History Recap / StarWarsTheCloneWarsS5E20TheWrongJedi

%%* DarkActionGirl: Ventress and Barriss. %%(Zero-Context Example)%%

* BrokenPedestal: With the exception of Anakin and Plo Koon, the Jedi Order ends up becoming this to Ahsoka.

* BrokenPedestal: With the exception of Anakin, the Jedi Order ends up becoming this to Ahsoka.

* EasilyCondemned: Ahsoka feels betrayed by the Order she fought for, and can't forgive them.

* MythologyGag: Anakin's duel with Barriss mirrors the duel between Ventress and Anakin in ''WesternAnimation/StarWarsCloneWars'', down to Barriss being a female force-wielder DualWielding red lightsabers (which are Ventress' own, to boot) and Anakin taking an aggressive fighting stance midway through the fight and clearing drawing the Dark Side of the Force in order to best his opponent, foreshadowing his upcoming FaceHeelTurn to becoming Darth Vader.

* NiceJobBreakingItHero: The Council being forced to cut Ahsoka loose to save face along with her departure from the Jedi Order both leave Anakin without a confidant that he can trust, and ends up being one of the biggest factors behind [[Film/RevengeOfTheSith his turn to the Dark Side]]. The fact that the Jedi Council were indeed right about a fellow Jedi being the perpetrator doesn't help matters.

* NeverMyFault: Mace rationalizes Ahsoka's tribulations as the Force's way of testing her worthiness to become a Jedi Knight. Ahsoka, doesn't feel the same way,

* DramaticIrony: Palpatine gives a dramatic speech to the Senate court about how the Separatists have repeatedly infiltrated the Republic in order to destroy it from within. He's ostensibly talking about Ahsoka, but this is, of course, ''his own'' modus operandi, and ''the very court session he's presiding over'' is yet another part of it.

* WellIntentionedExtremist: Barriss Offee reveals that she was the one who bombed the Jedi Temple hangar because she feels the Jedi have failed in their duty as peacekeepers.

** The freaking ''Jedi Council'' has decided in advance that Ahsoka is guilty of the crimes she's been accused of, ''without'' even hearing her out first! (Obi-Wan is most vocal dissenter during the council meeting beforehand, but is overruled) Anakin even lampshades it:

* CallForward: Towards the end of their duel, Anakin quite clearly begins Force-choking Barriss—and earlier, he goes a bit further with Ventress. His fighting style even becomes Vader-like in their movements.

* NeverMyFault: Mace says Ahsoka's tribulations were the Force's way of testing her worthiness to become a Jedi Knight. Ahsoka, on the other hand, is unimpressed.
* NiceJobBreakingItHero: Mace's refusal to apologize for throwing Ahsoka under the bus to save face along with Ahsoka's departure from the Jedi Order both leave Anakin without a confidant that he can trust, and end up being one of the biggest factors behind [[Film/RevengeOfTheSith his turn to the Dark Side]]. The fact that the Jedi Council were indeed right about a fellow Jedi being the perpetrator doesn't help matters.

* NotMeThisTime: Anakin, like Ahsoka, assumes Ventress must be the traitor and goes straight after her. Anakin is reluctant to believe her claim that she was helping Ahsoka, and had her lightsabers stolen by the real culprit, but when she mentions Ahsoka has spoken to Barriss, Anakin goes to investigate just in case.
* PapaWolf: Anakin goes to great lengths to prove Ahsoka's innocence.

* ScrewThisImOuttaHere: Despite being cleared of all charges and invited back to the Jedi Order, Ahsoka leaves them for good, feeling disillusioned by their behavior.

* DarkActionGirl: Ventress and Barriss.

* DownerEnding: Ahsoka leaves the Jedi Order, feeling betrayed by the Jedi Council and after nearly getting executed thanks to Barriss. Anakin is devastated and has lost much of his faith in the Jedi. And Palpatine has Anakin more isolated and angry than ever.

* WhatHappenedToTheMouse:
** This is the last time Ventress is seen in the show proper. While her story arc continued in the novel Dark Disciple, for those who don't read the book she just seems to abruptly disappear from the entire narrative of the show.
** Barriss' fate is left up in the air, not showing whether or not she is sentenced to death by the Senate, punished by the Jedi Council, or how otherwise she is dealt with. What happens to her after Order 66 and beyond is also still unknown.
