  • What if the Jedi BELIEVED Fives about Order 66? Let's explore the depths of it in this video.
    Anakin and Rex watch Fives rave about a conspiracy against the Jedi. He claims that there are chips planted in the clone's brains to make them obey secret commands. Anakin remains skeptical about it, watching as Fives' tone becomes increasingly unhinged. It doesn't help that he's being accused of trying to assassinate the chancellor.
    Rex though is far less certain. He's been born and raised to obey orders. That was what the Kaminoans and their superiors had told them since they were created. He had never put much thought into it, but as he listened to his friend talk, something clicked.
    What if it was more than just some motto and was meant to be taken literally? Tup was an incredibly independent-minded clone, but his actions on Ringo Vinda didn't seem like him. And if there was one thing this war had taught him, it's that clones were seen as little better than droids. The Kaminoans seemed like the type to try this.
    Rex: General, I think we should believe him.
    Anakin: Shocked. What? Are you out of your mind?
    Rex: It sounds crazy, but he might be onto something. Please.
    Anakin: Sighs. Very well, alright Fives. I don't know anything about this, but I trust Rex. Let us go, and we'll help you look into this.
    Fives look at them, the relief plain on his face and he deactivates the ray shield. At that moment, gunships begin to land outside. Without much time, the three of them grab their weapons and hurry out the back before the Coruscant Guard finds them.
    Their first move is to find someone who can verify Fives' claim, Shaak Ti. Anakin heads back to the temple to contact her while Rex and Fives go into hiding to plan their next move.
    In the Temple, Anakin approaches Shaak Ti privately to discuss the matter regarding Fives. When she inquires about the search for him, she's surprised to learn that Anakin believes there is more to this and asks for her help.
    When she reminds him that Fives had tried to assassinate the chancellor, Anakin bites his lip but says that just because Fives acted like that, it doesn't invalidate his claims. Shaak Ti agrees to help, saying she's pleased with Anakin and knows how difficult it is for him to do this.
    She confirms that she saw the inhibitor chips and saw how Tup's chip had rotted away while Fives had his removed, revealing how different they were.
    With that revelation Shaak Ti smiles and the two leave to meet with Fives and Rex in their hideout. Although they can confirm all the clones have inhibitor chips, they still can't prove what they do and without Fives' chip, they have no way of learning more.
    The captain rubs the back of his head and stands up.
    Rex: What if. What if you were to study my chip?
    Anakin: That's a pretty risky plan there, Rex. We already saw what can go wrong with those chips. It can make you snap like Tup and-
    Fives: And who, sir?
    Anakin: Hesitates. And hurt yourself.
    Rex: It doesn't matter. I already lost a man because of those things. I'm not losing any more of my brothers to them, not if there's a chance for us to figure out what's happening.
    Fives: Well, if that's the plan then we need someone to remove it. And there's only one person I trust.
    A few days later, a ship descends on Kamino where Anakin and C-3PO descend the boarding ramp. The two approach the medical bay where AZI-3 is treating some wounded clones.
    3PO: Master Anakin, I believe if this plan is to succeed, you must smile.
    Anakin: I hate this idea.
    Despite that, he forces a smile and enters the medical bay.
    Anakin: Ahh excuse me, are you AZI-3?
    AZI-3: That is not my official designation, but I have been called that by some of my friends.
    C-3PO: Well then today is your lucky day. Lady Shaak Ti has noted your contributions in learning about the inhibitor chips and decided to reward you with a trip to the best maintenance spa on Coruscant. I have been commanded to escort you.
    AZI-3: Oh how wonderful. I'll finish up here and we can depart immediately.
    The two of them leave with Anakin hanging behind. But before he can leave as well, the doors swing open and Lama Se appears, frowning as he folds his arms together.
    Lama Se: That's the most surprising news. I never knew Shaak Ti cared so much about the droids.
    Anakin: Well, that's the Jedi for you. We care about everyone, unlike some people.
    Lama Se: Indeed, for better and for worse. Is that why a Jedi like you came all the way here just to escort a medical droid?
    Anakin: Perhaps. Those are my orders, I just follow them.
    Lama Se: Well it's my job to question things and I find it questionable why you need to take this droid. Perhaps the chancellor must hear of this?
    Anakin's smile disappears and he clenches his fist.
    Anakin: Don't think you're the only one who has the chancellor's ear. One of my men is dead and another is a fugitive because of those chips. I'd hate to have to remind him of those…defects.
