[Admiral Ackbar] Come on, you hunk of junk.
Hang in there.
Do hurry, Admiral.
According to my tracking computer,
the stolen ship was abandoned
somewhere in this vicinity.
That's not a ship, it's my baby,
and I don't need some fancy computer
to tell me that it's right...
here.
I'm awesome at sensing traps.
Everything else, not so much.
Oh, the awful things that happened here on Coruscant.
Battles, betrayals, the end of the Jedi order.
Thank the maker it is over,
and we can get on with our lives.
[loud rumbling]
Battle droids! Hide me, Emperor Head!
Take it easy, chief.
The battle droids factory on Geonosis
was destroyed years ago.
These old junkers were reprogrammed to be useful.
Perhaps they encountered R2.
Pardon me. Garbage droids.
- Can you help me? - [both] Roger roger.
Have you by any chance seen this chap?
[both] Negative negative.
You're not useful at all.
[all] Sorry sorry.
I'll never find R2.
Oh, my sweet ride is gone.
And seeing those scary things only makes me miss him more.
It was he who destroyed the battle droid factory.
I'll never forget when I first saw Daisy Mae at the dealer.
It all began when the Clone Wars
had been raging for some time.
[both talking at once]
A ship is just a machine.
A droid is a person.
Okay, fine. You tell your story.
Thank you.
The separatist leader, General Grievous,
had somehow acquired the Republic's
top-secret battle plans.
This disc is all you need to crush the Jedi
and win the war.
Take it to the separatist council at once.
Yes, my lord.
[evil laughter]
Victory is ours!
My ship, which was also my house!
Oopsie. After him!
Must steal new ship.
[wheezing] It's days like this that I wish I had more
than half my original lungs.
[wheezing cough]
Welcome aboard, senator.
The galley is well-stocked for your flight to...
Wait. You're not Senator Organa.
What was your first clue?
[C3-PO] Your hideous appearance, since you asked.
[Grievous] I was being sarcastic.
Great is your valor, Commander Skywalker.
But still too impulsive are you.
Patience you must learn,
if to be a great Jedi you one day will be.
[Grievous laughing, C3-PO screaming]
If you'll excuse me.
They seem to have gone out the window.
Oh, notice that, did you?
I've got you where I want you, Grievous.
Ooh, I'm shaking in my boots.
Well, fancy meeting you here.
If you two don't mind,
less yakking, more attacking!
Permission to come aboard.
Not granted.
[horns honking]
[screaming]
We've got to help Anakin.
- After them! - [whistles]
[all] Sorry. Our bad.
[beeping]
You, take the wheel.
Me? I'm a terrible pilot.
But I'm a fast learner.
Uh-oh.
Oh, that hurts.
That's the general idea, general.
Get it?
Getting it and thinking it's funny
are two different things.
- Uh-oh. - Uh-oh. - Uh-oh.
Like I said, I am a terrible pilot.
[laughing] See ya.
Would not want to be ya.
Thank you, Master.
You're nearly a Jedi now.
You can stop calling me Master.
Sorry, Obi.
Uh, let's go back to Master.
We'll never find Grievous.
Those stolen battle plans are gone forever.
Not all is lost, my friend.
We still have a man on the job.
Wonderful. From one horrid place to another.
Come along. I have a job for you.
I can only imagine what degrading task you want me to perform.
- Cocktail weenies? - Yes, thank you.
This isn't so bad. Cheese puffs?
[speaking alien language and farting]
Oh. Spoke too soon.
Pardon me, but haven't we met before?
Probably caught him on a bad day.
Good work, general.
These plans will assure our ultimate victory.
Yes. The winning by us is guaranteed.
I just said that.
I wanted to say it, too.
Anakin, your effort to stop Grievous was brave, but also reckless.
Diving out of a window? You could've been killed.
- Yes, but-- - No.
No buts.
Think before you act, you must,
if wish to be a great Jedi you do.
Enemies of the Republic.
This is coming from R2-D2.
He's on Geonosis.
Today, we win this war.
Get those plans back, you must. Go now.
- But you just said I have to think-- - No time to think.
What I said, forget. Go!
You're the boss.
Oh, heck, what the.
For me, wait.
To Geonosis!
What I'm about to show you
will change the course of history.
Behold, the Republic's secret battle plans.
[singing]
- Huh? - Not them. I hate the Ewoks.
General, what is the meaning of this?
It means, Dooku, that up the jig is.
Party's over, boys.
Oh, I don't think so.
Super Sith team, attack!
Mini burgers. Potato skins.
Mmm.
The droid has the plans.
[evil cackling]
Give them to me.
Give him the plans, R2.
Oh, dear!
[both] Noooooo!
Why are you saying no?
He's got the battle plans in him.
Oh, right. Of course.
[both] Nooooo!
He's setting off a chain reaction.
Oh, yes, he excels at that.
The whole place is going to blow.
R2-D2, you are a hero!
Never do that again!
I was so cross with him that day.
I still am.
I do hope to see him again,
so I can give him another swat on the dome.
[clanging sound]
That is an odd sound for a sheet of paper to make.
This is the ship R2 was taken in.
Daisy Mae! What have they done to you, kiddo?
The space court, of course.
The villain knew we'd follow him,
so he ditched your ship for a shuttle ride elsewhere.
But where, admiral, where?
Leave me out of this.
We're rebonding.
- Sorry. - Hey!
Have you seen my friend?
Mister, I'm only programmed to sell tickets.
You've got to help me.
He's a fellow droid, a hero of the Rebellion.
He has been captured by a mysterious stranger.
Okay, okay, don't get your gears in a twist.
If you friend came through here,
he'd be on the security video.
There he is... oh, no.
That's a fire hydrant.
- Oh, there... a mailbox. - Ahem.
I'm so sorry for my apparent rudeness.
I'm in a dreadful state.
Such a terrible thing to happen to a droid.
And your friend's a hero.
What an awful way to treat someone
who helped defeat the Empire.
Yes, and the irony is
that it was the kidnapping that led to the rise of the Empire,
the fall of the Jedi and the revenge of the Sith in the first place.
Would you like to tell us about it?
I certainly would.
A year had passed,
and General Grievous and the separatists
were desperate to make a bold move
that would end the war.
They decided to kidnap Chancellor Palpatine.
Thanks for coming by.
You're just the witness...
I mean, droid I need.
I am honored to be in the service
of such a noble, upstanding public servant--
Yeah, yeah, yeah. Hang on a sec.
Now!
Just be a moment.
[Grievous laughing and coughing]
Ha! Total surprise kidnapping.
General Grievous!
General Grievous, take your hands off me
- at once! - Oh, sorry.
No, you fool. Kidnap me.
Oh, uh, yes, sorry, boss.
And stop calling me boss!
Poor innocent Chancellor Palpatine.
- You seem troubled. Is something wrong? - No, Padme.
Just the usual rage at Obi Wan and Yoda
for not seeing my awesomeness.
But I have a good feeling about us.
The future is bright for me, you,
and our child-to-be.
[excited beeping]
Thanks, R2.
Have you thought of a name for the baby yet?
[Chancellor] Help! I'm being kidnapped!
Well, the girl name is easy. Leia.
- [brakes screeching] - Over here.
For a boy, I've narrowed it down to--
Kidnapping in progress!
Bad guys got me. Need a little help from the Jedi.
[Padme reciting names]
...Jubnuk, IG88, or Luke.
[horn honking]
The chancellor's been kidnapped.
I have to save him, Padme.
Finally.
Obi Wan, Grievous and Dooku
are holding the chancellor on the command ship.
I know, but why can't we just take
a straight line to get there?
'Cause this way is much cooler.
Drat. Buzz droids.
Don't worry. R2's on it.
Master, what a brilliant plan of yours.
To lure the Jedi to your rescue
so you can reveal yourself as the Sith lord
and have us destroy them.
Uh, yeah, sure, that's my plan.
Unhand the chancellor, Dooku.
Jedi.
Time to give up, Dooku.
Ha. You just walked into a trap.
We have a secret weapon you never suspected...
the power of the Sith.
Get those bad guys, my Jedi heroes.
That wasn't the plan.
Yes, it was. I just didn't tell you. Sorry.
I'll get you.
Yes, Anakin, yes.
Give in to your hate.
Isn't that a bad thing for a Jedi?
Oh, right.
Why would I tell you to do that?
Silly me. But seriously, get him.
You haven't seen the last of me.
You have seen the last of me.
Great work, Anakin.
Now let's hope we survive the crash you've just caused.
[screaming]
Grievous is out there. I'll hunt him.
No, Anakin, I'll go. You're not ready.
You're just jealous of me.
I won't accept this till I hear it from Yoda himself.
Agree with Obi-Wan, I do.
[angry muttering]
Anakin, you're right to be angry at Yoda.
He doesn't see the greatness in you that I do.
Really? You think I'm great?
Oh, yes, and I say this from my heart
with no ulterior motives.
I'm the only friend...
Whoa, gotta go!
Trust me completely.
I think the chancellor is the Sith lord.
Huh. Highly unlikely, but I'll check it out.
I'd love to help you find this General Grievous,
but he's not here.
No, sir.
No big scary robot looking behind that column.
Is there something wrong with your neck?
[exasperated groan] Is there something wrong with your brain?
He's trying to tell you I'm right here.
[laughing] It's one against four, Jedi.
Ow! No problem.
I'm just as good with three.
You are not nice.
You're under arrest, Chancellor.
Or should I say, Darth Sidious?
Well, duh.
- Whoa! - Get ready to say whoa again.
Stand back a little, hmm.
[goofy exclaiming and laughing]
- What's going on? - Anakin, this mean Jedi
is attacking poor old me.
Eat lightning, Windu.
Mutiny, Anakin.
Crackle, crackle.
Oh, so weak.
I don't know what to do.
- You don't? - Stop hurting my friend.
Oh, no. What have I done?
Kinda late to say that now. [screaming]
Congratulations, my friend.
You are no longer Anakin Skywalker,
second-string Jedi.
You are Darth Vader,
the most powerful being in the galaxy.
[needle scratches] Except for me.
You have to obey my every command.
I made a very bad decision.
What was that, Darth Vader?
Darth Vader shall do thy bidding, my master.
[evil laughter]
The Jedi will be no more.
Ha! You're doomed now, Kenobi.
R means real fast, right?
Uh, sure.
[screaming] Not smart.
Cody, Clone troopers, we won!
Oh, wonder where they're going.
[C3-PO] The less said about what happened next, the better,
but it was a terrible day
that saw the end of the Jedi,
the birth of the Empire,
and a fatal battle between a master
and his former apprentice.
Anakin, I loved you as a brother,
but you turned to the dark side,
and destroyed the Republic.
I say the Jedi were destroying the Republic,
and the emperor and I saved it.
You didn't save it. That's a lie.
- Nuh-uh. - Yuh-huh.
What I said is true,
from a certain point of view.
That's the dumbest thing I've ever heard.
Well, as long as it's a fight to the end,
let's make it interesting.
Agreed.
Hey, it's Master Yoda.
Hi.
What did we ever do?
Ended, your reign is, Chancellor.
Or should I call you Emperor?
Or should I call you Darth Sid--?
Yes, yes, we all know that now.
[C3-PO] Anakin's transformation into Darth Vader was complete.
[breathing heavily]
[cheering]
Things never looked worse for us.
But with the birth of Luke and Leia,
we did have a new hope.
If only I had hope that I'd find R2. Wait!
It's R2; I'd know his dome anywhere.
But where did that thing take him?
Run those images back.
Please magnify it.
I can't magnify.
I said magnify.
Mos Eisley. That wretched stinkhole.
I have to save him.
You're in luck.
[Man on P.A.] Terminal shuttle to Mos Eisley,
Mos Ersba and all Mos-es in between
- is now boarding at platform three. - Thank you.
Thank you for the ride, Admiral,
but I must follow R2.
Of course.
I'm just happy to have my ship back.
Come back here with Daisy Mae!
Negative negative.
I can't believe I'm saying this,
but take me to Tatooine as fast as you can.
