Has General Grievous ever thought about betraying Count Dooku?

Or the separatists forces? Not for the republic, but just for himself.

He should have. He could have killed Palps when he kidnapped him tbh. Not betray Dooku tho Dooku was needed.

No he couldn't, Palpatine would've fried him if he tried to turn

Did he even know Palpatine was Sidious?

No.

I am not sure, I am 54% sure on no, can we see evidence please

no he didn't if you go by anything outside of the films all he ever saw of Sidious was the holograms; it explicitly says in ROTS novel also I think that Grievous wasn't privy to that knowledge

So is anyone gonna answer my question?

I don't think there is anything saying Grievous didn't know Palps was Sidious. And for OP no he never has besides this one video game where I think he fights Dooku but fails to overthrow him but Dooku forgives

No, it would be completely obvious to anyone who's read RotS that Grievous has no idea.

"My lord, I must express once more my objections-"

Dooku turned. From his commanding height, he stared down at the blue-scanned holoimage of Invisible Hand's commander. "Your objections have been noted already, General. Leave the Jedi to me."

"But driving them to you also sends them directly toward the Chancellor himself. Why does he remain on this ship at all? He should be hidden. He should be guarded. We should have had him outsystem hours ago!"

"Matters are so," Count Dooku said, "because Lord Sidious wishes them so; should you desire to press your objections, please feel at liberty to take them up with him."

"I, ah, don't believe that will be necessary . . .”

Grievous dropped his head even lower. "I will not fail you again, my Master. Kenobi will die."

"See to it."

"Master? If I may trouble you with boldness-why did you not let me kill Chancellor Palpatine? We may never get a better chance."

"The time was not yet ripe. Patience, my general. The end of the war is near, and victory is certain."

"Even with the loss of Count Dooku?"

"Dooku was not lost, he was sacrificed-a strategic sacrifice, as one offers up a piece in dejarik: to draw the opponent into a fatal blunder."

i kind of doubt it actually. when he was saved by the seperatists, he owed them his life. you r welcome.

I think he knew his place.

Grievous certainly did not always respect Dooku(SoD made that much clear), but I don't think he would have ever been stupid enough to openly betray Dooku. That would not have ended well for the good General, and he knew it.

Good question, interesting

I can tell you are a slight troll... I may be mistaken... Please have longer answers.

Bump

According to Son of Dathomir #4, General Greivous went with Darth Sidious to retrieve Count Dooku from Mother Talzin and Darth Maul. Didn’t Greivous see Sidious electrocute Count Dooku? This proves that he knew that Palpatine was a Sith Lord.

doesnt mean he saw his face necessarily, its a big hood and Sidious keeps his face well hidden; anyways ROTS novel explicitly says that he doesnt know Sidious' alternate

No. He was completely loyal to the Separatist Cause.

Grievous is by definition a massive tool -- an even bigger one than Maul. And unlike the latter, he didn't have 2 brain cells to rub together to where he could strategically kill Dooku.

His best bet was to let Talzin kill him, but he cucked for his literal savior.

Technically he has met Sidious, but he didn't know that he was Palpatine.
