Episode II Dialogue
Today Episode X has provided some dialogue from Episode II. We get to hear from Palpatine and Mace. Spoilers - Highlight to read:
Location: The Senate halls on
Coruscant.
Situation: The vote for a standing army for the Republic is being delayed, due to
the assassination attempt on Senator Amidala's life. After the Naboo Senator has spoken
before the assembled Senate, Palpatine decides to postpone the vote:
PALPATINE
Due to the lateness of the hour and the seriousness of this motion, we will take up these
matters tomorrow. Until then, the Senate stands adjourned.
Shortly after, the Supreme Chancellor is already back in his office sitting behind his desk inside the Executive Quarters Building, two Red Royal Guards on either side of the door. The Chancellor has assembled the venerable Jedi Masters Yoda, Plo Koon, Ki-Adi-Mundi and Mace Windu, to contemplate the recent events:
PALPATINE
I don't know how much longer I can hold off the vote, my friends. More and more star
systems are joining the separatists.
MACE WINDU
If they do break away -
PALPATINE
No! I will not let that happen!
MACE WINDU
But if they do, you must realize there aren't enough Jedi to protect the Republic. We are
keepers of the peace, not soldiers.
I am really glad to see a little Episode II news! It has been pretty slow in coming lately, but you what they say... "The calm before the storm."
