NARRATOR: A diplomatic mission.

2
00:00:20,937 --> 00:00:25,024
As dissent threatens to tear apart
the peaceful Mandalore system,

3
00:00:25,108 --> 00:00:30,070
Duchess Satine struggles to protect
her people against the escalating violence.

4
00:00:30,655 --> 00:00:35,409
Betrayed by two of her trusted allies,
Satine now travels to Coruscant.

5
00:00:35,493 --> 00:00:37,286
There, she hopes to convince the Senate

6
00:00:37,370 --> 00:00:39,997
that a destructive splinter group,
Death Watch,

7
00:00:40,081 --> 00:00:43,625
does not represent
the entire Mandalorian government.

8
00:00:52,093 --> 00:00:55,095
With your Death Watch army in place,

9
00:00:55,180 --> 00:00:59,892
now all we need do is to sit and wait.

10
00:00:59,976 --> 00:01:03,270
But for how long?
My men are anxious to fight.

11
00:01:03,354 --> 00:01:06,440
Considering the plot
we've just set in motion,

12
00:01:06,608 --> 00:01:11,028
I assure you the Republic will oblige you
the fight you're looking for.

13
00:01:11,112 --> 00:01:14,907
First, send a Death Watch assassin
to Coruscant.

14
00:01:14,991 --> 00:01:17,868
The Duchess of Mandalore must die.

15
00:02:07,210 --> 00:02:08,544
Prime Minister.

16
00:02:08,628 --> 00:02:13,882
-You found the Death Watch armies, then?
-Yes, sir. They are preparing for battle.

17
00:02:13,967 --> 00:02:15,050
But if they attack,

18
00:02:15,176 --> 00:02:19,138
it would strengthen the people's resolve
not to join the Death Watch movement.

19
00:02:19,222 --> 00:02:21,890
The Death Watch will never be
strong enough to take over Mandalore

20
00:02:22,016 --> 00:02:23,559
without the will of the people.

21
00:02:23,685 --> 00:02:26,645
Not if the Republic
has a military presence here.

22
00:02:26,729 --> 00:02:30,482
Their occupation will turn the Death Watch
from terrorists to liberators

23
00:02:30,567 --> 00:02:32,192
in the eyes of the people.

24
00:02:32,235 --> 00:02:35,821
But how can we stop the Republic
from coming here?

25
00:02:35,905 --> 00:02:40,159
Our fate now lies in the hands
of Duchess Satine.

26
00:02:45,039 --> 00:02:51,336
It grieves me to say it, but Death Watch
is now a significant, deadly threat.

27
00:02:52,005 --> 00:02:56,175
Mandalore is making great strides to find
the leaders of this terrorist movement.

28
00:02:56,259 --> 00:02:59,428
They are not powerful enough
to destabilize our government.

29
00:02:59,512 --> 00:03:01,889
We will resolve this without conflict.

30
00:03:01,931 --> 00:03:07,394
If the Republic gets involved in our affairs
it will only lead to further violence.

31
00:03:07,437 --> 00:03:10,564
Thus I shall reassert our position
of neutrality.

32
00:03:10,607 --> 00:03:15,068
-Talk of an idealist.
-No, those are the words of a pacifist

33
00:03:15,111 --> 00:03:18,614
and a people
who have chosen non-violent action.

34
00:03:18,740 --> 00:03:20,449
That may be so, Duchess.

35
00:03:20,533 --> 00:03:24,786
However, this message was delivered
to my staff just this morning.

36
00:03:25,955 --> 00:03:29,082
I think you shall find it most illuminating.

37
00:03:30,710 --> 00:03:35,797
The actions by our government
have taken us into a period of civil war.

38
00:03:35,882 --> 00:03:38,550
To acknowledge it
would be to invite panic in the streets.

39
00:03:38,635 --> 00:03:41,220
-Duchess, do you know this man?
-And so we hid the truth from our people.

40
00:03:41,304 --> 00:03:45,057
Yes. Deputy Minister Jerec.
He's a dear friend.

41
00:03:45,141 --> 00:03:49,144
It is more than mere possibility,
more than eventuality.

42
00:03:49,729 --> 00:03:51,813
-It is here.
-Stop!

43
00:03:51,940 --> 00:03:54,816
Deputy Minister Jerec
is an honorable man.

44
00:03:54,901 --> 00:03:57,402
He would never commit such lies
to the record.

45
00:03:57,487 --> 00:04:01,323
The Mandalorian government
holds no secrets from its people.

46
00:04:01,407 --> 00:04:03,408
If only that were true.

47
00:04:04,661 --> 00:04:08,080
Death Watch is far stronger
than we once thought.

48
00:04:08,164 --> 00:04:13,168
lf we are to combat them effectively,
we must have Republic assistance.

49
00:04:13,836 --> 00:04:17,798
Instead, this government acts out of pride
and rejects the help of the Jedi.

50
00:04:17,840 --> 00:04:19,424
It's not true. It's not true!

51
00:04:19,509 --> 00:04:22,970
The Duchess Satine
will ultimately cause our defeat.

52
00:04:23,012 --> 00:04:28,267
Make no mistake, Republic intervention
is absolutely necessary.

53
00:04:29,852 --> 00:04:34,856
This isn't right. Something here isn't right!
I wish to speak to Jerec immediately.

54
00:04:35,817 --> 00:04:39,194
Sadly, Deputy Minister Jerec
perished this morning

55
00:04:39,320 --> 00:04:42,489
in a Death Watch bombing on Kalevala.

56
00:04:42,532 --> 00:04:46,201
Let us ensure
that his death was not in vain.

57
00:04:46,286 --> 00:04:50,205
Let us commit our military might
to defending the Mandalorian people.

58
00:04:50,290 --> 00:04:53,542
Defending? You mean to occupy our home.

59
00:04:53,668 --> 00:04:57,379
You would trample our right
to self-determination.

60
00:04:57,463 --> 00:04:59,464
We mean to save your people.

61
00:04:59,549 --> 00:05:02,050
You will turn our planet
into a military target

62
00:05:02,176 --> 00:05:04,136
which will bring the war to us.

63
00:05:04,220 --> 00:05:07,014
Mandalore must remain a neutral system.

64
00:05:08,182 --> 00:05:10,851
The vote shall commence
in the next session.

65
00:05:12,895 --> 00:05:14,396
Duchess!

66
00:05:15,231 --> 00:05:16,898
Satine, wait.

67
00:05:19,902 --> 00:05:22,821
I just heard what happened in the Senate.

68
00:05:24,532 --> 00:05:28,201
You're sweet to be concerned.
But I promise I'll be all right.

69
00:05:28,244 --> 00:05:31,204
I am concerned. We're friends, are we not?

70
00:05:32,165 --> 00:05:35,250
Yes, friends and nothing more.

71
00:05:35,293 --> 00:05:37,210
Satine, as your friend,

72
00:05:37,253 --> 00:05:40,756
I don't think you should make
any decisions in this state of mind.

73
00:05:40,798 --> 00:05:45,260
This state of mind? And what
state of mind would that be, precisely?

74
00:05:45,928 --> 00:05:47,763
What I'm saying is...

75
00:05:47,805 --> 00:05:49,931
Any person would be hysterical
by now, but...

76
00:05:49,974 --> 00:05:53,643
Hysterical?
The Republic is attempting to force its will

77
00:05:53,770 --> 00:05:56,271
-upon innocent people.
-I only meant...

78
00:05:56,397 --> 00:05:58,940
Frankly, I'm surprised
you're not hysterical.

79
00:05:59,484 --> 00:06:03,445
Perhaps if more citizens got hysterical,
they'd be more inclined to speak up

80
00:06:03,571 --> 00:06:06,073
when the Republic tramples
on their rights.

81
00:06:06,115 --> 00:06:07,824
Rushing in like this, it's...

82
00:06:08,576 --> 00:06:09,951
It's foolhardy.

83
00:06:09,994 --> 00:06:14,122
Ironic words from a man who spends
his days running hither and yon,

84
00:06:14,248 --> 00:06:18,335
wielding his lightsaber with deadly force
as if on a crusade.

85
00:06:18,461 --> 00:06:22,422
Why should I listen to someone
who so frequently relies on violence?

86
00:06:22,465 --> 00:06:25,634
In my opinion,
you're the one who's foolhardy.

96
00:07:32,994 --> 00:07:35,871
The controls on my speeder
were compromised.

97

Sadly, my dear, there is no proof
anyone tampered with anything.

98
00:07:40,334 --> 00:07:43,295
I'm afraid it might have been
just an accident.

99
00:07:43,379 --> 00:07:44,504
An accident?

100
00:07:44,589 --> 00:07:48,091
And it just happened to coincide
with me defending my home world?

101
00:07:48,176 --> 00:07:51,553
-I agree with Satine.
-Well! Finally.

102
00:07:51,637 --> 00:07:53,847
It proves what I've been saying all along.

103
00:07:53,931 --> 00:07:58,393
Death Watch is out of control.
The Republic must step in and help.

No. Wait, I didn't...

so we will.

a reasoned and thoughtful decision.

00:13:27,723 --> 00:13:31,309
the Death Watch
will be considered heroes.

171
00:13:31,393 --> 00:13:32,685
Excellent.

172
00:13:32,728 --> 00:13:37,690
The Republic occupation force is
loading their ships and will arrive on time,

173
00:13:38,067 --> 00:13:41,528
if the Duchess Satine
does not get in the way.

174
00:13:41,570 --> 00:13:45,573
The Duchess Satine
will not be in the way much longer.

175
00:13:45,658 --> 00:13:49,077
One of the Death Watch assassins
is taking care of her.

176
00:13:52,456 --> 00:13:57,627
Uh, excuse me, sir. If you see this woman,
report her to the local authorities.

177
00:13:57,711 --> 00:14:00,004
(REPLYING IN ALIEN LANGUAGE)

178
00:14:00,172 --> 00:14:03,842
Uh... You know, I don't think he
understands us. Let's try someone else.

179
00:14:06,428 --> 00:14:07,762
(SOFTLY) Obi-Wan, come in.

180
00:14:08,764 --> 00:14:10,306
Obi-Wan, are you there?

181
00:14:10,432 --> 00:14:12,642
Satine! Where are you?

182
00:14:12,768 --> 00:14:15,311
Mas Amedda has demanded
you turn yourself in.

183
00:14:15,437 --> 00:14:17,897
I know. Listen to me. Obi-Wan,

184
00:14:18,107 --> 00:14:19,899
I need your help.

185
00:14:38,627 --> 00:14:40,753
Have you seen this woman?

186
00:14:52,349 --> 00:14:53,391
Nice disguise.

187
00:15:03,319 --> 00:15:04,819
Seeing you all right is...

188
00:15:05,321 --> 00:15:06,863
Well, it's a relief.

189
00:15:07,156 --> 00:15:08,990
You should turn yourself in.

190
00:15:09,074 --> 00:15:11,743
We've both sworn a loyalty
to the Republic.

191
00:15:11,827 --> 00:15:14,996
Believe me, neither one of us
is breaking our oath.

192
00:15:15,080 --> 00:15:19,042
And this will prove it.
I need to get it into the proper hands.

193
00:15:19,835 --> 00:15:21,836
(POLICE DROID BEEPING)

194
00:15:22,338 --> 00:15:24,672
But the Republic guards are hunting you,
which means...

195
00:15:24,715 --> 00:15:28,343
Whoever doctored this recording
is likely in the government itself.

196
00:15:28,427 --> 00:15:31,095
If you set foot inside the Senate,
they'll take you.

197
00:15:31,180 --> 00:15:34,849
And the disk will be destroyed
before anyone can see it.

198
00:15:34,892 --> 00:15:37,352
Which is why
you must take the disk to Padmé.

199
00:15:55,621 --> 00:15:57,038
Blast it.

200
00:16:03,295 --> 00:16:05,004
Where will you be while I'm in the Senate?

201
00:16:05,089 --> 00:16:07,048
-What if they find you?
-They won't.

202
00:16:07,132 --> 00:16:09,926
-I'm going to surrender to them.
-What?

203
00:16:10,010 --> 00:16:13,054
You'll need a distraction
to enter the Senate freely.

204
00:16:13,138 --> 00:16:17,225
I can't risk them searching you
just because you and I are associates.

205
00:16:17,309 --> 00:16:22,188
-I'm a Jedi. They wouldn't dare.
-Things are changing, my dear.

206
00:16:26,402 --> 00:16:27,944
(BEEPING)

207
00:16:28,445 --> 00:16:29,445
(CLATTERING)

208
00:17:02,438 --> 00:17:03,563
Obi!

209
00:17:08,819 --> 00:17:10,153
(GRUNTING)

210
00:17:33,218 --> 00:17:37,388
Excuse me.
I believe you were looking for me?

211
00:17:49,735 --> 00:17:54,989
The occupation of Mandalore will usher in
a new level of security for the Republic

212
00:17:55,115 --> 00:17:57,825
and its fight against corruption.

213
00:17:57,951 --> 00:18:01,329
-If there are no objections...
-PADMÉ: Supreme Chancellor.

214
00:18:01,371 --> 00:18:04,457
There has been a development
in the case for Mandalore's neutrality.

215
00:18:04,500 --> 00:18:07,460
The chair recognizes
the senator from Naboo.

216
00:18:07,503 --> 00:18:11,756
I think this should cast a new light
on the so-called evidence we saw earlier.

217
00:18:17,554 --> 00:18:23,142
The actions by our government
have taken us into a period of civil war.

218
00:18:23,185 --> 00:18:27,021
To acknowledge it
would be to invite panic in the streets.

219
00:18:27,106 --> 00:18:30,358
Death Watch is far stronger
than we once thought.

220
00:18:30,442 --> 00:18:34,445
But we have been training for this.
We can stop them.

221
00:18:34,530 --> 00:18:36,697
But if we are to combat them effectively,

222
00:18:36,824 --> 00:18:40,952
we must have the temerity
to stand strong in the name of peace.

223
00:18:41,745 --> 00:18:46,791
And if we are to do so,
we must reject any Republic assistance.

224
00:18:47,751 --> 00:18:51,212
Instead, this government will act.

225
00:18:51,296 --> 00:18:54,590
It acts not out of pride, but for safety.

226
00:18:55,300 --> 00:18:59,387
Intervention by the Republic
will inflame the opposition,

227
00:18:59,471 --> 00:19:03,432
and this is why our government
rejects the help of the Jedi.

228
00:19:03,892 --> 00:19:06,644
We must listen to the Duchess Satine.

229
00:19:07,187 --> 00:19:11,399
lf we do not,
we will ultimately cause our defeat.

230
00:19:11,483 --> 00:19:14,485
-(ALARM SOUNDING)
-MAN: (ON PA) All troops will stand down.

231
00:19:14,570 --> 00:19:17,029
All troops will stand down!

232
00:19:17,614 --> 00:19:19,991
Unacceptable! You promised us

233
00:19:20,075 --> 00:19:24,245
we would reclaim Mandalore
from these weak-willed cowards!

234
00:19:24,329 --> 00:19:26,247
I will order my men to attack.

235
00:19:26,331 --> 00:19:30,293
And if you do,
you'll hold the planet for perhaps a day.

236
00:19:31,295 --> 00:19:34,630
Without the backing of my forces
or your people,

237
00:19:34,756 --> 00:19:37,925
your revolution will be over
before it begins.

238
00:19:38,594 --> 00:19:43,181
A neophyte such as you
wouldn't know these things, but I do.

239
00:19:44,266 --> 00:19:47,435
I have other ways to accomplish our goal.

240
00:19:55,694 --> 00:19:59,614
Thankfully, with the revelation
of this new information,

241
00:19:59,698 --> 00:20:03,117
the occupation of Mandalore
is no longer necessary.

242
00:20:03,869 --> 00:20:07,288
The person to thank is Duchess Satine.
She found the proof.

243
00:20:07,414 --> 00:20:09,332
I require no thanks.

244
00:20:11,627 --> 00:20:14,837
Satine, the Senate held
an emergency session,

245
00:20:14,963 --> 00:20:18,257
and the Republic forces
have been ordered to stand down.

246
00:20:18,300 --> 00:20:23,012
Allow me to offer a most sincere apology
on behalf of the entire Republic.

247
00:20:23,639 --> 00:20:28,476
You are a most loyal servant,
and we are all grateful.

248
00:20:29,019 --> 00:20:30,978
Yes. Grateful.

249
00:20:32,856 --> 00:20:35,816
Chancellor, if you and Mas Amedda
would join me for a moment,

250
00:20:35,943 --> 00:20:39,654
we have some logistics to discuss
in order to ratify the Senate's decision.

251
00:20:41,114 --> 00:20:43,991
But for you, this wouldn't have happened.

252
00:20:44,076 --> 00:20:48,663
No, it was your unshakable faith
in your people, and your determination,

253
00:20:48,747 --> 00:20:52,333
-that brought about this result.
-I appreciate that.

254
00:20:53,210 --> 00:20:57,838
But still, who is behind all of this?
Who tampered with that recording?

255
00:20:57,923 --> 00:21:01,259
Who tried to convict me of murder
and throw me in jail?

256
00:21:01,343 --> 00:21:06,514
I'm not sure, but as you said yourself,
things are changing.

257
00:21:07,432 --> 00:21:11,602
And sometimes the line
between friend and foe is blurred.

258
00:21:11,687 --> 00:21:13,479
Now more than ever.
