Tvtropes rogue trooper
However, Kenobi poses as bounty hunter Rako Hardeen and manages to foil the plot even though Dooku escapes while Bane was arrested (supposedly for good this time). He is then hired by fellow convict Moralo Eval for a job by Count Dooku to kidnap Chancellor Palpatine on Naboo. A short altercation between two Jedi who were also searching for the Hutt ensues but Bane is able to escape nonetheless.ĭuring the fourth season, Cad Bane is revealed to be in a Republic prison. He is eventually able to locate his target on the planet Teth but upon arrival he finds Ziro dead and the datapad missing. Shortly after Bane is congratulated by Jabba for his success, Ziro escapes and the bounty hunter is hired to track down and capture the rogue Hutt. Then in the following episode "Hunt for Ziro", which takes place after "Hostage Crisis", it is revealed that he was hired to extract Ziro from custody by Jabba the Hutt, due to an incriminating datapad the latter possessed. The episode "Evil Plans" takes place before the events of the season one finale, and depicts Bane capturing the two droids R2-D2 and C-3PO who involuntarily give him the plans to the Senate building. In the third season further details are revealed about Bane's attack on the senate building. However Windu contemplates that Bane’s fear of his client is stronger than his fear of the Jedi.
When the Jedi asked him who he works for Bane responded by saying “I work alone.” which means you can’t make me tell you who I work for. He is briefly captured before leading Obi-Wan Kenobi and Mace Windu into a trap in his headquarters, allowing him to escape. After he successfully delivers the Holocron to Sidious he was quickly assigned by the dark lord in order to kidnap force sensitive children and bring them to Mustafar. Bane finds himself in a massive struggle for the stolen Holocron as Skywalker and Ahsoka Tano attempt to take it back. In the second season, Cad Bane is contacted by Darth Sidious for a special assignment: the capture of a Holocron from inside the Jedi Temple.
There he holds a group of senators hostage, and demands that Ziro the Hutt be released in exchange for their lives. Cad Bane first appears in the season one finale "Hostage Crisis", where he infiltrates the Senate building on Coruscant alongside a team of fellow bounty hunters.
