Bridging the gap between Star Wars Episode II and Episode III, Cartoon Network airs the 25th mini-episode of Genndy Tartakovsky’s The Clone Wars animated shorts. 
The Jedi fight an all out battle to protect Palpatine – but Grievous and his droid bodyguards are too powerful and too numerous. Anakin frees the captured Nelvaanian warriors and exacts vengeance against the Techno-Guild scientists. After their mission is completed, Mace summons them back to Coruscant, as the battle continues . . .

Notes: The events of Clone Wars: Volume II are meant to lead directly into Episode III: Revenge of the Sith. Anakin’s knighting, the beginning of the Battle of Coruscant and Palpatine’s kidnapping are also recounted in the prose novel “Labyrinth Of Evil”; a further version of these events would be presented in the successor Clone Wars series from Lucas Animation. Those attempting to reconcile any or all of these accounts are advised to stock up on the headache medication of their choice.
