Yeah, I know...the acid is more likely.

Dude, I am actually the sort that would totally go for the crazy = evil face more than a real, physical event. (How would he heal so quickly if he fell in acid anyway?) I like that theory and if it is true, wouldn't it be great to see it happen?? Like, watch Palpatine's face totally wither and melt into that ugly mask?

Yay, I'm setting myself up for disappointment [when it doesn't happen]! Again!
