We'll be arriving shortly, Master.

Set us down well clear of the village.

Tensions are high enough.

Yes, Master.

Excuse me. Sorry to trouble y--

[Dooku] Where is the child?

Where are they holding the Senator's son?

Why should we tell you?

Allow me to make my intentions clear.

Jedi.

We are here to help resolve the situation.

For the Senator.

For everyone.

What do you know of Senator Dagonet?

He is one of the longest-standing Senators in the Republic.

Yes, and when you entered this village, you could see the effects

of his long-standing policies.

With due respect, if you don't like him, why not elect a new Senator?

I wish it were that simple.

Perhaps, in the beginning, Senator Dagonet was a good person

and had the interests of the people in mind. But now--

Come, I will show you where the Senator's son is.

You're one of the kidnappers?

They all are.

Have you been treated well?

For a prisoner, yes.

Besides, I have Two-ton here to keep me company.

Your ordeal will soon be over.

It's not much of an ordeal.

Not compared to how these people are living.

And you were not aware of these conditions?

I rarely leave the capital.

When I do, I spend time off-world on Coruscant,

not here.

How could my father allow this to happen to his people?

You don't blame them for abducting you?

What choice did they have?

The Senator, he's here! And he's brought soldiers.

You have deceived us, Master Jedi.

No, our coming here was not known to the Senator.

She is hungry.

Many would do the same.

Jedi, arrest these criminals and have them release my son at once.

I'm afraid our investigation is not yet complete, Senator.

Investigation?

They abducted my son.

I demand his release!

Let me assure you your son is in no immediate danger.

I'll be the judge of that.

Guards!

Step aside, Jedi.

We cannot.

You serve the Senate.

No.

We serve the people of this Republic.

So be it.

Ready!

Aim!

Stand down.

I will not.

Fire!

No!

Halt!

I will destroy this town

and make an example of it, and many others.

None shall defy me!

Not even you, Master Jed--

Master.

Go! Save your father.

-What? -Go now.

-Corruption like yours must be eradicated.

No!

Stop!

Master, it's over.

My son.

Father, how could you do this?

These are your people…

our people!

I will not allow your suffering to continue.

I promise.

I wonder if any meaningful change will come of this.

Is that why you took action into your own hands?

Your actions saved many lives today.

Just thinking in the moment, Master.

Well, then.

You're a much wiser man than I, Qui-Gon Jinn.

Thanks to your teachings.

You've been studying that tablet for a long time.

Are the answers you need over Master Katri's death in that file?

No.

And Senator Larik's testimony isn't enough for you?

Master Katri died from an ambush.

My instincts tell me it is not that simple.

Who ambushed the senator? Why?

And if Master Katri was killed, how did the senator escape?

Why are you concerning yourself with these questions?

The Council gave us our instructions.

To return Master Katri's body to the Jedi Temple,

so she can have a proper burial.

But something more should be done.

Since we are not members of the Council,

we cannot involve ourselves in local political skirmishes,

unless requested by the Jedi High Council or Senate.

My friend,

your devotion to rules is sometimes inspiring and sometimes maddening.

Welcome to Raxus Secundus.

I am Jedi Master Windu, and this is Master Dooku.

We are here to see Senator Larik.

We are saddened by what happened to Master Katri.

She was well respected and will be missed.

I will take you to Senator Larik.

I was at my residence on Coruscant when I was contacted by these rebels.

Considering they were threatening war,

I decided to return to Raxus, to hear them out.

Why would you choose to go without a security detail?

Because I hoped for peace on Raxus, and I'm willing to do anything for it.

I confided as much to Master Katri when she arrived.

Being the Jedi that she was, she refused to let me out of her sight.

And she paid for it with her life.

Senator, we've taken enough of your time.

If you can show us where Master Katri's body is…

Before we do that,

I'd like to see where you and Katri went to meet this informer.

To go back there and relive the incident would be heartbreaking.

I can show you where this tragic incident happened.

We responded to the senator's distress signal.

By the time we arrived, it was too late to save Master Katri.

Let us be on our way.

It's obvious that he's hiding something.

We should take this information back to the Council.

Would you want Katri to leave without finding out what happened to you?

I would want her to follow protocol.

How many attackers were there, Senator?

It happened so fast. I-I couldn't give you an exact number.

Master Katri exited the ship first,

and before she could clear the area, they descended upon her.

Firing upon her immediately?

From what I can remember.

It was terrifying.

If Master Katri were fired upon here, why are there no blast marks on your ship?

No damage?

Judging from your description,

someone fired from the direction of the ship.

For a Jedi to succumb to a surprise attack is rare.

Unless that attack is from someone one would trust. Like you.

I will have the truth.

Dooku. Stand down.

The guards killed her!

Tell us what really happened.

You and all of the Senate puppets will see a reckoning!

No!

Tell us your reason for killing Master Katri.

We are part of a group who learned Larik was using a Senate seat

to become rich at the expense of our people and planet.

He was willing to bleed Raxus dry,

luring off-world companies to come in and industrialize the land.

He was selling off our planet piece by piece.

All from his comfortable residence on faraway Coruscant.

So you lured Larik here.

However, if you killed Katri, why did you let the senator live?

Because we were going to force him to put forth our own agenda

at the next Senate hearing meeting.

Why didn't you take this to the proper authorities?

Katri was a keeper of the peace.

Jedi are lapdogs of the Senate. Their bidding always comes first.

It's evident throughout the galaxy.

Jedi claim peace but mostly keep law and order for the rich and powerful.

Katri was a Jedi. She would've listened.

Your ideology, while faulty, does have its points.

I'm surprised to hear that from a Jedi.

Dooku.

I don't condone your methods,

but you had every right to protect your planet.

Make sure your people don't lose heart and evolve, Semage.

It is the only way you will truly have victory.

I say that for all of us.

The Council will have questions.

I believe they'll be happy to know that we solved Master Katri's murder.

But will they be happy with your tactics?

I have no problem explaining myself.

Now, let me ask you one thing.

Proceed.

Do you think the Jedi will truly keep peace

if they continue to take everything the Senate says as law?

Luckily, we are guided by our Council and not by politics nor ego.

Master Katri was patient with younglings and Jedi

who questioned themselves relentlessly.

She was of the Force.

It flowed with certainty through her.

Windu.

A minute?

I am told you will be presented with Master Katri's Council seat.

I will.

Is this something you knew was happening before we left for Raxus?

I was as surprised as you are now.

Dooku, you and I both were together when the mission was assigned.

I stuck to the mission.

You decided to interfere in a way that led to a senator's death.

I will speak to the Council on your behalf.

How kind of you, Master Jedi.

What's causing all the excitement, Master Jocasta?

Your apprentice.

Qui-Gon?

Yes, it would seem he has encountered a Sith Lord,

or so he claimed to the Jedi High Council.

Where was this encounter?

Tatooine. Yes, I think that was it.

Deep in the Outer Rim, of course.

Qui-Gon Jinn always had such an active imagination.

As did you, Dooku.

A quality valued less and less in these great halls.

I guess word travels fast.

Well, your statements to the Council were rather surprising.

Qui-Gon.

Master.

I heard of your report to the Council.

Tell me about this mysterious attacker on Tatooine.

I encountered a highly skilled warrior, one obviously trained in the Jedi arts.

And you believe it was a Sith Lord?

Yes.

I gather the Council was not eager to validate that conclusion?

No, they were not, Master.

I've been warning them about the coming darkness for years,

never to be taken seriously.

Speaking on behalf of the Council, there's no reason to cause undue alarm.

So, you doubt his claim?

No. I do not.

But the wisdom of the Council is to be cautious until we know more.

Master Yaddle is right about one thing.

A Sith Lord is not to be trifled with.

And I will not be there to protect you, my old Padawan.

You need not worry, Master.

Obi-Wan fills that role now.

He acquits himself quite well.

That's good. I should like to meet him someday.

You're always singing his praises.

Master Dooku, are you all right?

They grow up so fast, our students.

Yes, it is the way of things.

Indeed.

I must take my leave.

I used to bring Qui-Gon here as a boy.

He was fascinated with this tree.

Having been born here on Coruscant, a planet of steel and stone…

he knew nothing like it.

The Council is leaving for Naboo. The funeral is to be held there.

I doubt I will be pleasant company.

You hold them accountable?

Qui-Gon Jinn has become one with the Force.

It is time to let him go.

And you can do this?

What choice have I?

You've gone too far!

I don't know what you mean.

Qui-Gon Jinn. You allowed Maul to kill him.

You lost an apprentice, and so did I.

All in service of our greater goals.

The galaxy will not be remade without sacrifice.

He could've been a powerful ally.

For you, perhaps.

You question my loyalty?

Always.

I have done everything you asked.

And I will ask more of you, if we are to succeed.

Sifo-Dyas, Kamino, the Clones.

I have betrayed everyone and everything I know.

No, you have been loyal to a greater cause.

How many have died because of my actions?

Such is the price of freedom.

No!

This ends here, Sith Lord.

So, I have been betrayed?

No!

Dooku, step to me. Whatever your crimes are, help me now.

Then you heard? You know.

That does not matter.

Don't believe her.

Whatever lies he's told you, whatever you have done,

you can make up for it now by bringing him to justice.

Remember what you told me.

The Jedi blindly serve a corrupt Senate that fails the Republic it represents.

Do you want to prove your loyalty? Kill her!

There is still a chance to make things right.

I'm afraid--

I know you are.

I'm afraid it is too late.

No.

I am on your side, Dooku.

I stepped down from my position on the Council.

You were right about so many things.

The Council should've listened.

Qui-Gon did not have to die.

Running back to your Council?

It is you who has run, Dooku,

into the arms of evil.

You have done well, my apprentice.

Rise, my friend.

Master.

I want only to bring peace and order to the galaxy.

Already so many have suffered for what you call "order".

Then let me give you peace, Master Yaddle.
