00:00:18,498 --> 00:00:21,083
NARRATOR: Diplomacy or deception?

2
00:00:21,209 --> 00:00:24,753
The Council of Neutral Systems
speaks for over 1,500 worlds

3
00:00:24,796 --> 00:00:26,839
who want to stay out of the war.

4
00:00:26,923 --> 00:00:29,174
But rumors have reached
the Republic Senate

5
00:00:29,259 --> 00:00:33,095
suggesting that the Council's new leader,
Duchess Satine of Mandalore,

6
00:00:33,179 --> 00:00:37,725
is secretly building her own army
to fight for the Separatist cause.

7
00:00:37,809 --> 00:00:41,562
Now Jedi Master Obi-Wan Kenobi
has been sent to Mandalore

8
00:00:41,646 --> 00:00:44,607
to discover the truth behind these claims.

9
00:00:57,537 --> 00:00:59,788
The Duchess awaits you, General Kenobi.

10
00:01:01,082 --> 00:01:04,168
Far be it for me
to keep the Duchess waiting.

11
00:01:25,565 --> 00:01:27,191
General Kenobi.

12
00:01:28,026 --> 00:01:30,235
Thank you for meeting with me,
Prime Minister Almec.

13
00:01:30,362 --> 00:01:32,446
I welcome you as a servant of the people.

14
00:01:32,530 --> 00:01:36,116
But I am troubled by the false rumors
that brought you here.

15
00:01:36,201 --> 00:01:38,869
Mandalore would never turn
against the Republic.

16
00:01:38,912 --> 00:01:42,581
The Duchess Satine values peace
more than her own life.

17
00:01:42,707 --> 00:01:44,541
Oh, I'm aware of the Duchess's views.

18
00:01:44,626 --> 00:01:48,295
Master Kenobi,
Mandalore's violent past is behind us.

19
00:01:48,380 --> 00:01:52,174
All of our warriors were exiled
to our moon, Concordia.

20
00:01:52,217 --> 00:01:54,259
They died out years ago.

21
00:01:54,719 --> 00:01:56,971
Hmm. Are you certain?

22
00:01:57,055 --> 00:02:01,725
I recently encountered a man
who wore Mandalorian armor. Jango Fett.

23
00:02:01,768 --> 00:02:06,647
Jango Fett was a common bounty hunter.
How he acquired that armor is beyond me.

24
00:02:06,731 --> 00:02:09,149
Well, Master Kenobi.

25
00:02:09,234 --> 00:02:12,528
My shining Jedi Knight
to the rescue once again.

26
00:02:19,077 --> 00:02:22,663
After all these years,
you're even more beautiful than ever.

27
00:02:22,747 --> 00:02:25,749
Kind words from a man
who accuses me of treachery.

28
00:02:27,419 --> 00:02:31,088
I would never accuse you
of personal wrongdoing, Duchess.

29
00:02:31,172 --> 00:02:35,050
However, a Separatist saboteur
attacked one of our Republic cruisers.

30
00:02:35,093 --> 00:02:37,094
A Mandalorian saboteur.

31
00:02:45,228 --> 00:02:46,770
You must be mistaken.

32
00:02:46,855 --> 00:02:50,566
No Mandalorian would engage
in such violence, not anymore.

33
00:02:51,109 --> 00:02:52,443
Where is this prisoner now?

34
00:02:52,569 --> 00:02:55,571
He took his own life
rather than submit to questioning.

35
00:02:56,281 --> 00:02:59,867
I know these commandos fought
in many wars, often against the Jedi.

36
00:02:59,951 --> 00:03:03,287
Every one of my people
is as trustworthy as I am.

37
00:03:03,413 --> 00:03:07,374
-I know we sound defensive, but...
-Clearly, your investigation was ordered

38
00:03:07,459 --> 00:03:10,794
because the Senate is eager
to intervene in our affairs.

39
00:03:10,879 --> 00:03:14,465
My investigation was ordered
by the Jedi Council.

40
00:03:15,216 --> 00:03:17,051
I stand corrected.

41
00:03:17,135 --> 00:03:21,764
General Kenobi, perhaps you'd like
to join me on a walk through the city.

42
00:03:42,077 --> 00:03:45,996
It's so good to see you again, Obi-Wan,

43
00:03:46,539 --> 00:03:48,415
despite the circumstances.

44
00:03:48,500 --> 00:03:50,751
Your peaceful ways have paid off.

45
00:03:50,835 --> 00:03:53,587
Mandalore has prospered
since the last time I was here.

46
00:03:53,671 --> 00:03:56,507
Not everyone on Mandalore believes
that our commitment to peace

47
00:03:56,591 --> 00:03:58,842
is a sign of progress.

48
00:03:58,885 --> 00:04:02,596
There is a group
that calls itself Death Watch.

49
00:04:02,680 --> 00:04:05,849
I imagine these are the renegades
you're looking for.

50
00:04:05,934 --> 00:04:09,978
They idolize violence
and the warrior ways of the past.

51
00:04:10,063 --> 00:04:11,939
There are those among us,
certain officials,

52
00:04:12,023 --> 00:04:14,900
who are working
to root out these criminals.

53
00:04:14,984 --> 00:04:17,194
It has been an ongoing investigation.

54
00:04:17,278 --> 00:04:20,239
How widespread is
this Death Watch movement?

55
00:04:20,323 --> 00:04:24,034
It's hardly a movement.
It's a small group of hooligans

56
00:04:24,119 --> 00:04:27,496
who choose to vandalize public places,
nothing more.

57
00:04:27,580 --> 00:04:30,040
We shall soon have them in custody.

58
00:04:30,125 --> 00:04:33,127
We have tracked them down
to our moon, Concordia.

59
00:04:33,211 --> 00:04:34,837
I hope you're right, Duchess.

60
00:04:40,426 --> 00:04:44,388
I do not understand why
the arrival of this Jedi doesn't upset you.

61
00:04:44,472 --> 00:04:46,390
You promised to support
the Death Watch forces

62
00:04:46,474 --> 00:04:50,310
so we could overthrow the Duchess Satine
and her weak, peace-loving government.

63
00:04:50,395 --> 00:04:53,522
And I intend to keep my promise.

64
00:04:53,606 --> 00:04:56,441
But how? If the Republic interferes now,

65
00:04:56,526 --> 00:04:59,278
Death Watch will not be able
to take over the planet.

66
00:04:59,362 --> 00:05:04,074
Consider, once the Senate orders
peacekeeping troops to Mandalore,

67
00:05:04,159 --> 00:05:08,787
the people will be surrounded by
a military presence. Most distasteful.

68
00:05:09,664 --> 00:05:13,667
-They will rebel.
-And rally to Death Watch.

69
00:05:13,751 --> 00:05:16,253
Our insurgency will grow stronger.

70
00:05:16,296 --> 00:05:18,838
Yes. And Duchess Satine shall fall.

71
00:05:18,838 --> 00:05:21,153
And then Death Watch
will join the Separatists.

72
00:05:22,814 --> 00:05:25,733
A peacekeeper belongs
on the front lines of conflict.

73
00:05:25,792 --> 00:05:28,294
Otherwise, he wouldn't
be able to do his job.

74
00:05:28,378 --> 00:05:33,591
The work of a peacekeeper is
to make sure that conflict does not arise.

75
00:05:33,675 --> 00:05:37,136
Yes, a noble description,
but not a realistic one.

76
00:05:37,220 --> 00:05:40,890
Is reality what makes a Jedi
abandon his ideals?

77
00:05:40,974 --> 00:05:44,393
Or is it simply a response
to political convenience?

-Are you all right?
-I'm fine.

80
00:05:57,658 --> 00:06:00,117
Hooligans couldn't have arranged
an attack of this scale.

81
00:06:00,911 --> 00:06:03,454
Then this must be the work
of an offworlder.

The sign of the Death Watch.

84

This goes far beyond vandalism.

85
00:06:18,220 --> 00:06:21,222
This is a political statement
against your government.

86
00:06:21,264 --> 00:06:23,057

I should like to visit this moon of yours.
Perhaps I could accompany the body.

102

-Actually, it will.

I thought Concordia was
an agricultural settlement.

110

Before the end of our wars,
they turned it into a mining base.

111
00:08:55,712 --> 00:08:59,840
The sheer number of mining facilities here
nearly destroyed our forests.

May I present Master Obi-Wan Kenobi,

Governor Vizsla
is one of the officials I spoke of.

He has been working to find
the members of the Death Watch.

I take it you've heard the rumors
about Satine.

About how she's supposedly
leading Mandalore

into an alliance with the Separatists.

This was the man
who bombed the Memorial Shrine?

122
00:09:46,888 --> 00:09:49,848
Yes. He was apparently
part of Death Watch.

123
00:09:50,391 --> 00:09:52,061
A worrisome prospect.

124
00:09:52,061 --> 00:09:54,144
If you'll pardon me, General,
we must attend to the body

125
00:09:54,204 --> 00:09:55,868
and see if we can identify this murderer.

-Just for a look around.

I'd like to see one of these

130
00:10:08,912 --> 00:10:12,414
You mean you want to determine
if they're still operational.

00:13:50,675 --> 00:13:54,094
OBI-WAN: I'm in a bit of an awkward spot.
I'm being held by the Death Watch.

172
00:13:54,804 --> 00:13:56,930
Sorry, Duchess. We're out of ice.

173
00:13:57,682 --> 00:13:59,391
Sorry to hear that.

174
00:14:01,394 --> 00:14:04,646
Perhaps we should begin dinner
without General Kenobi.

175
00:14:04,731 --> 00:14:08,442
There's a tracking function on your comlink.
Follow it due east to my location.

176
00:14:08,526 --> 00:14:11,111
I don't know if I can do that
at the moment.

177
00:14:11,195 --> 00:14:14,990
-It's extremely urgent!
-Are you not feeling well, Duchess?

178
00:14:15,074 --> 00:14:18,160
Perhaps some fresh air would do me good.

179
00:14:18,244 --> 00:14:20,662
Shall I escort you outside?

180
00:14:20,747 --> 00:14:22,748
OBI-WAN: Take a speeder,
it's rough terrain.

181
00:14:22,790 --> 00:14:25,208
Oh, I'll find my way, never fear.

182
00:14:38,347 --> 00:14:39,931
(BEEPING)

183
00:14:46,606 --> 00:14:47,647
Yes, sir.

184
00:14:47,690 --> 00:14:51,818
Start the machine. Time for the Jedi
to meet with his fatal accident.

185
00:14:52,195 --> 00:14:53,695
With pleasure.

186
00:14:54,030 --> 00:14:56,323
(MACHINE POWERING UP)

187
00:15:03,664 --> 00:15:05,290
This is not good.

188
00:15:15,134 --> 00:15:16,760
Where exactly are you?

189
00:15:17,136 --> 00:15:20,555
Listen for the loud, metallic,
clanging sound.

190
00:15:20,640 --> 00:15:23,183
That would be the machine
about to smash me into bits.

191
00:15:33,194 --> 00:15:36,947
(ALARM BLARING)

192
00:15:37,031 --> 00:15:40,200
There's some kind of disturbance
at the entrance. Let's check it out.

193
00:15:47,542 --> 00:15:49,376
Well, it certainly took you long enough.

194
00:15:49,460 --> 00:15:51,628
You know, I haven't saved you yet!

195
00:15:51,712 --> 00:15:55,215
-Yes, no need to remind me of that.
-Be patient.

196
00:15:55,299 --> 00:15:57,425
I happen to be a bit short on patience
right now!

197
00:16:00,596 --> 00:16:02,264
Now, let's see, one of these...

198
00:16:04,142 --> 00:16:07,978
-Satine, turn the machine off!
-I'm trying!

199
00:16:08,062 --> 00:16:09,312
Satine!

200
00:16:10,690 --> 00:16:11,731
There!

201
00:16:20,116 --> 00:16:21,199
Look out!

202
00:16:38,426 --> 00:16:40,010
For a man sworn to peace,

203
00:16:40,094 --> 00:16:43,597
you take an unseemly pleasure
in the injuries of others.

204
00:16:44,265 --> 00:16:46,224
For a woman sworn to non-violence,

205
00:16:46,267 --> 00:16:49,102
you don't seem troubled
that I could have been killed back there.

206
00:16:49,187 --> 00:16:53,398
But you weren't.
And yet I still haven't heard any thanks.

207
00:16:53,441 --> 00:16:56,109
Well, you certainly haven't changed much.

208
00:17:00,781 --> 00:17:02,616
This is not the way we came in.

209
00:17:03,409 --> 00:17:05,535
Look there, it's the Jedi.

210
00:17:06,537 --> 00:17:08,079
(BUZZING INSISTENTLY)

211
00:17:18,925 --> 00:17:22,719
We'll have to stand and fight.
Or in your case, just stand.

212
00:17:27,308 --> 00:17:28,683
You three, stop him.

213
00:17:50,831 --> 00:17:51,831
(GRUNTING)

214
00:17:53,334 --> 00:17:54,501
SATINE: You there!

215
00:18:01,676 --> 00:18:03,635
-Satine!
-I'm all right.

216
00:18:04,345 --> 00:18:07,264
I'll deal with this.
Get to your ships and evacuate.

217
00:18:25,199 --> 00:18:26,533
Failure.

218
00:18:40,047 --> 00:18:41,214
Governor?

219
00:18:41,257 --> 00:18:46,052
For generations, my ancestors fought
proudly as warriors against the Jedi.

220
00:18:46,178 --> 00:18:50,181
Now that woman tarnishes
the very name Mandalorian.

221
00:18:51,350 --> 00:18:53,018
Defend her, if you will.

222
00:18:56,897 --> 00:19:00,358
This lightsaber was stolen
from your Jedi Temple

223
00:19:00,401 --> 00:19:04,237
by my ancestors
during the fall of the Old Republic.

224
00:19:04,363 --> 00:19:08,116
Since then, many Jedi have died
upon its blade.

225
00:19:08,242 --> 00:19:10,410
Prepare yourself to join them.

226
00:19:11,078 --> 00:19:12,245
(VIZSLA EXCLAIMS CHALLENGINGLY)

227
00:19:59,627 --> 00:20:01,461
Warriors, finish him!

228
00:20:12,807 --> 00:20:14,015
Satine?

229
00:20:25,277 --> 00:20:29,322
-Should we go after him, sir?
-No, there's no time.

230
00:20:29,365 --> 00:20:33,034
Don't worry, we'll catch up
with the Duchess soon enough.

231
00:20:35,538 --> 00:20:37,747
I suppose we're even now.

232
00:20:37,832 --> 00:20:42,293
-Oh? How so?
-I saved your life, you saved mine.

233
00:20:42,336 --> 00:20:46,381
Yes, well, mine was the more daring
of the two rescues.

234
00:20:55,516 --> 00:20:56,808
But if Pre Vizsla fled,

235
00:20:56,851 --> 00:21:01,521
we have no way of learning
how widespread Death Watch really is.

236
00:21:01,564 --> 00:21:04,649
It's obvious the Separatists
are supporting the Death Watch.

237
00:21:05,192 --> 00:21:10,405
I disagree. I told you
I wanted to stay out of this conflict.

238
00:21:10,865 --> 00:21:16,870
Given the current situation,
I'm afraid that may no longer be possible.

239
00:21:17,705 --> 00:21:23,543
I thought you of all people would
understand my position on this matter.

240
00:21:23,669 --> 00:21:26,546
I will never be a part of this war.

241
00:21:34,180 --> 00:21:35,889
Reporting for escort duty, General.

242
00:21:36,098 --> 00:21:39,225
Oh. Anakin, am I glad to see you.

243
00:21:39,727 --> 00:21:41,853
(CHUCKLES) You sound tired.

244
00:21:41,896 --> 00:21:45,565
The peaceful ways of the locals
wore me out a bit.

245
