Captain Rex and Commander

Captain Rex and Commander Cody must find
the traitor in their ranks in “Hidden
Enemy,” an all-new episode of the hit animated series STAR WARS: THE CLONE
WARS, premiering at 9 p.m. ET/PT Friday, Feb. 6, on Cartoon Network.
In the episode, the clones discover evidence
that one of their brothers is leaking information to the enemy. Faced with the betrayal,
Cody and Rex must uncover the spy before he is able to thwart the Republic’s
efforts to liberate Christophsis from a Separatist siege.
Director Steward Lee and writer Drew Greenberg
were both drawn to the chance to look at the first break in the ranks of the clones – an
ominous sign of things to come.
“I thought it was interesting because the clone’s logic is understandable,” Lee
says. “He no longer wants to be just a slave to the Jedi, and wants to try
and break that infrastructure. He thinks he’s doing the right thing for all
the clones and that the sacrifice is worth it.”
“It’s all about the brotherhood, and how far those boundaries stretch,” Greenberg
adds. “Even the guy who turns out to be the bad guy makes the case that he
was doing it for his brothers. This is about what it means to be a clone and what
it means to be part of that brotherhood.”
“If one Clone can break from his brothers, and what he is bred for as a
soldier of the Republic, and act on his own," Lee says, " how many more
would do the same? This creates an interesting beginning of something to come.”
Commander Cody and Captain Rex consider their clone
