Yasmine visited Anakin the day the trial was to commence again.
"How is Luke?" he asked her.
"Well on the way to recovery. He will be present when the last witness is questioned and when the verdict is given."
"What does he think he's doing? He should remain in the med lab until he's fully healed!"
"I guess you don't know your son very well. He's stubborn."
"I know where he gets that from. Tell me, who has Katynion got as his last witness?"
"A handmaiden, I think."
"Whom?"
"I don't know. He's a little sketchy on the details. He doesn't want me to know for some reason."
"Has he told you who she served?"
"A queen from Naboo. I've forgotten her name."
"Amidala?"
"Yes, that's it. What's all this about?"
"He's going to ask about what I did to my wife."
"And you've got a plan to counter this?"
"Yes. Ask about my childhood. Normally, it is the childhood that scopes their future. My childhood shaped who I am."
"What was your childhood like? I know your mother was a slave."
"So was I. I wasn't freed until I was nine and a half."
"We maybe able to use that."
"Now there is only one thing left to find out. That is to find out who this handmaiden is."
