INT. FEDERATION BATTLESHIP - DOCKING BAY - SPACE

A PROTOCOL DROID, TC-14, waits at the door to the docking bay. Two WORKER
DROIDS, PK-4 and EG-9 watch.

PK-4 : They must be important if the Viceroy sent one of those useless protocol
gearheads to greet them.

The door opens, and the Republic cruiser can be seen in the docking bay. Two
darkly robed figures are greeted by TC-14.

TC-14 : I'm TC-14 at your service. This way, please.

They move off down the hallway.

EG-9 : A Republic cruiser! That's trouble...don't you think?
PR-4 : I'm not made to think.

INT. FEDERATION BATTLESHIP - CONFERENCE ROOM

A door slides open, and the two cloaked shapes are led PAST CAMERA into the
formal conference room by TC-14.

TC-14 : I hope you honoured sirs with the most comfortable here. My master will
be with you shortly.

The droid bows before OBI-WAN KENOBI and QUI- GON JINN. He backs out the door
and it closes. The JEDI lower their hoods and look out a large window at the
lush green planet of Naboo. QUI-GON sixty years old, has long white hair in a
ponytail. He is tall and striking, with blue eyes. OBI-WAN is twenty five, with
very short brown hair, pale skin, and blue eyes. Several exotic, bird-like
creatures SING in a cage near the door.

OBI-WAN : I have a bad feeling about this.
QUI-GON : I don't sense anything.
OBI-WAN : It's not about the mission, Master, it's
somethging...elsewhere...elusive.
QUI-GON : Don't center on your anxiety, Obi-Wan. Keep your concentration here
and now where it belongs.
OBI-WAN : Master Yoda says I should be mindful of the future...
QUI-GON : .....but not at the expense of the moment. Be mindful of the living
Force, my young Padawan.
OBI-WAN : Yes, Master...how do you think the trade viceroy will deal with the
chancellor's demands?
QUI-GON : These Federation types are cowards. The negotiations will be short.

INT. FEDERATION BATTLESHIP - BRIDGE

NUTE GUNRAY and DAULTRAY DOFINE stand, stunned, before TC-14.
