In this episode of our The Clone Wars re-watch, R2-D2 evades bounty hunters and races against time to get help for Anakin Skywalker and Mace Windu before a starship collapses around them.
Jedi Knights Anakin Skywalker and Mace Windu don’t know it, but they have found themselves in the middle of a very dangerous game of “cat and mouse” with Boba Fett. As they search the crashed remains of the Jedi Cruiser Endurance, the come across a conspicuous Mandalorian helmet. When Anakin investigates, he unleashes a trap set by Boba. With no other means of escape, the two Jedi are dependent on R2-D2 to go for help. It is the penultimate episode of The Clone Wars from season two, and we are excited to talk about it here on Podcast Stardust.
In this fully armed and operational episode of Podcast Stardust, we discuss:
- Our overall thoughts on this episode of The Clone Wars and how it compares to the other two episodes in the story arc,
- Mace Windu’s inability to understand Anakin’s faith in Artoo,
- What R2-D2 means to Anakin and the history between the two,
- Some of the history between Mace Windu and Boba Fett, and
- The final rescue of the Jedi at the end of the episode.
