    “Ah yes we freed you. Now you can join our religious army. Family? Don’t need one. Pay? We don’t have material things. Your mum? You’ll never see her again. Ah yes, enjoy that freedom”

    “We didn’t come here to free slaves.” Yeah, but like, might as well now that you have the opportunity, right? I mean is there a bad time to free slaves? Qui-Gon has always been a dick in my book.

    Anakin: “Thank you! You saved us all.”

    Qui Gon: “Saved us? No, it’s more like under new management”

      Someone else did, right? A local man of humble means if I recall. And even then it was being freed straight into a marriage so it doesn’t sound like she had a great deal of choice in the matter. Can’t believe they just left her there. They probably could have lessened Annakin’s attachment issues by just getting her to a more okay situation in life so he didn’t have to worry about her so much. But that would be actually helping a person you care about! Can’t have that!
