"So be it... Jedi." Emperor Palpatine, Return of the Jedi

As Shaak-Ti prepares to defend The Jedi Temple, Anakin Skywalker takes a speeder, and through the pouring rain, flies to Chancellor's Office.

Meanwhile, The Jedi arrive at the Senate. Mace and his posse make their way towards the private office of Palpatine where he is awaiting them. As they enter the office, Palpatine activates an audio recording device and secretly hides his saber in the sleeve of his robe.

The trap is set.

The four Jedi confront Palpatine who acts surprised and fearful. The Jedi light their sabers. But, without warning, Palpatine strikes first; killing Saesee Tiin and Agen Kolar within a fraction of a second.

"Murder! Treason!" he shouts.

Then he smiles. Putting his finger to his lips, and winking at the two Jedi, Palpatine destroys the recording device with a stab of his red lightsaber.

"Enough of this!" declares Sidious; and with a slash of his saber, the green head of Kit Fisto lands on the Chancellor's control centre. Mace begins his attack. The two fight, moving into the public office of the Chancellor.

Outside in the rain, Anakin drives the speeder close to the window. Kit Fisto's head stares directly at him from upon the desk. Anakin lights his saber and cuts through the glass, entering the private office.
