My friends and I are watching
Star Wars: The Clone Wars.
Every Tuesday, we will be featuring an episode from the series which
began in 2008 (as opposed to the one that started in 2003). All are
welcome to join us for all or parts of the fun.
Episode: "Assassin"
Series:
Star Wars: The Clone Wars
Season 3, Episode 7
Original Air Date: October 22, 2010
"Assassin" is an Ahsoka story and a particularly important one for developing her relationship with Padmé. The padawan has been assigned to protect the senator on a trip to Alderaan. During the visit, Ahsoka has visions of assassination attempts by the bounty hunter, Aurra Sing. In this case, Jedi intuition proves to be all too accurate. Padmé shows Ahsoka a great deal of trust and patience in this story, suggesting an almost sisterly bond between the two.
Jedi librarian Jocasta Nu makes a brief appearance early in the story, her third of four
Clone Wars appearances. The character first appeared in
Attack of the Clones, played by Alethea McGrath. In
The Clone Wars, she is voiced by Flo DiRe.
Flo Di Re appeared in 1998's
Mighty Joe Young. Earlier in her career she had guest spots on several popular television shows including
The Facts of Life,
Murder She Wrote and
Seinfeld.

Except I don't think that relationship ever goes anywhere. At least, I don't remember anything significant between the two of them as the series develops.
ReplyDeleteThat's too bad. There's definitely narrative potential there.
