Giving away the ending all depends on what the ending is. Sometimes narrators don't know the whole story; they just carry you to a point near the end where something unexpected happens.

Scene 1

Several establishing shots of Mustafar, taken from RotS or stock footage of volcanoes. OS, in the distance, someone is moaning in pain. Dissolve to Anakin feebly clawing up a lava knoll, moaning louder now.

Anakin (VO): The third degree burns hurt, but not as bad as my pride. Carved up by Ben Kenobi and left like bacon on a skillet. How could I have let myself fall this low? It all started when ...

Scene 1 + a bijillion

Anakin (VO): And now I'm dying on this forsaken cinder of a world.

Palpatine arrives and saves him. Maybe show footage up to his arrival at the surgical center.

Anakin (VO): Looks like I'm not toast after all. But knowing this guy, I'm gonna wish I was.

Fin.
