This is a great thread Jkozzy i also had a question involving Palps, since there was all this discussion in the past as to whether they were the same person or no, i wondered how i knew from the start of ep 1 that they were one and the same, like i said i have no clue how i new this but i do remember KNOWING as soon as we saw then senator palpatine that he was Darth Sidious, Is the name sidious ever mentioned in the OT? or was i just going off the Senator Palpatine/Emperor Palpatine connection?
