“Lies, deceit, creating mistrust are his ways now.” Yoda, Episode II.

After returning to Coruscant, Yoda and Obi-Wan quickly make their way to the Jedi Temple. In a gallant effort to save the Jedi throughout the galaxy, the two Jedi switch the Jedi beacons from “Return home” to “Run for cover.”

However, Obi-Wan can’t help but watch the recordings from the Temple’s hologram camera system. To his horror, he witnesses the murder of the Jedi Younglings by Anakin Skywalker.

Obi-Wan visits Padme and reveals to her the truth about Anakin; the slaughter in the Temple, his allegiance to Sith... He asks her if she knows where Anakin is: she says “no.”

He also knows that Padme is a woman who does not stay still. So he waits for her to board her Royal Naboo Starship with Threepio and Artoo. Just as the ramp into the ship is about to close, Obi-Wan secretly stows away aboard the ship.

Meanwhile Master Yoda makes his way to the Great Senate to meet his deadliest foe…
