Pitching a Stormtrooper Show.

John pitches a new show idea to Matt, rooted in the Star Wars galaxy:

- Imperial Stormtroopers in need of a new life

- Like The Bad Batch, but with a different kind of arc

- Keeping in Captain Rex continuity

- Using the time to establish the world of the New Republic’s earliest days

Should the show start on Endor after the destruction of the Second Death Star? Should Captain Rex be their mentor? How could the show serve as a rhyme without repeating The Bad Batch’s amazing beats?
