Continuity
Following the original airing order from Star Wars Insider 134, "The Rise of Clovis" was to be the seventh episode of Season Five, but this was later revised to "A Test of Strength." Along with the episodes "An Old Friend" and "Crisis at the Heart," "The Rise of Clovis" was pushed back later in the series' broadcast order. It did not air in Season Five as originally scheduled.

According to Series Writer Brent Friedman, the story arc that "The Rise of Clovis" is a part of initially included the episode "A Friend in Need," but the arc was later split between seasons, with "A Friend in Need" being released with the series' fourth season.
