Bail Organa is royality, the reason he is the senator of Alderaan is because he comes from the Royal House of Organa of Alderaan, therefore Leia automatically becomes a princess.

As for the dark side, they have clearly stated in Ep 1 & 2, that when it comes to the dark side, "clouded".

I don't think it took long to turn Anakin, remember Palpatine has been in Anakin's ear since E II....a few years (during the clone wars) and now this.

He may have been keeping an eye on Anakin and the entire plot of the kidnapping was staged, but I really don't think he was planning on coming after Anakin so soon until Dooku opened is big mouth and everything was accelerated. Did you see the look of complete surprise by Dooku, ok he had no clue about the dying, but still......

Another question, it was mentioned in the movie and "only 1 person had cheated death" I'm really wondering if they are referring to Qui-Gon and he communicated with Dooku, once Qui-Gon figured that Dooku went to the dark side (but who was the Sith leader), Qui-Gon appeared to Yoda.

I need to explore that a little more, for those of you that I've just confused with that statement

Master - Padawan
Yoda - Count Dooku
Count Dooku - Qui-Gon
Qui-Gon - Obi-Wan
Obi-Wan - Anakin

Dooku mentioned in Ep II that he wanted to lure Qui-Gon to the dark side, but Obi-Wan said that his master would never do something like that.....THAT leads me to believe that that Dooku had other plans for his master....but that is another story that will never happen.

I have another thought....I really want to know who Sidious's Master was? Master Sifadious?...the guy who order the clones? It has been implied throughout the PT.


Also remember Anakin was struggling up to the point of the fight between Windu and Sidious. I think the last straw for Anakin (and Bad Jedi Council), no one trusted him, Windu understood the confusion going in Anakin, that is why he mention it, but he made the mistake of saying that he didn't trust him, (which I'm sure Anakin sensed himself). Anakin was attempting to make up for his mistake with killing Dooku by not bringing him in front to the council and wanted that with Palpatine (and also the secrets), but it was the trust issue and the years (most likely) of the Council NOT listening to Anakin, but telling him what to do, Palpatine was the only person (not even Padme) listened to him.


I told you that I was THAT much of a SW geek
