* DidntThinkThisThrough: As Yoda bitterly notes, the Jedi Council apparently never considered telling Anakin about how they were involved in faking Obi-Wan's death after it was safe to do so, even though they know how much Anakin is ruled by emotion compared to other Jedi.

Added DiffLines:

* CallForward: Palpatine manipulates Anakin by preying on his fears that the Jedi Council don't trust him, just as he will in ''Film/RevengeOfTheSith''.


Added DiffLines:

* RightHandVersusLeftHand: Invoked by Palpatine, who sends Anakin to Nal Hutta to deal with "Rako Hardeen" under the pretence that merely tracking the fugitives isn't enough, as though unaware of the Jedi Council's actual plan. Palpatine, of course, is perfectly aware that "Hardeen" is actually an undercover Obi-Wan and is deliberately interfering in the hope that one or both Jedi will be killed.

* WretchedHive: While it is to be expected from the Hutt homeworld, this episode makes it clear that Nal Hutta is a hub for criminal activity, between [[HonestJohnsDealership shady merchants]], thugs willing to mug you, and people just trying to lay low. As Cad Bane put it, ''everyone'' in the town of Bilbousa is an outlaw.

* PoorCommunicationKills: Anakin and Ahsoka are kept out of the loop regarding Obi-Wan's faked death and undercover mission, which almost gets all three of them killed when the Chancellor overrules the Jedi Council and allows Anakin to pursue "Rako Hardeen" himself. To sell Obi-Wan's death, the Jedi needed Anakin's reaction to look natural, but could have told him the truth at any point after the event, as Yoda notes too late.
