Emerie Karr is a human female clone conceived from the genetic template of Jango Fett. She is the sister of Omega and Boba Fett.

Viewers of the series know her as a scientist who works with Dr. Royce Hemlock at the Mount Tantiss facility.

Omega was initially distrustful of her due to her alliance with the Empire. However, it all changed when she learned that Karr was her sister and had been assisting Crosshair with his medical needs.

She is also shown to have compassion toward the clone prisoners which puts her actual morality in question.

Considering her tie-ins with the Empire, some fans can't help but wonder whether she is evil or she is actually on the good side all this time.

Since Emerie Karr technically has an allegiance to the Empire, it is easy to say that the character is on the evil side.

However, you could also argue that there are more layers and dimensions to the character and there is no easy way to say whether she is good or evil.

Jennifer Roy of CBR argued in her article that "the reveal that Emerie is a clone radically recontextualizes her actions throughout the series."

She has shown that she is protective of Crosshair and views her familial connection to Omega as "important, even if she does not fully understand what family means."

Now that the sisterhood relationship between Omega and Emerie has been established, there is a chance that the latter will be redeemed in the rest of the third season and give more clarity on her morality.

It is interesting to see where they will go with Emerie in the next few episodes and whether she will change her true alliance at some point.

New episodes of Star Wars: The Bad Batch season 3 premiere every Wednesday on Disney+.
