Darth Plagueis had an apartment. Darth Plagueis, the weird fucked up alien lich ghoul man with a single minded focus on genetic manipulation and finding the secret to eternal life, lived in an apartment complex. Darth Plagueis had neighbors. Darth Plagueis had a landlord. Darth Plagueis paid rent. When Palpatine killed him, his final thought was not "How could I, Darth Plagueis the Wise, have been so blind as to not see my own apprentice plotting against me", it was "Son of a bitch, now I'm never going to get my damage deposit back."
The obvious answer is Darth Plagueis the Wise, being a master of darkness, was the landlord.
The pedant in me: "Um, actually, 'apartments' was often used for more than simply a rental home but interchangeably with 'chambers' or other general use 'dwelling' terminology, it doesn't m-" Yanked offstage by a cane at absurdly high velocity, there is a crash
The rest of me: "Shhhh let 'em cook this is hilarious, was it a studio, an efficiency, or a 1BR?"
