55 - EXT. THEED, RESIDENTIAL AREA, SIDE STREET - AFTERNOON PEOPLE are passing through the little street, OLD MEN are sunning themselves, WOMEN are gossiping, KIDS are playing.
ANAKIN, PADMÉ and ARTOO turn onto a side street. ANAKIN is back in his Jedi robes. PADMÉ wears a beautiful simple dress. She stops, beaming. PADMÉ There's my house! PADMÉ starts forward; ANAKIN hangs back. PADMÉ (continuing) What? Don't say you're shy! ANAKIN (untruthfully) No, but I...
Suddenly, there are shouts from two little girls, RYOO (age 6) and POOJA (age 4). They come running toward PADMÉ. PADMÉ Ryoo!! Pooja!! PADMÉ scoops up RYOO and POOJA and hugs them. PADMÉ (cont’d) Go wake up Artoo. RYOO & POOJA Artoo!!!
As they see the droid, they hug him. ARTOO WHISTLES and BEEPS. PADMÉ laughs. ANAKIN and PADMÉ go on toward the house. The GIRLS stay and play with ARTOO. 56 - INT. PADMÉ'S PARENTS' HOUSE, MAIN ROOM - AFTERNOON SOLA, PADMÉ'S beautiful older sister, comes in from the kitchen carrying a big bowl of food. SOLA (over her shoulder) They're eating over at Jev Narran's later, Mom. They just had a snack. They'll be fine.
SOLA puts the bowl down on the table, where ANAKIN, PADMÉ and RUWEE NABERRIE (PADMÉ's father) are coming into the room. SOLA (cont’d) Padmé! (hugging her) You’re late. Mom was worried. PADMÉ We walked. Anakin, this is my sister, Sola.
SOLA Hello, Anakin. ANAKIN Hello. SOLA sits, as JOBAL NABERRIE (PADMÉ's mother) comes in with a heaped bowl of steaming food. PADMÉ ...and this is my mother.  JOBAL You're just in time for dinner. I hope you're hungry, Anakin. ANAKIN A little. PADMÉ He's being polite, Mom. We're starving. RUWEE (grinning) You came to the right place at the right time. Sit down, son.  EVERYONE sits and starts passing food. JOBAL (to PADMÉ) Honey, it's so good to see you safe. We were so worried. PADMÉ gives JOBAL a dirty look. RUWEE smiles as he watches.
RUWEE Dear... JOBAL I know, I know... but I had to say it. Now it's done. SOLA Well, this is exciting! Do you know, Anakin, you're the first boyfriend my sister's ever brought home?
PADMÉ (rolls her eyes) Sola!! He isn't my boyfriend! He's a Jedi assigned by the Senate to protect me. JOBAL A bodyguard?! Oh, Padmé! They didn't tell us it was that serious! PADMÉ It's not, Mom, I promise. (glances at Jobal) Anyway, Anakin's a friend. I've known him for years. Remember that little boy who was with the Jedi during the blockade crisis? They nod. PADMÉ (continuing) He grew up. JOBAL Honey, when are you going to settle down? Haven't you had enough of that life? I certainly have! PADMÉ Mom, I'm not in any danger. RUWEE (to Anakin) Is she? ANAKIN ...Yes... I'm afraid she is. PADMÉ (quickly) But not much. 57 - EXT. PADMÉ'S PARENTS' GARDEN - AFTERNOON ANAKIN and RUWEE are walking. RUWEE Sometimes I wish I'd traveled more... but I must say, I'm happy here. ANAKIN Padmé tells me you teach at the university?  RUWEE (nodding) Yes, and before that, I was a builder. I also worked for the Refugee Relief Movement when I was very young. Additional images: here, here 58 - INT. PADMÉ'S PARENTS' HOUSE, MAIN ROOM - AFTERNOON PADMÉ, SOLA and JOBAL are clearing the table. SOLA Why haven't you told us about him? PADMÉ What's there to talk about? He's just a boy.  SOLA A boy? Have you seen the way he looks at you? PADMÉ Sola - stop it! SOLA It's obvious he has feelings for you. Are you saying, little baby sister, that you haven't noticed? PADMÉ I'm not your baby sister, Sola. Anakin and I are friends... our relationship is strictly professional. (to Jobal) Mom, would you tell her to stop it? SOLA (laughing) Well, maybe you haven't noticed the way he looks at you. I think you're afraid to. PADMÉ Cut it out. JOBAL Sola's just concerned... we all are.
PADMÉ Oh, Mom, you're impossible. What I'm doing is important. JOBAL You've done your service, Padmé. It's time you had a life of your own. You're missing so much! 59 - EXT. PADMÉ'S PARENTS' GARDEN - AFTERNOON ANAKIN and RUWEE are walking in the garden. RUWEE stops and faces ANAKIN directly. RUWEE Now tell me, son. How serious is this thing? How much danger is my daughter really in? ANAKIN There have been two attempts on her life. Chances are there'll be more. My Master is tracking down the assassins. I'm sure he'll find out who they are. This situation, won't last long.  RUWEE I don't want anything to happen to her. ANAKIN I don't either. 60 - INT. PADMÉ'S PARENTS' HOUSE, PADMÉ'S ROOM - AFTERNOON  PADMÉ throws some things into a bag. PADMÉ Don't worry, this won't take long. ANAKIN I just want to get there before dark. PADMÉ goes on packing. ANAKIN looks around the room. ANAKIN (continuing) You still live at home. PADMÉ I move around so much, I've never had a place of my own. Official residences have no warmth. I feel good here. I feel at home. ANAKIN I never had a real home. Home was always where my Mom was. ANAKIN picks up a framed hologram. ANAKIN (continuing) Is this you? The hologram shows PADMÉ at age seven or eight surrounded by forty or fifty little green creatures. She is holding one in her arms. They are all smiling hugely.  PADMÉ That was when I went with the relief group to Shadda-Bi-Boran. Their sun was imploding, and the planet was dying. I was helping to relocate the children. See that little one I'm holding? His name was N'a-kee-tula, which means sweetheart. He was so full of life. All those kids were. They were never able to adapt... to live off their native planet. ANAKIN picks up another hologram. It shows PADMÉ at age ten or eleven. She is wearing official robes and standing between two robed legislators. Her expression is severe. PADMÉ (continuing) My first day as an Apprentice Legislator. Notice the difference? PADMÉ pulls a face. ANAKIN grins. She continues packing. ANAKIN sets the two holograms down side by side - the beaming little girl, and the stern, unsmiling adolescent. EXT. CORUSCANT, LANDING PLATFORM - LATE AFTERNOON and INT. JEDI TEMPLE, YODA'S QUARTERS - LATE AFTERNOON (scenes removed from the 3rd draft screenplay for continuity)
