I give this episode a 7, it was an ok episode, I guess I just liked the first two episodes more. Not that this was bad, just a few things seemed odd to me. At the end, I thought a droid said the Malevolence's hyperdrive was disable when the ion cannon blew up, so I don't see how the ship could escape from Obi-wan's fleet (unless they do a really fast repair jo.

I'm wondering if Dooku meant for the ship to be destroyed or not, since he's no longer on board. He probably won't want to lose Grevious too soon, but then again, that's the trend of the whole Clone Wars era, even if its ends up a Republic victory, it still plays furthers Sidious' plans.

This episode is the best so far! Loved the references to the OT. I'm a huge fan of SW space battles and we finally got to see a Clone Wars one and it really delivered. Can't wait til next week for the conclusion of this arc.

This was one of the best episode so far. Really flowed well with a good pace and I liked the ANH references. Ahsoka really seems to be coming into her own. While she does come off as a bit nagging, she really was showing far more compassion than Anakin for the clones.

This episode.. wasn't as great as I expected. It was mostly a space battle/mission, and it just felt 'bleh'. I guess I was hoping at some point the characters would get out of the ships and on their feet, or Ventress would appear or something more interesting would happen. So overall, I give this episode a 6/10.
