It’s the exciting conclusion to “Downfall of a Droid,” part of the first season of The Clone Wars series. In “Duel of the Droids,” we learn:
>>R3-S6 wasn’t incompetent, it was a Separatist spy.
>>General Grievous doesn’t like to be hit up for more money
>>R2-D2 is packed with secrets, but we don’t know whether they’ve now been erased
>>Anakin sees Artoo as more than a droid – as a friend. But interestingly, they’re never in the same scene in the Original Trilogy, so we never get to see a reaction (or lack thereof)
>>Anakin is as hot-headed as ever, ignoring Obi-Wan’s orders
>>R2 can fight with the best of them, and takes out R3 with ease
Also, we chat about Daisy Ridley and John Boyega’s accents, in light of a casting director discovery (via Star Wars 7 News)
