Young Anakin is alone in the streets. He wants to leave Tatooine so much, there is nothing left for him there. While walking in the streets, he sees a tv propaganda spot to join the Republican Air Force. The spot consists of X-Wing flying with the Force theme in media res (which mean the characters in the movie HEAR the Force theme cue used in the tv spot). Anakin is convinced: he’s going to enroll.

Republican officer: What’s your name kid?
Young Anakin: I’m a person, and my name is Anakin.
Republican officer: Ok kiddo. Why do you want to enroll in the Republican Academy?
Young Anakin: I have the dream to walk in the sky, sir.
Republican officer: Walk in the sky, really? Ok kiddo… have a last name?
Young Anakin: No sir. I have no last name, only my dreams.
Republican officer: Hum… ok then, young Anakin… Skywalker. Welcome in the Republican Air Force.

(yeah, too bad Disney and Kasdan didn’t make the PT, it would have been sooooooooo much better… 😦)
