7. Note 7 Watto

Note 7
To my slave Anakin,

You still cough sometimes. I don't want to hear any coughing. Do you understand me?

Whether I beat your mom or not is my business, not yours. She is a slave just as you are, and if I want to beat her I can.

What was wrong with you that you were sick? You better be better boy!!! Next time you tell me you're sick, I'll beat YOU AND YOUR MOTHER, you got that?

Now that's enough work for today. You can go home….and tomorrow you have the day off. I have a business meeting I must attend and I have no one to baby-sit you while I'm gone.

Ah…and don't think it is for you that I am giving you time off. It is because tomorrow is a big pod race and I'm going to be watching it. I'm going to bet everything on Sebulba.

Do not get sick on me ever again, you understand?

Well I doubt your new friends will be able to come up with the money necessary to buy the parts….and soon they will become so desperate that they will have to sell the ship to us. I'll get a brand new ship!

I'll beat your mother if I want to.

Your Master,
Watto
