Premise[]
R2-D2 is lost during a fierce space battle -- and Anakin must find him before the Separatists discover the Jedi military secrets locked in his memory banks.
Synopsis[]
In a plan to lure Grievous out after he has been attacking Republic fleets, Obi-Wan has Anakin and his fleet wait out in the Bothawui system. When Grievous' ships reveal themselves and attacks the fleet Anakin attacks them from behind, making quick work of the Separatist ships. However, as Grievous escapes his destroyed fleet Anakin follows only to be knocked off course and unconscious.
Upon waking up, Anakin realizes that R2-D2, who was in his ship at the time, was not found in the wreckage. As Artoo contained battle plans and strategies for the Republic, Anakin had to find his droid, and taking Ahsoka with him, the two set out.
