The Jedi Council grows suspicious as Palpatine moves to control their order.

Palpatine manipulates public sentiment against the Jedi, setting the stage for his final gambit. Anakin stands at a crossroads, torn between his Jedi training and his desperate love for Padmé. As Darth Sidious prepares to destroy the Republic and birth the Empire, Anakin must choose between the light and dark sides of the Force.
