I’ve had this concept in my head for a while, and I thought it would make some interesting character work, where Dooku was the one who murdered Qui-Gon: with Anakin and Obi-Wan watching in shock. Inspired by a flashback scene similar to that of Snooker’s Destroy all Jedi project. I believe this would create a much deeper dynamic for Anakin wanting to have vengeance for Qui-Gon, and strengthen the stakes for his and Dooku’s duel in ROTS. I have a line replacement in mind of Palpatine saying “He murdered Qui-Gon Jinn, and you wanted revenge.”
