- "Take me and leave the island alone. The people here are innocent."
"Then you never should have come here in the first place." - ―Omega and CX-2
Around 18 BBY,[4] the Galactic Empire performed a raid on the island Pabu to retrieve genetically defective clone Omega. After Clone X trooper CX-2 tracked her down by interrogating her former associate Ciddarin Scaleback and stealing the island's coordinates from Phee Genoa's starship, CX-2 finally found Omega, destroyed Clone Force 99's shuttle the Marauder, and called for reinforcements. The forces that arrived locked down the island by destroying any starships and sailing ships in the docks and began searching the city's houses one by one. After Hunter failed to commandeer an Imperial Low Altitude Assault Transport to escape the blockade, Omega was forced to surrender to the Imperials in hopes that her allies could use her to track down Tantiss Base's coordinates and rescue her. When she was captured, TK stormtroopers discovered and removed her comlink that would allow her to be tracked. As another option, Crosshair attempted to plant a homing beacon on the ship that was taking Omega away, specifically CX-2's CX Dagger vessel. However, he was unable to, and Omega was taken away, unaware that her allies had no way to track her down. Following Omega's capture, all Imperial troops withdrew from the planet.[3]

Star Wars: The Bad Batch — "Point of No Return"
- ↑ 4.0 4.1 Per the reasoning here, Season 2 of Star Wars: The Bad Batch takes place around 18 BBY. The tally marks made by Omega in The Bad Batch Season 3's first episode, "Confined," indicate the episode must take place at least twenty-one standard days following her capture as depicted in the Season 2 episode "Plan 99." According to
"Confined" Trivia Guide | Star Wars The Bad Batch on StarWars.com (backup link), Omega spends about 164 further days in captivity by the end of "Confined." As such, the events of Season 3 must begin around 18 BBY.
