| Alternate Dialogue for Revenge of the Sith
(by Jedi Gepper)
ON THE BALCONY AT THE SENATOR'S SWANKY APARTMENT:
Padme: Annie, I want to have our baby back home
on Naboo. We can go to the lake country where no one will know.
I can go early and fix up the baby's room.
[Half-listening stare/smirk from Anakin]
Padme: I know the perfect spot: right by the gardens.
Anakin: Oh, yeah, it's nice there, that garden
by the palace.
Padme: No, I was thinking of the other one.
Anakin: The one on the hill by the dock?
Padme: No, not that one either. You know the spot:
there are lots of trees there.
Anakin: Is that near that art museum?
Padme: Geez, Anakin, do you even pay attention
when we're there? I mean that area with the beautiful purple roses.
Anakin: Oh, yeah, yeah, I got it now. You're talking
about those apartments by the river inlet.
Padme: What the...?
Anakin: Well, what do you expect? The whole planet's
a freakin' garden!
Padme: Oh, just forget it! We'll have it here!
Anakin: In the apartment?
Padme: No! In the city!
Anakin: It's a big city, lady...a planet-size city.
Padme: Blazes, do I have spell everything out for
you?
Anakin: Apparently. Just go back to your hair.
Padme: Fine!
Anakin: Fine!
[Long pause. Padme brushes her hair very slowly.
Anakin thinks hard.]
Anakin: Uh...you are so....beautiful.
Padme: Aw, shut up
