Episode Quotes
Narrator: Diabolical defeat! Though Republic victories outnumber their losses, the Jedi have been unable to stop Separatist advances in the Outer Rim. The ever-elusive General Grievous stays one step ahead of his opponents. With thousands of droid armies at his command, the Jedi can never predict where Grievous will strike next until now...
Anakin Skywalker: [Anakin and Adi Galia are surrounded by Commando Droids] Well, at least they're not Destroyer Droids.
Obi-Wan Kenobi: [while fighting a IG-100 Magna Guard] I hear a lot of talking, General, but in the final accounting, what does all the talk get you? A futile quest for power? A mutilated body? And your place as Dooku's errand boy!
General Grievous: I'm no errand boy, and I'm not in this war for Dooku's politics. I am the leader of the most powerfull droid army the galaxy has ever seen. [urges another Magna Guard forward]
Obi-Wan Kenobi: [Obi-Wan finished off the Magna Guard with two swift strokes and picks up it's electro staff] An army with no loyalty, no spirit. Just programming. What have you to show for all your power, what have you to gain?
General Grievous: The future. A future where there are no Jedi. [attacks]

Trivia
- This is our first look at the newly redesigned Commander Wolffe, who has suffered an eye injury since his last unhelmeted appearance in "Rising Malevolence," necessitating a cybernetic replacement.
- In an early draft Eeth Koth was to be killed by General Grievous but Dave Filoni decided to safe him so the character could be used again in subsequent stories.
- The 2003 book 'Inside the Worlds of Attack of the Clones' reported the death of Jedi Masters Eeth Koth and Sora Bulq in an exploding Gunship during the battle of Geonosis. However, since Bulq soon reappeared in Star Wars comics by Dark Horse, Dave Filoni asked George Lucas if he could bring back Koth as well.
- The 'Jedi fortune cookie' message that opens the show reads "For everything you gain, you lose something else."
- The Jedi war room includes a number of new Jedi character models, including a Weequay Jedi (labeled Sora Bulq in design documents), a Nikto Jedi (labeled "Makis Shaalas"), a Roonan Jedi (named Halsey, though at one point named "Tukker Val Loo"), a new Twi'lek Jedi (Finn Ertay) and a blue Mon Calamari (Eekar Oki). The long-tailed beak nosed Cosian is Tera Sinube, who will feature in a future episode, "Lightsaber Lost."
