'Star Wars' Recap of Episodes 1-6: Highlights From Every Movie so Far Padmé later dies after giving birth to twins Luke and Leia Skywalker, who are split up and sent to grow up far away from each other for their own safety. However, Vader actually survives and gets a cool robotic suit, which he initially uses to watch the now-Emperor Palpatine direct construction of the first Death Star. He and former mentor Obi-Wan fight near some lava, and Obi-Wan thinks that he's killed Vader by cutting off his legs and letting him burn up. Darth Vader and his heavily pregnant wife, Padmé, then have a confrontation where he winds up knocking her out. In a very upsetting scene, Anakin aka Darth Vader slaughters a bunch of Jedi and future Jedi, including children.

Once they're officially on the same team, Palpatine gives Anakin a snazzy new title: Darth Vader. Anakin tells the Jedi Council what he knows, leading Jedi Master Mace Windu to a lightsaber-filled confrontation with Palpatine - until Anakin interferes, saving Palpatine and transitioning to the Dark Side. Palpatine, who has led the Galactic Republic in the years since Episode I, attempts to seduce Anakin over to the Dark Side by promising the ability to cheat death, leading Anakin to realize that Palpatine is actually a Sith lord.

Meanwhile, Padmé announces her pregnancy (with twins!) but Anakin keeps having scary premonitions about her untimely death. Star Wars Episode III: Revenge of the Sithbegins with Anakin and his mentor, Obi-Wan, saving Chancellor Palpatine from Dooku. Hold on to your hats everybody, because young Anakin is about to go full Darth Vader.
