hwp THE PHANTOM MENACE
"A long time ago in a galaxy far, far away...."
A vast sea of stars serves as the backdrop for the MAIN TITLE,
followed by a ROLL UP, which crawls up into infinity.
"EPISODE 1 THE PHANTOM MENACE"
"Turmoil has engulfed the Galactic Republic. The taxation of
trade routes to outlaying star systems is in dispute. Hoping
to resolve the matter with a blockade of deadly battleships,
the greedy Trade Federation has stopped all shipping to the
small planet of Naboo.
While the congress of the Republic endlessly debates this
alarming chain of events, the Supreme Chancellor has secretly
dispatched two Jedi Knights, the guardians of peace and
justice in the galaxy, to settle the conflict....."
PAN DOWN to reveal a small space cruiser heading TOWARD CAMERA
at great speed. PAN with the cruiser as it heads towardthe
beautiful green planet of Naboo, which is surrounded by
hundreds of Trade Federation battleships.
INT. REPUBLIC CRUISER - COCKPIT
In the cockpit of the cruise, the CAPTAIN and PILOT maneuver
closer to one of the battleships.
QUI-GON (O.S.)
Captain.
The Captain turns to an unseen figure sitting behind her.
CAPTAIN
Yes, sir?
QUI-GON (O.S.)
Tell them we wish to board at once.
CAPTAIN
Yes, sir.
The CAPTAIN looks to her view screen, where NUTE GUNRAY, a
Neimoidian trade viceroy, waits for a reply.
CAPTAIN
With all due respect for the Trade
Federation, the Ambassadors for the
Supreme Chancellor wish to board
immediately.
NUTE
Yes, yes, of coarse...ahhh...as you
know, our blockade is perfectly legal,
and wed be happy to recieve the
Ambassador...Happy to.
The screen goes black. Out the cockpit window, the sinister
battleship looms ever closer.
EXT. FEDERATION BATTLESHIP - DOCKING BAY - SPACE (FX)
The small space cruiser docks in the enormous main bay of
the Federation battleship.
INT. FEDERATION BATTLESHIP - DOCKING BAY - SPACE
A PROTOCOL DROID, TC-14, waits at the door to the docking
bay. Two WORKER DROIDS, PK-4 and EG-9 watch.
PK-4
They must be important if the Viceroy
sent one of those useless protocol
gearheads to greet them.
The door opens, and the Republic cruiser can be seen in the
docking bay. Two darkly robed figures are greeted by TC-14.
TC-14
Im TC-14 at your service. This way,
please.
They move off down the hallway.
EG-9
A Republic cruiser! Thats
trouble...dont you think?
PK-4
Im not made to think.
INT. FEDERATION BATTLESHIP - CONFERENCE ROOM
A door slides open, and the two cloaked shapes are led PAST
CAMERA into the formal conference room by TC-14.
TC-14
I hope you honoured sirs with the
most comfortable here. My master
will be with you shortly.
The droid bows before OBI-WAN KENOBI and QUI- GON JINN. He
backs out the door and it closes. The JEDI lower their hoods
and look out a large window at the lush green planet of Naboo.
QUI-GON sixty years old, has long white hair in a ponytail.
He is tall and striking, with blue eyes. OBI-WAN is twenty
five, with very short brown hair, pale skin, and blue eyes.
Several exotic, bird-like creatures SING in a cage near the
door.
OBI-WAN
I have a bad feeling about this.
QUI-GON
I dont sense anything.
OBI-WAN
Its not about the mission, Master,
its somethging...elsewhere...elusive.
QUI-GON
Dont center on your anxiety, Obi-
Wan. Keep your concentration here
and now where it belongs.
OBI-WAN
Master Yoda says I should be mindful
of the future...
QUI-GON
...but not at the expense of the
moment. Be mindful of the living
Force, my young Padawan.
OBI-WAN
Yes, Master...how do you think the
trade viceroy will deal with the
chancellors demands?
QUI-GON
These Federation types are cowards.
The negotiations will be short.
INT. FEDERATION BATTLESHIP - BRIDGE
NUTE GUNRAY and DAULTRAY DOFINE stand, stunned, before TC-
14.
NUTE
(shaken)
What?!? What did you say?
TC-14
The Ambassadors are Jedi Knights, I
believe.
DOFINE
I knew it! They were sent to force a
settlement, eh. Blind me, were done
for!
NUTE
Stay calm? Ill wager the Senate
isnt aware of the Supreme
Chancellors moves here. Go. Distract
them until I can contact Lord Sidious.
DOFINE
Are you brain dead? Im not going in
there with two Jedi! Send the droid.
Dofine turns to TC-14, who lets out a squeaky sigh.
INT. FEDERATION BATTLESHIP - CONFERENCE ROOM
OBI-WAN
Is it their nature to make us wait
this long?
The door to the conference room slides open, and TC-14 enters
with a tray of drinks and food.
QUI-GON
No. I sense an unusual amount of
fear for something as trivial as
this dispute.
Obi-Wan takes a drink.
INT. FEDERATION BATTLESHIP - BRIDGE
Nute, Dofine, and Rune Haako are before the hologram of Darth
Sidious, a robed figure whose face is obscured by a hood.
DOFINE
This scheme of yours has failed,
Lord Sidious. The blockade is
finished! We dare not go against
these Jedi.
DARTH SIDIOUS
You seem more worried about the Jedi
than you are of me, Dofine. I am
amused.. Viceroy!
Nute, looking very nervous, steps forward.
NUTE
Yes, My lord.
