:18:02
If I may say so, your Majesty...
:18:04
the chancellor
has little real power.
:18:06
He is mired by baseless
accusations of corruption.
:18:10
- The bureaucrats are in charge now.
- What options have we?
:18:14
Our best choice would be
to push for the election...
:18:17
of a stronger
supreme chancellor...
:18:19
one who could control
the bureaucrats...
:18:22
and give us justice.
:18:24
You could call for a vote of
no confidence in Chancellor Valorum.
:18:30
He has been
our strongest supporter.
:18:32
Our only other choice would be
to submit a plea to the courts.
:18:37
The courts take even longer
to decide things than the senate.
:18:41
Our people are dying, Senator.
:18:44
We must do something quickly
to stop the Federation.
:18:47
To be realistic, your Majesty...
:18:50
I think we're going to have to
accept Federation control...
:18:52
for the time being.
:18:56
That is something I cannot do.
:19:05
He was trained in the Jedi arts.
:19:08
My only conclusion can be
that it was a Sith lord.
:19:12
Impossible.
:19:13
The Sith have been extinct
for a millennium.
:19:16
I do not believe the Sith could
have returned without us knowing.
:19:21
Hard to see,
the dark side is.
:19:23
We will use all our resources
to unravel this mystery.
:19:26
We will discover the identity
of your attacker.
:19:29
May the Force be with you.
:19:35
Master Qui-Gon.
:19:37
More to say have you?
:19:41
With your permission, my master...
:19:44
I have encountered
a vergence in the Force.
:19:48
A vergence, you say.
:19:50
Located around a person?
:19:52
A boy.
:19:53
His cells have the highest
concentration of midi-chlorians...
:19:56
I have seen in a life-form.
:19:58
It is possible he was conceived
by the midi-chlorians.
