Loved this episode! The brief glimpses of Anakin's rage in the episode were cool as well.

I give it an 8.

Gave it a 7.

Interesting episode with R2-D2 being abducted by the Separatists and the search for him. And the assassin droids are really cool. But what is with the goofy music in certain places in this episode? It doesn't even sound like Star Wars music.

I give this episode a 6.

Overall, it's an ok episode. I loved the fleet action at the beginning, along with Anakin's tactics that turned the tide. I'm not much caring for the apparent abrupt shift in the war, I haven't minded Republic victories, but here, we just suddenly hear "Grevious is winning!

And honestly, I hated Ahsoka in this episode. I've never loved her, but I didn't hate her... at least not until now.

Nice lightsaber combat, although I think they overplayed Ahsoka's strength again when she slashed that droid who almost shot Anakin and Anakin didn't seem aware of it

Personally, I think this was one of the worst episode in the series so far. This episode just fell short of my expectations. The ending also felt way too rushed and sudden. It wasn't the suspenseful ending I was expecting, it felt more like the writers had crammed as much as they could into the episode.

Overall, not the show's strongest point, though I give it an extra point or two simply for the presence of Grievous. So I voted for 3/10.

GREAT series!!!

This episode was pretty good overall. I felt the animation was a bit off, also the episode felt a little rushed, and some of the music was weird. This space battle scenes, however, looked fantastic. My favorite thing about Star Wars is the space battles and this episode delivered, I just wish we could've seen a little more of the V-19's, but I'm sure we will.

Whoa, Thim, I'm afraid I'm gonna have to remove those links you posted, as they're kinda illegal and I don't wanna get sued by Lucasfilms or something. I've left Hulu and Starwars.com as they're legal to post.

I liked this episode, thought it was fairly tight. Great action, very cool space battles. I was thrown off by the Matrix Kung-Fu music but otherwise the action was great. Liked seeing a darker Anakin. Ahsoka was pretty cute here too. I give this episode a 8/10.
