Anakin Skywalker:
Me? A Master? I’m overwhelmed, sir. But the Council elects its own members. They will never accept this.
Supreme Chancellor:
I think they will. They need you, more than you know.
Supreme Chancellor:
They don’t trust you Anakin.
Supreme Chancellor:
Are you going to kill me?
Anakin Skywalker:
I would really like to!
Supreme Chancellor:
I know you would. I can feel your anger. It give you focus… makes you stronger.
Supreme Chancellor:
Be careful of the Jedi, Anakin. Only through me can you achieve a power greater than any Jedi. Learn to know the Dark Side of the Force and you will be able to save your wife from certain death.
Anakin Skywalker:
He won’t give up his power. I just learned the terrible truth. I think Chancellor Palpatine is a Sith Lord.
Mace Windu: A Sith Lord?
Anakin Skywalker: Yes, the one we’ve been looking for.
Mace Windu:
How do you know this?
Anakin Skywalker:
He knows the ways of the Force. He’s been trained to use the Dark Side.
Mace Windu:
Are you sure?
Anakin Skywalker:
Absolutely.
Mace Windu:
Then our worst fears have been realized. We must move quickly if the Jedi Order is to survive.
Mace Windu:
The oppression of the Sith will never return! You, my lord, have lost!
Mace Windu:
I sense a plot to destroy the Jedi. The Dark Side of the Force surrounds the Chancellor.
Ki-Adi-Mundi:
If he does not give up his emergency powers after the destruction of Grievous, then he must be forcibly removed from office.
Mace Windu: It will be tricky. The Jedi Council will have to take control of the Senate to ensure a peaceful transition to a new goverment and a new leadership for the Republic.
Yoda:
Hmm. To a dark place this line of thought will carry us. Great care we must take.
Padmé: They trust you with their lives.
Anakin Skywalker:
Something’s happening. I’m not the Jedi I should be. I want more. And I know I shouldn’t.
Darth Sidious:
The end of the war is near.
General Grievous:
But the loss of Count Dooku?
Darth Sidious:
His death was a necessary loss. Soon I will have a new apprentice, one far younger and more powerful.
Anakin Skywalker:
We lost something.
Obi-Wan:
Not to worry. We’re still flying half a ship.
Darth Sidious: I have waited a long time for this moment, my little green friend. At last, the Jedi are no more.
Yoda: Not if anything to say about it I have!
[Yoda force flings Darth Sidious across the room and across his desk]
Yoda: At an end your rule is, and not short enough was it.
[in a panic, Darth Sidious leaps towards the door. But Yoda leaps up and blocks his way]
Yoda: [ignites his lightsaber] If so powerful you are… why leave?
Darth Sidious: [ignites his lightsaber] You will not stop me! Darth Vader will become more powerful than either of us!
Yoda: Faith in your new apprentice, misplaced may be. As is your faith in the dark side of the Force.
Count Dooku:
I sense great fear in you, Skywalker. You have hate. You have anger. But you don’t use them.
Anakin Skywalker:
The Separatists have been taken care of, my master.
The Emperor:
It is finished then. You have restored peace and justice to the galaxy.
Obi-Wan Kenobi:
The Chancellor is behind everything, including the war. Palpatine is the Sith Lord we’ve been searching for.
Anakin Skywalker:
Is it possible to learn this power?
Supreme Chancellor:
Not from a Jedi.
Darth Sidious:
I am sending you my new apprentice, Darth Vader. He will… take care of you.
The Emperor:
In order to ensure our security and continuing stability, the Republic will be reorganized into the first Galactic Empire, for a safe and secure society which I assure you will last for ten thousand years.
Padmé:
So this is how liberty dies… with thunderous applause.
Obi-Wan Kenobi:
The Council wants you to report on all the Chancellor’s dealings.
Anakin Skywalker:
They want me to spy on the Chancellor? But that is treason!
Yoda:
Destroy the Sith, we must.
Darth Sidious:
Once more, the Sith will rule the galaxy! And… we shall have peace.
Darth Sidious:
To cheat death is a power only one has achieved through centuries of the study of the Force. But if we work together, I know we can discover the secret to eternal life
Anakin Skywalker:
I pledge myself to your teachings. To the ways of the Sith.
Darth Sidious:
Good. Good! The Force is strong with you, Anakin Skywalker. A powerful Sith you will become. Henceforth, you shall be known as Darth… Vader.
Anakin Skywalker:
Thank you… my Master.
Darth Sidious:
Lord Vader… rise.
General Grievous:
Anakin Skywalker. I expected someone with your reputation to be a little… older.
Anakin Skywalker:
General Grievous… you’re shorter than I expected.
Yoda:
Use your feelings, Obi-Wan, and find him, you will.
Obi-Wan:
You were the chosen one! It was said that you would destroy the Sith, not join them. You were to bring balance to the force, not leave it in darkness.
Anakin Skywalker:
I hate you.
Obi-Wan:
You were my brother, Anakin. I loved you.
Yoda:
Twisted by the Dark Side, young Skywalker has become. The boy you trained, gone he is… Consumed by Darth Vader.
Obi-Wan Kenobi:
Anakin did not take to his new assignment with much enthusiasm.
Mace Windu: It’s very dangerous, putting them together. I don’t think the boy can handle it. I don’t trust him.
Obi-Wan Kenobi:
With all due respect, Master, is he not the Chosen One? Is he not to destroy the Sith and bring balance to the Force?
Mace Windu:
So the prophecy says.
Yoda:
A prophecy that misread could have been.
Darth Vader:
Where is Padme? Is she safe? Is she all right?
Darth Sidious:
It seems in your anger, you killed her.
Darth Vader:
I…? I couldn’t have! She was alive… I felt it!
Darth Vader:
Nooooooooooooooooooo!
General Grievous:
General Kenobi, you are a bold one!
