Me too. It's actually going a little TOO fast, we need to recap and isolate the ideas we've generated for each Episode into separate lists.


I really think if we're focusing on the Qui-Gon aspect of the story (which I think is a good idea) then we need to include something (at least one scene) with his mentor Dooku. But, I think it's important to first see Dooku in a good context, as a good Jedi - which will make his turn in Episode II all the more of a betrayal. There has to be some way to do it. Has to be.

More later.

But Dukoo has so little to do with the story of Qui Gonn in Episode I. Can you see a way to fit him in that doesn't slow down the story? Putting him the council with no lines or something and then taking out the reference that he and Obi Wan have "never met?" If we have to do a cul-de-sac scene to get Dukoo into Episode I, it will undermine the "story building" work that making this Qui Gonn's story is supposed to accomplish. Ironic, I know. What are we trying to do with Dukoo?
