Pulling an Anakin

"If there's one thing I've learned from you master, it's that following direct orders isn't always the best way to solve a problem."

- Ahsoka Tano

Pulling an Anakin was the act of directly disobeying a direct order, rule, or guideline. It was named for Anakin Skywalker sometime early in the Clone Wars, who was notorious for doing this, a trait which he passed on to his Jedi intern, Ahsoka Tano, and Captain Rex of the 501st Legion.

Anakin eventually became so famous for pulling Anakins that Yoda himself would enlist Anakin's help in pulling an Anakin in ALTA-19. This behavior continued after Anakin became Darth Vader, much to Sheev Palpatine's dismay. Sheev often tried to replace Vader as a result, which never worked out because Vader kept killing all of Sheev's prospects because he wanted to keep his job.
