Come, boy. See for yourself. From here you will witness the final destruction of the Alliance, and the end of your insignificant Rebellion. You want this, don’t you? The hate is swelling in you now. Take your Jedi weapon. Use it. I am unarmed. Strike me down with it. Give in to your anger. With each passing moment, you make yourself more my servant. No! It is unavoidable. It is your destiny. You, like your father, are now mine!

They did it! I’m sure Luke wasn’t on that thing when it blew. He wasn’t. I can feel it. You love him, don’t you? Yes. All right. I understand. Fine. When he comes back, I won’t get in the way. No, it’s not like that at all. He’s my brother.

It is the name of your true self. You’ve only forgotten. I know there is good in you. The Emperor hasn’t driven it from you fully. That is why you couldn’t destroy me. That’s why you won’t bring me to your Emperor now. I see you have constructed a new lightsaber. Your skills are complete. Indeed, you are powerful, as the Emperor has foreseen. Come with me. Obi-Wan once thought as you do. You don’t know the power of the dark side. I must obey my master. I will not turn…and you’ll be forced to kill me. If that is your destiny.

Watch out. Squad at .06. I’m on it, Gold Leader. Good shot, Red Two. Now…come on, Han, old buddy. Don’t let me down.

All right, move it! I said move it! Go on! Hello! I say, over there! Were you looking for me? Bring those two down here! Let’s go! Well, they’re on their way. Artoo, are you sure this was a good idea? Freeze! Don’t move! We surrender. Ohhh! Stand back, Artoo. The code’s changed. We need Artoo! Here’s the terminal. Artoo, where are you? We need you at the bunker right away. Going? What do you mean, you’re going. But– but going where, Artoo? No, what! Artoo! Oh, this is no time for heroics. Come back!

Not bad for a little furball. There’s only one left. You stay here. We’ll take care of this. I have decided that we shall stay here.

You cannot hide forever, Luke. I will not fight you. Give yourself to the dark side. It is the only way you can save your friends. Yes, your thoughts betray you. Your feelings for them are strong. Especially for…

Luke, what’s wrong? Leia… do you remember your mother? Your real mother? Just a little bit. She died when I was very young. What do you remember? Just…images, really. Feelings. Tell me. She was very beautiful. Kind, but…sad. Why are you asking me all this? I have no memory of my mother. I never knew her. Luke, tell me. What’s troubling you? Vader is here…now, on this moon. How do you know? I felt his presence. He’s come for me. He can feel when I’m near. That’s why I have to go. As long as I stay, I’m endangering the group and our mission here. I have to face him. Why? He’s my father. Your father? There’s more. It won’t be easy for you to hear it, but you must.

All wings report in. Red Leader standing by. Gray Leader standing by. Green Leader standing by. Lock S-foils in attack positions. May the Force be with us. We’ve got to be able to get some kind of a reading on that shield, up or down. Well, how could they be jamming us if they don’t know if we’re coming. Break off the attack! The shield is still up. I get no reading. Are you sure? Pull up! All craft pull up! Take evasive action! Green Group, stick close to holding sector MV-7. Admiral, we have enemy ships in sector 47.

Search your feelings, father. You can’t do this. I feel the conflict within you. Let goof your hate. It is too late for me, son. The Emperor will show you the true nature of the Force. He is your master now. Then my father is truly dead.

The main entrance to the control bunker’s on the far side of that landing platform. This isn’t gonna be easy. Hey, don’t worry. Chewie and me got into a lot of places more heavily guarded than this. What’s he saying? He says there’s a secret entrance on the other side of the ridge.

Luke, help me take this mask off. But you’ll die. Nothing can stop that now. Just for once… let me look on you with my own eyes. Now…go, my son. Leave me. No. You’re coming with me. I can’t leave you here. I’ve got to save you. You already have, Luke. You were right about me. Tell your sister…you were right. Father…I won’t leave you. There it is! All right, Wedge. Go for the power regulator on the north tower. Copy, Gold Leader. I’m already on my way out. Move the fleet away from the Death Star.

Greetings, Exalted One. Allow me to introduce myself. I am Luke Skywalker, Jedi Knight and friend to Captain Solo. I know that you are powerful, mighty Jabba, and that your anger with Solo must be equally powerful. I seek an audience with Your Greatness to bargain for Solo’s life. With your wisdom, I’m sure that we can work out an arrangement which will be mutually beneficial and enable us to avoid any unpleasant confrontation. As a token of my goodwill, I present to you a gift: these two droids. What did he say? Both are hardworking and will serve you well.

Lord Vader, this is an unexpected pleasure. We’re honored by your presence. You may dispense with the pleasantries, Commander. I’m here to put you back on schedule. I assure you, Lord Vader, my men are working as fast as they can. Perhaps I can find new ways to motivate them. I tell you, this station will be operational as planned.

We have powerful friends. You’re gonna regret this… I’m sure. Ugh! Ohhh, I can’t bear to watch. Chewie? Chewie, is that you? Ah! Chew–Chewie! Wait. I can’t see, pal. What’s goin’ on? Luke? Luke’s crazy. He can’t even take care of himself, much less rescue anybody. A…Jedi Knight? I–I’m out of it for a little while, everybody gets delusions of grandeur. I’m all right, pal. I’m all right. I must speak with Jabba. You will take me to Jabba now! You serve your master well. And you will be rewarded. At last! Master Luke’s come to rescue me.

No! Luke, run away, far away. If he can feel your presence, then leave this place. I wish I could go with you. No, you don’t. You’ve always been strong. But, why must you confront him? Because…there is good in him. I’ve felt it. He won’t turn me over to the Emperor. I can save him. I can turn him back to the good side. I have to try. Hey, what’s goin’ on? Nothing. I – just want to be alone for a little while. Nothing? Come on, tell me. What’s goin’ on? I…I can’t tell you. Did you tell Luke? Is that who you could tell? I… Ahhh… I’m sorry. Hold me.

Oh, I told you it was dangerous here. Shall we try and go around? It’ll take time. This whole party’ll be for nothing if they see us. Chewie and I will take care of this. You stay here. Quietly, there might be more of them out there. Hey… it’s me. Go for help! Go! Great. Come on. Over there! Two more of them! I see them. Wait, Leia! Quick! Jam their comlink. Center switch! Hey, wait! Ahhh! Move closer! Get alongside that one! Get him! Keep on that one! I’ll take these two!

As you can see, my young apprentice, your friends have failed. Now witness the firepower of this fully armed and operational battle station. Fire at will, Commander. Fire!

If I don’t make it back, you’re the only hope for the Alliance. Luke, don’t talk that way. You have a power I–I don’t understand and could never have. You’re wrong, Leia. You have that power too. In time you’ll learn to use it as I have. The Force is strong in my family. My father has it… I have it …and…my sister has it. Yes. It’s you Leia. I know. Somehow…I’ve always known. Then you know why I have to face him.

It’s a trap!
