I welcome you as a servant of the people, but I am troubled by the false rumors that brought you here.
Mandalore would never turn against the Republic.
The Duchess Satine values peace more than her own life.
I'm aware of the Duchess' views.
Master Kenobi, Mandalore's violent past is behind us.
All of our warriors were exiled to our moon, Concordia.
They died out years ago.
Not everyone on Mandalore believes that our commitment to peace is a sign of progress.
There is a group that calls itself Death Watch.
I imagine these are the renegades you're looking for.
They idolize violence and the warrior ways of the past.
There are those among us, certain officials who are working to root out these criminals.
It has been an ongoing investigation.
How widespread is this Death Watch movement?
It's hardly a movement.
It's a small group of hooligans who choose to vandalize public places, nothing more.
I do not understand why the arrival of this Jedi doesn't upset you.
You promised to support the Death Watch forces so we could overthrow the Duchess Satine and her weak peace-loving government.
And I intend to keep my promise.
But how?
If the Republic interferes now, Death Watch will not be able to take over the planet.
Consider: once the Senate orders peacekeeping troops to Mandalore, the people will be surrounded by a military presence.
Most distasteful.
They will rebel.
And rally to Death Watch.
Our insurgency will grow stronger.
And Duchess Satine shall fall.
***Satine i Kenobi przylatujący na księżyc Mandalory
Duchess Satine, you are most welcome.
Thank you, Governor Vizsla.
May I present master Obi-Wan Kenobi, representing the Jedi Council.
Governor Vizsla is one of the officials I spoke of.
He has been working to find the members of the Death Watch.
I take it you've heard the rumors about Satine, about how she's supposedly leading Mandalore into an alliance with the Separatists.
I am here on a diplomatic mission under the protection of Duchess Satine.
We do not recognize her rule.
***Pre Vizsla ujawniający swe prawdziwie-Mandaloriańskie sympatie.
For generations, my ancestors fought proudly as warriors against the Jedi. Now, that woman tarnishes the very name Mandalorian. Defend her, if you will.
(Pre Vizsla rzuca Kenobiemu miecz, po czym wyciąga swój)
This lightsaber was stolen from your Jedi Temple by my ancestors during the fall of the Old Republic. Since then, many Jedi have died upon its blade. Prepare yourself to join them.
Prime Minister.
You found the Death Watch armies, then?
They are preparing for battle.
But if they attack, it would strengthen the people's resolve not to join the Death Watch movement.
They will never be strong enough to take over Mandalore without the will of the people.
Not if the Republic has a military presence here.
Their occupation will turn the Death Watch from terrorists to liberators in the eyes of the people.
All troops will stand down. All troops will stand down.
Unacceptable!
You promised us we would reclaim Mandalore from these weak-willed cowards.
I will order my men to attack.
And if you do, you'll hold the planet for perhaps a day.
Without the backing of my forces or your people,
your revolution will be over before it begins.
A neophyte such as you wouldn't know these things, but I do.
I have other ways to accomplish our goals.
