    So I watched TPM again. in part because of this.

    So… I could be wrong… I could be reading way too much into way too little. but. I noticed in the scene where Quiggy told Anakin and Shmi that Anakin was free; Quiggy was a little to… intimate…? for a guy that stopped over for shelter from a storm. Quiggy totally got some.

    now, here’s the scene where, Padme steps forward to reveal her self to Boss Nass.

    now, with the affore mentioned interaction with Shmi in mind… and realizing that Quigon always played a bit fast and loose with the rules… pay attention to that look he gives Obi. And the look Obi gives him. uhuhuh. sure, that could be…ah… suprise… but that’s a smirk. a knowing smirk.

    Now, Check the scene in AoTC; where annie reunites with padme. She’s all eye contact and ‘you’ve been away too long’, and then she notices annie. Like a trained diplomate, she’s smooth “my how you’ve grown!” and “you’ll always be that little boy!” irritation and awkwardness of unrequited…interest.

    Now here’s the deleted scene where she flat out tells her family that he’s just a body guard, not a boyfriend.

    so, gotta say, yeah. he definitely used the force to coerce her.
