Darth Sidious quotes from Star Wars: The Clone Wars

Excuse the interruption. As I was saying, Bounty Hunter, I'm in need of your services.

Cad Bane

I'm listening.

I need a Jedi Holocron.

Cad Bane

To get a Holocron, I'd have to break into the Jedi temple. It's impossible, not to mention deadly.

Perhaps your reputation has been gravely exaggerated.

Cad Bane

I want a Rogue class starfighter with hyperdrive capabilities, weapons modifications, the works, oh, and triple my usual fee.

Your price is of no concern. I will also provide you with the means to get into the temple.

Cad Bane

You’ve got a deal.

Cad Bane

I have delivered what you wanted. The Jedi were no problem. Anything else I can help you with?

I need test subjects. Choose four children and bring them to Mustafar. I will take care of them.

Cad Bane

Kidnapping innocent children? Sounds like a small time crime for the likes of you.

Among the children of the Jedi, there are no innocents.

Cad Bane

Sure, sure. As long as I get paid, it makes no difference to me. [puts his hat on]

Master, subjects of this age rarely survive the slave conditioning procedure.

I’m afraid the risk is necessary. The natural talent these children possess is too great to be wasted by the Jedi. I foresee an army of Force-talented spies in my service, trained in the dark side to peer into every corner of the galaxy from afar, and my enemies would be helpless against such vision. If the surgery fails, I will have lost nothing.

Lord Tyranus.

Count Dooku

My master.

There is a disturbance in the Force. Your assassin, she has become very powerful.

Count Dooku

Yes, my lord. She is quite important to me.

Too important.

Count Dooku

Master--

Silence! I can sense her powers getting stronger. I would hate to think you are training your own Sith apprentice to destroy him.

Count Dooku

Never! My allegiance is to you and you alone.

Then you must prove it. Eliminate her.

Count Dooku

She is my most trusted--

I SAID, ELIMINATE HER!!!!

Count Dooku

As you wish, my lord.

The Son

I have a gift for you.

Anakin

I have had enough of your trickery.

The Son

Oh, but you'll like this one, I promise... What if I could show you the future?

Anakin

[clutches his head as unseen visions assault him] No. No! Stop it!

The Son

Know yourself. Know what you will become!

Anakin

I will not look!

The Force is strong with you. [Anakin sees Sidious shooting lightning at his son, as well as Darth Vader killing younglings and Force-choking Padmé]

Padmé

[voice] Anakin, please!

Obi Wan

You were my brother, Anakin!

[Voice as Alderaan is blown to bits] I HATE YOU!

Anakin

No, no. No! NOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!! [he falls to his knees, close to tears] I will do such terrible things...

The Son

Yes... but it doesn't have to be that way. The choice is still yours to make.

Anakin

How?

The Son

The future, by its nature, can be changed. Join me, and together we will destroy this Emperor that you see in your visions, then we shall end war, corruption and suffering throughout the galaxy!

Anakin

[hesitant] Will we bring peace?

The Son

Of course.

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.

Darth Maul

Hmm, I sense a presence, a presence I haven't felt since... [suddenly senses that Sidious is there] Master! [Darth Sidious enters the throne room, Force-choking the guards as he does. Maul walks up to him and kneels] Master.

I am most impressed to see that you have survived your injuries.

Darth Maul

I used your training, Master, and I have built all this in hopes of returning to your side.

[takes note of Savage] Hmm. How unfortunate that you are attempting to deceive me.

Darth Maul

[confused] Master?

You have become a RIVAL! [Force pushes Maul and Savage into a wall, laughs evilly and releases them. All of them ignite their lightsabers and fight]

Darth Maul

[after Sidious impales Savage Opress with his lightsabers and laughs evilly] Brother...

Savage Opress

[mortally wounded as his body turns back to its normal state] Brother, I am an unworthy apprentice. I'm not like you. I never was. [dies. Maul looks stricken, then enraged as Sidious laughs evilly behind him]

[to Maul] Remember, the first and only reality of the Sith: There can only be two. And you are no longer my apprentice. [Maul looks in anger at him] You have been replaced.

Darth Maul

[Pleading] Have mercy. Please! Please!

There is no mercy. [tortures Maul with Force Lightning] Do not worry. I'm not going to kill you. I have...other uses for you. [laughs evilly as he continues torturing Maul]

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)

Lord Tyranus, the Republic fleet will arrive shortly.

Count Dooku

Very good my lord, the entire operation has been orchestrated to make it look like Clovis was behind everything.

And when this is over, the Republic will place the banks under the control of the Supreme Chancellor. (laughs maniacally)

Tell me, why are the Jedi looking for Master Sifo-Dyas? What trail are they following?

Count Dooku

If there is a trail, it is unknown to me.

Retrace your steps, find this loose end, and eliminate them.

Count Dooku

Yes, my master.

This is not the first time you have proven to be clumsy, Lord Tyranus. (begins force choking Dooku through the hologram) You know the price of failure (ends hologram, Dooku can breathe again).

You must choose!

Don't listen to him, Anakin!

It's not the Jedi way. He must live!

Mace Windu

He's too dangerous to be left alive!

Please don't!

Anakin Skywalker

I need him!

UNLIMITED POWER!!!!!!!!!! [Ahsoka clutches her head in pain, closing her eyes]

What have I done?!

Ahsoka Tano

[horrified] Anakin?

Execute Order 66.

Yes, Lord Sidious.

Ahsoka

Rex, it's Anakin. I feel like something terrible has happened. [she notices Rex is shaking; he drops his helmet as the other clone troopers raise their blasters at her] Rex?

[to the other clones] No! I'll do it.

Ahsoka

Rex, what's happening?

[draws his pistols on her] Stay back! [struggling to speak, with tears in his eyes] Find him. Find him. Fives. Find him! FIVES!!! [Rex and the clones open fire]
