Meanwhile, on Geonosis, Dooku has a meeting with his prisoner. Obi-Wan reveals that he was tracking a bounty hunter named Jango Fett. Dooku says that there are no bounty hunters that he's aware of on Geonosis, but he has heard of the man he described. Obi-Wan says that he tried to kidnap some senators on Coruscant. And Dooku assures him that he's a man of profit, not politics. What could he possibly want with some measly senators and not some gangsters? Obi-Wan remarks at him, "Someone must've paid him to do it." Dooku then guesses it must've been Deathwatch. But Obi-Wan corrects him and says that,
1. They do the jobs themselves
2. Even if he were a part of Deathwatch, he'd have killed them.
Dooku then tells him that regardless, he's been sentenced to the arena on account of espionage. And that his opponent has an old score to settle with him.
Above Geonosis, Padme's ship approaches a fleet of Kuati Acclamator-class cruisers, dreadnought cruisers, and Corellian CC-6400-class heavy frigates protected by some smaller Corellian Corvettes. They land onboard one of the cruisers as Anakin sees the Republic's new army. About 80% of the forces there are clones. The other 20% being Jedi and regular soldiers from throughout the Republic. Mace then tells Padme that she must stay on the cruiser. She understands.
