Welcome back to part number 2 of what if Anakin told Obi-Wan about Palpatine. Thank you to
all of you who watched the first part of this video! To recap what happened in that episode,
in case you haven’t seen it, Anakin had told his master about Palpatine being the
Sith Lord, and his fears of Padme. Rather than rushing to arrest the Chancellor, Obi-Wan
convinced the Council to gather together, and begin to take down Palpatine’s regime.
With Jedi going to Kamino and Mustafar, Palpatine unleashes his change of plans, by calling
for a meeting in the senate… In the private residence of Senator Bail Organa
of Alderaan, the senator and his allied politicians, knew that this move by Palpatine was a trap
to force the galaxy, to support his new regime. Immediately asking the Jedi Council for their
help, Obi-Wan and Mace Windu leave the Temple to the other Council members, whilst they
disguised themselves as Bail Organa’s guards, on the short journey to the senate building.
Rather than passing between the two lines of senate guards, Organa guides them through
a little-known side entrance, and intercepts the other senators, before they could enter
into their individual pods. The Jedi then use mind tricks to divert the senators away
from the building, ensuring that nobody would be coerced into supporting the new regime.
The plan proceeds as the Jedi had foreseen, until the real senate guards begin to turn
back from their post at the entrance, and are surprised by the lack of commotion. Palpatine
is enraged upon being notified of their betrayal, and declared to the whole city, that they
would pay for their abandonment of his new Galactic Empire, but in his mind, he knew
he would have to wait for Anakin, before he could begin the purge of the Jedi. The Jedi
knight, was a considerable distance away from Palpatine, planning on capturing the Kaminoans
with Shaak Ti, and soon they arrived through the dark and gloomy clouds to their destination.
With their trust in the clones shaken, the Jedi quietly enter the facility, but still
gravely concerned about the life of Padme, Anakin quickly rushed through the facility,
setting all of the security alarms. The Kaminoan security force start to run through the corridors,
pointing their weapons around every turn, but the Jedi were too fast, and breached the
defences to enter Nala Se’s laboratory. Pointing their lightsabers at the Kaminoans,
the scientists protested their innocence, claiming that they were merely carrying out
orders for the Republic, but Anakin’s patience had run out, as he lifted both Nala Se and
Lama Su by their throats, then slammed them into the walls. As their lives started to
dwindle, Master Ti diverted Anakin from his attacks, to look at their data log, and previous
transmissions showed that the Kaminoans had been collaborating with Dooku, to ensure the
real meaning of the clones was guarded from the Jedi. With the mystery of their army exposed,
the Jedi needed to eliminate or overthrow Palpatine, before he could use the clones
to destroy them all, but as a precaution, Master Ti ordered for all of the clone commanders
to remove their control chips. Dragging the Kaminoans into their ship, Anakin can sense
the great danger that had been occupying his mind, and he rushed over to find Padme in
pain. Without Palpatine or the knowledge of the Jedi archives, the Jedi knight carried
the senator back inside, to one of the medical bays, where the medical droids help Padme
to give birth to Luke and Leia. Anakin was distraught with concern, that Padme would
soon be dead, but the medical droids assured him that Padme was alive, and he realised
that his nightmares, and the promises of Palpatine had all been a lie. If the dark side had previously
been simmering within Anakin, it was now an inferno, and swiftly leaving the hovering
platform, the Jedi Council members soon receive the news, that Master Fisto and Master Tiin,
had successfully apprehended the Separatists at their hidden base on Mustafar, and now
the Jedi would gather to make their move against Palpatine. Just as the two groups of Jedi
converged above Coruscant’s atmosphere, they see the Venator class star destroyer
of Ahsoka, arriving from Mandalore move ahead of them, when it is suspended in mid air by
an attack from below. Anakin roared out in anger at the potential demise of his padawan,
but he could still sense her presence from their neighbouring ship, and decided to dive
down through the clouds at full speed. Anakin could see the hooded Palpatine resisting his
attempted attack, so he opened the ramp, and leapt down to the ground, creating a seismic
wave in all directions. The Jedi knight had lost track of the Sith Lord, but before he
could chase after him, all of the Council members are summoned to the Council tower,
by the arriving Grandmaster Yoda. Together, they decide to secret ask the senators to
motion a vote of no confidence, in order to get rid of Palpatine, in the event their attack
failed, when they felt pain in the Force. Across from their elevated position, the Naboo
star skiff that Anakin and Shaak Ti had used, had just been squashed, and Anakin sensed
the pain from Padme, Luke and Leia. There was no time to waste with their lives in the
balance, and breaking the windows of the room, he made one giant leap to save them.
