Betrayal
Hey there! The content you are about to read is canon.

Now that the he has killed all the remaining Jedi, Vader calls the still dirt-covered apprentice over to his Star Destroyer so they can talk about how they will CONTROL THE GALAXY. The apprentice meets Vader in the ship's command center. Just as the apprentice is about to hear Vader's secret plan to take over the empire, in walks the Emperor and he realizes that the two of them are scheming to kill him. To cover his tracks, Vader runs his laser sword through the apprentice, spins him around the room before finally tossing him through a window and into the void of space. WORST. STEP. DAD. EVER. Happy with Vader's compliance, the Emperor waddles off.
Now adrift and unable, for some reason, to force push his way back to the ship, a roaming droid picks the apprentice up and takes him to a medical center. Vader is at the medical facility too and is now conciliatory. He tells the apprentice that they cannot kill the Emperor directory. Instead, the apprentice must go out and form a rebel army to create a diversion. Then, while the Emperor is focused on the rebels, the two of them can attack.
So there you go. This is the big plot twist this game was promising. George Lucas has changed the entire way you view the original trilogy. During episodes IV, V, VI Vader was secretly allowing the rebels to build up so he could kill the Emperor himself. This game (since it is cannon) changes my perspective of Vader. I no longer see him as the evil lord but more of a manic depressive, abusive, stage mom.Starwars is really an intergalactic remake of the 1981 film Mommy Dearest. Think about it, Darth Vader adopted the apprentice so that he could advance his career and he dresses the kid in strange clothes. Vader is like the space-aged Joan Crawford.
