I give this episode a 9, this was a pretty good episode. I liked how they set things up for the movie, with the heavy guns and explaining the situation on Christophosis more. Not to mention the hunt for the traitor, and how angry Rex and Cody looked that there could possibly be a clone traitor.

Normally I hate Ventress appearances, since just about all of her appearances start with her being evil, a few lightsaber clashes, then either she runs away or the heroes run away. But this time, I didn't mind so much, since her purpose was to keep Obi-wan and Anakin away from the base.

This episode does create an interesting precedent for the future. So far in most EU works, clonese just gunned down their Jedi once Order 66 was called (or tried to kill the Jedi). If loyalty to the Jedi takes precedence over Order 66... well, we know what Cody does in the future, but Rex is up for debate.

I thought the episode was great. One of my personal favorites. Cool action once again and Christophsis is really brought to life. I particularly liked the sequence where Anakin and Obi-Wan are riding swoops through the ruins of the planet. Great visuals there.

This episode was pretty cool. It set up the movie very well and I liked that they put in General Loathsom and the Trident. The idea of a clone traitor was well-executed and the fist fight between Rex, Cody, and the traitor was great. I loved hearing the Christophsis theme again and the Coruscant chase music during the fistfight.
