Sidious was faking being beaten by Mace. Sidious knew that Anakin would come so he made it look like Mace was gonna kill him. Sidious knew that Anakin seeing a Jedi master suposedly assassanating his mentor would turn him to the darkside.
It was obvious he was faking to me..the way he was watching Anakin's reactions..and finally when Anakin did assist, Sidious had more than enough power to finish Mace off.
i think mace beat palp.....theres arguments both ways...but during their whole fight, mace had the better of him...things just went pear shaped when anakin came along...
how did sidious get his saber back btw? mace kicked it out the window

I didn't see it either, but that doesn't mean it didn't happen. I never see Obi-Wan take a dump in all 6 movies, but I feel pretty certain he did HUNDREDS of times during the course of the saga!!
Were you guys watching the movie? I know I was, and it was pretty blatantly obvious that Mace legitimately beat Sidious. As for the whole "he had more than enough energy to force lightning mace out the window"- that would probably have something to do with the fact that Anakin held Mace up for a couple minutes to debate. It wouldn't have really mattered how energetic he was at that point had he been dead 5 minutes prior like he should have been.
Palps got this ass handed to him by Mace...and went scurrying away as fast as possible...FACT.
The force lightening struggle...Palpy was playing it big time...I don't think it took everything out of him as he still had so much "POWER....UNLIMITED POWER!" afterwards...and he gives a satisfying *sigh* after "Mace Window" meets his maker.
i am suprised to see this many people say sids was faking his loss
don't let the interpration of the author of the movie book cloud your mind or the fact that your a sids fan. You watch the movie and it is incredibley clear mace won. Remember the fight. Anikin is not even there yet and mace has him on the ground light saber facing him. His lightning can't even save him and he severley deforms his face even trying to use it against mace. Hes lucky Mace didn't bring anikin, otherwise it would not have even been half of a contest. If mace would have brought him anikin would have seen for himself who was the agresser. Mace and Anikin together would have used Sids as a ping pong ball if he would have tried to step, as it was he lost horribley to mace anyway.
