Transcript: The Tragedy of Darth Rocketuies

NOTE: Since this is a work in progress, not all words in the script are final. 
ASH runs up the stairs at the Pokemon Opera House. 
ASH and runs through the hallway and enters PROFESSOR/CHANCELLOR OAK's box, where PROFESSOR OAK is is sitting with...(TBA)...watching the...(TBA)... 
ASH: You wanted to see me, Professor. 
PROFESSOR OAK: Yes, Ash! Come closer. I have good news. Our Clone Intelligence Units have discovered the location of General Giovanni. He is hiding in the (TBA) system. 
ASH: At last, will be able to capture that monster and end this war. 
PROFESSOR OAK: I would worry about the collective wisdom of the council if they didn't select you for the assignment peread you are the best choice by far but, They can't always be trusted to do the right thing. 
ASH: They try. 
PROFESSOR OAK: Sit down, (to his aides) Leave us. 
ASH sits next to PROFESSOR OAK. The Professor (and Chancellor of Pallet Town) leans over to him. 
PROFESSOR OAK: (continuing) Ash, you know I'm not able to rely on the Trainer Council. If they haven't included you in their plot, they soon will. 
ASH: I'm not sure I understand. 
PROFESSOR OAK: You must sense what I have come to suspect… the Trainer Council want control of the Order...they're planning to betray me. 
ASH: I don't think… 
PROFESSOR OAK: Ash, search your feelings. You know, don't you? 
ASH: I know they don't trust you… 
PROFESSOR OAK: Or the Senate…or the Order… or democracy for that matter. 
ASH: I have to admit my trust in them has been shaken. 
PROFESSOR OAK: Why? They asked you to do something that made you feel dishonest, didn't they? 
ASH doesn't say anything. He simply looks down. 
PROFESSOR OAK: (continuing) They asked you to spy on me, didn't they? 
ASH: I don't know...I don't know what to say. 
PROFESSOR OAK: Remember back to your early teachings. Ash. "All those who gain power are afraid to lose it." Even the Master(s). 
ASH: The Masters use their power for good. 
PROFESSOR OAK: Good is a point of view, Ash. And the Master Point of view is not the only valid one. The Dark Lords of the (TBA Sith-like name for Pokenon) and Team Rocket believe in security and justice also, yet they are considered by the Master(s) to be...
ASH: ...evil. 
PROFESSOR OAK: …from a master's point of view. Team Rocket and the Master are similar in almost every way, including their quest for greater power. The difference between two is that Team Rocket is not afraid of the dark side of Pokémon training. That is why they are more powerful. 
ASH: Team Rocket relies on their passion for their strength. They think inward, only about themselves. 
PROFESSOR OAK: And the Pokémon Master doesn't? 
ASH: All true Pokémon trainers and Masters are selfless…they only care about others. 
PROFESSOR OAK smiles. 
PROFESSOR OAK: Or so you've been trained to believe. Why is it, then, that they have asked you to do something you feel is wrong? 
ASH: I'm not sure it's wrong. 
PROFESSOR OAK: Have they asked you to betray the pokemon code? The Constitution? A friendship? Your own values? Think. Consider their motives. Keep your mind clear of assumptions. The fear of losing power is a weakness of both the Pokémon Master and Team Rocket. 
ASH is in deep thought. 
PROFESSOR OAK: (continuing) Did you ever hear the tragedy of Darth Rocketuies "the wise"? 
ASH: No. 
PROFESSOR OAK: I thought not. It's not a story the Master(s) would tell you. It's a Team Rocket legend. Darth Rocketuies was a Dark Lord of the organization, so powerful and so wise he could use the way of the Pokémon to influence the midi-chlorians to create life...He had such a knowledge of the dark side that he could even keep the ones he cared about from dying. 
ASH: He could actually save people from death? 
PROFESSOR OAK: The dark side of the Pokémon is a pathway to many abilities some consider to be unnatural. 
ASH: What happened to him? 
PROFESSOR OAK: He became so powerful… the only thing he was afraid of was losing his power, which eventually, of course, he did. Unfortunately, he taught his apprentice everything he knew, then his apprentice killed him in his sleep. (smiles) Rocketuies never saw it coming. It's ironic he could save others from death, but not himself. 
ASH: Is it possible to learn this power? 
PROFESSOR OAK: Not from a Pokémon Master.
