Star Wars: The Clone Wars (R2-D2 Lost Arc) Recap

Welcome back for a new recap for The Clone Wars where we recap an arc that isn't the greatest, but we somehow talked for over an hour with R2 D2 lost arc with season 1 episode 6 'Downfall of a Droid' and episode 7 'Dual of the Droids". Is this arc wasted potential? Did we even like Goldie? Why is the episode so bright? Was R2-D2 actually himself? Did we like the AT-ETs on the asteroid? What is with the writing? Is Anakin stupid? Is the memory wipe necessary? And what would we find in a droid memory banks? Come along and struggle along with us while trying to get through this arc.
