(Meanwhile, back at Senator Amidala's apartment)
Senator Bail Organa, 45, is not very happy when he walks into Padme's apartment. Anakin is very curious. Of course. He hasn't met Organa yet. But this is his big chance.
Bail: Kenobi!
Obiwan: Oh, why, um, Senator Organa. I wasn't expecting you to come over here.
Bail: Can you explain to me why you're not over at the republic talking with the chancellor?
For the first time after awhile, Obiwan was embarrassed. Of course. He was supposed to have a conversation with the chancellor. But he forgot.
Obiwan: Oh, yes, Senator. Sorry. I stopped here first, and I was busy promising Anakin here to help look out this apartment for Senator Amidala while she has surgery in the hospital...If you excuse me, I have to use the bathroom...But let my Padawan; Anakin, continue this conversation.
Brief moment of silence fills the apartment. Anakin couldn't believe what Obiwan just said as his blue eyes widened with shock...What was he suppose to say?
Anakin: B-But, Master....What do you mean "Continue this conversation"?
Obiwan: I mean it, Anakin.
Watching his master go into the bedroom's bathroom, Anakin groaned as he knew he was left in charge to finish the grumpy Senator off. Facing the slight taller man, Anakin raises an eyebrow.
Anakin: Some of you Senators don't seem too happy talking to the Jedi order all the same.
Bail: (Sigh) Look, son. There are some things going on around here that you don't understand.
Anakin: (Impressed) Wow. That sounds exactly how Master Windu described you.
Bail: (Curious) What do you mean?
Anakin: That your cocky. You act like you are against the Jedi order. Just plain old arrogant.
"Guess he has a point." Bail thinks to himself, before smirking.
Bail: (Impressed) You got truth, son. Where you from?
Anakin: Tatooine.
Bail: (Nods) Alderaan.
From that moment on, Anakin Skywalker and Senator Organa were pals.
