Duchess Satine arrives on Coruscant and pleads for Mandalore’s neutrality while Death Watch plots with Count Dooku to engineer a Republic invasion in this episode of The Clone Wars.
The Clone Wars rage on! In this episode of our The Clone Wars re-watch, we are discussing episode 14 from season 2, “Duchess of Mandalore.” What Duchess Satine Kryze arrives on Courscant to plead Mandalore’s case for neutrality, she is blind sided with a plea from a respected advisor that Mandalore needs Republic intervention to handle the Death Watch crisis. Desperate to prevent a civil war on Mandalore, Satine goes on the run with a little help from Obi-Wan Kenobi to prove that Mandalore can stand alone in the face of the Death Watch threat.
In this fully armed and operational episode of Podcast Stardust, we discuss:
- Our overall thoughts on this episode of The Clone Wars,
- The plot that Death Watch and Count Dooku to engineer opposition to Duchess Satine and the Republic,
- The altered message from Deputy Minister Jerec and the Senate’s vote to occupy Mandalore,
- The banter and bickering between Satine and Jedi Master Obi-Wan Kenobi,
- Satine’s efforts to uncover the truth behind the message, and
- Some trivia behind Monument plaza.
