Scene 1
Setting: The Imperial Office on Coruscant. The room is dark and stark, as is the throne, a black, metalic metalic chair on a raised platform. Emperor Palpatine wears only long robes.
Palpatine: I've never kept my religion a secret. In fact, my apprentice brings it up at meetings. Do you see me stopping him? Nobody can discuss power without him talking about how much more powerful is The Force.
Palpatine: I don't push this in law, because I know that Theocracy isn't the way to go. But, I really do think the Dark Side has a lot to offer the people of the Empire. People need to feel their emotions, to process them and to use them to become stronger and freer, individually and as a unified people.
Camera pans to see a woman holding what could be a pen up: Feel their emotions, like hatred?
Palpatine: That's just one emotion, and unfairly maligned I might add. Hate is an essential emotion to a complex emotional landscape that needs to be explored and contextualized.
A light blinks on the right arm-rest of the throne.
Palpatine: Oh, we're out of time. I've got this appointment with some scientists who say they've made some important discoveries. I hope you have enough for your article.
Woman: Yes, thank you, Emperor.
Palpatine: I look forward to reading it.
The door opens. A man and a woman walk in.
The woman nods to them as she passes, the door closing behind her.
Palpatine: Nice to meet you two. I hear you've discovered some kind of new fuel?
