THE MOMENTS: THE CLONE WARS (2008)

------------------

Episode 6x07: Crisis at the Heart

-

1) Rescue Again. Much of the episode involves the intricacies which reveal this whole Clovis mess to be a plot by Sidious to put the Banking Clan under the full control of the Supreme Chancellor. To secure this hold, and to recover Padmé from the planet, Palpatine dispatches a fleet led by Anakin to the planet Scipio.

-

2) You're Okay. During the battle Anakin finds Padmé, whom Clovis desperately takes hostage. A fighter crashes into their building, causing it to collapse. Anakin grips Padmé's and Clovis’s hands as they hang off an edge, but can't hold them for long. Clovis gives up his hold, falling to his death. Anakin pulls her to safety: "it’s okay, you’re okay," he soothes. Padmé says she’s sorry, again and again; Anakin takes her in a comforting embrace and tells her it's all over.

-

3) In the Senate. The final moment of the episode is Anakin and Padmé watching from her Senate pod as Palpatine takes control of the banks, indicating they must have talked at some point.

While I'm glad for SOME reconciliation, I don't think this was enough given the amount of turmoil around separating them in the prior episodes. I suppose you could argue that this is another issue that Anakin and Padmé just refused to talk about between them, but - if even that was the case, I think we needed something directly addressing that.

So ends our couple’s run on Clone Wars... for now. I fervently hope we get some better moments between them in the upcoming season 7. If nothing else, because I find it hard to imagine how they go from this arc to their gooey lovey-doveyness at the start of ROTS, not to mention Padmé being pregnant. :P
