At the lobby of the Senate tower, some delegates assemble. They are senators from the worlds Palpatine mentioned in his office. They exchange their views on possibility of upcoming war as they walk out. They're about to reach a cab station nearby when suddenly, a Mandalorian points a gun at them and orders them to get in the taxi. They obey him as he throws out the cabbie and takes off.
Meanwhile, at the restaurant, the trio continue to exchange banter. Obi-Wan leaves momentarily to take a call. Anakin then notices he and Padme are alone. He tries to confess his love to her but then suddenly, Obi-Wan rushes back. Telling Anakin that some senators have been kidnapped and that their craft will head past their location any moment. Anakin says that they gotta go. They then get in an airspeeder.
Anakin asks what kind of craft they're looking for. But then Obi-Wan notices an air taxi exceeding the speed limit. "That one!"
AUTHOR'S NOTE: You might be wondering why Jango's going after these random senators and not Padme. I decided to cut that plot thread out due to how convoluted the plot was in the actual Attack of the Clones. But fear not, Anakin and Padme will get their alone time later on.
