Note 15:
Nute Gunray and Rune Haako,

You fools! You let the queen get away!

Idiots. I knew what I was talking about. I was talking about the PLANET and not your ship. You had told me in the previous letter that you believed that the Jedi had gotten down on the planet. I was saying that I didn't want them to get off Naboo. Don't ever try to think that you're smarter than me, because you're not!

Yes, I make mistakes when I'm tired, and so does everyone. The planet thing in my last letter was not a mistake, as I have just explained to you.

I can point out mistakes in your letter too. You wrote "tried" instead of "tired." You also wrote "pass" instead of "passed." Don't try to think that you are superior to me or you will find yourselves very dead. Is that clear?

Now do things right and destroy the ship with your blockade. I want them DEAD. You understand? If Queen Amidala responds to my last letter, I will know that you failed. Don't let them leave the blockade.

Yes, I KNOW that she didn't sign the treaty, which was another failure on your part. Yes. Kill people on Naboo. Please….it will help my cause.

If you let the ship escape your blockade, then YES, I WILL send my apprentice to you, depending on what Amidala does. No, my apprentice won't kill you if you make a mistake. I need you. After your use in my plans is over, then yes, if you mess up my apprentice will kill you!

You better not let them get passed the blockade!

Darth Sidious
