TalesoftheJedi highlights the nuances of Count Dooku.
In the recently released Tales of the Jedi on Disney+, Count Dooku stands in front of the Jedi Temple's Uneti Tree. Pensive, defeated, and exhausted, this is one of Dooku's last moments as a Jedi before turning away from the Order and into the hands of Darth Sidious . With a saga with such rich and timeless villains, this humanizing perspective of the Sith lord first introduced in Attack of the Clones is a surprise, to be sure, but a welcome one.
Dooku stands at the Uneti tree rather than attending his padawan's funeral taking place at the same time, a choice that could be construed by some as callous and cold, yet Dooku's response couldn't be more sincere. He mourns the loss of his student more than any others around him seem to understand, taking a moment to reflect on how he feels complicit in Qui-Gon's loss. He was a part of the structure that failed his padawan and refuses to remain idle any longer.
In the episode titled "Justice," Dooku and his apprentice Qui-Gon Jinn arrive at a remote planet that has been ravaged by the greed of its representative Senator. At a loss for options, the people of a dilapidated village kidnap the Senator's son and, when the Senator fires on his citizens, Dooku Force-chokes the violent leader.
