Summary
Clone Force 99 are back with a mission that sees them return to the base of the infamous Count Dooku.
I enjoyed this episode through a nostalgic lens as it showed us Dooku’s castle from Clone Wars in a way it had never really been presented to us before and we saw new depths and layers to it.
I also liked the fact the Clones are talking about doing more and joining in more formally with the Rebellions efforts, I think in many senses this is the show setting things up for later in the season, but it is an interesting tease as it could go in so many different ways and could end up in a return of some of our favourite characters.
My criticism of this episode would come from the fact that it was a little slow, the action side of things definitely favours the part two of this two parter, but that is not to say that this episode is boring as things do happen just not as many as you would like.
Overall, a solid start to the season that opens a number of interesting doors.
3/5
Pros.
Talking about being involved in the wider Rebellion and teasing things to come
The return to Dooku’s castle
It is good to see the characters back in action
Cons.
It is a little slow at times and the action is a thin
There is some pacing issues with the episode as the relatively short runtime turns into a slog
