they attack the ship to cut off the supplies.

However, Krell proposed attacking the capital despite the missiles, much to Rex's and Kenobi's surprise. Rex was ordered to prepare the men for the attack, despite the heavy casualties. Rex at first complied but was then told of an idea by Fives to use the starfighter codes to infiltrate and destroy the supply ship. However, Krell objected to it. Following a mishap in a hangar, Rex gave Fives, Jesse, and Hardcase permission to carry out the mission.

However, he told them that if they were caught, he would not be able to protect them. Rex watched as they took off on their mission and stopped Dogma and CT "Tup" from informing Krell. Krell later confronted Rex, who told him that he authorized a reconnaissance mission to make his strategy more efficient. Rex then saw the supply ship's explosion. Rex, Fives, and Jesse were brought before Krell, where he reprimanded them.

Despite Rex's objections, Krell had Fives and Jesse taken to the brig for insubordination. Rex spoke with Krell to convince him to spare Fives and Jesse, telling him that the men were with him despite his reckless tactics.

Despite this, Krell ordered Rex and his men to execute them, but they refused to do so. Rex and Krell were then contacted by a trooper who informed them that they were ambushed by the Umbarans disguised as clones.

Rex was sent to attack the Umbarans. Rex and his men, armed with mortars , went into the jungle, where they were attacked by the troopers.

However, Rex examined one of the troopers and discovered they were clones. Rex ran in front of both his men and the troopers, revealing the deception. Rex then spoke with the th Attack Battalion platoon leader, Waxer , who revealed that it was Krell who ordered the attack before dying of his wounds. Rex gathered his men and the remainder of Waxer's platoon. He told them that they would arrest Krell for treason.

Rex and the men confronted Krell, who was surprised that he had figured it out. Krell, believing him to be committing mutiny, refused to be arrested. Krell pushed Rex and his men and escaped into the jungle.

Rex and his men went into the jungle, where Krell taunted him. Krell was subdued and stunned by Tup. Rex and his men placed Krell in the brig. During his questioning, Rex learned that Krell was trying to undermine the Republic so that Dooku or his master would make him his new apprentice and rule Umbara. When news came that Kenobi and th had taken the capital, Rex and the others decided to execute Krell. At first, Rex hesitated but Krell was then killed by Dogma.

Dogma was then taken into custody, but he and Rex shared a nod. Fives informed the Clone Captain that the last Umbaran holdouts had been defeated and the fight for Umbara was over, but Rex wondered aloud about what the point of the suffering was and what would happen to him and his brothers when the war ended. Ten rotations after Master Yoda's last communication with Kiros's governor, Gupat Roshti , Rex, along with Skywalker, Kenobi, Ahsoka, and their men, were sent to free Kiros from the Separatist occupation forces.

Rex finished off the last of the AATs with his rocket launcher as they approached the Separatist headquarters inside the governor's tower. Rex, disguised as a Zygerrian guard, went with Kenobi to find the colonists. Rex spotted Governor Roshti and attempted to escape with Kenobi and Roshti, but they were captured. Rex then went to a slave auction still posing as a guard.

When Skywalker whipped Kenobi, Rex saw his signal and attacked the guards. However, he and the others were captured. Rex, Kenobi, and Roshti were taken to Kadavo , to its slave-processing facility. There Rex worked in the facility's mines alongside Kenobi and the Togrutas as a slave. He and Kenobi were then brought before Keeper Agruss , who was ordered by Count Dooku to execute them.

When Agruss tried to escape and taunted Kenobi for not being able to bring himself to kill a defenseless person, Rex threw Agruss' electrostaff at him, impaling the slaver and killing him. Rex and Kenobi then made their way to a gunship and left the facility before it was destroyed.

Following the battle, Rex was assigned by Skywalker to guard the Supreme Chancellor against bounty hunter Moralo Eval 's kidnapping plot. Rex went with Kenobi, Skywalker, and Tano to Onderon to help train its rebels in fighting the Confederacy's occupation forces.

Rex taught them how to use weapons such as the droid poppers against the battle droids and how to use teamwork to take down Separatist tanks. He went with him to the military base , where Commander Fox told him that Tano killed several clones.

Rex, Skywalker, and Fox searched for her. Rex followed Skywalker to a tunnel, where they witnessed Tano escaping from them. At some point following Tano's departure from the Jedi Order, [74] Rex went with Skywalker to Ringo Vinda to take its space station back from the Confederate forces under Admiral Trench.

During the battle, Tup fired upon and killed Jedi General Tiplar. In the chaos, the st were forced to retreat. While Tup appeared to be unaware of his actions, he continued to display strange behavior and lash out violently towards Jedi. Both Jedi and clone leadership determined that Tup should be sent to Kamino for further evaluation. However, in the process, Tup was temporarily captured by Separatist forces on his departure from the station.

Together Fives, Rex, and Anakin Skywalker retrieved a still-unconscious Tup before Trench's droids could abscond with him. Concerned for his friend's safety, Fives requested that he accompany the troubled clone to Kamino. Although Rex was required on the front lines, he allowed Fives to stay on Kamino, telling him to take care of Tup and himself.

By the time the st had returned to Coruscant, Fives had been named a fugitive, having been accused of attempting to assassinate the Chancellor. Through Kix, he gave Anakin Skywalker and Captain Rex coordinates to rendezvous with Fives so that the three of them could speak privately. To Fives' surprise, both Skywalker and Rex appeared at his requested meeting spot.

Fearing that neither of his superiors would listen to his version of events, Fives requested that Skywalker and Rex go unarmed themselves and then trapped both in a ray shield. Agitated by his experience and prior drugging by conspiring Kaminoans, Fives struggled to explain his actions and his discoveries. Fives stated that artificially designed organic chips were planted into clones during the early stages of their development as sanctioned by the Chancellor and that, when activated, these chips compelled clones to strictly follow orders without question.

When Skywalker too accused Fives of trying to assassinate the Chancellor, tension escalated. Midway through the conversation, Commander Fox and a squad of Coruscant guards arrived to arrest Fives, on direct orders from Palpatine.

Desperate not to be captured, a terrified Fives reached for one of Rex's discarded blasters, prompting Fox to shoot him through the heart. Fives spent his final moments in the arms of Rex where he spoke his last words, reciting Tup's, having finally found peace. A distressed Rex then mourned over the body of his close friend. Even as he was recording it, Rex knew the report would be ignored.

The report was classified and encrypted in the Republic archives. Rex said he could not pinpoint her exact location, but that the initial scan indicated she was still alive. Upon reaching the planet's surface, Skywalker ordered Rex to hold the line as he searched for Amidala.

Rex, along with the rest of the st, successfully held their position and regained control of the planet from the Separatist forces. Once the clones began to unload equipment, it was discovered that the asteroid they were on was about to explode. Quickly, the Jedi and clones escaped the asteroid, thanks to Vos. However, the Jedi was simply fooling all of them and was still an agent of Count Dooku. After the Separatist Admiral Trench made advances against Republic forces during the Battle of Anaxes , Rex theorized that the Separatists had captured his comrade Echo, who was presumed dead, and that the Separatists were combating his strategies through him.

Rex and Commander Cody joined forces with an elite squad called Clone Force 99 known as the "Bad Batch" ; which consisted of Sergeant Hunter , the giant demolitions expert Wrecker , the sniper Crosshair , and the equipment specialist Tech. The clones raided a Separatist Cyber Center on Anaxes and discovered that it was receiving an audio signal from Skako Minor that was beeping Echo's clone trooper number. This confirmed Rex's suspicions that Echo might still be alive.

Although General Kenobi asked where Skywalker was, Rex tried to lie about what his General was doing. After landing, Skywalker was kidnapped by a large flying reptile called a keeradak which deposited him in a Poletec village. Rex and the Bad Batch traveled to the Poletec village where they made peace with the villagers and convinced them to release Skywalker.

With the aid of Poletec scouts, the clones and Skywalker traveled to the Techno Union city of Purkoll. During the journey, the clone troopers traced Echo's signal. When Crosshair disdainfully said that Echo was "just another reg," Rex attacked the commando. Anakin broke up the fight and dismissed the others to counsel Rex alone, saying that he had to face the reality that Echo may be dead.

Rex told his general that he tried never to dwell on the death on a friend and brother, but that he was certain that he had heard Echo. The clones traced Echo's signal to a tower and infiltrated it. Inside, they received a hologram message from the Techno Union leader Wat Tambor, who announced that he had used the algorithm to lure them into a trap. When Tambor charged them with violating the Techno Union's neutrality, Rex responded that Tambor had already breached the Union's neutrality by bringing a Republic prisoner to Skako Minor.

Tambor sent several D1-series aerial battle droids to attack them, but the clones and Skywalker defeated them. Rex and Tech forced their way inside a stasis chamber and found Echo. Echo was alive, but many of his body parts had been replaced with prosthetics, and he was kept in an induced coma. Rex and Tech freed Echo from the chamber after some difficulty. However, the clones and Skywalker were surrounded by Techno Union forces and unable to call for help since they were on an unsanctioned mission.

When Tambor dispatched a Decimator to destroy the intruders, Rex, the other clones, and Skywalker fled through an exhaust pipe. Wrecker then planted several detonators which destroyed the Decimator and the chamber. While crossing a pipe, the clones and Skywalker escaped on four-winged Keeradaks and returned to the Poletec village. At the village, the clones, Skywalker, and the Poletec villagers joined forces to destroy several D-wing droids and octuptarra tri-droids that Tambor had dispatched after them.

During the battle, Rex disabled one octuptarra by firing into its eye sensor. Following the battle, Echo thanked Rex for returning for him, but Rex simply stated that it was what brothers did and apologized for the time it took. Rex also expressed his hope that things would be just like their old times together.

The clones and Skywalker then headed back to Anaxes. After returning to Anaxes, Echo devised a plan which involved infiltrating Admiral Trench's dreadnought and feeding the Separatist systems with false information in order to secure a Republic victory on Anaxes. The clones and Skywalker infiltrated the dreadnought's interface unit and fed false information to Admiral Trench.

Echo brought all Separatist forces to the assembly plant and then used a feedback pulse to shut them down. When Admiral Trench realized the deception, he activated a time bomb in the factory's fusion generator.

Rex and his fellow clones fought their way through several battle droids and returned to the Havoc Marauder. Meanwhile, Skywalker killed Admiral Trench while Mace Windu used the Force to deactivate the bomb with the help of information supplied by Echo. Rex, his fellow clones, and Skywalker then fled Trench's dreadnought before Wrecker detonated it.

Near the end of the Clone Wars, the th Attack Battalion and the st Legion, led by Jedi Generals Kenobi and Skywalker, fought in a battle on the planet of Yerbana , with the two battalions fighting on different fronts. Rex, along with Anakin and the st, had won their battle and came to help the th overcome Separatist forces blockading a city.

While Anakin went to talk to Obi-Wan, Rex and the st hanged under the bridge they were fighting on. When Skywalker distracted the tactical droid who commanded the enemy forces, R2-D2 warned Rex that it was almost time for them to attack.

Rex led the st in a surprise attack once the droid was destroyed, using jetpacks to fly out from under the bridge and decimating the droid blockade. By that time, the former Sith Lord Maul had taken control of Mandalore with the help of the Death Watch and his Shadow Collective , a syndicate of crime organizations that swore allegiance to Maul. While she was there, Rex showed her the nd Company , a unit of clones in a new division that Ahsoka would command.

They had all wore painted helmets with a stylized version of Tano's facial markings. Rex commented that the painting was "crude", but that it got the point across, and although Ahsoka said that he did not have to call her Comandder, he chose to ignore that.

Skywalker left Rex, who had been promoted to Commander, and the nd on Mandalore to aid in the capture of Maul. Upon arriving on the planet, Rex recieved a message from Prime Minister Almec, who attempted to stop the invasion, though Bo-Katan wasn't fooled, stating that his time had come.

Soon after, they were attacked by Mandalorian super commandos , which forced everyone on the ship to leave on jetpacks. Rex apologized for not thinking of bringing Ahsoka one, but she dismissed the need of one and challenged the Commander to a race to the surface, jumping off the ship as Rex laughed. Despite having a jetpack, he still arrived second. Tano simply said she beat him, while he retorted that some things didn't change. Maul led Tano into a trap, thinking she was Skywalker or Kenobi.

Maul and his followers escaped the scene, however, and lost the clones in the sewers. Rex continued to oversee the st troopers. The battle eventually wound down to a Republic victory. Rex and his men brought Gar Saxon and the remaining super commandos into custody, and Tano successfully captured Maul after defeating him in a duel.

On the way back to Coruscant to deliver Maul into custody, Rex and Ahsoka met at the bridge of the Star Destroyer and watched as it entered hyperspace. Noticing she seemed thoughtful, Rex asked if something was on her mind.

Ahsoka was distraught that while the Jedi were meant to be keepers of the peace, yet the war had turned them into soldiers, including her. Rex agreed—but reminded her that without the war, the clones would not exist.

Ahsoka replied that perhaps the war had brought some good, such as the friendship between them. Both of them then saluted each other. Right then, an officer called Rex away to listen to the latest briefing. Rex tried to make Tano join him, but she denied the offer. At that moment, via hologram, Darth Sidious ordered all clone troopers to execute Order 66 [77] and gave Rex special orders to execute Tano despite her no longer being a Jedi, which Rex agreed to do.

Rex felt conflicted, and he briefly fought his programming, thinking of Fives and telling her to "find him," but inevitably succumbed and shot at Ahsoka. Ahsoka defended herself against Rex and the other present clones before escaping. Rex ordered the clones to hunt down Ahsoka, the captive Maul, and any who opposed the clones. Ahsoka had a plan, however, and she eventually stunned Rex into unconsciousness with the help of some astromech droids—one of which was Tano's astromech that had served alongside her on many occasions in the duration of the Clone Wars.

After sneaking herself and Rex's unconscious body into the Venator's medical bay, Ahsoka engineered a defense against the closed bay door with the droids and located Rex's inhibitor chip in his brain using the Force.

Ahsoka ordered the droids to surgically remove the chip while she prepared for the imminent door breach. When the clones finally breached through the door, Ahsoka was nearly overwhelmed by the blaster fire. However, Rex's operation completed just in time for him to regain his true consciousness and shoot down a few threatening clones.

Maul, on the other hand, advanced towards the ship's hyperdrive core, where he killed all the clones stationed inside. Rex and Ahsoka made their way to the hangar bay controls and opened the main hangar doors, where they found they were awaited by a large force of clone troopers led by the ARC trooper Jesse.

With the help of the astromech droids, they avoided the clones and made their way towards a Nu -class shuttle until Maul, escaping from the doomed ship, commandeered the shuttle and used it to escape the Destroyer. Meanwhile, Rex, piloting a Republic Y-wing bomber, which he took from the maintenance bay, exited the doomed Star Destroyer and saved Tano, who was plummeting towards the moon's surface.

Crashing onto the surface of the moon, the Star Destroyer was destroyed along with all personnel aboard the starship. Rex, salvaging parts of the Star Destroyer, prepared to depart the moon.

He watched as Ahsoka dropped her lightsabers on the ground in front of the field of the clone trooper helmets belonging to the fallen, to make it look like they too had perished in the crash. As they had dug the graves, Rex and Tano agreed to part ways, but both informed the other they would head into the chaos of the Outer Rim Territories. He informed them about Order 66 and the inhibitor chips before moving on, not revealing where he was going.

Clone Force 99 arrived at the Lawquane farmstead the following day, where Cut informed them of his appearance and statements, information that was of great importance particularly to Rex's old comrade Echo.

Rex recruited the Martez sisters into his resistance effort, learning about the Bad Batch's current location from them. Deciding to fight for what remained of the Republic, Rex [14] made it his mission to strike against the Empire, forming his own resistance movement. He recruited Trace and Rafa Martez [94] —two sisters whom Tano had befriended prior to the Siege of Mandalore [95] —to his new movement, and the rebuilt R7-A7 came into the sister's possession as well.

Understanding that the data collected by a Separatist tactical droid would be useful against Imperial tactics, Rex tasked the Martez sisters and R7 with retrieving the head of a T-series unit in a decommissioning facility on Corellia. Upon infiltrating the facility , the Martez sisters met the members of the Bad Batch, [94] who had remained mostly unaffected by Order 66 [96] and had begun to perform mercenary work for the Trandoshan Cid.

Although the droid head was destroyed in the skirmish, Hunter gifted the sisters a copy of its data before parting ways. Contacting Rex once they were in space, the sisters informed him via hologram that their mission was a success and that they knew the location of a rogue clone squad.

Notified by the sisters that Clone Force 99 was on Ord Mantell , Rex traveled there to find the Bad Batch, wearing a large cloak to disguise himself. He quickly discovered the Bad Batch at Cid's Parlor. After a quick reunion, including seeing Rex earn a big hug from Wrecker, meeting the group's newest member Omega , and reuniting once again with his old comrade Echo, Rex explained what he had been up to over drinks. However, the mood turned dark when Rex realized that the group had not had their inhibitor chips removed.

Rex became very alarmed and reached for his blaster, but he was eventually talked down by Hunter. Rex warned them about the dangers of the inhibitor chips and convinced the group to meet with him on Bracca so they could be removed. Rex and Clone Force 99 traveled to Bracca to enter a Venator -class destroyer.

On Bracca, Rex led them to the inside of a Star Destroyer that was being scrapped. Avoiding Scrapper Guild patrols, they made their way inside and Tech began to scan the group to locate their chips and have them removed in a similar manner as to how Ahsoka had helped Rex remove his. However, as Tech prepped Wrecker to be the first to go, since he had been having recurring headaches due to his chip, Wrecker's chip activated and he grabbed Tech by the throat.

Throwing his companion into a wall, he then set upon the others. Rex, Echo, and Hunter led him out of the room so Wrecker did not damage the equipment. They set a trap for him, with Rex springing out of a hallway to stun Wrecker, but he incidentally hit Echo when Wrecker tossed his fellow trooper at him.

Rex was downed, but he eventually rose and pursued Wrecker, stunning the larger clone as he had cornered Omega. After Wrecker was subdued, the group performed the extraction. Rex and the others waited for Wrecker to wake up to see if they had been successful, and when they found Wrecker alive and well, they set to work removing the rest of the group's chips.

Rex left to go outside and communicate to someone on his comlink. He was soon joined by Hunter, and Rex told the clone that his squad would be welcome to keep fighting for the Republic as he was. Hunter told Rex that the Republic was gone and that he needed to do what was best for his squad, and when Rex asked what that was, he nodded understandingly when Hunter replied that he was still unsure of what that was.

Rex departed then, telling Hunter to say goodbye to the boys for him and contact him when they figured themselves out. As Rex began walking away, Hunter told him that if he was ever in trouble, that they would be there for him, and Rex gratefully nodded before departing. Although Hunter felt that the Bad Batch was on a different path compared to Rex, Echo believed the squad should have left with his old friend, knowing it would mean they would not need to work for Cid and that it would let them be soldiers.

Sometime later, while Rex was on a mission of his own, he received a distress signal from his old friend Gregor; the clone commando had tried to desert from the Empire while training the first generation of the Stormtrooper Corps on the world of Daro , yet he had been captured after planting the distress signal.

Unable to go after Gregor himself, Rex instead contacted the Bad Batch as they traveled through hyperspace on a mission for Cid. After asking the commandos to liberate his friend but realizing he needed to cut his transmission short, Rex sent them Gregor's signal and ended his call. In the ensuing debate amongst the Bad Batch, Echo remaining steadfast in his devotion to help his former captain, understanding that Rex would only contact them if it was important.

Although it meant they may not get paid by Cid for their current mission, the squad ultimately decided to travel to Daro, where Echo, Tech, and Hunter departed from the Havoc Marauder. After analyzing the Imperial base they needed to break into, Hunter realized that the odds were against them, making him consider leaving and telling Rex that the mission was not possible.

However, Echo implored Hunter and Tech to continue the mission, remembering their mission to Skako Minor to rescue him. Convinced, the three broke into the facility and rescued Gregor, who trusted them upon learning Rex had sent them, but Hunter was ultimately left behind and captured by the Empire.

Ordering Omega to stay behind with droid AZI , Echo instructed her to return to the Havoc Marauder and contact Rex if they sent her a warning signal. Upon receiving the signal, she instead decided to activate training droids, which freed the Bad Batch and allowed them to capture Crosshair.

Meanwhile, Ahsoka had moved to the world of Thabeska before moving to the small farming moon Raada around a year later. On Raada, she sometimes thought about Rex, recalling her clone trooper friend when she saw the farmer Kaeden Larte , whose skin she noted to be darker than Rex's, albeit lighter than Mace Windu's. Later, she refused to imagine two stormtroopers as sharing Rex's face.

She also understood that Rex would have disapproved of the lackluster security measures the Empire put in place on the moon, which she then understood meant that the officers in charge were young. Several years prior to the Battle of Yavin , Tano tried to contact Rex, but her transmissions had gone unanswered since Wolffe had hidden their existence from Rex, fearing that the Empire would come for them if they were found colluding with a former Jedi.

When Rex was unresponsive, Tano sent a group of rebels that included the Great Jedi Purge survivor Kanan Jarrus and his apprentice Ezra Bridger to find Rex and obtain information from him on abandoned bases that the growing rebellion could use in their struggle against the Empire.

Rex and his comrades' first encounter with the Ghost rebels almost ended in violence when Kanan thought the clone troopers were a threat and ignited his lightsaber. Rex's timely intervention broke up the fight between his comrades and Kanan. Survey cookies Survey cookies are set by a third-party service provided by Qualtrics. Save and close.
