I'm sure a lot of y'all have heard about the theory that Qui Gon was a secret Sith because of how crappy of a Jedi he was...
Well, what if he had actually been working with Dooku the whole time in order to undermine Palpatine/Sideous and rule the Galaxy for themselves? Sifo Dyas (how ever you spell it) could have also been in on the conspiracy. Or an unwitting pawn. Either way Dooku left the order around the same time Qui Gon was killed and Sifo had placed the clone order. Qui Gon's death was not foreseen and it forced Dooku to work with the man who he was trying to undermine I order to further his plans.
If Qui Gon had not died and Maul was still killed Dooku might still had worked for Sideous, or Qui Gon may have done so in secret waiting to double cross both the Sith and the Jedi, as well as training a new super powerful padawan and still having a loyal ally in Obi Wan if he could be convinced that the rest of the order was corrupt.
I dunno, it's crazy and also fun to think about alternate character interpretations. Any thoughts or other crazy interpretations?
