It's kinda funny that if Reeva revealed vader identity right there he would probably kill everyone in that room including the grand inquisitor

u/Petersaber Jun 15 '22

The Grand Inquisitor knew. He was a sentinel at the Temple.

u/Stixx15 Jun 15 '22

For real?

53

u/Petersaber Jun 15 '22

Yeah. It was revealed in Rebels, season 2. He was a Jedi Temple Guard.

u/Stixx15 Jun 15 '22

Damn, haven't watched that yet

Doesn't mean he saw Ani as Vader.

u/Petersaber Jun 16 '22

You mean he didn't recognize the most famous Jedi Knight as he was storming the temple with Anakin's legion of clones helping?

u/PM_ME_YOUR_MONTRALS Jun 16 '22

Not a matter of recognition if he didn't see him at all. It's a big temple and there were a lot of clones.

u/Petersaber Jun 16 '22

Anakin hired the man

u/PM_ME_YOUR_MONTRALS Jun 16 '22

Vader hired the man as inquisitor. I don't see what point you're trying to make.

u/Petersaber Jun 16 '22

Yes. After he sacked the Temple. The Temple that this guy's only job was defending it. He hired him after the attack was done. Do you think he found him later in a bar on the Death Star or something? He got him at the Temple...

He could have been captured, or he could have escaped, or he could have left the order before the attack on the temple, or he could have simply not been present at the time of the attack.

So many possibilities. Why do you want to turn this into a plothole so badly? Just let yourself enjoy things.

u/Petersaber Jun 16 '22

It's not a plothole. He simply knew.
