[Panel 8]
Vader and Padme: WHAT?!

[Panel 9]
Padme: Why are my babies in a jail cell?

[Panel 10]
Nanny Droid: They chose violence. 

[Panel 12]
Padme: What?

[Panel 13]
Nanny Droid: The children chose violence in an attempt for me to call the parental units so you would return early.

[Panel 14]
Padme: UGH. Of course they did.

Vader: Kind of impressive . . .

[Panel 15]
Vader: Guess we should go get them.

Leia: He's probably got cavities!

[Panel 4]

Luke: How can you breathe so well? Daddy needs a mask.

[Panel 5]
Twins: Do you take bacta baths? Why do you walk with cane? Do you have metal legs? Why are your eyes yellow? Are they dirty? Do you just not take baths? Is that why you're so smelly? Do you eat solid foods? Daddy can't. Why is your head have wrinkles? 

[Panel 6]
Droid: Dinner is ready, Your Majesty.

Twins: Why do you wear all black? Is it your favorite color? Daddy's favorite color is black and red. Is yellow your favorite color? Is that why your teeth and eyes are yellow? Do you have any lightsabers? Daddy says we're too little for lightsabers and we have to wait until we're older.
