TV show quotes
For a man sworn to peace, you take an unseemly pleasure in the injuries of others.
For a woman sworn to non-violence, you don't seem troubled that I could have been killed.
But you weren't. And yet I still haven't heard any thanks.
Well, you certainly haven't changed much.
A peacekeeper belongs on the front lines of conflict. Otherwise, he wouldn't be able to do his job.
The work of a peacemaker is to make sure that conflict does not arise.
Yes, a noble description, but not a realistic one.
Is reality what makes a Jedi abondon his ideals? Or is it simply a response to political convenience?
We'll have to stand and fight. Or in your case, just stand.
[confronting Obi-Wan] For generations, my ancestors fought proudly as warriors against the Jedi. [referring to Duchess Satine] Now, that woman tarnishes the very name "Mandalorian." Defend her, if you will. [gives Obi-Wan his lightsaber and removes his cape. He then takes out the Darksaber and activates it.] This lightsaber was stolen from your Jedi Temple by my ancestors during the fall of the Old Republic. Since then, many Jedi have died upon its blade. Prepare yourself to join them.
War is intolerable. We have been deceived into thinking that we must be a part of it. I say the moment we committed to fighting, we already lost.
You are quite the general now, aren't you, Master Kenobi?
Forgive me for interrupting, Your Highness, I meant no disrespect.
Senators, I presume you are acquainted with the collection of half-truths and hyperbole known as Obi-Wan Kenobi?
Your Highness is too kind.
You're right, I am.
You and Satine have a history.
An extended mission when I was younger. Master Qui-Gon and I spent a year on Mandalore, protecting the Duchess from insurgents who had threatened her world. They sent bounty hunters after us. We were always on the run, living hand to mouth, never sure what the next day would bring.
[smirks] Sounds romantic.
A Republic military presence is the only sure defense against the Separatists.
[starts down a set of stairs toward Obi-Wan] Even extremists can be reasoned with.
Perhaps if one can be heard over the clanking of their battle droids.
The sarcasm of a soldier. [comes to stand in front of Obi-Wan, glaring]
The delusion of a dreamer. [the pair glare at each other]
Duchess, Master Jedi, it's been a long trip. I think we can all use a little rest and refreshment.
Hear, hear. Now, let us put politics aside until after dinner.
[both look at Orn Free Taa] FINE! [Satine storms around Obi-Wan]
This may not be the time to ask... but were you and Satine ever— [cut off by Obi-Wan]
[angrily] I don't see how that has any bearing on the situation at hand!
[Anakin and Obi-Wan step out of the lift]
I'll take care of this, Obi-Wan. You, go find your girlfriend. [he runs away]
Right. [looks back, calls after Anakin] Ah, no, Anakin! She's not my — [cuts himself off, turning to run off in exasperation in opposite direction]
Say farewell, Duchess!
Obi, it looks like I may never see you again. I don't know quite how to say this but, I've loved you ever since you came to my aid, all those years ago!
[in disgust] I don't believe this....
Satine, this is hardly the time or place for — [looks at Satine's face] — all right... Had you said the word, I would have left the Jedi Order.
[sarcastically] That is touching! Truly it is. But it's making me sick! And we really must be going!
[scoffs] You have the romantic soul of a slug, Merrik! [stomps on his foot and gets away, holding gun on Merrik] And slugs are so often trod upon!
Interesting turnabout. But even if I do not deliver the Duchess alive to the Separatists, I still win. The second I'm away, I'll hit the remote and blow the Coronet to bits.
I will not allow that.
What will you do? If you shoot me, you prove yourself a hypocrite to every pacifist ideal you hold dear. And you, Kenobi, you are no stranger to violence. You’d be hailed as a hero by everyone on this ship... Almost everyone. Come on, then. Who will strike the first and brand themselves a cold-blooded killer? [Anakin sneaks up behind Merrik behind and stabs him in the chest with his lightsaber, catching the detonator before it hits the ground as Tal drops to the floor.]
Anakin...
What? He was going to blow up the ship.
All right, men. What's the problem? I'm missing dinner.
Just like that swarm of venom-mites on Draboon, remember?
How could I forget? I still have the scar.
Begging your pardon, Duchess. I distinctly remember carrying you to safety.
I meant the scar I got after you fell and dropped me.
Oh, yes.
Anakin, Tal Merrik is the traitor, and he's taken Satine hostage.
Copy that, but I got problems of my own right now.
Do you always carry a deactivator?
Just because I'm a pacifist doesn't mean I won't defend myself.
Now you sound like a Jedi.
How ironic to meet again only to find we're on opposing sides.
The needs of your people are all that matter. They couldn't be in better hands with you to guide their future.
Kind words indeed from a mindful and committed Jedi. And yet. . .
What?
I'm still not sure about the beard.
Why? What's wrong with it?
It hides too much of your handsome face.
