What does Chancellor Palpatine do when Dooku calls him in a tight moment?

Say Sidious is in an office meeting or something and Dooku calls. Does he just excuse himself, run into the closet, throw on a cloak, and answer?

Any special ringtones for when Dooku is calling so he doesn't answer it during an "inconvenient" moment?

Always the small details that matter ya know.

I guess Palpatine just murders his guests, dumps the corpses, mindwipes the guards and that's it 🙂

What if the guests are jedi?

This is a good question. I assume that their are specific holonet channels that are reserved for certain persons, and the line between Dooku and Sidious is likely coded. Also, since Palpatine is a master manipulator, I'm sure he can schedule things around Dooku calls.

The same way any double agent/infiltrator keeps their communications secret :/

I think it's pretty funny how Sidious puts in the effort to constantly change out of uniform just to make a call—as if he's embarrassed to be seen as the Chancellor when talking to Dooku.

Because Sheev Palpatine is the illusion, not the reality.

Yeah, Sidious wants to appear to Dooku as his master and a Sith Lord.

And I get the impression that considering Sidious replies to Dooku's communication instantly and fully robed that they are prearranged.

Still it's funny that he does. Does he fly out to Coruscant's industrial sector every time? Or does he really go hide in the coat closet?

He does have farsight, by the way.

Well as a senator he communicated with Gunray from his HQ there, so most probably, I doubt he'd risk an interruption.

On the topic of Sidious' garb though, you've got to remember that Dooku is not the only one he's communicated with. Grievous, Ventress and potentially other disciples of Dooku have reported to him. There is also the possibility, however unlikely, that his communication could be intercepted, or eavesdropped on, so it's only fitting he keeps his identity concealed and maintains his Sith persona at all times.
