Naboo Battle Outfit
Information about the Costume |
| On her return to Nabooo, Padme dons battle dress. In the assault on her own palace, she fights alongside her troops and the Jedi allies in order to reach the throne room and confront the droid invaders. Braving onslaughts of laser bolts, Padme is quick to return fire without qualms: She knows the battle droids are not living foes.
In Naboo's most deperate hour, Padme reveals her secret identity to the Gungan ruler Boss Nass. She knows that only a clear token of good faith such as this could win over the stubborn Gungan. Padme judges that by capturing the Neimoidian leaders she can end the invasion and bring her enemies to justice for their crimes. Her determined presence among her own troops inspires them to success against the odds. Sabe remains disguised as the Queen to the end, providing Padme with a critical advantage at the last minute. |

| Suddenly, PADME steps forward.
PADME : Your Honor... ARTOO whistles a quiet "uh oh." BOSS NASS : Whosa dis? PADME : I am Queen Amidala (points to Queen) This is my decoy...my protection...my loyal bodyguard. ANAKIN is stunned. OBI-WAN and QUI-GON give each other a knowing look. PADME : (Cont'd) ...I am sorry for my deception, but under the circumstances it has become necessary to protect myself. Although we do not always agree, Your Honor, our two great societies have always lived in peace...until now. The Trade Federation has destroyed all that we have worked so hard to build. You are in hiding, my people are in camps. If we do not act quickly, all will be lost forever...I ask you to help us...no, I beg you to help us. PADME drops to her knees and prostrates herself before BOSS NASS. There is a gasp from CAPTAIN PANAKA, HIS TROOPS, and the HANDMAIDENS. PADME : (Cont'd) We are your humble servants...our fate is in your hands. Slowly, CAPTAIN PANAKA and his TROOPS bow down before the GUNGAN COUNCIL. Then the HANDMAIDENS, ANAKIN, and finally the JEDI. The GUNGANS are puzzled by this. BOSS NASS begins to laugh. BOSS NASS : Yousa no tinken yousa greater den da Gungans.. Mesa like dis. Maybe wesa bein friends. FOUR SPEEDERS pull up to the GROUP. CAPTAIN PANAKA and a DOZEN OR SO GUARDS and PILOT pile out and join the group. PADME : What is the situation? CAPT. PANAKA : Almost everyone's in camps. A few hundred police and guards have formed an underground movement. I brought as many of the keaders as I could. The Federation Army's also much larger than we thought, and much stronger. Your Highness, this is a battle I do not think we can win. PADME : The battle is a diversion. The Gungans must draw theDroid Army away from the cities. We can enter the city using the secret passages on the waterfall side. Once we get to the main entrance, Captain Pnaka will create a diversion, so that we can enter the palace and capture the Viceroy. Without the Viceroy, they will be lost and confused. QUI-GON and OBI-WAN look on with interest. PADME : (Cont'd) What do you think, Master Jedi? QUI-GON : The Viceroy will be well guarded. CAPT. PANAKA : The difficulty's getting into the throne room. Once we're inside, we shouldn't have a problem. QUI-GON : There is a possibility with this diversion many Gungans will be killed. BOSS NASS : Wesa ready to do are-sa part. JAR JAR smiles a very worried and sheepish grin. ANAKIN watches with interest, as does ARTOO. PADME : We have a plan which should immobilize the Droid Army. We will send what pilots we have to knock out the Droid control ship which is orbiting the planet. If we can get past their rayshields, we can sever communication and their droids will be helpless. QUI-GON : A well-conceived plan. However, there's great risk. The weapons on your fighters may not penetrate the shields on the control ship. OBI-WAN : And there's an even bigger danger. If the Vicroy escapes, Your Highness, he will return with another droid army. PADME : That is why we must not fail to get to the Viceroy. Everything depends on it. EXT. THEED - CENTRAL PLAZA - DAY PADME, followed by EIRTAE, OBI-WAN, QUI-GON, ANAKIN, and ARTOO, stealthily makes her way toward the entrance to the main hanger. They are followed by about TWENTY NABOO GUARDS, PILOTS, and TROOPS. They stop, and PADME uses a small red laser light to signal across the plaza to CAPTAIN PANAKA, RABE and TWENTY OTHER ASSORTED NABOO TROOPS. They signal back. QUI-GON leans over to ANAKIN. INT. THEED - CENTRAL HANGER - DAY ALARMS ARE SOUNDING a PADME, the JEDI, ANAKIN, EIRTAE, and PADME's TROOPS rush into the hanger. BATTLE DROIDS begin firing at them as they run for cover. ANAKIN runs under a Naboo fighter. The JEDI deflect bolts aimed at PADME back onto the BATTLE DROIDS, causing them to EXPLODE. INT. THEED - CENTRAL HANGER - DAY ANAKIN hides behind one of the Naboo fighters, ducking as large bolts whiz past and EXPLODE near him. PADME and the TWO JEDI destroy BATTLE DROIDS right and left. The QUEEN'S TROOPS and EIRTAE also blast away at the DROIDS. PADME signals to her pilots. PADME : Get to your ships! INT. THEED - CENTRAL HANGER - DAY CAPTAIN PANAKA, SABE and NABOO TROOPS rush into the hanger and overwlm the few remaining BATTLE DROIDS. PADME, OBI-WAN, and QUI-GON join forces with CAPTAIN PANAKA. PADME : My guess is the Viceroy is in the throne room. They head for the exit. As they are about to go through the door, suddenly everyone scatters, revealing DARTH MAUL standing in the doorway. CAPTAIN PANAKA, PADME, and HER TROOPS back away. QUI-GON and OBI-WAN step forward. QUI-GON : (Cont'd) We'' handle this... The TWO JEDI take off their capes and ignite their laser swords. DARTH MAUL takes off his cape, and ignites his laser sword. Both ends of the sword light up. At the far end of the hanger, SIX WHEEL DROIDS roll in and transform into their battle position. ARTOO calls ANAKIN's attention to the DROIDS. The JEDI begin to fight the Sith Lord. PADME: Will take the long way. INT. THEED - PALACE - HALLWAY - DAY PADME, CAPTAIN PANAKA, EIRTAE, SABE and THIER TROOPS are trapped in a hallway by BATTLE DROIDS. PADME : We don't have time for this, Captain. CAPT. PANAKA : Let's try the outside stairway. CAPTAIN PANAKA blasts a hole in the window, and they make their way outside the building onto a ledge about six stories above a raging waterfall. SABE, EIRTAE and about TWENTY NABOO SOLDIERS stay in the hallway to hold off the BATTLE DROIDS. EXT. THEED - PALACE - OVER WATERFALL - DAY PADME, CAPTAIN PANAKA, and about TEN OTHER NABOO SOLDIERS are lined up along the edge. They have pulled small attachments out of their pistols and fire at a ledge about four stories above them. Thin cables shoot out of the pistols and are embedded into the ledge. PADME, CAPTAIN PANAKA, and the OTHERS begin to climb up the wall. INT. THEED - PALACE - HALLWAY TO THRONE ROOM A window in the hallway blasts apart. PADME, CAPTAIN PANAKA, and HER SOLDIERS climb into the hallway. They head for the door to the throne roo. Suddenly, two DESTROYER DROIDS skitter in front of the door. PADME turns around and sees TWO MORE appear at the far end of the hallway, trapping them in the middle. PADME throws down her pistol and turns to CAPTAIN PANAKA. PADME : Throw down your weapons. They win this round. CAPT. PANAKA : But we can't.... PADME : Captain, I said throw down your weapons. CAPTAIN PANAKA and HIS MEN throw down their weapons. INT. THED - PALACE THRONE ROOM - DAY PADME, CAPTAIN PANAKA, and SIX OTHER OFFICERS are brought by TEN BATTLE DROIDS before NUTE and RUNE and FOUR NEIMOIDIAN COUNCIL MEMBERS. NUTE : Your little insurrection is at an end, Your Highness. Time for you to sign the treaty...and end this pointless debate in the Senate. SADBE dressed like the Queen appears in the doorway with SEVERAL TROOPS. Several destroyed battle droids can be seen in the distance. SABE : I will not be signing any treaty, Viceroy, because you've lost! NUTE and THE OTHERS are stunned to see a SECOND QUEEN. NUTE yells at the TEN GUARDS in the room. NUTE : After her! This one is a decoy! SIX OF THE DROIDS rush out of the throne room after SABE. NUTE turns to PADME. NUTE : (Cont'd) Your Queen will not get away with this. PADME slumps down on her throne and immediately hits a security button that opens a panel in her desk opposite CAPTAIN PANAKA. PADME grabs two pistols, tosses one of the to CAPTAIN PANAKA and one to an OFFICER. She takes a third pistol and BLASTS the last of the BATTLE DROIDS. The OFFICERS rush to the door control panel as PADME hits the switch to close the door. The OFFICER at the door jams the controls. CAPTAIN PANAKA throws more pistols to the OTHER GUARDS. The NEIMODIANS are confused and afraid. PADME : Now, Viceroy, this is the end of your occupation here. |
