Gunrays betrayal

remember in attack of the clones when dooku is telling obiwan the sith run the senate then he says gunray was betrayed by the sidious, well then why is it in revenge of the sith gunray still takes orders from sidious and what not?

 

Good question.

 

Because, Sidious is the leader of the Separatists. You can't not listen to your leader because you don't like him, especially when he is a Sith Lord.

 

"Joined the Dark Side Dooku has. Lies, deceit, creating mistrust are his ways now."

 

A nice gift basket and an apology can go a long way...

In the end, Gunray is greedy and weak-willed. Sidious and Dooku made an offer that he couldn't refuse, and Gunray served his purpose as a pawn of the Sith.

 

gunray was betrayed by the sidious

?????????????????????????????????????

 

Well, Gunray was in a position he couldn't easily get out of. I'm pretty sure he was bound by a contract, and besides, his life would be on the line even if he wasn't. The Sith aren't to be understanding in such issue.

 

gunray really can't do much about it but get over it whats he gonig to do challange a sith lord. And he still wants power so he's got no chocie but to go along with what sidious sayes

 

Who says Dooku was telling the truth?

 

Lucas said that Anakin made a pact with the Devil (i.e. Sidious). I think Gunray did the same thing.

Gunray felt betrayed perhaps because Sidious was unable to prevent his capture on Naboo at the end of TPM.

 

Perhaps he felt betrayed by Darth Sidious but you also have to consider that after four trials in the Supreme Court, Nute Gunray was still Viceroy of the Trade Federation so possibly a little help from Palpatine/Sidious made things all better for him?

 

"Gunray, I will betray you and send my padawan to kill you. But first, take part in my delicious chocolates and gifts i send you!"

 

Dukoo only told the Separatists about Sidious in between AOTC and ROTS - too late for Gunray to back out after there was a war. However Gunray already knew, (I think), that the war was an illusion to destroy the Jedi to begin with - maybe even that Sidious was Palps - due to "Sidious promised a reward! He promised that we would be left in peace!" as well as Palps asking him to deactivate all the droids in the galaxy - and Anakin's line "You fought a war to destroy the Jedi!" However, both Dukoo and Palps had already decided to kill all the Separatists by the end of it.
