The Hidden EnemyAnakin and Obi-Wan discover evidence of a traitor amongst their ranks while attempting to lead Republic forces to liberate the planet of Christophsis from a Separatist siege.
I really, really wish I could have seen this episode prior to the movie version of Clone Wars. It is set just prior to the events of the movie and I thought was a great set-up for that story. It was interesting to see just how the good guys got into such a bad situation where the movie starts off and I think that this episode gave the film more depth and greatly expanded upon the conflict on Christophsis.
Also, the episode dealt a lot with the clones and I thought it perhaps did the best job yet in the series at showcasing how individual they really are and really established that clones are there own people.
I find it interesting that this series is beginning to show that it isn't a linear version of the events of the war and it will in fact jump around a bit. I think that perhaps this is a good thing as "prequel" episodes of the series can help flesh out other episodes, much as this episode did for the movie. My only hope though is that some day Lucasfilm releases a chronological version of the series and movie on DVD/Blu-Ray so that I can sit back and marathon view them in the proper order.
Next time on Clone Wars...
