And of those who remained, none of them seemed to be able to offer anything more substantial than Obi-Wan’s pale summary of their situation.
“Good morning, Senator Amidala,” he returned the greeting easily. “I hope it doesn’t come to that,” Padmé said. Palpatine had never before been familiar with the sensation of horror, and the unfamiliar emotion caused his already fraying self-control to flee entirely.
“Please, have a seat, Chancellor, so we can review the evidence with you.”, He sat, almost absent-mindedly, still trying to work out if that was what he thought it was. Oh the tactical perspective...that makes sense, The only thing I can think of is the Jedi replenishing/buffing Rey’s force power bar/focus strengthened her force shield (can’t be thrown as easily...which is quite contrived...). If you are experiencing any problems or have any issues please use the report function or do no hesitate to contact our moderators directly.
One day, she meets someone who can help her know more. Mace was still uncertain.
They just had no proof of his wrongdoing in that regard, and were resorting to exploiting frivolities to send him out of the way. Palpatine put on a slightly puzzled smile, just as pleasant and sincere as the Senator’s well-wishes. I don’t know what you believe you have won, here, Senator, but this little game will end in my favor.
Hell iirc the campaign mode for battlefront 2 had a contingency plan of his.
Rey did her part in defeating the Emperor, as did the Resistance and the galaxy fleet defeating the Sith fleet. “Do you deny it?” she asked, her gaze firm and uncompromising.
“We cannot allow him to continue his plans.”, “Hm,” Yoda said, finally speaking up. He couldn’t imagine how they could look at those holos and guess otherwise, but he couldn’t risk giving them confirmation of any possible suspicions if there was even the slightest amount of doubt in them right now. But even with his formidable powers, he wouldn’t be able to slaughter them all before Master Windu intervened. Déguisement spectaculaire très proche du costume original du film. Perhaps to buy time to find greater evidence, perhaps to trick him into giving himself away, perhaps any number of things. Obi-Wan closed his mouth, looking a bit put-out, but he and Master Gallia nodded their agreement as they followed Padmé into the room. Chief of Police Ben Kenobi and Deputy Luke Skywalker are going to put a stop to it, unless a certain redheaded gangster moll has something to say about it.
I must ask that you follow Master Windu to the escort ship now.”.
And how much did the Jedi have to do with this?
In the time of TROS, 30 years later, that is plenty of time to amass both a large fleet of ships and clones of Palpatine and Snoke. Even more of a Vader-meets-Robocop sort of clone rebirth as the clone struggled to accept Vader's "being" they just started adding mechanical pieces. He was always talking about cheating death...even in the prequels. Mace looked into Adi’s grim, tight-set face and forced himself to speak as he met her eyes. He considered simply attacking, cutting down all these fools – especially Senator Amidala – and burying the whole ridiculous thing. The Rebels may have destroyed the second Death Star at the Battle of Endor, but the Emperor's survival meant the war was far from over.
Leia Organa, however, has her doubts. And going to kick ass!) Senator, I must say that this whole affair is a rather trivial concern...”, She cut him off. (See the end of the work for more notes.). On the other hand, that made no sense at all. But he showed nothing of his snarling thoughts as she glanced across at her companions, including the droids that were recording the hearing. It's her job to train her abilities, rescue Luke and put an end to this war once and for all. I’m afraid our quaint and elaborate traditions must sometimes fall to the wayside in the face of such things.”. And when would they have arrived to Exegol? Also, Anakin was likely a large contributor toward Rey's strength in the final clash, along with the other Jedi. “Good morning, Chancellor,” Senator Amidala said as he entered the room, her tone pleasant enough but the sharpness in her presence indicating she wished him anything but.
Again, I do not think Palpatine’s return was explained well enough in the movie, but a significant amount of criticism was directed toward TROS because of this plot point. Please consider turning it on!
However, the real problems lie in Palpatine's supposed death on Exegol being essentially self-inflicted. Dangerous, it is.”, “There must be something,” Obi-Wan frowned as he echoed Mace’s earlier words, and stroked his chin.
Palpatine responded with a put-upon sigh.
This whole arrangement pointed to Senator Amidala as the mastermind; after all, the Jedi made their distrust of politicians no secret, and their trappings of compassion meant that they’d never risk harm coming to bystanders, given the choice.
While I think the movie should’ve done a better job of being upfront on how Palpatine returned, I think the evidence sprinkled throughout is good enough while not referencing any outside source material. 10 years after the rise of the EMPIRE, Jedi Master OBI WAN(now called Ben) KENOBI is still haunted by his losses after the commencement of ORDER 66. This is the main reason why people think Palpatine was a resurrected corpse, not a clone. “Look what you have made.” This line is spoken by Palpatine just after he absorbs Rey and Ben’s life energy.
“Even the worst nest of loopholes must have snags. She glanced back down at the evidence, her mind whirling with the potential in the word “drastic”. “I’m not sure that involving someone outside the Order would be wise.
But he was referring to the death of his physical body, not his spirit. “We apologize for troubling you so late, but I’m afraid we may need your help on a matter of great importance.”. “I must admit, I was surprised to receive this summons.
While this is the explanation given in the novelization, the film supports with the information is shows the audience. The Jedi must have sensed her change in mood, as they all leaned forward, looking intently at her.
This explanation also enhances the sacrifice Vader made in Episode VI, as it's like a major blow dealt to Palpatine, he is clinging to life just barely.
That was how he’d gotten into office, after all.
The transfer essence ritual at the end of the film confirms Palpatine is able to do this, likely having done it just after he fell down the Death Star shaft. Good post.
“What is it?”. “Why would the Chancellor...why would he betray the Republic? Water? No, he had to hold himself in check, no matter how much it burned in him to render them all crushed and broken under his hands, or else he’d lose everything he and a millennium of Sith plans had worked for.
Star Wars Speculation is a community dedicated to speculative discussion of the Star Wars franchise. “There’s too much distortion around whatever communication device he’s using, and the probe was unable to locate it after he left. As he ruminated quietly on how he would accomplish his revenge, Representative Binks shuffled over. First, they have cloning technology advanced enough to make several replicas of the same individual.
Please be reasonable and open-minded. And who knew if the recordings were live…. Narratively, why would he do anything different? Welcome to r/StarWarsSpeculation! She returned her gaze to him. Only Master Yoda,” Master Gallia said. My opinion was that the novelization’s explanation was unneeded, as it detracts from what the story is trying to narratively accomplish. THAT was hastily done, totally unexplained, and fleshed out later in comics and stuff.
Yes, technically he’d violated that law, but that was hardly what the Senator – and she must have realized, or been told, what the holos indicated – or the Jedi were concerned with. Preposterous.
In TROS he had just used lightning to take all of the resistance ships out of the sky, all his plans are coming together, being arrogant enough to believe his lightning will be stronger than weakened Rey as she tries to keep hold of the lightsaber she's using to block it, and killing himself with it, seems pretty Palpatine. Politicians are just as keen on ensnaring their enemies as they are avoiding their own consequences.”. Jedi, he knew – had thought – would make sure to confront him alone out of some misplaced ideal of protecting the innocent. tip: katekyou "alternate universe" sort:>words. “Given what happened on Naboo all those years ago.”. Anything...less than legal on his hands was more than untraceable behind layers of middlemen and misdirection. Find a way where we cannot, she may.”. And yes, even as he looked, he could see and sense confusion from many of the attendees. “I must admit, I was surprised to receive this summons. Pursued by a force that will stop at nothing to bring her down, Mara Jade must deal with her history as an assassin and the broken relationships left in her wake long before she becomes the newest member of the New Jedi Order. “Good morning, Senator Amidala,” he returned the greeting easily.
Beyond that, if we're all to assume Palpatine "thrusts his consciousness" into a clone at the end of ROTJ, what ignoramus at Disney came up with the idea that he can't repeat the same feat ad infinitum? tip: buffy gen teen AND "no archive warnings apply". He had no intention of leaving, and surely no one without suspicions of his true purposes would accept the idea of the Chancellor being forced to leave in the middle of the war simply because of his clothing choices!
Difficult to see, our path is. Show her what you have shown us. To think that this whole senseless war lay at his hands, that he could’ve stopped it on a mere whim, but instead let the violence grow and fester…. How had she gotten those holos?
Yoda even acknowledged the prophecy could have been misread, so I just discard it entirely. So just what what could the Senator have to have brought about a hearing so unexpectedly? “Outside of this room? Et si Mara Jade avait une vision des évènements d'Endor et partait au secours de l'Empereur ? He would have to talk his way out of this. Vats of previous Snoke clones, rotten decaying flesh combined with milky soulless eyes is enough to imply a spirit trapped in an unsustainable body, apparatus, a few throwaway lines, and the fact that Palpatine always has backup plans. Kylo shows up on the desert planet after finding out where they are an hour later in movie time. “Then let the record state that under Section 431, you, Chancellor Palpatine, are found in violation of Naboo’s Arts and Culture Presentation Act, and as such are required to perform service at one of the accredited Recycling Looms for the minimum duration outlined by Clause E. I have already spoken with the Queen; this sentence is to be served immediately.”.
