reacts differently after Mace Windu is killed.
Palpatine increased the intensity of his Force lightning, and flung Mace Windu out the window. His face twisted into a parody of a smile. "Power! Unlimited power!" he declared.
"Yes," came the surprising reply from Anakin Skywalker. "It is."
Then suddenly Palpatine found himself run through by a blue lightsaber. He managed to croak out, "Why?"
Anakin's eyes blazed fiery yellow, but his voice was cold. "It's the way of the Sith."
As Palpatine died, Anakin heard a voice behind him. "Well done, Lord Vader."
Vader turned around and sneered at his fellow Sith Lord. "Don't patronize me, Lord Tyranus."
