A DOZEN CLONE TROOPERS stand guard at the entrance of the Jedi Temple. Suddenly there is a flash of a lightsaber, a flurry of confusion, and all of the Clone Troopers are dead on the floor. YODA and OBI-WAN stand in the middle of the carnage.

Y ODA: Dismantle the coded signal quickly. That group back there, soon discovered will be.

P ALPATINE: . . . and the Jedi Rebellion has been foiled.
B AIL O RGANA: I was held up. What’s happening?
P ADMÉ: The Chancellor has been elaborating on a plot by the Jedi, to overthrow the Senate.
B AIL O RGANA: That’s not true!
P ADMÉ: He’s been presenting evidence all afternoon.
B AIL O RGANA: And the Senate will go along with it, just like they always do.
P ALPATINE: The remaining Jedi will be hunted down and defeated.

177 (133) INT. CORUSCANT—JEDI TEMPLE—HALLWAY—SUNSET
YODA and OBI-WAN make their way through the Temple, avoiding the HUNDREDS OF CLONE TROOPERS. They use the Force to distract the CLONES when they can.
YODA and OBI-WAN walk through the ruins of the Temple until they come across the bodies of some students.
O BI- W AN: Not even the younglings survived.
Y ODA: Killed not by clones, this Padawan. By a lightsaber, he was.
O BI- W AN: . . . Who?? Who could have done this?

ANAKIN ignites his lightsaber, NUTE and the OTHERS panic. The DROIDS at the controls and the GUARDS grab their weapons, but it is too late. They are cut down in a flash. The Separatists bang on the doors, and NUTE and RUNE HAAKO flee under a table. ANAKIN, stone-faced, moves through the room like the grim reaper. Bodies drop everywhere. SCREAMS are cut short as the head of the Banking Clan dies.
