Dooku's eyes in this scene alone tell their entire story. His eyes focused in, genuine when he says "Qui Gon always spoke very highly of you". Then the way Dooku looks down to the ground when he says "I could use his help right now", eyes glossy and filled with sadness. It truly was a cry for help. The look of disappointment as he walks away, saddened that Obi Wan was not yet ready to share that moment with him. Obi Wan was simply too young, too immature to understand. Obi Wan will later have to endure a similar grief. Having to walk away from Anakin on Mustafar and again in the Kenobi show, only then would he have had time to reflect on all of his experiences. Qui Gon changed history.

Qui-Gon never fell to the dark side, so the experiences differ. Dooku left because of the rampant corruption of the Republic and the lack of action and neglect the Jedi took to combat it. He saw the Jedi as blind fools, thus why he left in the first place. Obi-Wan made the decision to leave Anikan. He practically gave up on him thinking he couldn’t be saved. The one thing that definitely brings them together was that they felt they lost someone important to them. Both lost Qui-Gon, Obi-Wan lost Anikan.

I think dooku fell out of the light when Palpatine had his padawan killed. I think dooku just longs for his company. Its pretty clear dooku is not as far into the dark as Darth maul, or even as anakin. He's just a frustrated man that got manipulated by Palpatine.

Dooku. A man who foresaw the end result of the Jedi order (becoming a group of enforcers for the Republic), missing a beloved college who helped balance his thoughts and gave great advice in times of hardship, succumbing to the dark side in an attempt to preserve what he thought was the real world. It all feels like a very major foreshadowing of Anakin becoming Vader after trying to do the very same things.

@jacobcollier422310 ай бұрын
Dooku was a political idealist by description, and so naturally was wanting to pull away. He had even maybe started pulling away, but wasn't fully committed to the choice. Qui Gon's death committed him. It kind of parallels how, with Anakin, Ahsoka kept him sane and was truly a partner for him during much of the clone wars. When she left the order, that was one of the big wedges between Anakin and the rest of the order. Things grew from there@@grienardus12

You're right, but I think Obi-Won misinterpreted Dooku's meaning when he said he could use Qui-Gon's help as them joining together because Obi-Won believed Dooku was the Sith Lord the Jedi had been searching for, not knowing there was another in Sidious. That's because Sidious was using Force Clouding to hide himself from the Jedi.

It was, Dooku was still not fully embraced with the dark side in AOTC, he was still conflicted and he really did mean he could use help to come back from the dark side.

The dark side itself not only corrupts and shifts those who embrace it, but everyone who embraces the light. They become so terrified of the dark side, even when someone who embraced it; even a little is pushed away when they are begging for help. Dooku was trapped and needed Obi-Wans help, as he saw Qui-Gon within him, but the dark side blinded Obi-Wan into not helping Dooku, further holding its grasp over him.

Qui-Gon’a death was the key to dark side victory in the PT: 1. Anakin did not have the right master and goes dark side 2.

The jedi are easily blinded by the dark side and become more arrogant

He feels lost without Qui-Gon, and part of him is ashamed he never became a part of his dynamic with Obi-Wan 😔
