Plot[]
At the Jedi Temple on Coruscant, Dooku secretly uses access codes that belonged to Jedi Master Sifo-Dyas to infiltrate the Jedi Archives and erase all records of the planet Kamino. Shortly afterwards, Dooku is informed by Jocasta Nu about Qui-Gon's encounter with Darth Maul on Tatooine. Later, Dooku reunites with Qui-Gon and Jedi Master Yaddle; the trio discuss the encounter with the Sith Lord. Dooku warns his former apprentice that the Jedi Council is unlikely to take the concerns about Maul's threat seriously. Shortly after Qui-Gon's death, Yaddle discovers that Dooku has been collaborating with another Sith Lord, Darth Sidious. She attempts to reason with Dooku, but is unsuccessful. The two engage in a lightsaber duel in the presence of Sidious. Dooku subdues and kills Yaddle in order to prove his loyalty to Sidious, thus solidifying Dooku's fall to the Dark Side of the Force.
