While Obi-Wan Kenobi desperately pursues General Grievous, Captain Rex recovers from an injury and discovers a deserter from the clone army in this episode of The Clone Wars.
It is Monday, and that means it is time for another episode in our re-watch of The Clone Wars. This week, we are discussing “The Deserter” from season two. Obi-Wan has brought his army to Saleucami in pursuit of General Grievous. Obi-Wan sincerely believes that if he can capture and defeat Grievous now, he can bring a speedy end to the Clone Wars. Meanwhile, Captain Rex is hit by a blaster shot from a sniper Commando Droid. While he recovers in a nearby farmhouse, he meets a clone that defected from the clone army. The deserter challenges Rex’s preconceived notions of choice and honor in this riveting episode of The Clone Wars. Ready for some more The Clone Wars discussion?
