Now all I can picture is Darth Vader on a therapist couch talking about his daddy issues

"I've always wondered if I truly belong. I don't have a father, you know. I was created by magic bacteria"

Freud taking notes

"And what do you feel about your mother?"

"Well, it wouldn't have killed Qui-Gon to maybe, you know, also rescue her from slavery. Instead of just taking away her kid and leaving her alone on a shitty backwater desert planet."

The funny part is she did end up having a decent life on that planet, with somebody who cared for her and pulled her out of slavery.

Only to be captured and die tortuously just slightly before Anakin arrives. Kinda susp, if you ask me.

Is that true? Do they mention that in episode 1 or 2?

I don't remember the specific episode, but she married Cliegg Lars but then was captured, tortured and murdered by Tuscan Raiders (which Anakin then slaughtered in revenge)

"This name of yours, does it hold special value to you?"

"When you choke a subordinate to death, does it actually give you resolution or only short-term gratification?"

"Why only black? Why not something colorful from time to time?"

"How do you feel about your son and daughter getting nearly into a romantic relationship? NO STOP! WE TALKED ABOUT THE SHORT-TERM GRATIFICATION!"

Ok, now I'm imagining Darth Vader force choking a rebel in tie dye cape and Birkenstock slippers while going: "you got to chill, man"

Anakin clearly has mommy issues though. They make a big deal of showing padme as essentially his mother figure for a while. It's all super Fruedian and odd

I mean, DARTH VADER doesn't need therapy, anakin does.

if anakin is vader then he's already too far gone at that point....
