In <em>Episode II<\/em>, Anakin travels to Tatooine after being haunted by disturbing nightmares of his mother. While he&#8217;s there, Anakin will not only find his mother but learn some more about his family, leaving him a changed man. The anger, fear, and aggression that leads to his eventual downfall will take root here, setting the scene for the tragic events of <em>Episode III<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>FAMILY REUNION<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/starwarz.com\/tbone\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/08\/478.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright\" title=\"478\" src=\"https:\/\/starwarz.com\/tbone\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/08\/478-150x150.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" \/><\/a>Owen Lars knew he had a stepbrother out there somewhere and that this mysterious stepbrother might one day return Tatooine in search of his mother. Owen probably thought this little family reunion would occur under better circumstances.<\/p>\n<p>There&#8217;s plenty of photo evidence of some deleted footage involving the Lars homestead that we first saw in <em>Episode IV<\/em>. In some of the photos, Owen is standing during the scene where Anakin learns of Shmi&#8217;s situation. In the finished film, Owen never gets up from his chair.<\/p>\n<p>While I can&#8217;t say for sure, I believe the photo of Padm\u00e9 shot against bluescreen is from the same scene. In the book <em><a href=\"http:\/\/www.amazon.com\/exec\/obidos\/ISBN=0345431286\/tbonefendersstar\" target=\"_blank\">Mythmaking<\/a><\/em>, this photo is found in the chapter dealing with pick-up shooting, long after principal photography wrapped. My educated guess is that someone decided another shot of Padm\u00e9 in the Lars dining area was required; probably the part where she sits in the chair, since there&#8217;s a blue chair under her.<\/p>\n<p><strong>IMAGES<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/starwarz.com\/tbone\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/08\/477.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-thumbnail wp-image-965\" title=\"477\" src=\"https:\/\/starwarz.com\/tbone\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/08\/477-150x150.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" srcset=\"https:\/\/starwarz.com\/tbone\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/08\/477-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/starwarz.com\/tbone\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/08\/477-125x125.jpg 125w, https:\/\/starwarz.com\/tbone\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/08\/477-45x45.jpg 45w, https:\/\/starwarz.com\/tbone\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/08\/477-230x230.jpg 230w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 150px) 100vw, 150px\" \/><\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/starwarz.com\/tbone\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/08\/479.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-thumbnail wp-image-967\" title=\"479\" src=\"https:\/\/starwarz.com\/tbone\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/08\/479-150x150.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" srcset=\"https:\/\/starwarz.com\/tbone\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/08\/479-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/starwarz.com\/tbone\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/08\/479-125x125.jpg 125w, https:\/\/starwarz.com\/tbone\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/08\/479-45x45.jpg 45w, https:\/\/starwarz.com\/tbone\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/08\/479-230x230.jpg 230w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 150px) 100vw, 150px\" \/><\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/starwarz.com\/tbone\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/08\/480.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-thumbnail wp-image-968\" title=\"480\" src=\"https:\/\/starwarz.com\/tbone\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/08\/480-150x150.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" srcset=\"https:\/\/starwarz.com\/tbone\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/08\/480-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/starwarz.com\/tbone\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/08\/480-125x125.jpg 125w, https:\/\/starwarz.com\/tbone\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/08\/480-45x45.jpg 45w, https:\/\/starwarz.com\/tbone\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/08\/480-230x230.jpg 230w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 150px) 100vw, 150px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>BERU WHITESUN<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/starwarz.com\/tbone\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/08\/430.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright\" title=\"430\" src=\"https:\/\/starwarz.com\/tbone\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/08\/430-150x150.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" \/><\/a>For those keeping score, Beru Whitesun ended up with only one line of dialogue spoken on screen: <em>&#8220;Hello.&#8221;<\/em> She didn&#8217;t have many lines to begin with, even in the finished script, but it seems that most of them were edited out for whatever reason. In one of these deleted scenes, Beru has a short conversation with Padm\u00e9 while helping her out in the kitchen. It&#8217;s nothing more than small talk with a little female bonding thrown in, but fun to read. Here&#8217;s the excerpt from an early draft of <em>Episode II<\/em>:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><strong>INT TATOOINE MOISTURE FARM, KITCHEN &#8211; MORNING<\/strong><br \/>\n<em>Padm\u00e9 prepares some food for Anakin.

They act as bookends to yet another deleted scene where C-3PO is given his &#8220;coverings&#8221; and\u00a0 is released into Padm\u00e9&#8217;s care. The scene starts with Beru heading outside to draw water from one of the moisture vaporators. Then, the scene with Padm\u00e9, C-3PO, and Owen Lars takes place, ending with the voice-over of Beru from outside. She has apparently spotted Anakin returning to the homestead after the search for his mother.<\/p>\n<p>The scene starts with:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><strong>EXT.

He doesn&#8217;t even ask permission. Quite rude for a would-be Jedi Knight, but not for a would-be Sith, I suppose. The originally scripted truth is, however, that Owen Lars originally offered his speeder to Anakin. We just never saw it on screen. Here&#8217;s the relevant excerpt from the 2nd draft of <em>Episode II<\/em>:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><strong>EXT. TATOOINE, HOMESTEAD, MOISTURE FARM &#8211; LATE DAY<\/strong><br \/>\n<em>ANAKIN stands looking across the desert. PADM\u00c9 comes running out of the homestead after him, followed by OWEN. ANAKIN turns to PADM\u00c9.<\/em><\/p>\n<p align=\"center\"><strong>ANAKIN<\/strong><br \/>\nYou are going to have to stay here.<br \/>\nThese are good people, Padm\u00e9. You&#8217;ll be safe.<\/p>\n<p align=\"center\"><strong>OWEN<\/strong><br \/>\nTake my speeder bike.<\/p>\n<p align=\"center\"><strong>PADM\u00c9<\/strong><br \/>\nAnakin&#8230;<\/p>\n<p><em>PADM\u00c9 hugs him.

My good friend <a href=\"http:\/\/www.rossiters.com\/swo\" target=\"_blank\">Greg Rossiter<\/a> once attended a seminar where a short clip of the originally filmed scene was shown. He told me that the scene was indeed shot with Owen there but they digitally removed him during editing. Here&#8217;s what Greg had to say:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><em> The shot of Padm\u00e9 watching as Anakin speeds off originally had Owen in it too, but he was split-screened out of the image. When I saw it, it was silent and it was a master shot without close-ups, so I couldn&#8217;t tell if Owen was saying anything at that point. It was without effects too &#8211; kind of funny at the end to see Anakin get on the bike and just sit there going nowhere. <\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>That could explain the presence of a long &#8220;shadow&#8221; in this scene that everyone thought was just a crafty addition. Was it just to cover up some of the editing?<\/p>\n<p>According to the finished script, after Anakin left the homestead, he stopped at a Jawa campground to ask for directions or information about the Tusken Raiders. Then while following the trail, he was supposed to come across a gruesome scene where he sees some dead farmers, obviously mauled by the vile Sandpeople.<\/p>\n<p>Here&#8217;s the excerpt from <em><a href=\"http:\/\/www.amazon.com\/exec\/obidos\/ISBN=0345431251\/tbonefendersstar\" target=\"_blank\">The Art of Attack of the Clones<\/a><\/em>:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><strong>106 EXT.

In <em>Episode I<\/em>, the quirky protocol droid was very &#8220;naked&#8221; (and embarrassed) the whole film. For <em>Episode II<\/em>, it was originally decided that the droid would remain that way for part of the film. In the script, when Anakin and Padm\u00e9 arrive on Tatooine, C-3PO is described as <em>&#8220;still lacking an outer covering.&#8221;\u00a0 <\/em>In some of the <em>Episode II<\/em> documentary footage, Anthony Daniels can be seen operating the cumbersome C-3PO puppet, proving that the scenes were indeed filmed this way. Later on, it was decided that Shmi Skywalker took it upon herself to complete C-3PO during the ten years that Anakin was away. Therefore, in the finished film when Anakin and Padm\u00e9 show up, they find a completely covered C-3PO greeting them in the desert.<\/p>\n<p>According to the second draft of the script, when Anakin took off to find his mother, he left Padm\u00e9 behind with the Lars family without much to do. During that time, Padm\u00e9 got re-acquainted with C-3PO in the garage and, after spotting a box of old coverings, decided to dress him up. Owen then shows up and &#8220;releases&#8221; C-3PO into Padm\u00e9&#8217;s care, claiming Shmi would have wanted it that way. This subplot consisted of two scenes.<\/p>\n<p>In the published script, the subplot (combined into one scene) was rewritten without mention Owen or the coverings (since he&#8217;d be already dressed in this version), but the scene still ended up being deleted, despite the re-write. This seemed a bit strange to me because C-3PO leaves Tatooine without any real explanation. One could assume that the droid was always Anakin&#8217;s to begin with, but in the end it was deemed not necessary to explain all this on screen.<\/p>\n<p>Here&#8217;s the first excerpt from the 2nd draft of <em>Episode II<\/em>:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><strong>EXT.

This is because when <em>Episode\u00a0 II<\/em> was released there were <em>two<\/em> versions in theaters (not counting the IMAX version). There was the regular print that most people saw but there was also a fully digital print\u00a0 made available to theaters with digital projection systems. This digital print was used as the master for the DVD version so most of the changes remained intact. They did, however, make a few additional changes just for the DVD.<\/p>\n<p>One of those minor changes happens during Anakin&#8217;s &#8220;meltdown&#8221; scene on Tatooine after he slaughtered the Sandpeople who took his mother. He breaks down and confesses what he did to a sympathetic (but slightly freaked out) Padm\u00e9 . The DVD (but not the digital version used in theaters) includes a couple of extra lines of dialogue.
