Following the events of "Replacements," the prevailing theory is that Nala Se will attempt to track down Boba Fett, Jango’s unaltered clone, for more genetic material. But Jango wasn’t the only willing donor in the galaxy, and Star Wars fans are gonna be Star Wars fans, so a number of new theories have sprung up. The lack of genetic material is high on the list. For the stormtroopers to evolve from clones to regular humans, something catastrophic had to happen. Star Wars: The Bad Batch is filling in the gap in the stormtrooper evolution story, but there are still some holes. By the end of the episode, Tarkin and Rampart are pleased with their first foray into drafting soldiers, setting the stage for the end of the clone army. To ensure the plan’s success, Rampart deliberately selects troops who feel personally wronged by the Republic, thus ensuring greater loyalty to the Empire. All these factors lead to Tarkin devising a new plan of action to conscript soldiers. We also learn from Nala Se, the Kaminoan doctor in charge of the cloning program, that the Kaminoans are running out of genetic material for the cloning process. As Tarkin explains in the episode, creating the clones is massively expensive. Tarkin realizes that the Kaminoans’ programming can’t be trusted to brainwash the clones forever, and hence he set in motion a new program - headed by Vice Admiral Rampart - that would make the clones redundant. These aspects of the cloning program relate to Star Wars: The Bad Batch Episode 3, “Replacements.” In the episode, Grand Moff Tarkin is underwhelmed by the clones, especially after the defection of elite Clone Force 99 thanks to some faulty programming chips.
