“To Catch a Jedi” didn’t quite hold up the incredible adrenaline and ominous tone of last week’s episode, but seeing Ahsoka on the run continued to be a compelling and fascinating turn of events.
The trailer released last summer for The Clone Wars: Season 5 showed glimpses of Ahsoka fighting Asajj Ventress, so it was good that their initial confrontation gave way to an unexpected alliance between the two – and that Ahsoka both first suspected Ventress was behind the Jedi Temple bombing and then quickly realized that wasn’t the case.
Still one of my favorite characters on this show, Ventress again was a very fun, very morally murky presence, who still seemed utterly out for herself, but obviously not quite as nasty as when we first met her – Best shown when she bragged, after a confrontation with Clone Troopers, “See, didn’t kill one. It’s the new me.”
