Emperor Palpatine's Return/Contingency in Star Wars: Episode 9: The Rise of Skywalker was met with a lot of mixed feelings. Some Star Wars Fans loved the fact that they got to see Ian McDiarmid play Emperor Palpatine/Darth Sidious yet again. Other fans were unhappy that Darth Sidious came back to life because it ruined the sacrifice of Darth Vader/Anakin Skywalker in Star Wars: Episode 6: Return of the Jedi. Darth Vader/Anakin Skywalker "killed" Emperor Palpatine in Return of the Jedi, but somehow he returned in The Rise of Skywalker. If you are familiar with the lore, you may know about Palpatine's Contingency. His Contingency plan was a plan that would occur in the event of his death. There are many moving part to his contingency, including Operation Cinder. In this video, I go through many aspects of the Star Wars Canon, including the books and comics, to tie together how exactly Palpatine returned in The Rise of Skywalker, and what his contingency was about.
