I could always pare down to a skeleton crew and take most of the spectators along for the ride. I'll place video monitors throughout the compartments so everyone on board can watch. I'll also setup an external camera and lighting on the outside of the hull pointed at the muzzle door of whatever tube we decide to shoot him out of. Then we can broadcast a split frame video via the flying antennae (yes, I have one of those) to an excursion boat on the surface for the rest of the spectators. And K8 can throw the firing key herself. Impulsing (firing) a torpedo tube makes for a very satisfying experience (and one hell of a noise). Yeah, there is that.

Tell you what, instead of being lord high executioner, I'll place my sub at Our Leader's disposal if She cares to use it as the execution platform. It would be be a rather unique experience for all I think. That would be at a depth of 800 ft since it’s extremely difficult to fly a submarine through the air.

It's up to Our Leader. Do you mean 800 ft up or down? Either would be interesting. Kirk M – I’d say you’d have to get in line for that job. It’s up to Our Leader. Do you mean 800 ft up or down?

I think there was an ulterior motive behind all this.

Anyway, he has fallen so it’s just a case of hanging around until the war-crimes tribunals start.

You went up against K8amidala, daughter of Grandad and by doing so you lost before the war had even begun. By being too blinded with the lust for power you failed to see the obvious and like all other would be dictators and tyrants, this will be your undoing. I stab at your nether regions with my light saber, I do! K8: It is only my duty to serve you, dear Lady. Maxi:
