* RayOfHopeEnding: The episode ends mostly on a downer as the Republic has suffered one of its worst naval defeats in galactic history with almost the entire Republic fleet making first contact at Pzob being massacred by the Imperials, while Spikes is left shell-shocked by the deaths of so many of his fellow clones. However, there is a glimmer of hope for Spikes in the form of Anakin Skywalker, who promises him that they will get the people responsible for this and asks Spikes for his help, to which Spikes readily agrees.

* OhCrap: Dr. Shina's reaction to seeing the full size of the Imperial armada that exits the Warp shortly after the ''Atlas of Steel'' explodes. She gasps in horror with her eyes bulged wide and pleads with Renphi to withdraw their fleets, when the episode before had her advocating for the Republic and KDY fleets to surprise attack the "outsiders" during FirstContact in order to get the drop on them.

-->'''Imperial Captain:''' We will destroy the ship and take the enemy with us. It is better to die for the Emperor than to live for yourself!

Catastrophe has struck. At the direction of Supreme Chancellor Palpatine, Captain Kraken has utilized the tampered hyperdrive aboard his Venator to hyperspace ram the ''Atlas of Steel''. But there has, in this action, been made a grave error. Both the good Captain and the Dark Lord have mistaken the 12-kilometer-long behemoth as a capital ship of the enemy's armada.
Yet this assumption could not be further from the truth, as the ''Atlas of Steel'' served as a civilian and cargo transport, and the sight of its bleeding carcass spilling into space is the very first thing to greet the stranded Imperial forces as they arrive within the system shortly there after. Doomed to war, yet unwilling to commit, Jedi General Renphi attempts a peaceable solution...

!!Tropes in this episode include:
* ShutUpGunshot: When the Imperial freighter ''Atlas of Steel'' self-destructs, it creates a bright explosion that quickly spreads out towards the surrounding Republic fleet. Spikes, the clone captain of a Venator in this fleet, orders his ship to go into full reverse to escape the blast radius. But his bridge crew is too distracted [[DeerInTheHeadlights gawking at the explosion]], so he fires his blaster pistol into the floor to get their attention and repeats his orders, jolting them back into action.
