akin's engines that links the Pod to his engines.
ANAKIN struggles to keep control of the little Pod. It whips
about wildly.
As the Pod swings near the broken engine strap, ANAKIN grabs
for it.
Finally, he catches the strap and manages to unhook it to
the Pod.
SEBULBA cuts the engine of OBITOKI with his side exhaust,
and the racer crashes with a cloud of dust. A THIRD RACER,
HABBA, flie into the cloud of dust and crashes into OBITOKI.
ANAKIN rounds a corner and heads into the cloud of smoke. He
hits a part of one of the engines but regains control.
FODE/BEED (O.S.)
B :At the start of the third and
final lap, Sebulba is in the lead,
closely followed by Skywalker...
ANAKIN finally catches up with SEBULBA, and runs neck and
neck over the rough terrain. JAR JAR, QUI-GON, SHMI, and
PADME all SCREAM s ANAKIN ccoms through the arena. The lights
in the tower indicate that this is the third and last lap.
WATTO begins to worry.
SEBULBA uses his side exhaust port to try to cut through
Anakin's engines.
ANAKIN manages to avoid having his engine disabled but is
forced off course.
FODE/BEED (O.S.)
B : Skywalker is forced onto the
service ramp!
A : Oh noah!
On a tight corner, ANAKIN dives to the inside and takes the
lead.
FODE/BEED (O.S.)
B : Amazing... a controlled thrust
and he's back on course! What a move!
SEBULBA is furious. He stay's right on Anakin's tail, crowding
him and pushing him through the turns.
SEBULBA pushes ANAKIN harder, and the young boy has a
difficult tcom keeping control. One of the parts on Anakin's
engines begins to shake loose. ANAKIN sees it and switches
over to an auxiliary system. While he is trying to accomplish
this maneuver, SEBULBA races past him.
ANAKIN tries to get around SEBULBA, to no avail. Every move
ANAKIN makes, SEBULBA is able to block.
Finally, ANAKIN fakes a move into the inside as he usually
does, then tries to go around SEBULBA on the outside. They
race sid by side down the final stretch of the track.
FODE/BEED (O.S.)
B : He's catching Sebulba.
A : Inkabunga.
(Incredible!)
SEBULBA veers toward ANAKIN and bangs into his Pod. He crashes
into ANAKIN over and over. The young boy struggles to maintain
control as the steering rods on the two Pods beccom hooked
together. SEBULBA laughs at ANAKIN.
FODE/BEED (O.S.)
B : That little human being is out
of his mind.
A : Punda tah punda!
(They're neck and neck!)
B : They're side by side!
A : Bongo du bongu!
(Shoulder to shoulder!)
As they head for the final stretch, ANAKIN fights to unlock
the steering rods by trying to pull away from SEBULBA. The
strain on the steering rod is trcomndous. Suddenly, ANAKIN's
steering arm breaks, and his Pos starts spinning.
The release of tension sends SEBULBA into an ancient statue.
One engine EXPLODES, then the other. SEBULBA skids through
the fire-balls, blackened, but unhurt. He slides to a smoking
stop, gets out of his racer, and throws what's left of a
shifter arm on the ground. Suddenly he realizes his pants
are on fire, and he struggles to put them out. ANAKIN flies
through the EXPLOSION as the crowd stands, CHERRING. PADME
and JAR JAR jump up and down with excicomnt, PADME screaming
for joy. ARTOO and KITSTER whistle hysterically. QUI-GON and
SHMI smile. ANAKIN races over the finish line, the winner.
INT. MOS ESPA - ARENA ANNOUNCERS BOX - DAY (FX)
The two-headed announcer excitedly calls the finish.
FODE/BEED
B : It's Skywalker! The crowd are
going nuts! Oh Ah Oh Ah (rock head
in tandem with partner)
EXT. MOS ESPA - ARENA - DAY
As ANAKIN stops the Podracer, KISTER turns up, and they
embrace. Hundreds of SPECTATORS join them and put ANAKIN on
their shoulders, marching off, CHEERING AND CHANTING. Darth
Maul's PROBE DROIDS move through the crowd.
INT. MOS ESPA - ARENA - PRIVATE BOX - DAY
Several ALIENS leave Watto's box, laughing and counting their
money. WATTO sees QUI-GON standing in the doorway.
WATTO
You! You swindledcom! You knew the
boy was going to win! Scomhow you
knew it! I lost everything.
WATTO flies up to QUI-GON and puts his face right up against
QUI-GON's.
QUI-GON simply smiles.
QUI-GON
Whenever you gamble, my freind,
eventually you'll lose. Bring the
parts to the main hanger. I'll ccom
by your shop later so you can release
the boy.
WATTO
You can't have him! It wasn't a fair
bet!
QUI-GON
Would you like to discuss it with
the Hutts...I'm sure they can settle
this.
WATTO
No, no! I want no more of your tricks!
Take him!
The SITH PROBE DROID watches with great interest.
EXT. MOS ESPA - ARENA - MAIN HANGER - DAY
The Main Hanger is almost deserted as RACERS depart.
INT. MOS ESPA - ARENA - MAIN HANGER - DAY
JAR JAR gives ANAKIN a great hug, then PADME gives him a
hug, then SHMI.
ANAKIN
Ah, gee...enough of this...
SHMI
It's so wonderful, Annie. You have
brought hope to those who have none.
I'm so very proud of you...
PADME
We owe you everything.
ANAKIN
Just feeling this good was worth it.
In the background, QUI-GON has harnessed the EOPIES to
containers full of parts.
QUI-GON
Pacom. Jar Jar, let's go, we've got
to get these parts back to the ship.
The GROUP walks over to QUI-GON and the EOPIES.
PADME climbs on behind QUI-GON. JAR JAR swings up onto the
second EOPIE, only to slwly slide off the other side. ARTOO
whistles. ANAKIN and SHMI wave as they ride off.
QUI-GON
I'll return the eopies by midday.
EXT. TATOOINE - DESERT - NABOO SPACECRAFT - DAY
ARTOO cruises ahead of QUI-GON and PADME, who are riding one
of the EOPIES; JAR JAR ridses the other. They stop in front
of the sleek Naboo spacecraft.
OBI-WAN ccoms out of the ship and joins them.
QUI-GON
Start getting this hyperdrive
generator installed. I'm going
back...scom unfinished business. I
won't be long.
OBI-WAN
Why do I sense we've picked up another
pathetic life form...?
QUI-GON
It's the boy who's responsible for
getting those parts.
On a hill far overlooking the Naboo spacecraft, the SITH
PROBE DROID turns and speeds away.
EXT. TATOOINE - STREET - SLAVE QUARTERS - DAY
ANAKIN and A GREEDO are rolling around on the floor, fighting.
About A DOZEN OR SO KIDS are standing around them, yelling.
Suddenly, a long shadow is cast over the TWO BOYS; they stop
fighting and look up. QUI-GOMN is towering above them. KITSTER
is with them.
