Count Dooku quotes from Star Wars: The Clone Wars

Mother Talzin

You have heard of the Sith warrior, Darth Maul, have you not?

Count Dooku

Yes. He was slain on Naboo at the hand of Obi Wan Kenobi.

Mother Talzin

A few still remain in his bloodline. The men dwell on the far side of Dathomir. What if I could provide you with another of his kind?

Count Dooku

A warrior of the same caliber?

Mother Talzin

Yes. But I warn you, men are easy to acquire, hard to control.

Count Dooku

With my last assassin, Asajj Ventress, dead and the Jedi's attacks against me increasing, procuring a new personal assassin is essential.

Mother Talzin

Very well. It shall be done, my Lord.

Dooku

You have done well, Savage. I'll have much use for you.

Savage Opress

Thank you, my Lord.

Dooku

I foresee we will do great things together. I shall teach you the ways of the dark side. Soon, your powers will rival that of the great Sith Lord, Darth Maul. We will be even more powerful than Lord Sidious. We shall rule the galaxy together, my apprentice.

Savage Opress

I am your servant, Master.

Count Dooku

Sister.

Mother Talzin

Count Dooku, may I present Savage Opress. (Savage walks out of the ship with weapon in hand)

Count Dooku

He certainly is a sight to behold.

Mother Talzin

The fiercest of his kind, he shall serve you well.

Count Dooku

(with a sinister smile) Yes. He shall. (Savage kneels)

Count Dooku

You must strengthen your connection with the Force, my apprentice. Feel its power within you. [using the Force, he lifts two rows of pillars into the air as a demonstration of his power. After a few seconds, he releases them] Now… lift them. [Savage gets into position] Concentrate. [Savage tries to lift the pillars with the Force, but to no avail]

Savage Opress

What you ask is impossible!

Count Dooku

Impossible? The task is only impossible because you have deemed it so. You must connect with your hatred! [blasts Savage with Force Lightning] Focus on your power building. Do not think of anyone or anything else. [blasts Savage with Force Lightning again] That's it. Your anger is your strength.

Savage Opress

[shudders] I... hate you!

Count Dooku

Good. [blasts Savage with Force Lightning again. In the process, Savage stands up and lifts two pillars with the Force]

Savage Opress

How does one defend against such power?

Count Dooku

A wise master does not reveal all his secrets at once. In due time, my apprentice.

Count Dooku

You have completed the first stages of your training, and I am sending you on an assignment to Toydaria. You will bring me King Katuunko alive. Kill all who might interfere.

Savage Opress

Yes, my Master. [kneels] It will be done. [boards his ship and departs for Toydaria]

Count Dooku

[after Savage kills King Katuunko] You ignorant beast! I told you I wanted him alive! [blasts Savage with Force Lightning]

Savage Opress

[after being shocked] Forgive me, my master.

Count Dooku

That is not the way of the dark side. [blasts Savage with Force Lightning again. Ventress then arrives on the scene] Ventress!

Asajj Ventress

That's no way to treat your apprentice. I should know.

Count Dooku

[drawing lightsaber] Savage, you can make amends for your mistake by destroying this witch.

Asajj Ventress

[cackles gleefully] I don't think that will be happening! Will it, Savage? [taps Savage's forehead] Remember where your true loyalties lie.

Savage Opress

With you... mistress. [both of them draw their lightsabers]

Asajj Ventress

Kill him! Kill him, you fool! [yells]

Savage Opress

[he tries to attack, but Dooku blasts him with Force Lightning] Ah! I can't. He's too powerful.

Asajj Ventress

Your weakness will not be my downfall!

Count Dooku

A failed apprentice makes for a foolish master!

This turn of events is unfortunate. General Grievous is a critical part of my plan for the Clone Wars. He must not remain captive.

Count Dooku

What is to be done, my Lord?

You must lure Skywalker into a trap, then negotiate a prisoner exchange.

Count Dooku

How can you be certain the Republic will trade Grievous for Skywalker?

I have no doubt Senator Amidala will gladly agree to your terms.

Count Dooku

You're a fool, Rish Loo. [ignites his lightsaber and stabs Rish Loo]

Anakin Skywalker

Why bring the war to Naboo?

Count Dooku

How quickly you forget, the war started here on Naboo many years ago.

Anakin Skywalker

You were a part of that first battle?

Count Dooku

The Sith control everything, you just don't know it!

Anakin Skywalker

You should have quit while you were still alive, Dooku!

Dooku

Fighting off the entire Jedi security force would have been difficult. But now that they are gone, [he activates his lightsaber] defeating you alone will be an easy task.

Count Dooku

I can sense him, Grievous. That creature, Savage Opress, is growing stronger and stronger as each day passes.

General Grievous

[coughing] You consider him a threat?

Count Dooku

He is a threat to all of us, even the Jedi. With the Nightsisters eradicated, there's no one left to control him. Something is rising, something sinister.

General Grievous

Hondo.

Hondo Ohnaka

General Grievous I presume. What a surprise. Have a seat. What may I ask is the honor?

General Grievous

You can cease with the pleasantries, pirate! This planet [grabs Hondo by the shirt] is now under Separatist control.

Hondo Ohnaka

Uh-uh and what do you suppose that means?

General Grievous

It means you have a new master, pirate scum. [throws Hondo on the floor]

Count Dooku

[via hologram] Hondo Ohnaka, we meet again. As I remember the last time we meet face to face, I was your prisoner, and you attempted to bargain me off to the highest bidder.

Hondo Ohnaka

But can you blame me, I mean a Sith lord, what a handsome price you would have--

Count Dooku

Silence. You are going to pay the price for your treachery.

Hondo Ohnaka

Well I am a reasonably man, name the price. I'm sure we work something--

Count Dooku

There will be payment, but no deals, only demands. Your entire arsenal will be melted down. Everything you own is now property of the Separatist Alliance.

Hondo Ohnaka

Now you go too far, unacceptable! This is an outrage. [Grievous points to his bodyguards to contain Hondo] Now, hold on, we can make a deal. This is not good business!

Count Dooku

My lord, I have received a report that leads me to conclude that there may be a grave complication with one of our assets.

Assets?

Count Dooku

Yes sir, a clone trooper has executed one of the Jedi Generals.

And you believe this is indicative of our programming?

Count Dooku

I do my lord, but I cannot be certain.

It is pertinent that we ascertain if this is an isolated event - a failure of this particular clone's programming, otherwise my plans may be ruined. Seize the clone immediately.

Count Dooku

Yes, my master.

Count Dooku

Our plan has gone undiscovered, Master. The clone in question is now dead, and the Jedi still suspect nothing.

Good. Destroy all evidence. When the time comes, no one will be able to stop our plan to execute Order 66. (laughs maniacally)

Clovis, what is going on?

I didn't want this to happen.

Count Dooku

Why don't you tell her what you did want and how you got it?

Dooku?

Count Dooku

Hasn't she joined our cause? Clovis tells me of how instrumental you were to his rise to power.

If I had known...

Count Dooku

Either you are with us, or against us. Arrest her! (his guards take her)

We can't do this Dooku, the Separatist Senate would never approve.

Battle Droid

(Padme takes his gun and points it at Dooku) Hey!

(Dooku uses the force and makes Padme point it at Bec) No! No! NOOOO!!!! (she shoots him)

(gasps) No!

Are you insane?! this wasn't part of the deal!

What deal, what is going on?

Count Dooku

He's given us the banks. Gone are our debts, and gone is any credit for the Republic.

All this time, your idealism, just lies!

You wouldn't understand.

Count Dooku

Everyone has a price, my dear.
