Act I • Obi-Wan's Rescue Mission

Postby Ternian » March 30th 2004 4:16 am

After three long years of relentless fighting, the Clone Wars are nearly at an end. The Jedi Council dispatches Obi-Wan Kenobi to bring the deadly leader of the Separatist droid army to justice. Meanwhile, back on Coruscant, Chancellor Palpatine has grown in power. His sweeping political changes transform the war-weary Republic into the mighty Galactic Empire. To his closest ally, Anakin Skywalker, he reveals the true nature of power and the promised secrets of the Force in an attempt to lure him to the dark side.

- STARWARS.COM


The Chancellor of the Republic has been kidnapped during neogitations to end the Clone Wars by the leader of the Confederacy of Independent Systems - Count Dooku and his evil hencmen General Grevious.

Anakin Skywalker and Obi-Wan Kenobi are sent on a mission to rescue the Chancellor from the evil clutches of Dooku. During the space battle, Obi-Wan's astromech is damaged and crash lands in the hanger bay of the Federation Cruiser. Anakin Skywalker quickly goes after him and enters the cruiser bay.

Obi-Wan and Anakin quickly dispatch and hide in the engine room. Obi-Wan leads Anakin into through the heart of the cruiser's engine room which is flooded with fuel - even though he has to chastise Anakin for trying to get too far ahead of himself. Artoo follows and logs into the computer system of the Crusier and finds that Palpatine is being held in the General's Quarters of the Cruiser. Anakin and Obi-Wan climb through some ventilation shafts and come to a elevator foyer.

They take the elevator to the bridge area and are immediately set upon by multitudes of droids, the Jedi make their way towards the General's Quarters. Obi-Wan is immediately set upon by General Grevious as Anakin takes on Dooku. Dooku is killed and Anakin rushes to the aid of Obi-Wan who is battling to stay alive against General Grevious. They push Grevious back and out the window, creating a vacuum within the ship.

Losing control of the ship, the Cruiser begins to head towards a Republic Military Cruiser. The Neimodian pilot panics and begins to turn the ship around. The Cruiser hits the Republic Cruiser, tearing it apart. Anakin and Obi-Wan free the Chancellor and desperately try to return to their ships when the Cruiser beings to turn and roll. The Elevator plummets and Anakin and Palpatine fall into the shaft. Palpatine holds on as Anakin tries to pull him up. The continues to roll and begins to head directly into the heart of Coruscant.

While Obi-Wan tries to protect the Chancellor, Anakin goes to the bridge and tries to gain control of the rolling cruiser and safely crash lands the Cruiser on the surface of Coruscant. Fire Ships are sent to the site and successfully retrieve the Chancellor and the Jedi.

on ep2 i stopped the spoilers when i heard about anakins arm! this time there is no stopping me!
although we already know everything (well we think we do!) its still great to read it all put together! :heavymetal:

Well, this is close but is still wrong. Anakin, Palps and Obi-Wan actually get chased within the ship. I still don't know how they get from the hangar to General's quarters then into the engine room and back into the bridge. And there is no evidence that Anakin ever reaches the bridge or lands the Cruiser on Coruscant.

Open to suggestions here.

Isn't Obi Wan unconscious at some point on the cruiser?

Yeah - and they fall down a ramp. This is AFTER they rescue Palpatine. I am not sure what happens after they rescue Palpatine but they seem to be end up in the heart of the crusier - not the bridge area. At this point - while they are being chased, Anakin comlinks some one (Artoo more than likely).

yup palpy hanging on from below! i remember them shooting it but dont remember seeing palps? he will probably be CG or composited as iirc the set wasnt long enough for both of them to hang from (as hayden was standing on green boxes)
it just gets more exciting by the day! (well for me anyway!) out of 6 friends who grew up maniacly on SW there are now only 2 who really give a sh*t! the rest will watch it but are not bothered it anymore :(

I thought it sounded pretty good, doesn't quite matchup with some of the footage we've seen but I think it's probably pretty close to what we'll see. For some reaason I've been spoiler crazed for this episode after going spoiler free for 1 and 2.

Yeah, the cruiser part doesn't make total sense yet.

I wonder if it is possible that Anakin crash lands an escape craft rather than the cruiser into Coruscant?

I cannot believe that Palpatine isn't going to use his force powers in order to save his endangered live in the cruiser.
Theorie: At some point OB1 is unconscious. Palpatine uses this moment to use his powers to get rid of the dangerous situation at hand. Whatever Palpatine does it seems to me that this cruiser scene is the point where Anakin senses or realizes that Palpi is more than a Nabooishian.

Wouldn't it be silly when the dark lord himself stumbels and bounces across the cruiser floors like Star Trek extras?

Not really, SI. Palpatine may turn the Clones just before Mace's confrontation thus leading to Mace's confrontation.

Do we have good reason to doubt any of the original AICN story that first broke the news of General Grievous?

http://www.aintitcool.com/display.cgi?id=15860

It leaves out Dooku altogether but the rest seems like it could fit.

I like the idea of Anakin hiding in Padme's bedroom, but why would Padme hold a rebellion meeting with Anakin there? I'm sure she trusts him, but wouldn't she schedule it for another time?

SI,

Yep, Fatboy's right. I don't think the story ever came down. I know the link is still up over there.

It's just that few gave it credence at that time because of Grievous.

How time changes everything. :wink:

I thought so. The fact it just stayed on their site and not so much as a whimper from LFL, and the character "Grevious" were enough for me to denounce it immediately.

It is kind of strange that Lucas didn’t swarm down right away.

Maybe he thought no one would believe anything about Grievous. Maybe the best way to deal with it was to say nothing at all. Who knows?

Whatever the plan was, it did work...for awhile.

Anyway, here is that infamous report for anyone who hasn’t seen it or wants to take a trip back through time.

Okey day...here is the breakdown of that outline. It doesn't fit since it leaves out DOOKU completely. Also, Anakin can't rescue Palpatine so late in the piece and we know the trio end up crossing some precarious piping that breaks and Anakin is carrying both around for a while.

Anyway...

Meh, considering that Han, Leia and Chewie can go out in a giant space slug's gut wearing nothing but breath masks, I'm sure the General will be ok. This is probably one of those "i'll leave to the EU to explain it" details. (mini forcefields over the eyes or something equally stupid).

It just occurred to me that if Grevious is breaking through the glass into space, his eyeballs would probably explode.

So, does this mean that there are other Jedis involved after all?
This whole cut sounds as promising as the stuff from the AotC script. Let's hope Lucas is able to pull this off.

Thanks for this exciting read, Ternian.

Tho I gotta confess:

He is quickly surrounded by hundreds of BATTLE DROIDS. ANAKIN, still in his ship, flies through the hanger and crashes into the DROIDS saving OBI-WAN.


This I do not like.

We now know from the new webdoc that both Anakin and Obi-Wan take on Dooku. So I assume Grievous joins the fray at some point and separates Obi-Wan from the duel leaving Anakin to fight Dooku alone and subsequently kill him?
