In addition to the known orders, Darth Vader had suspected there was also a contingency order in place to eliminate him should the need arise, and confirmed his suspicions when upon questioning clone Commander Vill, the trooper hesitated to answer. Vader then murdered Vill, to cover up his discovery of the order.
