A plot to kidnap the chancellor by Eval Moralo that has been thwarted…? The Jedi decide to form their own plot. Obi Wan is shot and falls to his apparent death. We know falling is a jedi’s greatest skill, but what this episode presupposes is, maybe it isn’t? Obi Wan has a funeral and Anakin is absolutely losing his shit. Meanwhile Rako Hardeen starts bragging in a bar that he shot Obi Wan to general acclaim. Yoda and Mace are worried and Obi Wan is alive!? On a scale of 1 to 10, with 1 being a soccer flop and 10 being Mankind in the ‘98 Hell in a cell match, our scientific survey gives Obi Wan’s performance a 7.4. Obi Wan undergoes a Face/Off procedure and takes the place of Rako Hardeen who was employed by the jedi the whole time.
Faako and crew make it to Nal Hutta and promptly crash into a swamp. Anakin and Ahsoka show up on Nal Hutta. Palpatine tells Mace and Yoda where Anakin went and suggests that they have more faith in him. Yoda immediately wilts and suggests they come clean because he doesn’t have the stones for the Great Game. Lord Palmerston he is not. Anakin and Ahsoka arrive in time to see a behatted figure entering a space ship and Ahsoka correctly deduces it’s Cad Bane because, and I quote, ‘who else would wear a hat like that.' She’s the best. A cool battle with Cad Bane happens and Faako runs right into Anakin. Anakin promptly knees Obi Wan right in nuts which just proves that he knows subliminally that it's actually Obi Wan.
We open on bounty hunters arriving on Serrano where a brutal contest is about to take place. Obi-Wan, as Rako Hardeen, henceforth known as Fauxbi-Wan (not Fako), and Cad Bane are introduced to Dooku where they accept the challenge ahead. They're going to enter the eponymous box, a towering cube in front of them. With the final five selected, Dooku reveals the plan to capture the Chancellor on Naboo during a festival and using this as leverage to release Sepratist prisoners.
Obi-Wan as Fauxbi-Wan travels to Naboo with the other bounty hunters to capture Chancellor Palpatine at the festival of light.
Dooku and the final five go over their plan, and "slip into" their holo-disguises as clone guards.
Fauxbi-Wan, now free from prying eyes and ears, radios Mace and informs him of the plan. Palpatine takes the podium, surrounded by ray shields. The Parwan bounty hunter is able to slip through the shields and causes an explosion. Mace orders two guards to get him out of there on a nearby speeder. The two guards create a bait-and-switch with Palpatine and escape. Anakin, coming face to face with an altered Fauxbi-Wan, is angry he's been lied to by the council and wonders how many other lies they've told him.
Obi-Wan, questioning potential lies told to him by Dooku and Eval, discovers a bug in his sniper rifle case and knows Dooku has heard everything.
Meanwhile, Anakin and Palpatine are surprised by Dooku and some droids. Dooku and Anakin fight while Palapatine is restrained. Obi-Wan, showing up just in time, helps Anakin to save the day. Dooku, in a final attempt to plant seeds of lies and anger in Anakin by feeling undervalued by the jedi council, proceeds to levy some expert level snark on Anakin to rile him up.
