The Seps’ big fish here is Tamson, a shark-like alien who attacks his victims very much like a real shark does.
The Quarren don’t want to recognize him and they quickly ally themselves with the Separatists. The Mon Cala king is murdered and his teen son is now in charge. The Mon Cala (name change!) and the Quarren live out the rivalry first concocted in West End Games’ RPG material, torn apart by the question over whether aioli dipping sauce is better than the traditional tomato-based cocktail sauce. Two diplomats–this time it’s Anakin and Padmé, the latter in a fashionable diving suit–try to smooth the waters over what seems to be a provincial dispute. This aquatic adventure was an echo of TPM. Season Four swims out of the gate with a three part arc that I watched all in a row the DVR recorded episodes finished just as “Prisoners” began.
