If this has been dicussed before please lock. I was watching ROTS & towards the end Yoda,Bail,& Obi-Wan are deciding the fate of the children. When they discuss "the boy" all Yoda says is with his family on Tattoine, or somthing to that affect. I never actually heard anyone say Anakin or Vader. In that conversation. Just wondering. Thanks peace

I would assume at some point Yoda would have told him. It would only make sense.

Bail had to know or else why would the Jedi even trouble with hiding the babies??? Why would the Empire be concerned with Padme's children in general???

He had to have known, of course. But who cares, he ends up dead anyway.

Way to throw Bail under the bus Squishy. At least give the man some credit for outliving most everyone else who opposed the Emperor. Not to mention raising a daughter who helped destory the Empire. Not to mention keeping his planet intact throughout 18 years of Empire Tyranny.

And so it is.

Yeah, Bail knows. He probably suspected the love affair with Padme way back when Anakin arrived and went to see Padme behind the columns in the Senate office hallway. He probably looked to see where Anakin went in a shot not shown on screen.

He did suspect the love affair with Anakin. In the novel Dark Lord, he muses that it's a "secret out in the open" or something like that. What he doesn't know is that Darth Vader is Anakin Skywalker. Until this book. wink

so wait Obi wan and Yoda didn't tell Bail that Anakin was the father of Padme's twins while they were all discussing how they must be hidden from the sith? No, I think Bail knew.

Thanks, Commander. happy

Not only did he suspect the affair, Padme's pregnancy was a "secret out in the open" in the circle of folks like Bail, Mon Mothma, etc. and most senators. He was told who the twins father is.

Also don't forget that in the deleted scenes that Padme asks if she could tell a Jedi she was "close to" about the Delegation of 2000 and the Senators seem to give each other looks so I agree they knew and if not I don't think Yoda and Obi-Wan would let some one go away with a baby in danger without letting them know the danger or risk.

I agree to say that it was obvious that Bail knew who was the real father... Therefore, why bodering to hide the twins...???

um because they didn't want Sids and Vader to find out. As Obi Wan, said "the emperor knew as I did that if Anakin Skywalker had any offspring, they would be a threat to him" yada yada etc...

So youre basically saying Bail, Mon Mothma, etc. and most senators knew who the father was before Anakin did. grin Yeah, the father is sometimes the last to know. tongue

Yes, I now the whole story... but, why involving Bail in this plot is the main topic for this thread... It is obvious that Bail knew who was their father... It is just an answer for the topic of "did Bail know who's Leia's father...???"
