The instant Padmé mentions Clovis' name, Anakin immediately flies into a petty, jealous rage that lasts for the rest of the arc, even drawing threatening to leave Padmé in her cell rather than take him with her, and when he later actually ''meets'' Clovis, he draws his lightsaber on him. Padmé is not impressed.

Senator Padmé Amidala has travelled to the planet Scipio, headquarters of the [=InterGalactic=] Banking Clan, in order to do business on behalf of the Republic to secure aid for the huge numbers of war refugees. However, the bounty hunter Embo is also on-planet, sent by his current employer to track Padmé. But when the ruling council of the bank requests that she meet with their special representative to discuss the terms of her transaction, she's unexpectedly reunited with her former colleague Rush Clovis, who tells her that the Banking Clan is secretly on the verge of collapse because the economics of the war don't add up... and although Padmé doesn't believe him, Clovis insists that someone is trying to silence him, because ''he'' is Embo's real target. Padmé eventually decides to trust Clovis, and work with him to get into the vault. But after succeeding, Padmé is arrested for espionage, and Anakin Skywalker arrives to get her out of jail.

!!Tropes:

* AssassinationAttempt: Embo makes several on Clovis' life. As it turns out, he wasn't actually paid to ''kill'' Clovis at all, which is why none of them succeed.
* BackForTheDead: Teckla Minnau returns for the first time since [[Recap/StarWarsTheCloneWarsS3E11PursuitOfPeace "Pursuit of Peace"]], only to be killed by Embo.
* TheBusCameBack: Senator Rush Clovis returns after having last been seen in trouble with Lott Dod in [[Recap/StarWarsTheCloneWarsS2E4SenateSpy "Senate Spy"]].
* CallBack:
** This story arc follows up on the deregulation of the banks in [[Recap/StarWarsTheCloneWarsS3E11PursuitOfPeace "Pursuit of Peace"]].
** Padmé insists that Clovis be removed from the negotiations because, as she saw back in "Senate Spy", he's a known Separatist and traitor to the Republic.
** Clovis remembers Anakin, but is surprised to learn who he really is since he was disguised as a pilot the last time they met.
* CrazyJealousGuy: Anakin is even ''more'' unpleasant with Clovis than he was the last time they met, even drawing his lightsaber on him. Padmé is not impressed.
* CutTheJuice: Clovis' plan is to set off an explosion that will cut the vault's power, allowing Padmé a brief window of time to steal data proving that the Banking Clan is running dry on funds.
* DeathGlare: Anakin gives several of these to and when hearing about Clovis.
* {{Foreshadowing}}: Embo has been shown in his previous appearances to be a highly competent and skilled BountyHunter, but he fails in every single attempt to kill Clovis. It's revealed in the last scene that Embo wasn't actually hired to kill him at all, but scare him.
* GunshipRescue: R2 arrives with the ship ''just'' after the downed speeder Anakin, Padmé and Clovis are on goes over a cliff, with the three of them landing on the outside.
* LaserSight: Embo uses one on Teckla just before he shoots her, giving her enough time for an OhCrap moment.
* MatchCut: From Padmé's circular hair ornament to a circle on the door leading to the Council of Five's chamber.
* OhCrap:
** Teckla, when Embo's LaserSight hits her.
** Anakin in Clovis' residence just before Embo fires, yelling at the others to get down.
* ShieldSurf: Embo uses his shield-hat as a makeshift snowboard to pursue Clovis down a mountain.
* SpikesOfDoom: During the ChaseScene, Embo shoots out icicles on arches the downed airspeeder is passing below to try and crush Anakin, Padmé and Clovis.
* TitleDrop:
-->'''Palpatine:''' Perhaps then in this scenario it would be best for you to trust an old friend, and do as he asks.
* TruceZone: The area of Scipio surrounding the Banking Clan's main vault is a neutral zone where all business is conducted, since the Banking Clan is secretly playing both sides.
* TwoKeyedLock: The main vault can only be opened by all five members of the bank council touching glowing spheres inset in the door.
* WhamShot: At the end, Embo contacts his employer... ''[[BigBad Darth Sidious]]''.
* YouHaveToBelieveMe: Padmé isn't inclined to believe Clovis given what happened the last time, although he insists that their paths have to count for something.
