[ Rex's expression falls at the realization that Maul is right about his General's relationship with the Chancellor. He takes a slow breath.

General Skywalker had been the Counsel's first choice to visit the Chancellor's office when he was on Coruscant, and he threw Palpatine's name around in some political settings. Rex had never asked how close the General was to Palpatine, but it makes sense to call them friends. For Anakin, the revelation will be an even deeper betrayal. He can already imagine the shock and anger to follow.

Rex can agree with going to Kenobi instead. He gives him a nod. ]

I should record what you have to say, and I'll urge General Kenobi to have you moved under a different name, strictly need to know. I don't think there are many places he would deem secure enough to hold someone with your power, but I'll do what I can.

I need to pull some files from reports that will help prove this is all true, but I will bring General Kenobi here as fast as I can. I'll have one of my own men take over watch here.

[ He's about ready to run out the door, every minute precious now, but he has one hesitation. ]

I'm surprised you're willing to help. Were you only silent during the trial because he was there?
