Not featuring a single regular character of the series, and set on Coruscant rather than in deep space, “The Clone Conspiracy” is an anomaly for the series in more ways than one. It also seems to answer the longest running question of the series by reintroducing the character of Senator Riyo Chuchi (Jennifer Hale) who is far to similar to Omega to not make note of, although why someone may have wanted a more human clone of the Senator is still unclear. In a storyline that demands better treatment of veterans, Riyo fights for the rights of decommissioned Clones as the Empire attempts to push through legislation of a new conscripted military force.

The episode does allow Tech to get a little more time, becoming the hero of the episode by flying the winning speeder. The episode ends with a warning about Cid from a less-than-reliable source that doesn’t really tell the clones anything they didn’t already know about their partner of convince.
