Comparison between the TV Version and the Director's Cut (both released by Warner Home Video).

Runtime:
Runtime TV = 21:41
Runtime DC = 22:22

In the box-set for the first season of "The Clone Wars" the producers included special "Director's Cut" versions for 7 episodes. These versions are probably just the original unedited versions which had to be shortened in order to fit in the correct time limit for the TV channel.

Just as in the previous episode about the Malevolence the Director's Cut only includes a few minor alterations.
