Meeting with Jango
There are a few short lines of dialogue cut from Obi-Wan's meeting with Jango. Below is the script excerpt from the "Art of Episode II" script with the cut lines highlighted in blue print...



TAUN WE
This is Jedi Master Obi-Wan Kenobi. He's come to check on our progress.

JANGO FETT
That right?


JANGO FETT'S eyes fix OBI-WAN coldly.

OBI-WAN
Your clones are very impressive. You must be very proud.

JANGO FETT
I'm just a simple man trying to make my way in the universe, Master Jedi.

OBI-WAN
Aren't we all?


***

JANGO FETT
I was recruited by a man called Tyranus on one of the moons of Bogden.

OBI-WAN
No? I thought...

TAUN WE
Sifo-Dyas told us to expect him. And he showed up just when your Jedi Master said he would. We have kept the Jedi's involvement a secret until your arrival, just as your master requested.


Just a quick note, in the shooting script, Jango refers to Tyranus as "Darth Tyranus". This might have been changed to keep the Sith's involvment with the clones a mystery until the end of the movie when it's revealed that Dooku is Darth Tyranus.
