Podcast Stardust #997: The Clone Wars – “Hunt for Ziro” 0309

by Podcast Stardust

Obi-Wan Kenobi teams up with Jedi Knight Quinlan Vos to hunt down Ziro the Hutt, but they aren’t the only ones tracking him down in this episode of The Clone Wars.

This week, our The Clone Wars re-watch turns to an episode set in the aftermath of the season one finale. Ziro the Hutt has escaped from Republic custody, and now Jedi Knights Obi-Wan Kenobi and Quinlan Vos are sent to bring him back. However, the Jedi aren’t the only ones interested in the Hutt. A former romantic interest helps him escape from the Hutt families on Nal Hutta, and Cad Bane is hired to track Ziro down once again. The race is on to apprehend Ziro, but an unexpected person has the inside track. We’re breaking down the “Hunt for Ziro” in this episode of Podcast Stardust.

In this fully armed and operational episode of Podcast Stardust, we discuss:

  • Our overall thoughts on “Hunt for Ziro,”
  • The introduction of Jedi Knight Quinlan Vos and his background,
  • The Indiana Jones inspiration for the beginning of this episode,
  • The five Hutt families on Nal Hutta,
  • Sy Snootles and how she subverts the viewers expectations,
  • Mama Hutt – Ziro’s mother,
  • Cad Bane’s role in the episode, and more.
