There is a Jedi Master outside.

Oh, yes, he is going over lightsaber katas. If anything, his skill keeps on improving.

In the semi-dark of a starry night, the display of flashing and dancing lights is quite impressive.

Watch, bother, interrupt?

"Very much. That is why I asked you to convince the younger me. I feel I can push the Council into action."

Dooku nods.

"Very well, then."

Pause.

"One final question, before I retire to review this information further and plan a course of action: Even if we advance the career of Padme Amidala, and if we consider that to be a given course of action, how do we keep Skywalker from her?"

"Their involvement was a mistake I made. I sent Skywalker as her guardian, to Naboo. By preventing that, and placing Anakin with his mother somewhere else, we can avoid him and Padmé getting close."

Dooku pauses momentarily.

"Placing him there temporarily or permanently? He has already been assigned to Master Kenobi as a Padawan, and he would make for a most dangerous apprentice to Palpatine if we were to clearly send him out of the Order."

"We need Master kenobi's help on this. We need to find a safe assignment, where we can observe Anakin, while keeping him away from padmé."

Dooku nods in clear acknowledgement of the clarification.

"Very well. That can be done far more readily, and Kenobi here may be of considerable assistance to us."

"And we might prevent the destruction of the Order."

Dooku nods.

"Indeed. That is definitely our objective, at the least."

Pause.

"Well, I must track down Master Kenobi...I need to discuss this with him, as well as where I might place a student I acquired in the Bar should I go back for a significant amount of time in here."

Mace nods to him. "Fare well, Master Dooku."

"May the Force be with you, too, Master Windu."

And with that, Dooku heads back to the Bar.
