We open on a menacing RED title card and the Radio Announcer reminds us of Savage Opress' creation, rise, and betrayal of Dooku and Asajj Ventress, plus his new mission: to find his brother, Darth Maul.
Dooku and Grievous discuss the rise of something sinister and we cut to Savage terrorizing a Waffle House at a spaceport, where some special dust-laden cargo leads him to a spaceship he commandeers to take him to a planet he believes his brother is on.
Anakin and Ahsoka show up at the diner, just to eat, but a lingering darkness like a distant fart tells Anakin something foul is nearby.
Sir Hiss shows up to guide Savage through his destination planet, but leads him to a trap as an offering to an old legend "BELOW”... Who turns out to be Darth Maul, now with his bottom half resembling a robotic Shelob from LOTR, his horns grown out, and his mind driven crazy by the isolation; but all the while holding one thought: REVENGE.
Yoda and Obi-Wan sense this awakening... as we come to The End.
Another red title card before our Jedi Fortune Cookie "The enemy of my enemy is my friend". The Radio Announcer tells us Maul has been taken back to Mother Talzin. Still messed up in the head, Savage leaves Maul on the ship to find Talzin, and discovers the slaughter of the Nightsisters. Talzin reaches into Maul's mind to pull out his proverbial demons while also giving him new legs to replace the cobbled-together spider legs he had made himself.
Maul slaughters innocents and broadcasts it to the Jedi and tells them that Obi-Wan must come alone. Yoda lets him go alone, but senses an unlikely ally will aid him... Asajj Ventress (who just learned of the bounty on Savage's head).
Obi-Wan, getting his butt kicked by the horned brothers, is saved when Savage shows up. The four duel it out, but Asajj and Obi-Wan are outmatched and escape. Maul decides that patience is a virtue, and he will be counting on the jedi to try to track him down.
