Even before the events of Revenge of the Sith, senators like Organa and Mothma were already the opposed to most of Palpatine's decisions as chancellor the former was openly against the creation of the Grand Army of the Republic (aka the clone army) in Attack of the Clones. The seeds of rebellions were already growing across the galaxy, though. A smart move, giving the impression of being in sync with the Jedi Order, even though the so-called keepers of the peace and justice are completely oblivious as to what to do about him. He quickly waves away the group, with Jedi Knight and protegé Anakin Skywalker ( Hayden Christensen) by his side. Palpatine, though, does not concede even a millimeter. Led by Amidala, the group now call themselves the Delegation of 2,000 in an attempt to show the chancellor they have strength in numbers. Which leads us to the third deleted scene, set in Palpatine's office. The conclusion is that, even though the chancellor is in active movement to try and seize control of the Jedi Council as well, by that point it's better not to include the Jedi and pursue the constitutional way to solve this issue: through a committee (remember how Han Solo mocks Leia in The Empire Strikes Back by saying "there's no time to discuss this in a committee"? That's how the people perceived the effectiveness of this kind of action). The group agrees not to talk about this meeting and their idea to anyone, not even to family.Ī second deleted scene, set in Amidala's apartment on Coruscant, shows them debating whether or not to disclose this issue to the Jedi Order. They debate the most recent attempt by Palpatine against the sovereignty of the star systems, appointing governors to each galactic sector, these being an early iteration of what would become the Moffs during the Empire. The first showed senators Organa and Mothma introducing the idea of an organization to fight for democracy to a small group of senators, Amidala among them. ![]() The theatrical version of the movie doesn't show it, but three crucial scenes deleted and left out by George Lucas are still regarded as canon. How come a single being gathered that much power? That's what senators Padmé Amidala of Naboo ( Natalie Portman), Bail Organa of Alderaan ( Jimmy Smits) and Mon Mothma of Chandrilla ( Genevieve O'Reilly) started to question in the year of 19 BBY (Before the Battle of Yavin, according to the most widespread galactic calendar).ġ9 BBY is the year on which the events of Revenge of the Sith are set, of course. ![]() By the way, the Republic never even had an army before (at least not in the new canon). Time and time again, the House kept agreeing on giving him more and more executive power over the Republic and its army. By the end of the conflict, some members of the Galactic Senate began smelling something fishy about the way Palpatine held so dearly to power.
