Good job bro
aninkin "i got bad news"
Yoda "there is no bad news there is just news"
aninkin "palp is the sith lord"
yoda "right thats terrible news!"
Anakin "I've got bad news"
Yoda "Bad news, there is not. Just news, it is"
Anakin "Palp is the Sith Lord"
Yoda "... Terrible news, that is"
No.
"Terrible news this is"
😂frfr
"is this news Terrible, "
That is bad news... If you don't believe that the Chosen One can defeat the Sith Lord.
"I am indeed the darkness that will destroy yo-."
"NUH-UH"
"The f*** you mean NU-"
Clones: "So anyway, I started blasting"
lmao

“As Jedi Masters- and Anakin”
Mate why’d you do him dirty?
And Ahsoka was there too so he wasn't the only one not a Jedi
He was declined a master card
@@RetroGamerBB I am sure he's happy with his Republic Express Card! Don't leave the temple without it!😛
@@RetroGamerBB this needs far more likes.
Because it was hilarious 😂
“Are you certain?”
“Why does everyone keep asking me that?”
Before the Jedi spoke up, Anakin should had informed Padme and members of the security council first. As soon as Palpy mentioned that the Clone Wars' ending soon, one of the Senators like Padme should had spoken up and ask for a quick vote to remove Palpy's emergency powers. Anakin should be really pissed that the multiple assassination attempts on Padme had been due to Palpy all along. The same with the Jedi presenting that multiple times that there were attempts to diplomatically end the war, it seems like both sides wanted to extend it and Palpy actively rejected any peaceful resolutions to end it or at least stall for both sides to cease fire and talk.
Meanwhile Palpatine in his office, "well, the Jedi sure are taking their sweet time to react... this does put a wrench in my plan..."
Not really
If Palpatine gets to win the clone wars as a Chancellor, he will have a lot of power and can continue influencing the Senate.
Even if the Jedi are a thorn in his side, he still wields a massive amount of power and the Jedi cannot face him head on or they'll face order 66 anyway.
And if there is one thing the Jedi are bad in, then its the 'ways of the dark side'
The real problem Palpatine will be left with is that as Sidious, he won't ever be truly rid of the Jedi.
"As Jedi Masters, and Anakin.." Oof. I felt the sadness & frustration in that line that Anakin likely feels about not being granted the rank of Master.
I never understood why Yoda and Obi-Wan split up. They should have confronted Palpatine together and then confronted Anakin together. By splitting up, they gave away their advantage.
because movie anh, esb and rotj were made prior to these movies, forcing the plot.
That's just the problem with most prequels in general. A lot of contrivence is necessary for the plot to progress.
I believe it's stated or implied somewhere that Obi-Wan wasn't powerful enough to be anything but a liability in a fight against the Emperor.
Obi wan in post material of ROTS movie has had a higher power ceiling. A common thing obi wan has was he was weaker towards his force protection. Initially in the 2000s
It's how you saw him being knocked out by Dooku even when it was a 2 against 1.
It's a weird rock paper scissors thing.
Obi wan couldnt beat Dooku but Anakin did but yet obi wan beat Anakin.
@@wb7585yhea I think that kinda adds to what the guy above you said
"The council chamber then fell into a tense silence as the Jedi Masters, and Anakin comntemplated the situation" xD
I love Palpatine's reponse to the Jedi's accusations very calm very thought out you nailed Palpatine's personality very well. Good job.
Love how you play Sideous here. Not cracking or immediately buckling from confrontation and continuing to play along as the kind Chancellor. Quite tense during the senate meeting with the Jedi.
Great story! I loved how calm and collected Palpatine was during the Senate session, at least outwardly. He's a master of deception and improvisation, and your writing shows that perfectly.
You're my favorite SW what-if author :)
Glad you liked the video, man :)
First ten minutes summarized:
Yoda: “What troubles you?”
Anakin: “Palpatine is a Sith Lord.”
Yoda: “Sure, are you?”
Anakin: “Yes, Master.”
Yoda: “Pulling up, I am.”
Mace: “Yoda told me the news. Are you sure it’s true?”
Anakin: “Yes, Master.”
Obi-Wan: “Anakin, Cody told me you called. What’s wrong?”
Anakin: “Palpatine is a Sith Lord.”
Obi-Wan: “Are you sure?”
Anakin: “Yes, Master.”
Obi-Wan: “Imma pull up.”
What if Sidious suffered a brain injury that resulted in him believing that he was merely a politician?
Now that's a video!
That’s Goku. If he didn’t hit his head he would’ve destroyed the earth
Lovely story. And finally a story where Agen Kolar doesn't get immediately trashed.
Why would the Senate not ask for a midi-chlorian count of Palpatine just to see if he's lying? The only reason he would decline doing it is if he is a sith. There's no way you could tell me someone like padme or mon mothma wouldn't think of that.
When has the Senate be smart?
12:42 the question remains, what about the droid attack on the wookies?
*yoda turns his com off*
I’m glad I found your channel. You are an excellent storyteller. 😮
13:55 Jedi Master May Swindle is my favorite character
I paused the video and looked for this comment😂
Why does that actually sound like a name a Star Wars character would have?
There are fics about how Anakin is trained by Revan. But what if instead it was Obi-Wan who was trained by Revan's ghost? Maybe during the time when Obi-Wan was abandoned by Qui-Gon on Melida/Daan and took him as his apprentice, teaching him all he knew?
Thanks for the help, Amy :) And thanks for the idea as well, it’s great and I’ll add it to my list :)
@@starwarsquill Thank you too and thakns for the amazing content ^^
@@AmyFlannigan27 :)
I think it made sense for the story for him to have told a lesser member of the council, because he felt the more powerful members of the council were opposed to him, and so it would make sense for him to try to elevate someone potentially also opposed to the more powerful members.
10:28 "jedi masters... and anakin" anakin wouldnt be too happy with that description haha
Mace: I heard you have informed Master Yoda of the recent relevations and I must thank you.
Anakin: For what Master?
Mace: I might have done something rash, like attempting to assassinate Palpatine and doom the entire order on the spot. I'm not as calm as I think I am after all.
Really like this tale of Anakin telling Yoda
Just a note for any "What if...?" stories that take place after the Prequel or Original Trilogies: The next major conflict, regardless of whether or not the Jedi Order fell would be the Yuuzhan Vong War, beginning in 25 ABY. And that Darth Krayt was operating in the shadows the entire time since becoming a Sith during the Clone Wars, finally attacking the Jedi around 41 ABY. And he would be a major threat for about the next 100 years.
13:58 May Swindle, I literally looked at the captions the exact second that appeared oof
What if every single jedi turned to the dark side except Anakin
Having someone as strong on offense already in Mace and then Force Manipulation in Yoda....itd be like he was little Annie again lol
So, if Anakin told Yoda this, we would not get Mace vs Palps, calm negotations, impossible plans which would lead to Empire never building up, Leia possibly never meeting Han and never getting Ben... and Snoke being in background (I refuse to believe Episode 9 stuff. Sue me) and trying to find a good plan to overthrown more powerful Jedi but all possibilities being useless. Fun.
you could have added in the end: "Anakin earned the complete trust of all jedi master during this ordeal, as the Jedi council elected to elevate him to the rank of Master. The decision was lead by Mace Windu, firstly supported by Yoda, then Obi Wan, as they've seen first hand Anakin overcome his turmoil, and remain to the light side. The jedi known to be rebellious, had remained calm, collected, and open to others advices and suggestions."
it would also stand to reason that a result of all of this would bring a reform into the jedi's teaching. With all their emotion suppression
also, can't clone troopers helm carry recording devices?
100% thought Ki-Adi was about to say but what about the Wookies(again)
What if Jedi realised Palpatine's trap but didn't have convincing evidence and were forced to coexist with the sith after the clone wars?
Artoo could download all of Palpatine's communication records with ease. There's lots of incriminating evidence there.
@@dionr1168 Were it so easy, all those Bothan spies wouldn't have had to die.
@@BIGESTblade Except Artoo was already a known enemy to the Empire during the time of ROTJ (especially having already been a wanted droid during ANH). He couldn't sneak into the Imperial Palace anywhere near as easily as he could have snuck into the Chancellor's office during ROTS (as he was clearly Anakin's droid at that time, and of course Palpatine was attempting to turn Anakin to the Dark Side).
@@dionr1168 More than one Chad droid in the galaxy.
What if anakin died in revenge of the sith and was reborn with his memories and appearance (but he starts as a newborn obviously)
Now that’ll be interesting. Would he be light or Darkside Vader or Anakin?
@@user-cx8xn6fx2v i think that he would want to kill the emperor and have his revenge on obi
alwways fascinating listening to these "what if" scenarios, well done!
Anakin - yo dude I need sus shit from papa palpatine dude knows the darkside . Yoda - yeah we’re fkd anakin dudes the senate . Anakin - aw come on man we’re smarter then this
Anakin "Master Yoda, I have bad news"
Yoda "Bad news, there is not. Just news, it is"
Anakin "Chancellor Palpatine is the Sith Lord"
Yoda "... Terrible news, that is"
God damn, this was good.
35:40 *batman* I saw that!
this was like an audiobook, W vid bro
Glad you liked it, man :)
That was absolutely beautiful. New subscriber! Thank you.
What is Obi-Wan got a call from Anakin during his fight with grievous and grievous heard Anakin say that palpatine is sidious causing them (Obi-Wan and grievous) to team up.
That has no sense, griveus knew that palpatine is the sith lord, the unique griveus motivation is to destroy the jedi
@@megavictor025 I agree that he wants to destroy the Jedi but I don't think he was aware that sidious and palpatine was the same. In the novel of the revenge of the sith he remarks why they kept palpatine alive.
I really enjoyed this possible story line.. I love Alternate endings..you did a great job 🙂🙂🙂
I could see the jedi reforming to be more open after this. Letting Anikan openly raise his kids, maybe let some jedi decide to be part time jedi and live their own lives. You could think either like a church where you volunteer and go to services but not necessarily be a full time pastor, or like the national guard where you have a civilian life and jedi training. And for the love of the force, please stop taking children to train, that's culty. let anyone join at any age but let them live with their family and just go to jedi school during the day. Oh and the jedi order itself should not be the republic law enforcement/ military, but individual jedi could go work for the republic under the republic's jurisdiction and not under the jedi order itself.
Thats such a bad idea. Literally a conveyer belt for Dark Side users.
@@dannylopez5976 The jedi were too afraid of that happening which led to most of their problems and their downfall. With a proper balance I don’t think that would happen.
I feel like if the Jedi had decided to let the Bad Batch accompany them to Palpatine’s office as well, that would have been an awesome touch 🔥
100% this crossed my mind multiple times while debating with myself. Pretty sure they had a Great Role in deinhibiting the clones on Kamino
Thanks for another good one Quill. I see you used Torben's lightsaber deflection footage for that scene with Palpatine in his office. I was thinking the actor who plays Torben would have been a perfect choice for young Sheev Palpatine. An Interesting coincidence.
Yea, wish we got more of him. I liked the Acolyte but by the end, everyone I really liked… became one with the force lol.
I hope if we get a season 2 they focus on Vernestra Rwoh or [SPOILERS].
@@starwarsquill Definitely excited to see more of Vern, [Spoiler], and the Senator who I was surprised I'd end up liking. Sucks they killed a lot of favs tho but keeps everyone on their toes, that nobody is safe.
Wouldn't Palpatine have the Inquisitors by now to protect him in times of being cornered like this?
Also, wouldn't the Jedi not further question Maul on Palpatine on how to prepare themselves against him?
I don't think the Inquisitor existed at the time, they were no Jedi recruited by Sidious, nor force sensitives pupils ready at the time. Maybe calling them wasn't even relevant, as Sidious looked confident enough.
And I'm pretty sure the Jedi did question Maul, and prepared themselves for this fight. Maul was still hating Sidious at the time. He was trained a Sith and would act like one. Not necessarily hating the Jedi, since "The enemy of my enemy is my ally", but he would give advice of a Dark Side user, which Jedi most likely wouldn't listen, as they were using patience, temperance and careful decisions, unlike Sith trained warrior would.
Niceness...riveting alternate versión
Well done
"It took all 4 of you to take me down?" Sidious left the game
The amount of "There's something I need to tell you" makes this hard to take seriously.
Within human speed genuinely comes across as dead slow... I know it's inhuman speed you intended but the subtitle took it as within
Yea the subs get wonkey sometimes:/
If yoda stayed in coruscant, anakin would go to him not windu and yoda would arrest palpatine which would result in his death soon afterwards once his trial ends. Palpatine would not be able to escape this time nor change the battlefield and so yoda would defeat him as per canon
This is how your story with the jedi not knowing about the clones should have gone. All jedi were still dispersed with their clone units. All younglings were still at the temple when Yoda, Mace, Obi Wan and Anakin confronted Palpatine in his office. Palpatine knew he had the best light saber fighters against him. He did make one final plea to Anakin before he said his most famous words. "It's treason then." He called on his com link Execute Order 66, while the jedi flashed their sabers. He grinned and jumped out the window to escape. While the jedi had to look back and Yoda was the first one to decapitate their clone jailers. The jedi had a sudden alarm that they had to go back and protect the temple. So they fought their way through as clone commanders were walking their army pass the gates as one of the temple guards had betrayed the others. When the four main jedi came, there was a huge war going on inside the temple. They easily beat all the clones in front of them and turned the tide of the war. They were able to save the younglings and escape. Most of the older jedi were killed off, but all the younglings survived. With Mace, Obi Wan, Anakin, and Yoda in the lead, they went to a new location to rebuild their order as they now know that the Republic is now against them. End of story.
I think that the Jedi would have also consulted some of the senators that they know they can trust, such as Padme and Bail Organa where they would have been able to be better prepared for some of the counter-arguments against Palpatine's charismatic persuasions.
Take a seat, you must. A master you are not.
Stay consistent on the work your doing with these fan fictions 🔥
Thanks :)
Very much like this story..but an added snippet of a twist would be better if it was; "Palpatine's LIGHTSABER..still clutched in his disembodied hand...".
Oh and one more thing as icing on the cake. The Grand Inquisitor is now Darth Sidios new apprentice leading all clones to fight the jedi. 😉
Didnt tcw show us that they can determine whoever is using a hologram? And dont we also know that nute gunrays chair had recordings of sideous on it? Not to mention ones from dooku, grevious, etc.
Not going to lie bro, this was a good what if, most what if fan theories I watch often feel pretentious or unoriginal but this one was great 👍
This only works if Obi-Wan doesn't report the death of General Grievous, which ended the war and was the signal to the Emperor that it was time for Order 66.
Here's the problem: you didn't kill Shaak Tee.
Fr
@am1ngus She died half a dozen times, and counting. If you show her, you need to have her die.
i like how you dont go with the usual fanstory stuff making anakin seem like a god in your videos and pay attention to alot more canon details!
"If it black it wears push it down the stairs"
Grandmaster Yoda probably
My brain has come up with like 4 different accents in your voice
pretty sure palpatine would’ve had a better plan than wait for the jedis to arrest him since here he has way more time to prepare
Great insight! Unfortunately it was Anakin's fate to be loyal to Palpatine at that moment because of the prophesy and he being the chosen one. He was the one that was to kill Palpatine to destroy the Sith as it happened in the original timeline.
I think Palpatine would have figured out that the Jedi aren't coming to kill him much sooner and would have put order 66 in motion long before the Jedi get to arrange an emergency council meeting.
"and batman would remain alive and well" how sneaky of you lol
Good what if's as always
Excellent alternate history, but I think Palpatine would have sensed early on if the Jedi were on to him
Thats why you set to stun. The circular beam is harder to deflect.
Mace Windu... overlooking the window escape route. He just can't escape it, can he? LOL
I generally agree with you. Although I would change it slightly. I think the Jedi would have connected everything they knew about Sidious, Dooku, and the Sith and the Clones and figured out what was going on with the chips, they would have found out about the contingency orders and figured out how they could be used against the Sith. To that end, they decided to use a known friend of theirs Senator Padme to make their case before the senate and demand that the Chancellor be temporarily removed from the powers of his office until a trial could be held. This would prevent him from being able to execute Order 66. I see you also avoided discussing what would happen with Anakin. I think in the days following his revelation he would reveal the entire situation to Master Kenobi, and Kenobi as a friend and mentor would help him through it as things were going forward.
Sensing Anakin letting go of his fear, the rest of the Council would recognize his path and that his great trial had been past. I think Anakin would have been made a Master. This would solidify his position within the light. The issue of his relationship with the Senator would be dealt with later. And I believe he would be permitted to attend the meeting with the Chancellor. Anakin's destiny was, in this timeline to destroy the Sith, and he would strike the final blow, not Yoda. And one more thing. I believe that the clones would have recorded their meeting with the Chancellor, via the clones, or with a hidden recorder, possibly broadcasting the entire conversation to Senators.
I'm actually somewhat early for once, great video!
It's like the worse Hollywood gets, the better the UA-cams gets. Liked and subscribed
The evidence against Palpatine had to be very solid. His identity as a Sith and him being one would not be something illegal and he would be able to easlity defend himself. Rather, the focus of the case would have to be on Palpatine being a traitor who collaborated with the enemy.
The Republic banned the Sith during the high republic era
What if Palpatine told everyone he was a Sith by the time of just before Revenge of the Sith?
It wasn't illegal, and the confusion and inability to act would cloud the jedi even more
Plus, Palpatine still had order 66 and could try an convince Anakin that not all Sith were evil
Meanwhile the Jedi need to find evidence of Palpatine's actions as Sidious all the while knowing that a Sith Lord has control over pretty much everything, and they can't assasinate him or kill him because it would be murder of an innocent
Maul and Dooku would be issues, but small ones to Palpatine
I've been saying this but the only way the Jedi can get out of this situation without killing Palpatine and doing it the legal way was to capture Nute Gunray.
Disney need to do some Star Wars what if in the style of marvels what if
What if Palpatine was actually Jar Jar's apprentice??
I like to imagine that palpetine gave anakin his visions in his dreams with his dark side mind manipulation powers dx.
No way they would have time to get that many chips removed
They 100% had the time. Democracy in the Republic is known as slow and difficult. The secrecy the Jedi were capable had gave them some time. If they had time to hide the Youglings, they had time to remove chips. Ashoka did it on Rex, with little to no understanding of it, on a simple Jedi cruiser. Imagine on a medical facility with experienced Kaminoans, medical personals, droids and the help of authority figures like higher up clone, Bounty Hunter Trainers..., enforced by Jedi, maybe Clone Force 99. In a calm controlled environment in which Palpatine had little to no control over, because it was Dooku's job to ensure the clone were not a problem. They had the time, and were probably not even in a rush.
This is quite enjoyable and I appreciate the hard work that went into this video. IMO, there is just one possible flaw with your reasoning. Palpatine's plan hinged on provoking an aggressive and direct confrontation with the Jedi. Days pass between the time Palpatine reveals himself to Anakin and the Jedi bringing Maul and the separatists before the senate. I don't believe during that time that Palpatine would have done nothing. It would have been clear to him after, at most, a day that his ploy to provoke the Jedi had failed and he would have taken other measures. Palpatine is brilliant and has tremendous foresight.
Yoda would have used his brain not his prick like mace
What if Anakin told Ahsoka first about palpatine being sidious?
Really goes to show how much of a risk Palpatine took to depend on Anakin to make the right decision and join the dark side in terms of his grand plan
What if Qui won was named chancellor after the blockade on naboo
Are you suggesting that Qui Gon and Obi Won did the fusion dance for this what if?
@@Eliezar18 oh no, just writing on the train xD, i write bad
@@Eliezar18 "I am Qui-Won Jinnobi! It's over, Maul! I've come for you! Every force you create has an echo!"
Anakin Skywalker should have told Padme about what palpy had said to him, he could have still been a jedi, if he never cut of Mace Windu hand he could of killed palpy
Kenobi: another happy ending 😅❤
Damn this is good!
I think Palpatine had them in checkmate by the time he revealed himself to Anakin. That's why he was so confident in revealing it, the only thing that could possibly thwart everything was if Anakin decided to kill Palpatine then and there without consulting with the Jedi.
One of your best!
great video
Things never ever would have played out this way. If there’s anything Star Wars has consistently taught us about Sidious, it’s that he has a contingency plan for everything. They may not always work in the end, but he never just sits on his hands. Whilst the Jedi Council was sitting around in the council chambers, Sidious would have initiated order 66, and he would have had clone troopers arrest Padme and Obi Wan. Clones would attack the Jedi temple, too many to stop. Anakin and some Jedi Council members would escape, and Sidious would use Padme and Obi Wan to lure Anakin to him where he would watch them be killed along with his unborn children, enraging him and turning him to the dark side.
Alternatively, he might just flee to the Unknown Regions and raise Luke and Leia as Sith but I think his primary goal would be still be to turn Anakin if possible.
On the down side of loosing the Empire, we would loose so many Disney Plus side stories. The need for the iconic villain Darth Vader is for real.
I liked this what-if scenario well done
I want to see "What if Anakin had just confided in Obi-Wan for help saving Padme?"
“The Jedi masters.. and Anakin..”
Haircut. You’re a Jedi Knight. Show respect.
Minor error: Shaak Ti was killed by General Grevious before Palpatine was "rescued" (Source: deleted scene)
I don’t think that’s canon. Per the novelization she was in the temple when Anakin left to save Palpatine. Anakin later kills her in the temple (a deleted scene and Yoda’s vision in the Clone Wars confirms this).
What if ahsoka was the one who betrays the clones on umbara?
Sounds depressing.
So Ahsoka magically becomes a sadistic bastard and pits squads of her own troopers against each other… for what, now? Yeah that sounds totally in character…
