Who came up with this idea that Qui-Gon "relaxed" Jar Jar? Jar Jar fainted because he was terrified, not because Qui-Gon did it.
The people who don't like this scene seem to be saying that it's pointless. Well it's not. Qui-Gon, Obi-Wan and Jar Jar had to get from Otah Gunga to Theed Palace. The underwater scene shows them doing that. Are you honestly saying that you would prefer it if they were in Otah Gunga and then it cut to them in Theed Palace? That would be so boring.
The underwater scene was harmless. It was great to look at and was something completly different to what we've seen before. How can that not be a good thing? Star Wars doesn't and shouldn't be very serious all the time.

I said that KJ,
because QGJ said 'relax' toughed Jar Jar and he fainted.
After that OB1 said 'you over did it'
So I thought it was QGJ who let Jar Jar fainted

He just said "relax2 because Jar Jar was freaking out. But Qui-Gon didn't make him faint, it was the journey.
Obi-Wans "we over did it line" has always bothered me because like most people here I don't know what he meant. I always thought he was talking about Jar Jar though. Saying that it was Jar Jar who over did it.

That phrase made me think it was QGJ who did a technique to calm him

The technique is called "being friendly and authorative".
If you were freaking out and Qui-Gon put his hand on your shoulder and told you to relax, wouldn't you feel a lot better knowing that this great Jedi was with you and he was perfectly calm about everything that was going on. It would make me feel better. It wasn't a Jedi trick it was just Qui-Gon being this strong and powerfull Jedi.
And when he said that it did calm Jar Jar down and then he felt ill and said "oh boy". And Obi-Wan then said "he over did it" about Jar Jar I think.

Err... KJ, I'm pretty sure QGJ caused Jar-Jar to faint there. There link is pretty direct, and it also explains Obi-Wan's line.
EDIT: Yup, just checked the script. It says Qui-Gon relaxes Jar0Jar into a coma, and Obi-Wan sees it and says he overdid it.
That settles that...

Send me a copy of the script you have because the one I have doesn't have anything like that in it.
It says "Qui-Gon puts a comforting hand on the Gungan"
So are we meant to beleive that Jedi can make people faint by touching them? If we are then it sucks.

Jar Jar was ill because he was terrified.
If Obi-Wans words are "I think we over did it" then who is he talking about?
If he was talking to Qui-Gon he would have said "I think YOU over did it".

The script on the BTM CD makes it very clear, KJ.
And what the heck else are we meant to think?
The line is 'You overdid it'; he can only be talking to Quio-Gon and can only be referring to what he just did- relax Jar-Jar so much that he fell unconcious.

Yup, I agree with Ush on this one. It IS pretty obvious even from the scene. IMHO OC.
And seeing the entire journey of someone going from A to B isn't very necessary. Just seeing them leave and arrive says exactly the same thing. All that "going" has a term in film making: shoeleather. This scene is just a very expensive and somehwat exciting shoe leather, but still shoe leather. Therefore redundant.
