Anakin:"there's a big race tomorrow on Boonta Eve you could enter our pod"

Anakin:"watto doesn't know we've built it"

Anakin turns to Qui Gon.

Anakin:"you could make him think it was yours... and get him to let me pilot it for you"

Shmi:"I don't want you to race it's awful I die every time watto makes you do it"

Anakin:"but, mom, I love it the prize money would more than pay for the parts they need"

Shmi:"Anakin"

Qui Gon:"your mother's right.. is there anyone friendly to the Republic who can help us?"

Shmi:"no"

Y/n:"mom, you say the biggest problem in this universe is nobody helps each other... let me go to the race i'm older and more experienced than anakin"

Padmé:"I'm sure Qui Gon doesn't want to put your son in danger"

Padmé:"we'll find some other way"

Shmi:"no.. there is no other way"

Shmi:"I may not like it but he can help you"

Shmi:"he was meant to help you"

Y/n looks up the head of the table where Qui Gon stares off distantly.
