Episode Summary & Review
Summary
Shaak Ti leads the fight to keep Supreme Chancellor Palpatine out of General Grievous’ claws. Meanwhile, Anakin finds a hidden laboratory where the Techno Union is conducting experiments on Nelvaan warriors.
Our Take
This is pure Genndy Tartakovsky: almost no dialogue, just striking visuals and momentum. The Nelvaan sequence gives Anakin one of his most quietly unsettling moments in any Clone Wars era, with imagery that sticks with you long after the runtime. The Grievous assault on Coruscant is thrilling but brief, ending on a cliffhanger that feels abrupt. Still, a gorgeous, atmospheric ten minutes that rewards your time.
