Comparison between the TV Version and the Director's Cut (both released by Warner Home Video).
Runtime: Runtime TV = 21:43 Runtime DC = 23:20 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. In this episode, a few scenes were slightly altered and there's a short missing dialogue of Obi-Wan. Comparison of the Film Size:
TV: 00:51
DC: 00:51 Master Plo Koon is shown on the bridge a little longer. 0.52 sec
TV: 01:57 DC: 01:57 After Anakin's indoctrination only to talk to someone if he's spoken to Ahsoka responds that he always does that. Anaking sceptically looks at his Padawan. 2.28 sec
TV: 03:48 DC: 03:51 Subsequent to Count Dooku's order to destroy the escape capsules the droid and General Grievous villainously laug. While doing so the general turns his head to the Count. 1.8 sec
TV: 04:42 DC: 04:46 The spaceship is shown slightly longer. 0.4 sec
TV: 06:59 DC: 07:04 In between the scenes where Ahsoka and Anakin leave and the scene of the arrival at the Abregado-system they added a short sequence with Obi-Wan. In the control room of the spaceship he makes contact with Skywalker's flagship - the Resolute - and therefore now already gets wind of Anakin's trip. The Clone Commander says that the ships are in defense formation. Obi-Wan affirms it and wonders if Anakin is ready. He asks the admiral if the convoy is on the spot. Admiral Yularen responds that the convoy is already on its way and that there's no sign of enemy attacks. Then Obi-Wan asks where Anakin is. Admiral Yularen tells him that the general said that a re-formation of the fleet would expand the radius of their defense. Obi-Wan thanks him and says that this is all for now. The Clone Commander asks if there's any problem. Obi-Wan responds that Anakin just placed an order with himself again. The Twilight's arrival in the TV version (logically) happens without the little effect. TV: 0.4 sec DC: 37.64 sec
