Plot summary[]
EmperorPalpatine visitsVader's castle, having sought hisSith apprentice out inthe galaxy.Darth Vader has decorated his palace with pumpkins carved into jack-o'-lanterns. While Vader and Palpatine head towards their shuttle, Vader senses a disturbance, which he attributes to the "Sith Witch of Mustafar." Thunder flashes in the background.
When Palpatine presses Vader about the matter, Vader explains that when the night is dark and the lava bubbles, the Sith Witch of Mustafar arises to spread fear and troubles. He says that first they will hear an angry wail and then the woods will shake. Vader then says that a ghostly light will appear. Palpatine is dismissive of the Sith Witch legend and insists on heading towards their shuttle through the nearby forest.
Later, Palpatine records ahologram video where he ponders on the truth of the Sith Witch legend. He laughs at the legend, dismissing it as superstition. Just then, they sense that the woods are shaking. Vader igniteshis lightsaber in self-defense and vows to protect his master. The sense of the commotion turns out to be alava flea, which attempts to befriend Vader. Palpatine laughs, disbelieving the legend.

The stormtroopers are out collecting lollies and ask Palpatine and Vader if it is "trick or treat." After handing the stormtroopers lollies, Palpatine asks Vader about the presumed non-existence of the witch.
