So episode one has Vader, who is the exact same guy as Maul but his name is Darth Vader instead. His look is the same as Maul.
It is revealed he's a former pupil of Kenobi who turned to the dark side. The jedi council have banned kenobi from further teachings as a result.
He's kind of down on his luck, sent out to the boonies to settle trivial trade disputes by the jedi as a result.
But on one of these trivial missions a larger conspiracy is revealed.
the trade federation have blockaded a small word of naboo over accusations of sheltering clone defectors, which naboo vehemently denies. naboo is invaded. leading this invasion is darth vader and mandalorian shock troops.
kenobi rescues the queen with the help of a refugee clone named Not Jar Jar binks.
they all escape.
Kenobi eventually makes it to the outer rim world where a teenage Anakin lives with his family, including step bro Owen Lars.
He sees Anakin as strong in the force. he tells him of their mission. Owen is skeptical. he thinks he and anakin need to stay behind and help the family run their little spice shipping business. but kenobi sways anakin and he decides to leave. this upsets owen to no end. eventually, owen reluctantly goes with kenobi and company to look after his little bro.
they decide to disguise their leaving by hopping aboard one the families old beat up spice freighter hunks of junk.
Before they leave, they run into darth vader, who is hunting down the queen of naboo.
they venture to coruscant. there kenobi meets his old friend and mentor, not master, qui-gon jinn.
Kenobi sees his chance to redeem himself by taking Anakin before the council to ask them to reconsider their ban on him training jedi. Jinn is skeptical.
Kenobi reveals to the jedi council he has encountered darth vader on tatooine.
The council revisits kenobi's failure with Vader and are incredulous he would think of repeating his mistake with anakin. This sets up conflict between kenobi and the jedi council, who have marked him as reckless and impulsive.
Kenobi is not allowed to train Anakin. Qui-Gon Jinn follows a despondent Kenobi out onto a jedi temple balcony to watch the sunsets.
kenobi breaks the bad news to anakin. owen assures anakin they can always go home and return to farming but anakin is wary. in the senate a debate rages over naboo. bail organa, senator and viceroy of alderaan introduced.
they all decide to go back to naboo. leading the way is anakin and owen as copilots of a vessel with the jedi and entourage onboard.
anakin executes a miraculous hyperspace jump in-between the federation blockade and the planet of naboo.
they land and the fight is on. but it's not three pronged.
everyone goes together. you have a small band of clone refugees, the jedi, and the queens entourage.
anakin is tired of being stuck in the freighter. he decides to take action. he waits until owen nods off under a tree and takes off with the ship. owen wakes in time to see his bro starting take off. he jumps into the ship just as the ship flies off. he thinks anakin is nuts.
they fly in the skies above theed city and begin providing air support for the entourage as they make their way into the city. once inside the hangar, the entourage and the clones go off from the two jedi, kenobi and qui ton as they begin to fight vader.
the queens entourage captures the trade viceroy. the siege is lifted.
vader kills qui gon, kenobi attacks, vader escapes.
over qui gons funeral pyre kenobi quietly assures anakin that he will train him and he will become a jedi.
a massive military parade of troops comes through thees as a going away celebration to fight the mandalores. anakin waves bye to the queen, who smiles. kenobi and anakin take off in their fighters along with owen, who pilots a larger vessel.
begun, this clone war has.
