What would happen if Anakin never turned to the dark side?

If Anakin never turned to the dark side, he likely defeats Palpatine, saves Padmé, and becomes a powerful Jedi Master, leading to a different galaxy where the Empire never forms, the Jedi Order evolves (perhaps integrating attachments), and Luke and Leia grow up with both parents, potentially shaping a more balanced Republic. However, some scenarios suggest the Jedi Council's rigidity might still cause friction, potentially leading Anakin to form a new Jedi path with his family, away from Coruscant.

Why did Padme not wear a bra?

Padmé didn't wear bras (or underwear) in Star Wars because director George Lucas famously told Carrie Fisher (Princess Leia) there was "no underwear in space," a rule extended to other characters like Padmé, suggesting a sci-fi lack of undergarments for comfort or visual reasons, though Carrie Fisher found the rule odd and compared it to Padmé's frequent costume changes, as cited in Wookieepedia and Reddit. While Leia famously went braless under her white robes (using gaffer tape instead), Padmé's elaborate outfits often made bras impractical or unnecessary for the desired look.

Is Darth Plagueis technically Anakin's father?

No, Darth Plagueis is not Anakin Skywalker's biological father, but there's a strong theory (especially in Star Wars Legends and early drafts) that his experiments with midi-chlorians to create life led the Force itself to create Anakin, the Chosen One, as a reaction, making Plagueis the "unintentional father" of the prophecy. In current canon, Plagueis is a legend Palpatine uses to lure Anakin, and the exact nature of Anakin's conception by the Force remains a mystery, though he had no conventional father.
