Star Wars, The Clone Wars: S1, E4: Destroy Malevolence

 This episode has a rather great gambit from the Sith Squad. Palpatine tells Padme to go meet with the banking clan of the Separatists (the Volus? :P) and Dooku tells Grevious to kidnap Padme. This goes pretty well, except for Padme having Big Time Balls and blowing up her own ship. 
 
(Don't get in the way of Padme's balls. They are gigantic.) 
 
"I will not be made a separatist bargaining chip!" Oh, Padme. 
 
Grievous is a rather interesting soul. He's consistently shown as being coldly logical, but rather than coming across as just merciless, he comes across at wrathful, angry. He is highly emotional. and in short, exactly the type of villain to cackle maniacally. 
 
Obi-Wan absolutely knows that Anakin loves Padme.  But his plans are much, much more complex than Anakin's, and he definitively doesn't appreciate Anakin's rather high-risk, high-reward tactics.
 
Anakin and Padme's relationship is sweet. She trusts him pretty implicitly and jumps when he asks. Adorable. Love the kiss, too. Also, this:
 
"Ever since I've known you, you've been playing with droids."
 
"I used to put them together. Now, I just take them apart."
 
A+ dialogue.
