Alright.  Rough Cut of Episode 1 Complete, and beginning of Episode 2 has started. 

Episode 1 picks up in the middle of the Maul battle, new CGI Yoda gives Obi-wan HIS student, Anakin, and at the Funural, Mace questions if Obi-wan is ready for his own apprentice.

CUT TO EPISODE 2

Begins with Obi-wan and Anakin in front of the council after completing a mission.  Mission was completed, but the Council isn't happy with the WAY it was completed.  Apparently Anakin is a bit of a show off and a little too aggressive.

CUT TO ANAKIN and OBI in ELEVATOR

Rather than investigating an assanination plot, Anakin is taking Obi-wan to reveal that he intends to marry Padme.  After discussion, being the good friend spoken of in the OT, Obi Wan reluctantly supports the decision while still knowing the Council would never approve.

Palpatine knows of Anakins intentions and already has his plan in motion to turn him to the dark side...hence the FIRST assassination attempt while Padme is sleeping. 

Anakin and Padme then leave to be married  immediately at Palpatine's suggeston, while Obi-Wan is sent by Yoda and Mace to secretly investigate the clone army ordered by the council.  It is common knowledge that the council ordered the creation of an army, but the Jedi suspect something isn't right. 

 

That is the story I am building from, or at least will attempt to build from....we'll see what develops.
