And it never occurred to anyone on the Jedi Council that it MIGHT be a bad idea to pretend that the Chosen One's master was murdered and not let him in on the secret? The same guy who has all those attachment/loss issues?

I thought it was a risky, if not stupid, move to send Anakin to capture disguised Obi-Wan and put him in prison. Judging from Ep.II, Anakin would have killed the guy who "killed" Obi-Wan! And the sucky part would have been that he unintentionally killed his own master!

In the new NEW blu ray version of tpm Anakin whispers," that's not you Yoda, is it?" before he beheads dooku.

I had no clue that was boba attacking Obi in the prison until I saw Bossk coming to the rescue.  Well I guess I kinda did - goofy kid.  Is this show done once Maul comes back?

this arc will feature a  game of identities... a risky plot indeed for the guionists who must deal between the mistery of Obi-Wan new role and the obvious leit motifs, the series has established for Kenobi.

The way Obi become the hunter, a surrealist alternative to cosmetic surgery and more bizarre when he swallows the communicative device to mimec the killer´s voice.

They could have fancy this chamaleonic method to other character, is a wrong mixture of Zam Wessel skills with Kenobi capabilities. The changes of a character don´t need to be always graphic, more interesting will be a moment when he could have turned to a more aggresive manner, intead of his calm way.

To sinthetyse I don´t like the idea of a main character becoming a plasteline guy.

Love it! Except they'll never make one for the animated line, so more of a cruel tease than anything.  :(

I'm ok with that...  it'd be horribly small IMO.  I've got the slickest deck-by-deck plans on a Hound's Tooth and love it.  My old ship customizing buddy darthschroeder did a SWEET scaled one too. 

Most impressive.  IIRC he had it with him on display at the FFURG booth at C3.

Ian Abercrombie, the voice of CW Palpatine passed away today at 75.  :(

Tonight's episode was decent but seemed like mostly filler, especially  Obi-Wan getting tortured and Bane being forced to land.

Did make we wish I gotten a Nikto guard figure...oh, well.

Obi-Wan almost got them all killed crash landing the ship. Another bit that seemed forced, what did he gain from it...time?

Sy Snootles cameo.

LOL, they finally justified that Nikto guard figure with some screen time.

I always love seeing the Jedi T-6 shuttle make an appearance because it helps keep hope alive they will one day make this. It's already logged way more appearances than that Mandalorian Assault Transport they allegedly made.

So I guess Palps wasn't in on the Jedi plan either?

So there are no fuel gauges on starships these days? ...

I want to watch this episode again just to go through and wonder how many background characters I would actually buy (animated Gammy anyone?) and which I will have to live without.

I'm liking how Obi-Wan always gets the **** beat out of him now for some reason.  The um...Sail-y-wing Barge thing was sure different

Actually, that ship is reminiscent of Lando's ship, the Lady Luck, which is from the EU.  Gotta love how they're paying homage to some of these things by way of the show.

Nice to see gamorrean guards, nal hutta and more vivid fighting choreography on this episode
Looks as the producers are trusting more on Anakin skills, he was about to defeat Bane with all his gadgets.

Wasn't "Rako Hardeen's" helmet based on concept art Boba Fett?
