Cut Lawquane was absolutely a Commando
Ok, crazy theory time.
I think Cut Lawquane was a Commando, or least a Commander. But going with Commando for now. But I don't think he was a rank and file clone trooper.
All of the clone troopers i think should be shown as exceptionally trained, but Cut Lawquane showed incredible skill, even though we saw him compared to Rex the entire episode. Evidences are below:
A) Rex is both a Captain and one of the oldest of the CT's, but the entire time Cut acts as his equal and perhaps even elder. He doesn't talk quite down to Rex, but it reminds me of how people act when they're just a grade apart. Not like they know everything and the other knows nothing, but there is a definite difference between them. Also he instinctively recognizes Rex as a Captain, but is not phased by that at all.
B) He disables Rex, the Captain Rex, with a farming tool in zero seconds flat, and does it without hurting him.
C) He recognizes Commando droids, which are typically only used in special assignments. And he also knows that it takes a headshot to pierce their armor. On Rishi it was Captain Rex who recognized them and said they were brand new. So for Cut to already know exactly what they are, especially when he's been out of the war for months, at least implies he could have been on high stakes missions before right in the beginning of the war. Which is also why I'm leaning Commando instead of Commander, because it's more Commandos who go on missions while Commanders are still often with general forces.
D) He has a highly developed sense of individuality and creative thinking, which was encouraged more in the special forces than general troopers.
E) Cut also says, specifically, "everyone I cared about, my team, was gone." Commandos are specifically trained to work in groups of four as a cohesive team. additionally, with these commando units being so tightly knit, the feelings of complete loss could have played a large role in Cut's desertion.
F) Cut and Rex play a game of dejarik, and while the winner is not shown, by the end they're both down to the last piece, which shows that Cut is around Rex's level when it comes to strategy. And Rex is so good at strategy that Marshall Commander Cody, who the commanding officer of around 36,000 men, considered Rex to be one of the best they had in that regard. Not to mention that Cut is impressed with Rex too.
G) Cut has 3 blaster type weapons that are probably the weapons he had on him when he deserted: an older rifle, a blaster carbine, and a DC-17. Now, it makes sense for a farmer to own a rifle, and the blaster carbine is a general GAR blaster. but the DC-17 is the same blaster pistol that Rex uses, that we have only seen used by ARC Troopers, Captains, and Commanders.
H) This is probably the most obvious one of all, but Cut is an incredibly good fighter. Even our beloved ARC troopers Fives and Echo struggle to take on a few. Cut takes on 20 and lives (granted the droids are not top form but its still impressive). He makes three headshots in a row with his rifle in less than three seconds, and the next three kill shots are all headshots as well. he also throws a wooden rafter-beam off him (that might be dad-strength tho) and hits a metal droid with a wooden chair hard enough to break both of them. he also punched one of them in the face hard enough the droids eyes flashed red (and then slightly regretted it, but it didn't look like he broke his hand either).
I) Cut hadn't been fighting for at least several months, since he deserted almost right after Geonosis. so as incredible as his skills are, he had probably been even better before, so just think about that for a moment.
Edit: i forgot to put this in because it wasnt in The Deserter, but by bad batch he already has gray streaks and a receding hairline. guys an old teenager for sure
So, Cut is a highly trained and skilled fighter in both hand to hand combat and blaster combat, he's at least as old as Rex and is not intimidated by his rank at all, he was in a specific team and felt like everything had no meaning after they all died, he has the weapons of an officer, had seen enough of commando droids to recognize them and their weaknesses, is Rex's match in strategy and combat while being more independent.
All of this points to Cut being anything but a regular CT, and as far as I'm concerned he was absolutely a Commando.

What is her purpose?
Tumblr media
Cut: All right, out with it. What's with the girl? Hunter: She's a defective clone, like we are. Cut: Not exactly. Hunter: What do you mean? Cut: The Kaminoans don't create without a purpose. You all have one, so what's hers? Hunter: It doesn't matter. She's just a kid.
Tumblr media
It obviously DOES matter. The Kaminoans created her for a reason. They kept her separate for a reason. What is it?

The Lawquane Family in my Modern AU
Cut is another half brother of the Batch, and he is one of the older brothers of the family,. He and Su leave a quiet farm out in the middle of nowhere, with their two kiddos . They will visit the Batch and other family now and then, but typically only make appearances at family gatherings.
Regardless, Omega loves hanging out with her cousins. (Technically they are her niece and nephew but everyone just calls them cousins)

I'm getting pretty tired of people using Slick to condemn the Jedi as a whole.
Slick is so clearly presented as an unreliable narrator. And not even the way TOTJ did with Dooku where he's clearly NOT presented as an unreliable narrator, it's just that any viewer with media literacy is aware that Dooku's perspective is flawed and so it makes more sense to view it that way despite the obvious fact that the narrative in that show definitely supports Dooku.
Slick is an ACTUAL unreliable narrator. The shit he says to excuse his betrayal is exactly that: excuses. They even eventually point out what his ACTUAL motivation is: money. He betrayed everyone, including hundreds of other clones, for money from Ventress. He condemns the Jedi for being slave owners, but he helped an actual slaver succeed in this mission. Ventress is a Sith working for the Separatists, two groups of people sort-of explicitly known for being slavers and supporting other slavers. Slick claims to have made a strike "for all clones," but nothing he did helped anybody but himself and mostly just brought about harm to all of the other clones there. Not only did many of them die in the ambush he created, but he also blows up their armory which leaves them at a major disadvantage for the rest of the mission, something that will ALSO lead to more clone deaths ultimately.
Everything he says is suspect because they tell you that his actual goal is completely and entirely selfish. Much like Anakin later when he starts throwing out excuses like "I should've known the Jedi were plotting to take over," it's pure bullshit and the audience knows it. He knows he's done something unforgivable and is throwing out grand causes to excuse what he's done, not just to those he's hurt but to himself. He's trying to convince HIMSELF that he's done this for the greater good, but literally nobody believes him, including the other clones in the scene.
We also have an alternative to Slick who's far more reliable to look at: Cut Lawquane. Cut is presented as a good person whose motivations are pretty sound. Rex does condemn his choice to abandon the other clones, but Cut points out that everyone else in his unit had already been killed in the mission by the time he ran away. Cut also never once chooses to condemn the Jedi when explaining his choice. He does cite the way they were treated IN GENERAL as part of the reason he left, but that's just as applicable to the Kaminoans and the Republic Senate as it is the Jedi (and in fact MORE applicable to the Kaminoans and the Republic Senate than it is the Jedi). It's also really telling that the episode is titled the DESERTER. Not "The Escapee" or "The Runaway" or something that might reference slavery a bit more, but "The Deserter." Which is something way more applicable to something like a draft than slavery, and Rex's commentary and accusations during the episode support that, too.
So quite honestly, I'm more inclined to trust Cut than Slick, but no one seems to ever remember Cut when they're condemning the Jedi as slave owners, just Slick.

i actually have a lot of questions about suu lawquane. like. it's kind of implied that before she and cut found each other, she was a single mom subsistence farming in an isolated area chock-full of natural hazards with two young kids. and when the empire comes along their reaction isn't "oh well we better keep our heads down and be prepared to hide cut if necessary" it's "guess we'll have to uproot our entire lives and make some incredibly risky moves in order to avoid being anywhere near the empire's active presence." and i know on a doylist level the latter is just to move the plot along and there's any number of explanations but idk to me it seems like cut has never been the only one with a vested interest in avoiding detection by the authorities.

We all believe it's Tech. CX-2 is most likely Tech. However, I propose something I haven't seen anyone else suggest.
Cut Lawquane
Bye!
