[ The stream goes live with two men standing in front of the camera. They both look a little stiff in front of it, though the bearded man seems more relaxed and casual while the taller one seemed a little . . . frowny ]

Greetings, my name is Obi-Wan Kenobi. And this is my compatriot and partner, Anakin Skywalker. We hail from Coruscant and are part of the Jedi Order.

The Jedi are keepers of peace … most of the time.

[ Before Obi-Wan can say anything, Anakin looks over at him with a shrug. ]

I’m just saying.

[ Obi-Wan sighs. ]

Yes. Well, nevertheless. We would like to offer our services to the public. We’ve been trained in negotiation, trade and, yes, the art of a good fight. If you need support or bereft of someone to help you . . . then we’re happy to serve.

And blowing things up. We’re good at that too!

[ Obi-Wan looks skyward as if imploring a higher deity. ]

Yes. We’re good at that too.

Not everyone has the patience for them. I can’t fault him. Some people pretend to be acting in the best interests of the people when it’s really for themselves. My mother dealt with all kinds, as I’m sure your Senator Amidala did.

[He takes a breath, looking at him - really looking at him. This was the person he had idolized most of his life when really it was Palpatine pretending to be him. He felt like he didn’t know a thing about him now.]

I’ve always been more interested in flying, myself.
