Chapter 25-Part 1
Chapter 25 Part 1 is the fifth episode in Season 3 of the Star Wars: Clone Wars animated television series. The episode originally aired on Cartoon Network on March 25, 2005.
Yoda and Mace Windu continue to cut a swathe through the invading droid army on Coruscant. They begin to wonder why such a massive invasion has not attempted to attack the Jedi Temple or the Republic Senate, and realize that the invasion is a distraction from the Confederacy's real target—Palpatine. Windu jumps aboard an overflying Republic gunship, and orders the pilot to turn around.
Palpatine and his three Jedi protectors reach a hover capsule in a tunnel, and Shaak Ti orders the others to get to the bunker while she holds off their pursuers. She ignites her lightsaber as a group of MagnaGuards troop out of the darkness.
On Nelvaan, Anakin Skywalker tries to fight off the Nelvaan mutants without hurting them. The latest subject manages to burst free of his restraints, smashes the tank and rips the cybernetic chestplates off two of the Nelvannians. Anakin soon gets the idea and cuts the rest off using his lightsaber. The half-mutated Nelvaan points to a crystal in the middle of the energy chamber which is causing the damage to the planet.
As Shaak Ti fights the MagnaGuards, she is deprived of her lightsaber and nearly overwhelmed. But she manages to turn the tables by obtaining an electrostaff and destroy several of them with her new weapon. She then manages to reclaim her lightsaber and masterfully wields it in conjunction with the electrostaff.
The Nelvaan warriors are rampaging through the facility, tearing battle droids apart with their bare hands, and freeing their comrades from captivity. Anakin leaps to the top of the generator, then lowers himself into the crystal chamber. Screaming in agony, he reaches his prosthetic arm into the energy sphere, uses the Force to pull the crystal from its socket, and then shatters it into a thousand shards. The energy surge causes the generator to explode, and Anakin leaps to safety, his arm destroyed.
