Which is exactly why Sidious told Dooku to get captured and than betrayed him. He knew Dooku could kill Anikin if he didn't fuck around, so he set the plan up for Dooku to be captured by the "evil Jedi" who'd later be freed by the Empire as a loyal hand of the Emperor. But instead, he taunted Aniken, didn't kill him as planned and instead of getting captured he was betrayed by Palpatine so that he could seperate Annie from the Council more. Dooku was probably the only Duelist in the Galaxy who could match Yoda and Sidious in combat. His old age was the only downside, in his prime he was outright better than Yoda with a saber. In was in one of the books that Darth Plagious told Sidious the grand plan would fail if Dooku became Jedi Grandmaster as not only was he at that time better than Sidious and probably Plagious both, but his thoughts about how to be a Jedi were not as dogmatic. Thankfully for them both, Yoda could live for a long fucking time and Dooku didn't age well.

They were going to paint Dooku as a noble man trying to fight for equality and depict all the heinous war crimes of the CIS onto Grievous. Sidious betrayed this plan, as Dooku wasn't expecting for Obi-Wan or Anakin to be so powerful or skilled. Added on that Palpatine in the novels and the comic version gave Anakin advice on how to use the dark side during the duel to increase his power.

​@@u.v.s.5583: *_F_* you! He already did that in the official release!!

Obi-wan sounds so done with the Separatist’s shit. He almost sounds disappointed that they didn’t kill the Chancellor lmao.

The idea that Palpatine wrote the script, and everyone else is unknowingly driving him to drinking by going lightyears off it, is golden.

“I quote you verbatim ‘I am a slow learner’” had me ROLLING! Earned a subscriber

I love how all these scripts are like an improve skit from people who loosely understands what the characters they're playing are while the chancellor is the only one who actually read the script front and back, memorized everything about his character, and has to go along woth the shenanigans while trying to keep the rest on track. Or rather, the chancellor is the dm for a bunch of beginner dnd players.

1:38 “that’s ridiculous. We’re too frugal to put hyperdrives on our starfighters”

3:00 " Stands for Before Battle of Yavin, sir. " " What the fuck is Yavin? "

Dooku and Anakin just casually having a conversation about Padme and his children in the middle is hilarious! Also, Palps' "What in the galaxy does BBY stand for?" was brilliant!

I was offended that yoda wasn't on ketamine but cycling drugs to keep a low tolerance is an acceptable reason

Just like to imagine Count as that one old man who is avoiding taxes just to continue paying for his world chess membership

Palpatine softly interjecting and always getting interrupted is my favourite part of these

"It's ridiculous, if it was that simple, everyone would be doing it" omfg... I love this lmfao The implication that the answer to the "if it was that easy, everyone would be doing it" question posed by the fans is that everyone in-universe just assumed the same is hilarious

1:51 was a nice touch lol

It's that easy

To be fair to anakin, it’s equally likely that killing Palpatine (a beloved leader) would be a BAD idea. At this point the republic citizens are getting REAL tired of the war, killing Palpy might be the one thing to reinvigorate their morale.

​@@mateuszjokiel2813It depends on the system of governance really. More personalistic ones, like Hitler Nazi Germany, may suffer from a decapitation strike because Hitler intentionally fostered rivalries between his subordinates and the line of succession was never really that clear. Meanwhile, the Republic is still technically a democracy, as well as having a very clear line of succession in place. The Chancellor just has a lot of emergency powers. If he is killed, Vice Chancellor Amedda takes his place, and then the Senate can elect a new one. So, killing Palpatine if he wasn’t also Sidius, wouldn’t stop the war yes.

Something I wish people would stop doing in the comments sections of videos like this!! I literally read someone implying Anakin asking Dooku: "If I subtract 2 hands from you, you have how many left?" *_ANAKIN LITERALLY DID THAT IN THE OFFICIAL REVENGE OF THE SITH MOVIE!!!_*

“They’re going to bury what’s left of the chancellor in a soup can!” -Obi-wan, probably.

I love it how Palpatines just trying to stay in the script while Anakin, Obi-Wan and Dooku are just chatting like besties😂

The Star War's I'd watch. Yoda doing entire spices and death sticks along with other galaxy type drug's. Anakin saying Lightning Fingies and being both shaggy intellectual and actually smart. And Obi Wan making up ridiculous notions and plans so far fetch yet kind of plausible.

In fairness, the last time the three of them fought in season 6, Anakin and Obi-Wan had to separate so that Anakin could try and chase Dooku (though originally they were going to fight one last time in the Dark Disciple arc, and they would’ve made a bigger deal about Anakin and Obi-Wan separating during that fight).

Dude, Palpatines last bit killed me. “What in the galaxy does BBY stand for.”

Can we appreciate that Count Dooku is acting like Obi-Wan and Anakin's old professor that put special attention into them? When Anakin tried the "I have an honest face" line, he didn't just call him out on how silly that claim was. He went full Socratic Method on him. Still teaching his old students to his dying day.

Words. The truly elegant weapon of a more civilized time.

This feels straight out of a Monty Python sketch. And I love it.

The conversation between Count Dooku and Anakin was wonderful. I can just imagine Obi-Wan, Anakin, and Dooku sitting at a table as Dooku offers them some wine as they negotiate and chat like family. All the while, Palpatine will still be locked in that chair.

Obi-Wan, the negotiater Ah yes, the clones can sing songs about how much he loved to "negotiate" on the battlefield

"My powers have increased one hundred twenty-eightfold since we met during the Battle of Geonosis, Count. Doubling between all eight of our duels."

I love how Palpatine is constantly trying to stick to the script and no one pays any attention to him.

"With all due respect, Chancellor, I'm known as 'The Negotiator', not 'The Leaps-into-violence-at-the-smallest-provocation-ator'"

The way Dooku was talking to Anakin about Padme seems like something that could have happened in an alternate timeline

I like that Dooku just arrives and makes friendly conversation. Much like Christopher Lee himself would, he just greets them with dignity and asks how they’re doing.

0:44 damn, that's actually pretty smart... I guess that's why he's the Master. 😅
