Cookie: “Choose your enemies wisely, as they may be your last hope.” Obi-Wan might have some insight into that.
“Where could she be?” Ah, the ANH references.
That Jedi ship is an effective design. It does look very old while still being distinctly Star Wars.
Poor Ganodi. Having to hold onto probably the two heaviest fellow younglings. Not cool, guys.
Ah man. I liked that ship.
Heeeeeeeeeeeeere's Grievous! Out to prove the truth of the “enemy of my enemy” mantra.
Artoo, once again proving why you avoid the unique paint job a la Chopper and BB-8. Much easier infiltration. You don't have to use a stupid disguise like an overturned trash can. I'm not bitter.
1,000 generations and these are among the best younglings he's ever seen. Let's not overstate things here. And if it's true... well, things likely don't turn out well for this particular class.
Katooni: “I got your back!”
Hondo: “Great! I... feel so safe.”
Grievous has a pretty badass speeder.
Pod racing flashbacks in this chase sequence.
Well, at least the droids managed to take out a Weequay redshirt.
That crashed ship appears to be the Twilight's class of freighter being used as hidden entrance to Hondo's little shipyard.
Slave I with the OT paint job!
Artoo, causing a crash that probably should have killed everyone.
Huyang has a fun rapport with Artoo.
Grievous spidering up is a creepy approach.
Grievous getting blasted down to the ground by the Slave I is certainly not his finest hour. And fans of the Genndy version probably didn't like that Ahsoka lasts as long as she did in a fight with him, even this late in the series. Then again, even back on that show, Genndy tried to get across that Grievous depended much on surprise and intimidation to defeat Jedi. It didn't always seem that way on screen, but seeing as Mace immediately beat him and made him flee by Force Crushing his chest, maybe Dooku had a point. We can accept that Mace was exaggerated taking on an entire army on Dantooine by himself, but not that Grievous may have had a similar exaggeration on that show.
The shot of Hondo as he departs is really good. It's a very attractive show.
Ah, what a heartwarming ending. Just don't dwell on their impending fates.
Next... turns out droids are the Republic's “Secret Weapons”!
