Dooku had already shown flirtations with the Dark Side prior to this, but his killing of Yaddle despite her being his peer marks the point of no return for him and lays the foundation for him to become the man that engineered a war which cost untold billions of lives, only to be a mere stepping stone for [[Characters/StarWarsDarthVaderAndServants someone more powerful]].]]

While it is certainly possible that the Inquisitor here was simply some kind of alien species composed of gas and is wearing a pressure suit, which has been seen in Star Wars before, it can still be rather jarring to most general audiences for the seemingly humanoid Inquisitor to appear be air or gas in a suit without any explanation. The fact no one in the scene comments or elaborates on this makes it all the more weird. ]]

** Ahsoka is shown to have snuck in to attend Padme's funeral on Naboo. When Bail finds her, her voice breaks as she says she took the risk of attending because "she was [her] friend". This was just another gut punch Ahsoka had to absorb after the trauma of Order 66, her loyal men ultimately perishing in their attempt to kill her out of no free will of their own, and learning of the fall of the Jedi and the Republic - and the quite likely deaths of Anakin, Obi-Wan, and all her other friends.

The worst part? She doesn’t realize it was ''Anakin'' who killed Padmé.

"Resolve" has an 8.6 rating on IMDb; in fact, it's the highest rated episode behind only "The Sith Lord" (and, for what it's worth, "Resolve" is my personal favourite of the set). I can definitely see contention over changes regarding the Ahsoka novel, but I feel that's already covered by the other entries, and so the episode probably isn't quite a case of So Okay Its Average.


* SoOkayItsAverage: "Life and Death" and "Resolve" are seen as okay at best, having added little of importance to Ahsoka's story and, in the latter's case, having made a few contradictions regarding events that were taken from the ''Literature/StarWarsAhsoka'' novel.

Not sure what was so great about it, but I'm pretty sure that "Life and Death" was also considered pretty mediocre.

* SalvagedStory: A lot of ''Legends'' fans took issue with Dooku's characterization in ''The Clone Wars'', with him coming across as a [[CardCarryingVillain card-carrying]] [[DastardlyWhiplash Saturday morning]] [[ColdHam cartoon villain]] in contrast to his more subtle and complex behavior in the Legends continuity. This series brings him closer to his Legends counterpart by showing his past as a [[FallenHero well-intentioned yet flawed Jedi]] who tragically [[KnightTemplar falls to the dark side]] thanks to the Republic's corruption and Palatine's manipulation.

While it's possible this may be justified, as the Inquisitors are meant to hunt down ill-trained Padawans or low-level Jedi Knights, but are way out of their league against properly trained Force wielders, especially one of Ahsoka's caliber, it doesn't mean it's not underwhelming.
