everything to me.
    O BI- W AN: You are strong and wise, Anakin, and I am very proud of you. I have trained you since you were a small boy. I have taught you everything I know. And you have become a far greater Jedi than I could ever hope to be, and you have saved my life more times than I can remember. But be patient, Anakin. It won’t be long before the Council makes you a Jedi Master.
    OBI-WAN starts down the ramp, then turns back.
    O BI- W AN:
(continuing
) Don’t worry. I have enough clones with me to take three systems the size of Utapau. I think I’ll be able to handle the situation . . . even without your help.
    A NAKIN: Well, there’s always a first time.
    OBI-WAN laughs.
    They talk for a few more minutes before ANAKIN watches OBI-WAN depart.
    A NAKIN: Obi-Wan, may the Force be with you.
    O BI- W AN: Good-bye, old friend. May the Force be with you.
    OBI-WAN heads down a ramp toward the waiting Republic cruiser.

    97 EXT. CORUSCANT—CLONE LANDING PLATFORM—DAY
    The Republic cruiser lifts off and heads for space.
----
    98 (77) INT. REPUBLIC BATTLE CRUISER—HANGAR—SPACE
    CLONE TROOPERS stand at attention in rows on the floor of the hangar deck, waiting to board landing craft. OBI-WAN stands next to his BLUE JEDI FIGHTER, talking to SEVERAL CLONE COMMANDERS with their helmets off. A hologram of the planet Utapau is projected by R4-G9 into the middle of the hangar.
    C LONE C OMMANDER C ODY: Fortunately, most of the cities are concentrated on this small continent here . . . on the far side.
    O BI- W AN: I’ll keep them distracted until you get there. Just don’t take too long.
    C LONE C OMMANDER C ODY: Come on, boss, when have I ever let you down?
    They laugh.
    O BI- W AN:
(laughing
) Cato Nemoidia . . . for starters.
    OBI-WAN climbs into his Jedi Fighter.
    C LONE C OMMANDER C ODY: That was Anakin who was late, I believe.
    O BI- W AN: Very well, the burden is on me not to destroy all the droids before you get there.
    C LONE C OMMANDER C ODY: I’m counting on you.
----
    99 EXT. JEDI FIGHTER—SPACE
    OBI-WAN blasts the BLUE JEDI FIGHTER out of the Republic Battle Cruiser and into the hyperspace ring. He heads for the planet Utapau.
----
    100 (73) EXT. CORUSCANT—CITYSCAPE—CHANCELLOR’S TRANSPORT—DAY
    The Chancellor’s Transport races through the city and heads for the Senate Office Building landing platform. Waiting on the landing platform is a LONE JEDI. The Transport lands, and CHANCELLOR PALPATINE emerges with FOUR ROYAL GUARDS and MAS AMEDDA.
    The FOUR ROYAL GUARDS move off in another direction as PALPATINE greets ANAKIN, who has been waiting for him.
    P ALPATINE: Well, Anakin, did you see your friend off?
    A NAKIN: He will soon have Grievous’s head.
    P ALPATINE: We can only hope the Council didn’t make a mistake.
    A NAKIN: The Council was very sure in its decision.
    They exit the landing platform.
----
    101 (74) INT. CORUSCANT—SENATE OFFICE BUILDING—MAIN HALLWAY—DAY
    They enter the main hallway of the Senate Office Building. They pass SEVERAL SENATORS, including REPRESENTATIVE JAR JAR BINKS from Naboo.
    J AR J AR: Helloo Annie. Gooden to see yousa . . .
    The Gungan waves to Anakin.
    A NAKIN: Hi, Jar Jar.
    J AR J AR: Oopsin da Chancellor!! So sorry, Your Highness, sir.
    Anakin turns back to the Chancellor.
    P ALPATINE: There are rumors in the Senate about Master Kenobi. Many believe he is not fit for this assignment.
    A NAKIN: Not fit? Why would anyone think that?
    P ALPATINE: They say his mind has become fogged by the influence of a certain female Senator.
    A NAKIN: That’s ridiculous. Who?!?
    P ALPATINE:
(slyly
) No one knows who she is . . . only that she is a Senator.
    A NAKIN: That’s impossible. I would know.
    P ALPATINE: Sometimes the closest are the ones who cannot see.
    ANAKIN becomes worried.
    P ALPATINE:
(continuing
) Idle Senate gossip is rarely true and never accurate. I’m sure your Master will do fine.
