The Tantive IV landed near the Lars's homestead later that day. Anakin and Obi-Wan met them as they exited the ship and led them into the homestead. Then they sat down and Beru got them refreshment.
"Master Kenobi, Skywalker, what has transpired since last we saw each other?" Yoda asked.
Anakin did most of the talking explaining about his visions and the birth of his children. Yoda was not as surprised by this news as Anakin thought he would be, though Senator Organa was thunderstruck by the news, not of the pregnancy but of the identity of the father. The Jedi were shocked to learn that Palpatine took three younglings from the crèche. They were not as shocked to hear about a beacon instructing all Jedi to return to the Temple. After all the news had been shared, Padmé came out of the bedroom and took an empty seat.
"Padmé! You should be resting," Anakin said.
"Yes, my over-protective husband, but there are decisions to make and I am still a Senator," Padmé said.
"Very well, I know better than to argue with that tone," Anakin said.
"I know what you mean, knight Skywalker. It is a talent all wives have," Bail said.
"Amen to that," Owen said. The husbands joined in laughing at their helplessness in face of their respective wives.
"However, Senator Amidala is right. First I would like to hear the Jedi's opinion on what should be done," Bail said.
"Believe I do that two tasks before us we have, first shut down the return beacon we MUST. Second, I must Face the Emperor I must. Destroy him I will," Yoda said.
"I concur, the Emperor must be destroyed," Obi-Wan said.
"I disagree, Masters," Anakin said.
"Why do you disagree, Anakin?" Obi-Wan asked.
"Simple, Master. If we kill Palpatine, we would be doing the very thing he is accusing us of. We can not arrest him, we have no way of truly disarming him with his powers," Anakin said.
"Besides, half the Senate and all of the courts are his people, Obi-Wan. Like it or not, the Senate made this possible and I doubt we have anywhere near enough votes to overturn this now," Padmé said.
"Votes won't matter now in any case. Palpatine has just put made official what was already going on in fact. The Senate is just an extension of his will," Bail said.
"Exactly. If we kill Palpatine, how will we handle the transition, even with the whole order it would be a challenge. We'd be viewed as villains for doing this," Anakin said.
"What suggest do you, young Skywalker?" Yoda asked.
"We have to shut down the beacon. We should also try to rescue the younglings Palpatine has," Anakin said.
Yoda nodded, "A good plan this is, unfortunately it leaves the Republic in Darkness, and that I cannot condone."
"Yet, Master Yoda you should accept it," Qui-Gon said appearing before the group.
