Neither did I. Sort of nothing there that progresses any story line other than telling us Anakin is a jealous mofo. I suppose they need to do stuff like this to keep everything in line with Anakin's progression into Darth Vader. Still, kinda felt bad for the traitor dude. He was lovesick and just wanted to make some dolla bills, y'all.

So take it the U.S./Grey market is an episode ahead?

Shit. I totally forgot the episodes I've been watching are a week ahead. Saw this last weekend. I have edited my post to include a spoiler warning. Sorry if I ruined it for you jacobot.

That's ok... Last season it was 3 shows ahead.

I liked this ep. So it didn't have action, it was still good.

I liked getting a better understanding of what Anakin and Padme's relationship was actually like. Episode wasn't overly exciting but I didn't mind it. Though I am keeping a tally on how many times Padme needs a vaccine for something.

So I'm finally getting in some thoughts about this episode......wow, what a dismal effort. Simply the poorest episode to come out thus far. It's impossibly puddled with these notions about the Banking Clan and the Trade Federation not being a full part of the Seperatist forces being lead by Dooku.................unbelivable is the only word that comes to mind.

Obi-Wan spied on the very meeting where the leadership of the Corporate Alliance presumably signed a treaty with Dooku, now they are back with the Republic.

Not only is this series erasing parts of the EU from the timeline but the entire Geonosis arc from AOTC's as well. Great job

Yeah, somebody could write a story to explain all this, about how Obi-Wan forgot to report his findings to the Republic, about how the Jedi Order forgot to mention that Nute Gunray took part in an attempted exucution of a Republic Senator, how the Republic then declared war on the Seperatist Forces at Geonosis.........

The entire idea of the Clone Wars is tied up in these simple ideas, about how the Corporate Alliance lead Seperatist army was fighting against the Republic after Geonosis. It makes no sense that the creative team would look to muddle this in any way, shape or form..........

To quote Lott Dodd from Episode 1:

"This is outrageous, I object!"

Your assuming that the IG banking clan of Muunilist was the only one. It's entirely possible that there is another banking clan on Scipio. And the Corporate alliance is an organization of several mega-corps. It's also possible it's member companies split into seperatist and loyalist corporate alliances.

I mean there are huge investment banks in the member countries of the european union.

Or they just didn't give a s--t.
