Qui Gon & Schmi Originally Had Sex & A Romance


They tried to edit out the romance between them, but you can still tell what was intended from what they shot.

FACT.

I believe the sex scene was originally intercut with Anakin fixing the pod. It starts off with them swapping jokes about being "rusty" as the neighborhood kids mock Anakin's racer and culminates with Anakin shouting "It's working! It's working!" as they achieve simultaneous orgasm.

LOL, that would have been terrible.

Yeah, but it would have made the debates about Jedi celibacy restrictions even crazier!

And it might have been better than the Jedi just abandoning a woman who can give parthenogenic birth to Force prodigies, which is a horrible little plot point that still annoys me. Why not come back and free her, and see what marvel she'll pop out next?

I know this was just a joke topic but in the early years when this first came out I used to believe it was possible they may have had a romantic relationship before episode 1 or least a brief fling. Because certain times it seemed like they may have known each other but they didn't acknowledge it because of qui-gon's commitment to the Jedi Order. Sometimes it seemed like Qui-Gon was wondering if Anakin was his kid or not
