[QUOTE="pukunui, post: 9551206, member: 54629"] Yeah, I guess Yoda was wrong about that, which is a shame. I mean, sure, we shouldn’t necessarily take everything Yoda says as gospel, but still … the whole concept of deathbed repentance is icky. Like, Vader (temporarily) killing Palpatine should not have made up for all the horrible atrocities he committed before then. And the idea that Anakin and Vader aren’t the same person and therefore Anakin isn’t responsible for the things Vader did is ludicrous. At least with Barriss, I got the sense she wasn’t ever [I]fully[/I] committed to being a dark sider, and she earns her own redemption by helping another Inquisitor find redemption as well. I don’t remember Reva’s redemption all that well. I’ll have to rewatch that. I think they did a good job portraying her as an adult suffering from unresolved childhood trauma, though. The other one I would mention is Trilla Suduri (the Second Sister), who also repents moments before her death. At least here, we don’t see her Force ghost afterwards. She just repents and asks for vengeance before being killed by her boss. [/QUOTE]
