Geonosis

Dimensionally, at its widest point, the base is approximately 17 inches wide, and then it's about 15 inches deep.

It is a Geonosis-inspired landscape complete with mud spires and hard-cell class transport ships.

And then this is arguably the more important part, the actual LAAT.

Four resin ball turrets are situated throughout the ship on the wings and next to the fuselage.

The next question...

Which secretly separatist-sympathizing senator, say that six times fast, socializing inadvertently alerted the Republic to the existence of a new droid factory, prompting the second battle of Geonosis?

Mina Bonteri was a Separatist.

She was not there.

Ana Khan Zafar was the Rhodian Senator, which featured in the early parts of Clone Wars, but did not, um, didn't get as far as the Second Battle of Geonosis.

I have no clue who Hallie Bertoni is, so my only answer was Resh Clovis.

So I, with this one, was a eeny, meeny, miny, moe between Hailey and Rush.

This is not the first time we've seen, uh, an arc about brain-controlling parasites.

One of our favorite arcs in Clone Wars is the brain-controlling parasite arc coming after the, uh, Geonosis arc, uh, where...

Uh, it's not even a whole arc.

It's just the one episode called Brain Parasites where Barriss Offee and Ahsoka are on the ship with the clones, and everybody gets brain parasited by, um, uh, what's her face? Uh, I keep wanting to say Aphra now, which is Ventress.

By and large, you'll find people that care less about episodes one and two of Star Wars, but they just want to feel like they're on Naboo.

They want to see Geonosis.

They want to see Coruscant and, like, hear all the sound effects that they grew up on and this and that.

There are things that just connect with people that extend beyond the story.

The psychological toll of that moment is immense.

Boba's physical paralysis on that conveyor belt is a direct physiological mirror of the emotional paralysis he's been trapped in since Geonosis.

Oh, wow.

That's a really good point.

And there he is, standing in the center of the room.

Mace Windu.

The Jedi Master who decapitated his father on the dusty sands of Geonosis.

The emotional culmination of his entire life up to this point.

The council assigns each master specific areas of investigation.

Battle records from Geonosis, Kamino, and Jabim.

Supply manifests from the past two years.

Communication logs from key strategic meetings.

Over the following weeks, the Jedi investigation gains momentum and depth.

Each master's research adds pieces to an increasingly horrifying puzzle.

Geonosis, Kamino, Jabiim, Monoliths.

In every major engagement, we can now identify strategic decisions that favor prolonged conflict over decisive Republic victory.

Let's cover kind of how she started as Anakin Skywalker's that we didn't know about in the movies, but now we do.

So at age 14, just a few months after the Battle of Geonosis as seen in Attack of the Clones, so just two or three months after Attack of the Clones, she was sent to the planet Christophis to meet her new mentor, which both Anakin and Obi-Wan assumed was gonna be Obi-Wan Kenobi because he just lost to Padawan, right? Like Anakin is now a Jedi Knight, right? But it's actually Anakin's Padawan.

And Yoda wanted Ahsoka to be Anakin's apprentice, like specifically.

Why do you think that is?

Me too.

Um, so again, we can't talk about everything she did in the clone wars, but we did want to highlight some of the missions we felt were very important to her and could be important to Ahsoka.

So, um, Off the bat, she formed a friendship with Padawan Barriss Offee in the second battle of Geonosis.

So they basically go back to Geonosis.

yeah

but the clone factory that they're discussing here yes is uh the centerpiece of our next several episodes on geonosis

yeah so season two episode five landing at point rain Lots of shooting on Geonosis.

That's basically it.

There's Master Mundi, the guy with the big head is there.
