Really? I think most of you are missing the point:
1) Sidious knows what is ailing skywalker ( future seeing the death of Padme ) and is just using the story to recruit him, there is no darth plaggy, it's way too convenient of a story and is basically why he ultimately joins the dark side
2) I think sids is actually referring to Anakin when he says he could save others from death, but not himself, because the sith are the only ones who know the Jedi's weaknesses: his thoughts betray him n sids is a master sith reading Anakin's thoughts concerning losing padme and wanting to be all powerful, knowing fully he is the prime candidate to join the sith - he is just not able to fully recruit him without some bs story to use as leverage

Where has this been stated previously in this thread? There is no Darth Plags man!!! It's bs!!! Lol everything is about Anakin being manipulated, but seems everybody missed the point, just listen to how it is totally tailor made to seem to be the solution to his problems, not to mention why would palps even mention anything about the sith to him, he's not a Jedi that Anakin is aware of, so what would be the point in even telling him this tale?

But it was here that they would one day work together the way Sidious and Plagueis had to coax from the dark side its final secrets. In the intervening years he had actually come to appreciate Plagueis for the planner and prophet he had been. Such perilous machinations required two Sith, one to serve as bait for the dark side, the other to be the vessel. Success would grant them the power to harness the full powers of the dark side, and allow them to rule for ten thousand years. - Tarkin, p101

That excerpt from Tarkin is canon though

Other Plagueis references in the book:
The droid resembled a protocol model, except for its several arms, only two of which terminated in what might be considered hands; the rest were devoted to tools of varied purpose, including computer interface and power charge extensions. The droid had once been the property of Sidious's tutor, Plagueis, and had been in Sidious's possession since his former master's death, though in several different guises. - Tarkin, p100
The fact that Sidious held Tarkin in such approbation made the matter all the more wearisome. They had met several years after Sidious - still an apprentice of Darth Plagueis at the time - had been appointed Naboo's representative to the Republic Senate. - Tarkin, p102
Darth Plagueis had once remarked that “the Force can strike back.” The death of a star didn’t necessarily curtail its light, and indeed Sidious could see evidence of that sometimes even in Vader — the barest flicker of persistent light. - Tarkin, p103
