Captain. Yes, sir?
Tell them we wish to board at once.

With all due respect,

the ambassadors for the supreme chancellor
wish to board immediately. Yes, of course.

As you know, our blockade is perfectly legal,
and we'd be happy to receive the ambassadors.

I am TC-14 at your service.
This way, please.

We are greatly honored
by your visit, Ambassadors.

Make yourselves comfortable.
My master will be with you shortly.

I have a bad feeling about this.

I don't sense anything.
It's not about the mission, Master.

It's something... elsewhere, elusive.
Don't center on your anxieties, Obi-Wan.

Keep your concentration here and now,
where it belongs.

But Master Yoda said
I should be mindful of the future.

But not at the expense of the moment.

Be mindful of the living Force, young Padawan.
Yes, Master.

How do you think this trade viceroy
will deal with the chancellor's demands?

These Federation types are cowards.
The negotiations will be short.

What? What did you say?

The ambassadors are Jedi knights, I believe.
I knew it. They're here to force a settlement.

Distract them.
I will contact Lord Sidious.

Are you brain-dead?
I am not going in there with two Jedi.

Send a droid.

Is it in their nature to make us wait this long?
No.

I sense an unusual amount of fear for
something as trivial as this trade dispute.

What is it?
This scheme of yours has failed, Lord Sidious.

The blockade is finished.
We dare not go against these Jedi.

Viceroy, I don't want this stunted slime
in my sight again.

This turn of events is unfortunate.

We must accelerate our plans.
Begin landing your troops.

My lord, is that legal?
I will make it legal. And the Jedi?

The chancellor should never have brought
them into this. Kill them immediately.

Yes. Yes, my lord. Uh, as you wish.

- Captain, look!
- Shields up!

Sorry....

Dioxis.

They must be dead by now.
Destroy what's left of them.

Oh! Excuse me. Check it out, Corporal.
We will cover you. Roger, roger.

- Uh-oh.
- Blast them.

What is going on down there?
We lost the transmission, sir.

Have you ever encountered a Jedi knight before?
Sir. Well, no, but I don't-Seal off the bridge.

Yes, sir. That won't be enough, sir.
I want droidekas up here at once!

We will not survive this.

Close the blast doors!

That will hold them.

They are still coming through.
This is impossible!

Where are those droidekas?

- Master!
- Destroyers!

They have shield generators!

It's a standoff. Let's go.

They're no match for droidekas.
Sir! They have gone up the ventilation shaft.

Battle droids.
It's an invasion army.

This is an odd play for the Trade Federation.

We have got to warn the Naboo
and contact Chancellor Valorum.

Let's split up. Stow aboard separate ships
and meet down on the planet.

You were right about one thing, Master.

The negotiations were short.

Sir, a transmission from the planet.

It's Queen Amidala herself.
At last we are getting results.

Again you come before us, Your Highness.

You will not be so pleased
when you hear what I have to say, Viceroy.

Your trade boycott of our planet has ended.

I was not aware of such failure.

I have word that the chancellor's
ambassadors are with you now...

and that you have been commanded
to reach settlement.

I know nothing of any ambassadors.
You must be mistaken.

Beware, Viceroy.

The Federation has gone too far this time.

We would never do anything
without the approval of the senate.

You assume too much.
We will see.

She's right. The senate will never...
It's too late now.

Do you think she suspects an attack?
I don't know.

But we must move quickly
to disrupt all communications down there.

Negotiations haven't started
because the ambassadors aren't there?

How could that be true?

I have assurances from the chancellor
his ambassadors did arrive.

It must-handiwork-negotiate-ambassadors,
nobody would... Senator Palpatine.

What's happening?

Check the transmission generator.

A communications disruption
can mean only one thing: invasion.

The Federation would not dare go that far.

The senate would revoke their trade franchise,
and they'd be finished.

We must continue to rely on negotiation.
Negotiation? We have lost all communications.

And where are the chancellor's ambassadors?

This is a dangerous situation, Your Highness.

Our security volunteers will be no match
against a battle-hardened Federation army.

I will not condone a course of action
that will lead us to war.

Yes, Viceroy? Captain, we have searched
the ship, and there is no trace of the Jedi.

They may have gotten on one of your landing craft.
If they're down here, sir, we will find them.

Use caution.
These Jedi are not to be underestimated.

- Oh, no!
- Get away! Get out of here! Get down!

Ay-yee-yee.....
Wha......

Was'n dat? Hey, wait!

Oh, mooie-mooie! I love you!
You almost got us killed. Are you brainless?

I spake. The ability to speak
does not make you intelligent.

Now, get out of here.
No, no, mesa stay.

Mesa culled JarJar Binks. Mesa your humble servant.
That won't be necessary. Oh, but it is.

It is demanded by the gods, it is.
Oh, no! Whoo! Stay down!

You saved my again.

What's this?
A local.

Let's get out of here before
more droids show up. More?

"More" did you spake?

Ex-squeeze-me, but de mostest
safest place would be Gunga City.

Is where I grew up. It is a hidden city.

A city?
Uh-huh.

Can you take us there?
Uh, on second thought, no. Not really, no. No?

It is embarrassing,

but, uh, my afraid my have been banished.

My forgotten.
Da bosses would do terrible things to me.

Terrible things to me if me going back dare.

You hear that?
Yah.

That is the sound of a thousand
terrible things heading this way.

If they find us, they will crush us,

grind us into tiny pieces
and blast us into oblivion.

Oh. Yousa point is well seen.
This way. Hurry!

How much further? Wesa going underwater.
Okeyday? Ah, my warning you.

Gungans no liken outsiders,
so don't spect a warm welcome.

Oh, don't worry.
This hasn't been our day for warm welcomes.

Ar, ar, ar! Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh!

Yousa follow me now, okeyday?

So good bein home!

Oh, me gusa.
Hata-hata.

- Hey, yousa. Stopa dare!
- Heyo-dales, Cap'n Tarpals. Mesa back!

Noah gain, JarJar. Yousa goen tada bosses.
Yousa in big dudu dis time.

Ohh....

Ay, ay.....

How wude.

Tkk-tkk-tkk-tkk-tkk-tkk-tkk!
Yousa cannot bees hair.

Dis army of Mackineeks
up dare is new weesong.

A droid army is about to attack the Naboo.
We must warn them.

Wesa no like da Naboo. Tkk-tkk-tkk-tkk-tkk.
Da Naboo tink day so smarty.

Day tink day brains so big.

Once those droids take control of the
surface, they will take control of you.

Mesa no tink so.

Day not know of uss-en.

You and the Naboo form a symbiont circle.

What happens to one of you will affect the other.
You must understand this.

Wesa no carrrre-nn about da Naboo.

Then speed us on our way.

Wesa ganna speed yous away.

We could use a transport.

Wesa give yousa una bongo.

Hmm?
Da speediest way too da Naboo...

it is goen through the planet core.

Now..........
Go.......

Thank you for your help. We leave in peace.

Master, what's a bongo?

A transport, I hope.

Deysa setten yousa up.

Goen through da planet core? Bad bombing.
Mmm... any help here would be hot.

Master, we're short on time.

We will need a navigator
to get us through the planet's core.

This Gungan may be of help.

What is to become of JarJar Binks here?

Hisen to be pune-ished.
Ohh.... I saved his life.

He owes me what you call a "life-debt."

Your gods demand
that his life belongs to me now. Binkssssss,

yousa havena liveplay with thisen hisen?
Mm, uh-huh.

Begone wit him!

Count me out of dis one.
Better dead here than dead in da core.

Yee gods! What mesa saying?

Dis is nutsen. Oh, gooberfish!

Why were you banished, JarJar? It's a longo tale-o,
but a small part of it would be mesa... clumsy.

- You were banished because you were clumsy?
- Ah, yousa might'n be saying dat.

Mesa caused mabbe
one, two-y lettle bitty axadentes, huh?

Yud-say boom da gassar,

den crashin der boss's heyblibber,
den banished.

Wuh-oh.....

Big gooberfish! Huge-o teeth!

- There's always a bigger fish.
- Mesa tink we goen back now.

The invasion is on schedule, my lord.
I have the senate bogged down in procedures.

They will have no choice
but to accept your control of the system.

The queen has great faith
that the senate will side with her.

Queen Amidala is young and naive.

You will find controlling
her will not be difficult. Yes, my lord.

You didn't tell him about the missing Jedi.

No need to report that to him
until we have something to report.

Where wesa going?
Don't worry. The Force will guide us.

Ohh, maxi big, da Force.

Well, dat smells stinkowiff.

We're losing power.
Ohhh, no....

Wesa dying here. Just relax.
We're not in trouble yet. What "yet"?

Monsters out dare. Leak'n in here.

All sink'n and no power?
When a yousa tinkin wesa in trouble?

Power's back.
Huh? Aah, monster's back!

- Relax. Ohh....
- You overdid it.

Horrible.
Head for that outcropping.

Oh, boy.

Viceroy, we have captured the queen.
Ah, victory.

Mmm, dis'n loverly.

How will you explain this invasion
to the senate?

The queen and I will sign a treaty
that will legitimize our occupation here.

I have assurances it will be ratified by the senate.
I will not cooperate. Now, now, Your Highness.

In time, the suffering of your people
will persuade you to see our point of view.

Commander.
Yes, sir.

Process them.
Captain, take them to Camp 4. Roger, roger.

Whoops....

Whoo-hoo-hoo!

- We should leave the street, Your Highness.
- Get their weapons.

Whoa! Yousa guys bombad!

We're ambassadors for
the supreme chancellor.

Your negotiations seemed to have failed,
Ambassador. The negotiations never took place.

It's urgent that we make contact
with the Republic.

- They have knocked out all our communications.
- Do you have transports?

In the main hangar. This way.

- There are too many of them.
- That won't be a problem.

Your Highness, under the circumstances,
I suggest you come to Coruscant with us.

Thank you, Ambassador,
but my place is with my people.

- They will kill you if you stay.
- They wouldn't dare.

They need her to sign a treaty to make this
invasion legal. They can't afford to kill her.

There is something else behind all this,
Your Highness.

There's no logic in the
Federation's move here.

My feelings tell me they will destroy you.

Our only hope is for the senate to side with us.
Senator Palpatine will need your help.

Either choice presents great danger to us all.
We are brave, Your Highness.

If you are to leave,
Your Highness, it must be now.

Then I will plead our case to the senate.
Be careful, Governor.

We will need to free those pilots.

I will deal with that.

Halt! I am ambassador to the supreme chancellor.
I am taking these people to Coruscant.

- Where are you taking them?
- To Coruscant.

Coruscant? Uh, that doesn't compute.
Uh, wait. You're under arrest.

Come on. Move!

Go....

Now, stay here and keep out of trouble.

Hello, boyos.

There's the blockade.

The shield generator's been hit!

How wude!

We're losing droids fast.

If we can't get the shield generator fixed,
we will be sitting ducks.

The shields are gone.

The power's back!

That little droid did it.
He bypassed the main power drive.

Deflector shields up at maximum.

There's not enough power to get us to Coruscant.
The hyper-drive is leaking.

We will have to land somewhere to refuel and
repair the ship. Here, Master. Tatooine.

It's small, out of the way, poor.
The Trade Federation have no presence there.

How can you be sure?

It's controlled by the Hutts.

You can't take Her Royal Highness there.
The Hutts are gangsters.

- If they discovered her....
- It'd be no different than if we landed...

...on a system controlled by the Federation,

except that the Hutts aren't looking
for her, which gives us the advantage.

And Queen Amidala, has she signed the treaty?
She has disappeared, my lord.

One Naboo cruiser got past the blockade.
I want that treaty signed.

My lord,

it's impossible to locate the ship.
It's out of our range.

Not for a Sith.

This is my apprentice,
"Darth Maul".

He will find your lost ship.

This is getting out of hand.
Now there are two of them.

We should not have made this bargain.

An extremely well-put-together
little droid, Your Highness.

Without a doubt,
it saved the ship, as well as our lives.

It is to be commended.
What is its number?

R2-D2, Your Highness.
Thank you, R2-D2.

Padm�.....

Clean this droid up as best you can.
It deserves our gratitude.

Continue, Captain.

Your Highness, with your permission,
we're heading for a remote planet called Tatooine.

It's in a system far beyond the reach
of the Trade Federation.

I do not agree with the Jedi on this.

You must trust my judgment, Your Highness.

Hello.

Sorry. Husa are yousa?
I am Padm�.

Mesa JarJar Binks.

You're a Gungan, aren't you?
Uh-huh.

How'd you end up here with us?
My no know.

Mesa day starten pitty okeyday
witd a brisky morning munchen.

Den boom! Getten berry scared and
grabben dat Jedi, and pow-mesa here.

Huh. Mesa getten berry, berry scared.

That's it. Tatooine.
There's a settlement.

Land near the outskirts.
We don't want to attract attention.

The hyper-drive generator's gone, Master.
We will need a new one.

That will complicate things. Be wary.

I sense a disturbance in the Force. I feel it also,
Master. Don't let them send any transmissions.

This sun doen murder to mesa skin.
Wait!

Wait.

Her Highness commands you
to take her handmaiden with you.

No more commands
from Her Highness today, Captain.

The spaceport is not going to be pleasant.
The queen wishes it.

She's curious about the planet.

This is not a good idea.
Stay close to me.

Moisture farms, for the most part.

Some indigenous tribes and scavengers.

The few spaceports like this one are havens
for those that don't wish to be found. Like us.

Dissen berry berry bad.
Oh! Icky icky goo!

We will try one of the smaller dealers.

Good day to you.

What do you want?
I need parts for a J-type 327 Nubian.

Ah, yes! Nubian. We have lots of that.

Boy, get in here now!
My droid has a readout of what I need.

What took you so long?

I was cleaning the fan switches. Watch the store.
I have got some selling to do.

So... let me take thee out back, huh?
Ni you will find what you need.

Hmm?
Don't touch anything. Hmph!

Hmm.

Are you an angel?
What?

An angel.
I heard the deep space pilots talk about them.

They're the most beautiful creatures in the universe.
They live on the moons of lego, I think.

You're a funny little boy.

How do you know so much?

I listen to all the traders and star pilots
who come through here.

I am a pilot, you know, and someday
I am going to fly away from this place.

You're a pilot? Mm-hmm. All my life.
How long have you been here?

Since I was very little. Three, I think.

My mom and I were sold to Gardulla the Hutt,

but she lost us betting on the Podraces.
You're a slave?

I am a person, and my name is Anakin.
I am sorry.

I don't fully understand.
This is a strange place to me. Hmm. Hmm.

Where-Wheres yousa going?
Ugh!

I got you. Hey!
What? Hit the nose.

- Oh......
- Uh.......

A T-14 hyper-drive generator. Thee in luck.
I am the only one hereabouts who has one.

But thee might as well buy a new ship.
It would be cheaper, I think, huh?

Saying of which,

how's thee going to pay for all this, huh?
I have 20,000 Republic dataries. Republic credits?

Republic credits are no good out here.
I need something more real.

I don't have anything else,
but credits will do fine.

No, they won't. Credits will do fine.
No, they won't!

What, you think you're some kind of Jedi,
waving your hand around like that?

I am a Toydarian.
Mind tricks don't work on me. Only money.

No money, no parts, no deal.

And no one else has a T-14 hyper-drive,
I promise you that.

Wouldn't have lasted long anyways if I wasn't
so good at building things. Oh! Aw! Ooh! Uh!

Ai, ai! Whoa, ai!
We're leaving. JarJar. Whaaa.....

I am glad to have met you, Anakin.
I was glad to meet you too.

What?
Wha-Oh.

Outlanders. They think we know nothing.

They seemed nice to me.

Clean the racks then you can go home.
Yippee!

And you're sure there's nothing left on board?
A few containers of supplies.

The queen's wardrobe, maybe,
but not enough for you to barter with,

not in the amount you're talking about.

All right.
I am sure another solution will present itself.

I will check back later.

Noah gain! Noah gain.
Da beings hereabouts, cawazy!

Wesa be wobbed un crunched!

Not likely. We have nothing of value.
That's our problem.

- Hmm?
- Ah, mooie-mooie.

Hey, hey!
Are you going to pay for that?

Huh? Wanga?
It costs seven wupiupi.

Ah! Chubaa.....
Oops.

Is this yours?
Who, mesa?

Ouch! Ouch!
Careful, Sebulba.

He's a big-time outlander.

I'd hate to see you diced
before we race again.

Next time we race, boy, it will be the end of you.
If you weren't a slave, I'd squash you now.

Yeah, it'd be a pity
if you had to pay for me.

- Hi.
- Hi, there.

Your buddy here was about to be
turned into orange goo.

He picked a fight with a Dug,
an especially dangerous Dug called Sebulba.

Mesa haten crunchen.
Das da las ting mesa want.

Nevertheless, the boy is right.
You were heading into trouble.

Thanks, my young friend.

But.... But....
But mesa doen nutten!

This storm will slow them down.

Looks pretty bad.

Panaka. Receiving a message from home.
We will be right there.

Here, you will like these pallies.

Here.
Thank you.

Oh, my bones are aching.

Storm's coming up, Ani.
You better get home quick.

Do you have shelter?
We will head back to our ship.

Is it far?
It's on the outskirts.

You will never reach the outskirts in time.
Sandstorms are very, very dangerous.

Come on. I will take you to my place.

Mom! Mom, I am home!
Ahh, dissen cozy.

- These are my friends, Mom.
- Hello.

I am Qui-Gon Jinn.
I am building a droid. You want to see?

Your son was kind enough to offer us shelter.

Come on. I will show you 3PO.
Oh, mooie-mooie.

Isn't he great? He's not finished yet.
He's wonderful.

You really like him?

He's a protocol droid to help Mom.
Watch.

Oh. Oh. Uh-Where is everybody?
Whoops.

Yeah.
Oh, hello.

I am C-3PO, human-cyborg relations.
How might I serve you?

He's perfect. Oh. Perfect.
When the storm is over.

I will show you my racer.
I am building a Podracer.

I am not sure this floor is entirely stable.
Oh, hello. I don't believe we have been introduced.

R2-D2. A pleasure to meet you.
I am C-3PO, human-cyborg relations.

I beg your pardon,
but what do you mean, "naked"?

My parts are showing?
My goodness! Oh!

The death toll is catastrophic.

We must bow to their wishes.
You must contact me.

It's a trick. Send no reply.

Send no transmissions of any kind.

It sounds like bait to
establish a connection trace.

What if it is true, and the people are dying?

Either way, we're running out of time.

Tatooine is sparsely populated.

If the trace was correct, I will find them
quickly, Master. Move against the Jedi first.

You will then have no difficulty in taking
the queen to Naboo to sign the treaty.

At last we will reveal ourselves to the Jedi.
At last we will have revenge.

You have been well-trained, my young apprentice.
They will be no match for you.

All slaves have a transmitter
placed inside their bodies somewhere.

I have been working on a scanner
to try and locate mine.

Any attempt to escape.
And they blow you up! Boom! How wude!

I can't believe
there's still slavery in the galaxy.

The Republic's antislavery laws....
The Republic doesn't exist out here.

We must survive on our own.
Xcuse me.

Has anybody ever seen a Podrace?

They have Podracing on Malastare.
Very fast, very dangerous.

I am the only human who can do it.

You must have Jedi reflexes
if you race pods. Don't do that again.

You're a Jedi knight, aren't you?

What makes you think that?

I saw your laser sword.
Only Jedis carry that kind of weapon.

Perhaps I killed a Jedi and took it from him.

I don't think so.
No one can kill a Jedi.

I wish that were so.

I had a dream I was a Jedi.
I came back here and freed all the slaves.

Have you come to free us?
No, I am afraid not.

I think you have.
Why else would you be here?

I can see there's no fooling you, Anakin.

We're on our way to Coruscant, the central system
in the Republic, on a very important mission.

How did you end up out here in the outer rim?

Our ship was damaged, and we're stranded here
until we can repair it. I can help.

I can fix anything. I believe you can.
But first we must acquire the parts we need.

Wit no-nutten mula to trade.

These junk dealers must have
a weakness of some kind.

Gambling. Everything here revolves around
betting on those awful races.

Podracing. Greed can be a powerful ally.

I built a racer. It's the fastest ever.
There's a big race tomorrow on Boonta Eve.

- You could enter my pod.
- Anakin!

- Watto won't let you.
- Watto doesn't know I have built it.

You could make him think it was yours
and get him to let me pilot it for you.

I don't want you to race. It's awful.
I die every time Watto makes you do it.

But, Mom, I love it.

The prize money would more than pay
for the parts they need.

Anakin.

Your mother's right.

Is there anyone friendly to the Republic
who can help us?

No....

Mom, you say the biggest problem in this
universe is nobody helps each other.

I am sure Qui-Gon doesn't want
to put your son in danger.

We will find some other way.

No.
There is no other way.

I may not like it, but he can help you.
He was meant to help you.

Are you sure about this?

Trusting our fate to a boy we hardly know?

The queen will not approve.
The queen doesn't need to know.

Well, I don't approve.
The boy tells me you want to sponsor him in the race.

How can you do this? Not on the Republic credits,
I think, huh? My ship will be the entry fee.

Oh, not bad!
Not bad, huh? A Nubian, huh?

It's in good order, except for the parts I need.

What would the boy ride?

He smashed up my pod in the last race.
It will take some long time to fix it.

It wasn't my fault, really.
Sebulba flashed me with his vents.

I actually saved the pod, mostly.
Mmm. That you did, huh.

The boy's good. No doubts there, huh?

I have acquired a pod in a game of chance,
the fastest ever built.

I hope you didn't kill
anyone I know for it, huh?

So, you supply the pod and the entry fee,
and I supply the boy.

We split the winnings,
um, 50-50, I think, huh?

If it's going to be 50-50,
I suggest you front the cash for the entry.

If we win,

you keep all the winnings,
minus the cost of the parts I need.

And if we lose, you keep my ship.

Either way, you win.

Deal!

Your friend is a foolish one, me thinks.

What if this plan fails, Master?
We could be stuck here a very long time.

Well, it's too dangerous to call for help, and a ship
without a power supply isn't gonna get us anywhere.

And... there's something about this boy.

You should be very proud of your son.

He gives without any thought of reward.
Well, he knows nothing of greed.

He has a...
He has special powers.

Yes.

He can see things before they happen.

That's why he appears to have such quick reflexes.
It's a Jedi trait.

He deserves better than a slave's life.
Why, certainly.

Had he been born in the Republic,
we would have identified him early.

The Force is unusually strong with him.
That much is clear.

Who was his father?

There was no father.

I carried him, I gave birth, I raised him.
I can't explain what happened.

- Can you help him?
- I don't know.

I didn't actually come here to free slaves.

Hey, hi, Ani.
Hi.

Wow, a real astro droid.

How did you get so lucky? That isn't the half of it.
I am in the Boonta race tomorrow. What?

With this?
You're such a joker, Ani.

You have been working on that thing for years.
It's never going to run.

Come on. Let's go and play ball.
Keep racing, Ani. You're going to be bug squash.

Hey, JarJar.
Keep away from those energy binders.

If your hand gets caught in the beam,
it's going to go numb for hours. Sorry. Okay.

My tongue is fat.
My tongue-Wrench.

Where is da wrench? Oh, dare it is.
Hey. Uh-oh. Uh, Ani, I am stuck. Ani.....

You know, I find that JarJar creature
to be a little odd.

You don't even know
if this thing's going to run.

It will. I think it's time we found out.
Here, use this power charge. Yes, sir!

Come on, Kitster. Let's move away.

My-My mouth.
Ani, I am stuck.

Uh, hey. My tongue is fat. Ani!
You're quite right. He's very odd indeed.

- Oh. Th-Thank you.
- Go.

- It's working!
- It's working!

Stay still, Ani. Let me clean this cut.

There's so many.
Do they all have a system of planets?

Most of them.

Has anyone been to them all?
Not likely.

I want to be the first one to see them all.

Ani, bedtime! Ow!
There we are. Good as new.

Ani, I am not going to tell you again.

What are you doing?
Checking your blood for infections.

Go on. You have a big day tomorrow.

Sleep well, Ani.

Obi-Wan?
Yes, Master?

I need an analysis of this blood sample
I am sending you. Wait a minute.

I need a midi-chlorian count.

The reading is off the chart.

Over 20,000.

Even Master Yoda doesn't have a midi-chlorian
count that high. No Jedi has.

What does that mean?

I am not sure.

I want to see your spaceship
the moment the race is over.

Patience, my blue friend. You will have
your winnings before the suns set.

And we will be far away from here.

Not if your ship belongs to me, I think, huh?
I warn you, no funny business.

You don't think Anakin can win? Don't get me wrong?
No. I have great faith in the boy.

He's a credit to your race, but, uh,
Sebulba there is going to win, I think.

Oh, no!

Why do you think that?
He always wins!

I am betting heavily on Sebulba.

- I will take that bet.
- You what?

I will wager my new racing pod against,
say, the boy and his mother.

No pod is worth two slaves, not by a long shot.
The boy, then.

Hmm. Well, uh.....

We will let fate decide, huh?

I just happen to have a chance cube here.
Blue, it's the boy.

Red, uh... his mother.

You won this small toss, outlander, but you won't
win the race! So it makes little difference!

Better stop your friend's betting
or I will end up owning him too.

What'd he mean by that?
I will tell you later. Good morning.

Oh, my.
Space travel sounds rather perilous.

I can assure you, they will never get me
onto one of those dreadful starships.

This is so wizard, Ani.
I am sure you will do it this time.

- Do what?
- Finish the race, of course.

- You have never won a race?
- Well, not exactly. Not even finished?

Kitster's right. I will this time.
Of course you will.

Podracers.
That's absolutely right.

And a big turnout here from all corners
of the outer rim territories.

I see the contestants are making their way
out onto the starting grid.

I see Ben Quadinaros from the Tund System.

Two-time winner Boles Roor.

Sebulba.....

And in the front row, nearside pole position,
Mawhonic!

A hearty hello to Clegg Holdfast and
his Voltec KT9 Wasp! Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm.

And back again, it's the mighty Dud Bolt

with that incredible racing machine,
the Vulptereen 327.

And hoping for a big win today,

Ody Mandrell,
with his record-setting pit droid team.

And a late entry,
young Anakin Skywalker, a local boy.

I see the flags are moving
out onto the track.

Huh?

Pee yousa!

Be safe.

I will, Mom. I promise.

Uh-oh....

You won't walk away from this one...

you slave scum.

Don't count on it, slime ball.

You're bantha fodder!

You all set, Ani?
Yep.

- Right.
- Whoa!

Remember, concentrate on the moment.

Feel, don't think. Use your instincts.
I will.

May the Force be with you.

Jabba the Hutt.

Mmm.....

Welcome.

Begin the race!

Hey, it looks
like they're clearing the grid.

Is he nervous?
He's fine.

You Jedi are far too reckless.

The queen is not...
The queen trusts my judgment, young handmaiden.

You should too.

You assume too much.

Start your engines.

Oh, dissen going to be messy.
Me no watch'n!

Oh....

Oh, no!
No....

Wait. Little Skywalker has stalled.
It's too bad.

Well, it looks like
Quadinaros is having engine trouble also.

Come on, Ani!

And there goes Skywalker! Go, Ani, go!
He will be hard-pressed to catch up with the leaders.

Ehh....

Haaaa.....

Looks like a few Tusken Raiders
are camped out on the canyon dune turn.

Doowat macroon!

Ooh, there goes Quadinaros' power coupling.

Cheespa wata!
Ooh!

- Chubba ni chees Sebulba!
- Paketa! Kulkah meeka!

Ody Mandrell coona wa wunda dungo!

Whoa....

Oh, no....

Oh.....

Where is Master Anakin?

Look. Here he comes.

It looks like Skywalker is moving
up in the field. Yay! Yippee!

He has to complete two more circuits?
Oh, dear.

Ah....

Ha....

Arrr....

Skywalker's spinning out of control!

Oh, I don't care what universe you're from.
That's got to hurt!

Here he comes! Owoo! At the start of the
third and final lap, Sebulba's in the lead,

followed closely by Skywalker!
Go, Ani!

Skywalker's been forced
onto the service ramp!

Whoa-oa........

Huh?

It's Skywalker! Sebulba! Amazing!
A quick control thrust, and he's back on course!

Did he crash-ed?

Wah hota!

Skywalker's in trouble!
Sebulba takes the lead!

He's catching Sebulba! Inkabunga!
Careful, Ani. Careful, Ani!

Wha-Chuba da noya!

That little human being is out of his mind. Punda
tah punda! They're side by side! Bangu du bangu!

Wa-waaaaah......

Aaah.....

Poo doo!

Yippee! Yay!
Ya eeka buta! Whoo-hoo-hoo!

I can't believe it.

The crowds are going nuts!
Oh! Ah! Oh! Ah!

Ooh! Ah! Ooh! Ah! Ooh! Ah! Ooh! Ah!
Yay, Ani!

Mom, I did it!
Yeah.....

Ohh....

Good going, Ani!

We owe you everything, Ani.

Mmm! Aww.
It's so wonderful, Ani.

You have brought hope
to those who have none.

I am so very proud of you.

- Aww.........
- Oy, chuba no.

"You."

You swindled me! You knew the boy was gonna win.
Somehow you knew it.

I lost everything.

Whenever you gamble,
my friend, eventually you will lose.

Bring the parts to the main hangar.

I will come by your shop later on
so you can release the boy.

You can't have him.
It wasn't a fair bet.

Would you like to discuss it
with the Hutts?

I am sure they can settle this.

Take him.

Hidoe!

Well, we have
all the essential parts we need.

I am going back.
Some unfinished business. I won't be long.

Why do I sense we have picked up
another pathetic life-form?

It's the boy who's responsible
for getting us these parts.

Get this hyper-drive generator installed.
Yes, Master. That shouldn't take long.

Come on. Hup!

Hey.
These are yours.

Yes!

Mom, we sold the pod!

Look at all the money we have! My goodness!
But that's so wonderful, Ani. And he has been freed.

- What?
- You're no longer a slave.

Did you hear that?
Now you can make your dreams come true, Ani.

You are free.

Will you take him with you?
Is he to become a Jedi? Yes.

Our meeting was not a coincidence.
Nothing happens by accident.

You mean I get to come
with you in your starship?

Anakin....

...training to become a Jedi
is not an easy challenge...

....and even if you succeed, it's a hard life.

But I want to go.
It's what I have always dreamed of doing.

Can I go, Mom?

Anakin....

....this path has been placed before you.

The choice is yours alone.

I want to do it.

Then pack your things.
We haven't much time. Yippee....

What about Mom?

Is she free too? I tried to free your mother,
Ani, but Watto wouldn't have it.

You're coming with us, aren't you, Mom?

Son, my place is here. My future is here.
It is time for you to let go.

I don't want things to change.
But you can't stop the change...

...any more than you can stop
the suns from setting.

Oh, I love you.

Now hurry.

Thank you.
I will watch after him. You have my word.

Will you be all right?
Yeah.

Oh! Oh, my. Oh!
Hello, Master Anakin.

Well, 3PO, I have been freed
and I am going away in a starship.

Master Anakin,
you are my maker and I wish you well.

However, I should prefer it
if I were a little more completed.

I am sorry I wasn't able to finish you, 3PO,
give you coverings and all.

I am going to miss working on you.
You have been a great pal.

I will make sure Mom doesn't sell
you or anything. Sell me? Bye.

Oh, my....

I can't do it, Mom. I just can't do it.
Ani.

Will I ever see you again?

What does your heart tell you?

- I hope so.
- Yes. I guess.

Then we will see each other again.

I will come back and free you, Mom.
I promise.

Now, be brave...

....and don't look back.

Don't look back.

- Qui-Gon, sir, wait! I am tired!
- Anakin! Drop!

Go!
Tell them to take off!

Qui-Gon's in trouble.

Take off.

Over there. Fly low.

Are you all right?

I think so.

What was it? I am not sure,
but it was well-trained in the Jedi arts.

My guess is it was after the queen.

What are we going to do about it?

We shall be patient.
Anakin Skyalker, meet Obi-Wan Kenobi. Hi.

You're a Jedi too? Pleased to meet you.

Your queen is lost, your people are starving,
and you, Governor, are going to die...

...much sooner than your people, I am afraid.
This invasion will gain you nothing.

We're a democracy. The people have decided.
Take him away.

My troops are in position to begin searching
the swamps for these rumored underwater villages.

They will not stay hidden for long.

The death toll is catastrophic.
We must bow to their wishes.

You must contact me.

You all right?
It's very cold.

You come from a warm planet, Ani.

A little too warm for my taste.

Space is cold.

You seem sad.

The queen is worried.

Her people are suffering, dying.

She must convince the senate to intervene,
or I am not sure what will happen.

I made this for you...

...so you'd remember me.
I carved it out of a japor snippet.

It will bring you good fortune.

It's beautiful.
But I don't need this to remember you by.

Many things will change when we reach the capital,
Ani, but my caring for you will remain.

I care for you, too, only I...
Miss your mother.

Coruscant.
The entire planet is one big city.

There's Chancellor Valorum's shuttle.

And look over there.
Senator Palpatine is waiting for us.

It is a great gift to see you alive, Your Majesty.

With the communications breakdown,
we have been very concerned.

I am anxious to hear your
report on the situation.

May I present Supreme Chancellor Valorum.

Welcome, Your Highness.
It's an honor to finally meet you in person.

Thank you, Supreme Chancellor.

I must relay to you how distressed
everyone is over the current situation.

I have called for a special session
of the senate to hear your position.

I am grateful for your concern, Chancellor.

There is a question of procedure,
but I am confident we can overcome it.

I must speak with the Jedi Council immediately.
The situation has become much more complicated.

Ani.... come on.

The queen's a being grossly nice, mesa tinks.

Pitty hot.

There is no civility, only politics.
The Republic is not what it once was.

The senate is full of greedy,
squabbling delegates.

There is no interest in the common good.

I must be frank, Your Majesty. There is little
chance the senate will act on the invasion.

Chancellor Valorum
seems to think there is hope.

If I may say so, Your Majesty,
the chancellor has little real power.

He is mired by baseless
accusations of corruption.

The bureaucrats are in charge now.
What options have we?

Our best choice would be to push for the
election of a stronger supreme chancellor,

one who could control the bureaucrats
and give us justice.

You could call for a Vote of no confidence
in Chancellor Valorum.

He has been our strongest supporter.

Our only other choice
would be to submit a plea to the courts.

The courts take even longer to
decide things than the senate.

Our people are dying, Senator.

We must do something quickly
to stop the Federation.

To be realistic, Your Majesty,

I think we're going to have to accept
Federation control for the time being.

That is something I cannot do.

He was trained in the Jedi arts.
My only conclusion can be that it was a Sith lord.

Impossible.
The Sith have been extinct for a millennium.

I do not believe the Sith
could have returned without us knowing.

Ah, hard to see, the dark side is.

We will use all our resources to unravel this mystery.
We will discover the identity of your attacker.

May the Force be with you.

Master Qui-Gon.
More to say have you?

With your permission, my master,

I have encountered a vergence in the Force.

A vergence, you say?
Located around a person? A boy.

His cells have the highest concentration of
midi-chlorians I have seen in a life-form.

It is possible he was conceived
by the midi-chlorians.

You refer to the prophecy of the one
who will bring balance to the Force.

You believe it's this boy?

I don't presume to...
But you do. Revealed your opinion is.

I request the boy be tested, Master.

Oh?
Trained as a Jedi you request for him, hmm?

Finding him was the will of the Force.
I have no doubt of that.

Bring him before us, then.

The boy's here to see Padm�.
Let him in.

I am sorry, Ani, but Padm�'s not here right now.
Who is it?

Anakin Skywalker to see Padm�, Your Highness.
I have sent Padm� on an errand.

I am on my way to the Jedi temple
to start my training, I hope.

I may never see her again,
so I came to say good-bye.

We will tell her for you.
We are sure her heart goes with you.

Thank you, Your Highness.

The chair recognizes the senator
from the sovereign system of Naboo.

Supreme Chancellor, delegates of the senate,

a tragedy has occurred...

...which started right here
with the taxation of trade routes...

...and has now engulfed our entire planet
in the oppression of the Trade Federation.

This is outrageous!
I object to the senator's statements.

The chair does not recognize the senator
from the Trade Federation at this time.

To state our allegations, I present Queen Amidala,
recently elected ruler of the Naboo,

who speaks on our behalf.

Honorable representatives of the Republic,

I come to you
under the gravest of circumstances.

The Naboo system has been invaded by the droid
armies of the Trade... I object! There is no proof!

This is incredible.

We recommend a commission be sent to Naboo
to ascertain the truth.

The Congress of Malastare concurs with the
honorable delegate from the Trade Federation.

A commission must be appointed. The point...
Excuse me, Chancellor. Enter the bureaucrat.

The true rulers of the Republic.

And on the payroll of the Trade Federation,
I might add.

This is where Chancellor Valorum's strength
will disappear.

The point is conceded.

Will you defer your motion to allow a commission
to explore the validity of your accusations?

I will not defer. I have come before you to
resolve this attack on our sovereignty now.

I was not elected to watch my people suffer and die
while you discuss this invasion in a committee.

If this body is not capable of action,
I suggest new leadership is needed.

I move for a Vote of no
confidence in Chancellor Valorum's leadership.

Vote now!

Vote now!

Vote now!

Vote now!

Vote now!

Vote now!

Vote now! Order!

Now they will elect a new chancellor,

a strong chancellor,

one who will not let our tragedy continue.

The boy will not pass the council's test, Master.
He's too old.

Anakin will become a Jedi, I promise you.

Do not defy the council, Master, not again.
I shall do what I must, Obi-Wan.

If you would just follow the code,
you would be on the council.

They will not go along with you this time.

You still have much to learn,
my young apprentice.

A ship.

A cup.

A ship.

A speeder.

Hmm....

- How feel you?
- Cold, sir.

Afraid are you?
No, sir.

See through you we can.
Be mindful of your feelings.

Your thoughts dwell on your mother.

I miss her. Mmm.
Afraid to lose her, I think, mmm?

What has that got to do with anything?
Everything.

Fear is the path to the dark side.
Fear leads to anger. Anger leads to hate.

Hate leads to suffering.

I sense much fear in you.

Yousa tinking yousa people ganna die?
I don't know.

Gungans get pasted too, eh?

I hope not. Gungans no dying without a fight.
Wesa warriors.

Wesa got a grand army.

Dat's why you no liken us, mesa tinks.
Your Highness?

Your Highness.

Senator Palpatine has been nominated to
succeed Valorum as supreme chancellor.

A surprise, to be sure, but a welcome one.

Your Majesty, if I am elected,
I promise to put an end to corruption.

Who else has been nominated?

Bail Antilles of Alderaan
and Ainlee Teem of Malastare.

I feel confident our situation
will create a strong sympathy vote for us.

I will be chancellor.

I fear by the time you have control
of the bureaucrats, Senator,

there will be nothing left of our people,
our way of life.

I understand your concern, Your Majesty.

Unfortunately, the Federation
has possession of our planet.

Senator, this is your arena.
I feel I must return to mine.

I have decided to go back to Naboo.
Go back? But, Your Majesty, be realistic.

They will force you to sign the treaty.
I will sign no treaty, Senator.

My fate will be no different
than that of our people.

Captain. Your Highness. Ready my ship.
Please. Your Majesty, stay here where it's safe.

It is clear to me now
that the Republic no longer functions.

I pray you will bring
sanity and compassion back to the senate.

The Force is strong with him.
He is to be trained, then?

No, he will not be trained.
No....?

He is too old.

He is the chosen one. You must see it.
Mmm. Clouded this boy's future is.

I will train him, then.

I take Anakin as my Padawan learner.

An apprentice you have, Qui-Gon.
Impossible to take on a second.

The code forbids it. Obi-Wan is ready.
I am ready to face the trials.

Our own counsel we will keep on who is ready.

He is headstrong, and he has much to learn
of the living Force, but he is capable.

There is little more he can learn from me.

Young Skywalker's fate...

will be decided later.

Now is not the time for this.

The senate is voting for a new supreme
chancellor, and Queen Amidala is returning home,

which will put pressure on the Federation
and could widen the confrontation.

And draw out the queen's attacker.

Go with the queen to Naboo and discover
the identity of this dark warrior.

This is the clue we need
to unravel the mystery of the Sith.

May the Force be with you.

It's not disrespect, Master.
It's the truth. From your point of view.

The boy is dangerous.
They all sense it. Why can't you?

His fate is uncertain. He's not dangerous.
The council will decide Anakin's future.

That should be enough for you.
Now get on board.

Qui-Gon, sir, I don't want to be a problem.
You won't be, Ani.

I am not allowed to train you,
so I want you to watch me and be mindful.

Always remember.

Your focus determines your reality.

Stay close to me and you will be safe. Master,
sir, I heard Yoda talking about midi-chlorians.

I have been wondering.
What are midi-chlorians?

Midi-chlorians are a microscopic life-form
that resides within all living cells.

They live inside me? Inside your cells, yes.
And we are symbionts with them. Symbionts?

Life-forms living together
for mutual advantage.

Without the midi-chlorians, life could not exist
and we would have no knowledge of the Force.

They continually speak to us,
telling us the will of the Force.

When you learn to quiet your mind,
you will hear them speaking to you.

I don't understand. With time and training.
Ani, you will. You will.

Your Majesty, it is our pleasure to continue to
serve and protect you. I welcome your help.

Senator Palpatine fears
that the Federation means to destroy me.

I assure you I will not
allow that to happen.

Wesa going ho-o-o-me.....
Come on, R2.

Is the planet secure?

We have taken over the last pockets
of primitive life-forms.

We are in complete control of the planet now.

Good. I will see to it that in the senate
things stay as they are.

I am sending my apprentice,
Darth Maul, to join you.

- Yes, my lord.
- A Sith here?

Those are the forward stabilizers.

And those two control the pitch?

You catch on pretty quick.

As soon as we land, the Federation will
arrest you and force you to sign the treaty.

I agree. I am not sure
what you wish to accomplish by this.

I will take back what's ours.

There are too few of us, Your Highness.

We have no army.

And I can only protect you.
I can't fight a war for you. JarJar Binks.

Mesa, Your Highness?

Yes. I need your help.

I have one battleship on my scope.
It's a droid control ship.

They have probably spotted us.

We haven't much time.

JarJar is on his way to the Gungan city, Master.
Good. Do you think the queen's idea will work?

The Gungans will not be easily swayed.

And we cannot use our power to help her.

I am... I am sorry for my behavior, Master.

It's not my place
to disagree with you about the boy.

And I am grateful you think
I am ready to take the trials.

You have been a good apprentice, Obi-Wan.

And you're a much wiser man than I am.

I foresee you will become a great Jedi knight.

Desa nobody dare.
The Gungan city is deserted.

Some kind of fight, mesa tinks.

Do you think they have been
taken to the camps?

More likely they were wiped out.

Mesa no tink so.
Do you know where they are, JarJar?

When in trouble, Gungans go to sacred place.

Mesa show you. Come on. Mesa show you!

Your Honor, Queen Amidala of the Naboo.

Uh, h-heyo dadee,
Big Boss Nass, Your Honor.

JarJar Binks.
Who's da uss-en uthers?

I am Queen Amidala of the Naboo.

I come before you in peace.

Ah, Naboo biggen.

Yousa bringen da Mackineeks.

Yousa all bombad.

We have searched you out because we wish
to form an alliance.... Your Honor.

Whosa dis?

I am Queen Amidala.
Huh?

This is my decoy,
my protection, my loyal bodyguard.

I am sorry for my deception,
but it was necessary to protect myself.

Although we do not always agree, Your Honor,
our two great societies have always lived in peace.

Ah. The Trade Federation has destroyed all
that we have worked so hard to build.

If we do not act quickly,
all will be lost forever.

I ask you to help us.
No, I beg you to help us.

We are your humble servants.

Our fate is in your hands.
Mmm....

Ha.....

Yousa no tinken yousa
greater den da Gungans?

Me-e-esa lika dis!

Maybe...

.....wesa.....

...bein friends.

Yippee! Ya-hoo!
We have sent our patrols.

We already located their starship in the swamp.
It won't be long, my lord.

This is an unexpected move for her.
It's too aggressive.

Lord Maul, be mindful.
Let them make the first move. Yes, my master.

- Deysa comin!
- All right!

They're here!
Good. They made it.

Yousa doen grand.

JarJar bring uss-en and da Naboo together.
Ah, no, no, no. So....

...wesa make you bombad general.
General?

Captain. Your Highness.
What is the situation?

Almost everyone's in camps.

A few hundred police and guards have
formed an underground resistance movement.

I brought back
as many of the leaders as I could.

The Federation army's also much larger
than we thought, and much stronger.

Your Highness, this is a battle
I do not think that we can win.

The battle is a diversion.

The Gungans must draw the droid army
away from the cities. R2.

We can enter the city using the secret
passages on the waterfall side.

Once we get to the main entrance,
Captain Panaka will create a diversion.

Then we can enter the palace
and capture the viceroy.

Without the viceroy,
they will be lost and confused.

What do you think, Master Jedi?
The viceroy will be well-guarded.

The difficulty is getting
into the throne room.

Once we're inside,
we shouldn't have a problem.

There is a possibility, with this diversion,
many Gungans will be killed.

Wesa ready to do our-san part.

We have a plan which should
immobilize the droid army.

We will send what pilots we have to knock out
the droid control ship orbiting the planet.

A well-conceived plan.
However, there's great risk.

The weapons on your fighters may not penetrate
the shields. And there's an even bigger danger.

If the viceroy escapes, Your Highness,
he will return with another droid army.

Well, that is why we must not
fail to get the viceroy.

Everything depends on it.

She is more foolish than I thought.

We are sending all troops to meet this army
assembling near the swamp.

It appears to be made up of primitives.

This will work to our advantage.

I have your approval to proceed, then, my lord?
Wipe them out.

All of them.

Halt!

Starting up the shield.

Open fire.

Once we get inside, you find a
safe place to hide and stay there.

Sure.
Stay there.

Roger. Roger.

I thought the battle was going to take
place far from here. This is too close.

Ani, find cover.

Quick!
Get to your ships!

Aah......

Aah......

- Fighters straight ahead.
- Roger, Bravo Leader. Roger, Bravo Leader.

Cease fire.

- Steady.
- Steady.

Activate the droids.
Yes, sir.

Ouch time.

Fire....

Whoa-ohh!

Aah....
Whoa.....

My guess is the viceroy's in the throne room.
Red group! Blue group! Everybody, this way!

Hey, wait for me!

Anakin, stay where you are. You will be safe there.
But I... Stay in that cockpit.

- We will handle this.
- We will take the long way.

We got to do something, R2.

I am trying to!
I don't know where the trigger is!

Oops, wrong one. Maybe it's this one.
Nope. Wait. Here it is.

Yeah.....

Let's go!

It's on automatic pilot.

Try to override it.

We don't have time for this, Captain.

Look! There they are.
That's where the autopilot's taking us.

Huh? Waaah! Aah! Aah!
Aah!

Aaah! Hmm! Dumb droid. Take that!
Get off! Get off! Get off! Get off!

Ooh! Ooh! Mooie!
Whoo-hoo! Aah!

The deflector shield is too strong.

This is tense!

Whoa! R2, get us off this autopilot.
It's going to get us both killed.

You did it, R2!
Okay, let's go left.

Go back? Qui-Gon told me to stay in this cockpit,
so that's what I am going to do.

I will try spinning. That's a good trick.
Whoa!

I know we're in trouble.
Just hang on.

Go....

Ascension guns!

Retreat....
Retreat.....

Dis is nutsen.

Hyah.....

O-O-Ohh....

- Uh-oh. Big boomers.
- Ohh! Ohh!

Uh-oh!
Aaah....

Hey! Hey!

Give me a lift! Aaah! Oh!

Aaah!

Ohh!

JarJar, usen da booma!
What? Mesa no have a booma!

Here. Taken dis one.
Whoa! Whoa! Whoa! Whoa! Whoa! Aah!

Aah! Aah! Aah!
Whoa-ohh....

- Oh! Oh! Oh!
- Aaah! Help me!

JarJar!
Jump, JarJar, jump!

Put down your weapons.
They win this round.

We're hit, R2!
Aah.....

Aaah.....

I am trying to stop!
I am trying to stop!

Everything's overheated.
Oops. This is not good.

No.....

No giben up, General JarJar.
Mesa tink of something.

- Hands up.
- My give up. My give up.

Your little insurrection is at an end, Your Highness.

Time for you to sign the treaty and end
this pointless debate in the senate. Viceroy!

Your occupation here has ended.

After her. This one's a decoy.

Captain.

Jam the doors.

Now, Viceroy, we will discuss a new treaty.

Yes! We have power.
Shields up.

Take this......

.....and this!
Whoa......

Oops. We're losing power. There seems to be
a problem with the main reactor. Impossible!

Nothing can get through our shield.

Let's get out of here.

What's that?
It's blowing up from the inside!

We didn't hit it.

Now, this is Podracing.

- Look, one of ours, out of the main hold!
- Whoo...

- Whoo!
- Yeah! Hee-hee!

What the....

Was'n they doing?
The control ship has been destroyed. Look!

They all broke-ed.

- No, it... it's too late.
- No. Obi-Wan.

Promise. Promise me you will train the boy.
Yes, Master.

He is the chosen one.

He... will bring balance.

Train him.

Now, Viceroy,

you're going to have to go back to
the senate and explain all this.

I think you can kiss
your trade franchise good-bye.

We are indebted to you for your bravery,
Obi-Wan Kenobi. And you, young Skyalker.

We will watch your career with great interest.

Congratulations on your election, Chancellor.

Your boldness has saved our people, Your Majesty.
It's you who should be congratulated.

Together we shall bring
peace and prosperity to the Republic.

Confer on you the level of Jedi knight
the council does.

But agree with your taking this boy
as your Padawan learner. I do not.

Qui-Gon believed in him.

The chosen one the boy may be.
Nevertheless,

grave danger I fear in his training.
Master Yoda, I gave Qui-Gon my word.

I will train Anakin.
Ohh!

Without the approval of the council, if I must.
Qui-Gon's defiance I sense in you.

Need that you do not.

Agree with you the council does.

Your apprentice Skywalker will be.

What will happen to me now? The council
have granted me permission to train you.

You will be a Jedi, I promise.

There's no doubt the mysterious warrior was a Sith.
Mmm. Always two there are. No more, no less.

A master and an apprentice.

But which was destroyed?
The master or the apprentice?

Hello, everybody!

Peace....
Ya-hoo.......
