1. Corruption, discovered at
the core of the Banking Clan.
Copy !req
2. Reunited, Rush Clovis
and Senator Amidala
Copy !req
3. discover the full extent
of the deception.
Copy !req
4. Anakin Skywalker is sent to the rescue.
Copy !req
5. He refuses to trust Clovis and
asks Padmé not to work with him.
Copy !req
6. Determined to save the banks,
she refuses her husband's request,
Copy !req
7. throwing their relationship into turmoil.
Copy !req
8. Voted for by both
the Separatists and the Republic,
Copy !req
9. Rush Clovis is elected new leader
of the Galactic Banking Clan.
Copy !req
10. Now, all attention is focused on Scipio,
Copy !req
11. as the important
transfer of power begins.
Copy !req
12. Welcome back to Scipio, Rush Clovis.
Copy !req
13. Our Separatist government has
great hopes for you.
Copy !req
14. Thank you, Senator.
Copy !req
15. Only you and Senator Amidala
will be allowed
Copy !req
16. to monitor the exchange proceedings.
Copy !req
17. No forces on either side
will be allowed into the neutral zone.
Copy !req
18. Senator Amidala, we'll be
right here if you should need us.
Copy !req
19. Thank you, Commander.
Copy !req
20. It is with great disappointment
that I implement the following verdict.
Copy !req
21. By decree of the Muun people,
Copy !req
22. the five representatives
standing before me
Copy !req
23. are found guilty of embezzlement.
Copy !req
24. They shall be imprisoned forthwith,
Copy !req
25. and control of the banks shall
transfer immediately to Rush Clovis,
Copy !req
26. under the guidance of
the Muun government.
Copy !req
27. We are grateful to you, Clovis,
Copy !req
28. for everything you have
done for the Muun people.
Copy !req
29. To have lost the banks
would have been a historic disaster.
Copy !req
30. I would like you to know I have
no interest in controlling the banks.
Copy !req
31. I'm simply here to reestablish order.
Copy !req
32. Do you think our friend
is up to the task?
Copy !req
33. There are few men
I have met in my career
Copy !req
34. who are more dedicated to a cause
than Clovis.
Copy !req
35. Once he decides what he is fighting for,
little will stop him from achieving it.
Copy !req
36. Let us hope you are right,
for all our sakes.
Copy !req
37. Ah, Clovis, how are you liking
your new office?
Copy !req
38. I must say, you look very comfortable
behind that desk.
Copy !req
39. Count Dooku,
what do I owe the pleasure?
Copy !req
40. Come, come, my boy.
Copy !req
41. You don't think
I'd let such an important day pass
Copy !req
42. without wishing you the best of luck?
Copy !req
43. Thank you.
But luck has nothing to do with it.
Copy !req
44. The transfer has occurred
without a hitch.
Copy !req
45. Well, of course it has.
Copy !req
46. The Separatists are
fully behind your appointment.
Copy !req
47. After all, aren't we
the ones who put you there?
Copy !req
48. For your support, I am grateful.
Copy !req
49. But I now must lead
without allegiance towards either side.
Copy !req
50. Is that so?
Copy !req
51. Quite the idealist you have become
in so short a time.
Copy !req
52. What do you want, Dooku?
Copy !req
53. To collect on my investment.
Copy !req
54. How do you think
the Republic would like to know
Copy !req
55. that it was I who supplied Rush Clovis
Copy !req
56. with all the information he needed
to topple the leaders of the bank?
Copy !req
57. I will tell them myself.
Copy !req
58. Oh, but you can't.
Copy !req
59. I put you in power, you belong to me.
Copy !req
60. And if you want to stay in control,
you will do as I say.
Copy !req
61. The banks will remain unbiased.
Copy !req
62. Then I'm afraid the Separatists will be
unable to pay the interest on our loans.
Copy !req
63. But the banks will collapse and the...
Copy !req
64. Not if you raise interest rates
on the Republic.
Copy !req
65. What?
Copy !req
66. You know I can't do that.
Copy !req
67. Oh, but you can, and you will.
Copy !req
68. Or everything that you've fought
so hard for will be destroyed.
Copy !req
69. By the new order of the Traxus Division,
Copy !req
70. and in an attempt
to stabilize the banks,
Copy !req
71. it is essential that interest rates on
loans to the Republic
Copy !req
72. be raised immediately.
Copy !req
73. What?
Copy !req
74. But you can't do that!
Copy !req
75. Clovis!
Copy !req
76. Clovis?
Copy !req
77. What are you doing?
Copy !req
78. This is an outrage!
Copy !req
79. We warned you this would happen!
Copy !req
80. And what of the Separatists?
Copy !req
81. From the little information Senator
Amidala has been able to establish,
Copy !req
82. there will be no raise
on their current loan.
Copy !req
83. I knew from the beginning
that Clovis would do this.
Copy !req
84. We knew that
Clovis would do this.
Copy !req
85. Correct you might have been
about Clovis.
Copy !req
86. It's incredibly foolish for him
to make a move like this so early.
Copy !req
87. He will turn the whole Republic
against him.
Copy !req
88. Not clear to us are his objectives.
Want this, he might.
Copy !req
89. Something's wrong.
This doesn't make sense.
Copy !req
90. I would like to call for restraint
Copy !req
91. and allow us time
to analyze the situation.
Copy !req
92. You may begin your attack.
Copy !req
93. It is time to make Rush Clovis
look like a powerful Separatist.
Copy !req
94. Right away, sir.
Copy !req
95. It looks like an invasion fleet, sir.
Copy !req
96. We're caught out here in the open.
Copy !req
97. Get the men off this landing pad
and beyond the city gates.
Copy !req
98. Senator Amidala,
come in, please.
Copy !req
99. What is it, Commander Thorn?
Copy !req
100. We're under attack
by the Separatist garrison.
Copy !req
101. Looks to be a full invasion.
Copy !req
102. Invasion?
Copy !req
103. We can't get to you.
Copy !req
104. I suggest you get to a ship
as soon as you can.
Copy !req
105. Ah! Let's move! Hurry!
Copy !req
106. For the Republic!
Copy !req
107. Our garrison has been
attacked by the Separatists.
Copy !req
108. And it appears
they are staging an invasion of Scipio.
Copy !req
109. An invasion?
Copy !req
110. What do they hope to achieve?
Copy !req
111. With this news, the Senate will
vote immediately to attack Scipio.
Copy !req
112. It appears war has
already come to Scipio.
Copy !req
113. I want you off that planet immediately.
Copy !req
114. I can't.
Copy !req
115. Surely you can get to a ship.
Copy !req
116. General Skywalker,
I'm afraid I'm trapped.
Copy !req
117. Let me go!
Copy !req
118. Invoke an emergency meeting
of the Senate.
Copy !req
119. There is no time to lose.
Copy !req
120. I feel it is only right that you should
handle this matter, my boy.
Copy !req
121. A lot will be entrusted to you.
Copy !req
122. Don't touch me.
Copy !req
123. What have you done to her?
Copy !req
124. Clovis, what is going on?
Copy !req
125. I didn't want this, Padmé.
Copy !req
126. Why don't you tell her
what you did want and how you got it.
Copy !req
127. Dooku?
Copy !req
128. Padmé, this is not what it seems.
Copy !req
129. Hasn't she joined our cause?
Copy !req
130. Clovis here told me how instrumental
you were in getting him to power.
Copy !req
131. If I had known...
Copy !req
132. Either you're with us,
or you're against us.
Copy !req
133. Arrest her.
Copy !req
134. We can't do this, Dooku.
Copy !req
135. The Separatist Senate
will never approve.
Copy !req
136. Hey.
Copy !req
137. No, no!
Copy !req
138. No!
Copy !req
139. Are you insane?
This was not part of the deal.
Copy !req
140. What deal?
Copy !req
141. What have you done here, Clovis?
Copy !req
142. He's given us the banks.
Copy !req
143. Gone are our debts,
and gone is any credit for the Republic.
Copy !req
144. All of your idealism was just a front.
Copy !req
145. There was nothing I could do.
Copy !req
146. Everyone has their price, my dear.
Copy !req
147. It is with grave news I come before you.
Copy !req
148. Count Dooku and
his Separatist betrayers
Copy !req
149. have manipulated us, my friends.
Copy !req
150. The war must go to Scipio.
Copy !req
151. Clovis has been their puppet of deceit,
Copy !req
152. as the Separatists are
currently invading Scipio.
Copy !req
153. We must stop them
and secure the planet.
Copy !req
154. We have handed the entire
economic system over to Count Dooku.
Copy !req
155. We are doomed! Invade!
Copy !req
156. As Supreme Chancellor,
Copy !req
157. I must abide
by the consensus of the Senate.
Copy !req
158. We shall commence
a mercy mission to Scipio
Copy !req
159. to be led by General Anakin Skywalker.
Copy !req
160. The banks will be secured at all costs.
And the Republic will not crumble.
Copy !req
161. We'll obtain victory!
Copy !req
162. Yeah, war on Scipio!
Copy !req
163. Great emotions you will find on Scipio,
will you not?
Copy !req
164. I am worried for Senator Amidala.
I'm afraid we may be too late.
Copy !req
165. Correct you were about Clovis.
But let go of your selfishness you must
Copy !req
166. if you are to see clearly.
Copy !req
167. Not all is as it seems.
Copy !req
168. I understand, Master.
Copy !req
169. Lord Tyranus, the Republic fleet
will be arriving shortly.
Copy !req
170. Very good, my Lord.
Copy !req
171. Clovis has blindly played his part,
Copy !req
172. it now appears he coordinated
the entire Separatist takeover.
Copy !req
173. And because of this treachery,
the banks will be firmly placed
Copy !req
174. under the control of
the Supreme Chancellor.
Copy !req
175. Why are you doing this?
Copy !req
176. You wouldn't understand.
Copy !req
177. I had to strike a deal with Dooku.
But don't worry, I am the one in control.
Copy !req
178. As soon as things have settled down,
I can get rid of him.
Copy !req
179. And I'll control it all again.
Copy !req
180. Listen to yourself.
Copy !req
181. The Republic is sending its armada
to take back the banks.
Copy !req
182. You've brought war
right where there cannot be war.
Copy !req
183. Your actions have destroyed the banks
once and for all.
Copy !req
184. Rex, have you gotten a fix
on Senator Amidala's position?
Copy !req
185. We'll have a better lock
once we get near the city.
Copy !req
186. But initial scans suggest
she's still alive, sir.
Copy !req
187. Good.
Copy !req
188. Hawk, we're gonna need air support
once we're on the ground.
Copy !req
189. You'll have it, General.
Me and the boys are ready to fly.
Copy !req
190. My Lord, we have
fully engaged Republic forces.
Copy !req
191. But we are suffering heavy losses.
Copy !req
192. We have accomplished
what we came here for.
Copy !req
193. It is time to withdraw.
Copy !req
194. But, sir, our forces are
still engaged in battle on the planet.
Copy !req
195. Leave them.
Copy !req
196. As you wish, Count Dooku.
Copy !req
197. Sir, a Republic attack fleet
has just entered orbit,
Copy !req
198. and is approaching the city.
Copy !req
199. Get me Count Dooku.
Copy !req
200. It appears Count Dooku has
left the planet's surface.
Copy !req
201. What?
Copy !req
202. And the Separatist forces
are in full retreat.
Copy !req
203. We are alone.
Copy !req
204. Rex, hold the droid forces here.
Copy !req
205. - I'm gonna push on and get Padmé.
- Copy that.
Copy !req
206. Such plans I had.
Copy !req
207. You know, I've spent
so much of my life misunderstood.
Copy !req
208. What will they say about me now?
Copy !req
209. What will I have left behind?
Copy !req
210. Clovis, you have to turn yourself in.
Copy !req
211. It's over, Clovis.
Copy !req
212. Stay away from me.
Copy !req
213. I didn't do anything wrong.
You have to believe me.
Copy !req
214. You don't wanna do this.
Copy !req
215. You don't understand.
You've all been deceived.
Copy !req
216. Yeah, by you.
Copy !req
217. No! By Dooku.
Copy !req
218. I'm not the villain here.
Tell him, Padmé.
Copy !req
219. Let me go, Clovis.
Copy !req
220. No!
Copy !req
221. I can't hold both of you.
Copy !req
222. Let me go.
Copy !req
223. No, Anakin, don't!
Copy !req
224. Try and climb.
Copy !req
225. I am.
Copy !req
226. I'm losing you.
Copy !req
227. I'm sorry, Padmé.
Copy !req
228. No!
Copy !req
229. It's okay. You're okay.
Copy !req
230. I'm sorry, Anakin. I'm sorry.
Copy !req
231. It's over now. It's all over now.
Copy !req
232. It is clear to the Banking Clan
it was Rush Clovis
Copy !req
233. who was behind the corruption
that almost caused our collapse.
Copy !req
234. In hope of a better tomorrow,
we cede control of the banks
Copy !req
235. to the office of the Chancellor
of the Galactic Republic.
Copy !req
236. It is with great humility that
I take on this immense responsibility.
Copy !req
237. Rest assured,
when the Clone Wars end,
Copy !req
238. I shall reinstate the banks
as we once knew them.
Copy !req
239. But during these treacherous times,
Copy !req
240. we cannot, in good conscience,
allow our money
Copy !req
241. to fall under the manipulations
of a madman like Count Dooku
Copy !req
242. or Separatist control again.
Copy !req
243. May there be prosperity and stability
at all our Republic lands.
Copy !req
244. May our people be free and safe.
Copy !req
245. Long live the banks.
Copy !req
246. Long live the banks!
Long live the banks!
Copy !req
247. Long live the banks!
Copy !req
