14. Qui Gon Jinn has often been referred to as a rebel Jedi. Where did he get those rebel tendencies? Answer: Qui Gon’s tendency toward defiance has generally attributed to his Jedi Master. Count Dooku, who we first meet in Episode II: Attack of the Clones, studied under the great Jedi Master Yoda. Count Dooku was the first and only Jedi to leave his role as a Jedi, presumably because his underling Qui Gon was murdered by Darth Maul in Episode I: The Phantom Menace. Dooku eventually made the move from Jedi Master to Sith Apprentice Darth Tyranus.

Lucas purposely created the officers this way in order to make them more frightening.
