Star Wars (1977)

Season 1, Episode 1 — Star Wars (1977)

#1
Did you hear that?

#2
They shut down the main reactor. We'll be destroyed for sure.

#3
This is madness.

#4
We're doomed.

#5
There'll be no escape for the princess this time.

#6
What's that?

#7
R2-D2, where are you?

#8
At last. Where have you been?

#9
They're heading in this direction. What are we going to do?

#10
We'll be sent to the spice mines of Kessel or smashed into who knows what.

#11
Wait a minute. Where are you going?

#12
The Death Star plans are not in the main computer.

#13
Where are those transmissions you intercepted?

#14
What have you done with those plans?

#15
We intercepted no transmissions.

#16
This is a consular ship. We're on a diplomatic mission.

#17
If this is a consular ship, where is the ambassador?

#18
Commander, tear this ship apart until you've found those plans!

#19
And bring me the passengers! I want them alive!

#20
There's one. Set for stun.

#21
She'll be all right.

#22
Inform Lord Vader we have a prisoner.

#23
Hey. You're not permitted in there. It's restricted.

#24
You'll be deactivated for sure.

#25
Don't call me a mindless philosopher, you overweight glob of grease.

#26
Come out, before somebody sees you.

#27
Secret mission? What plans?

#28
What are you talking about? I'm not getting in there.

#29
I'm going to regret this.

#30
- There goes another one. - Hold your fire. There's no life-forms.

#31
It must have short-circuited.

#32
That's funny. The damage doesn't look as bad from out here.

#33
Are you sure this thing is safe?

#34
Darth Vader. Only you could be so bold.

#35
The Imperial Senate will not sit still for this.

#36
When they hear you've attacked...

#37
Don't act so surprised, Your Highness.

#38
You weren't on any mercy mission this time.

#39
Several transmissions were beamed to this ship by rebel spies.

#40
I want to know what happened to the plans they sent you.

#41
I don't know what you're talking about.

#42
I'm a member of the Imperial Senate on a diplomatic mission to Alderaan.

#43
You are part of the Rebel Alliance and a traitor.

#44
Take her away!

#45
Holding her is dangerous.

#46
If word of this gets out, it could generate

#47
sympathy for the rebellion in the senate.

#48
I have traced the rebel spies to her.

#49
Now she is my only link to finding their secret base.

#50
She'll die before she'll tell you anything.

#51
Leave that to me.

#52
Send a distress signal, and then inform the senate that all aboard were killed.

#53
Lord Vader, the battle station plans are not aboard this ship

#54
and no transmissions were made.

#55
An escape pod was jettisoned during the fighting,

#56
but no life-forms were aboard.

#57
She must have hidden the plans in the escape pod.

#58
Send a detachment down to retrieve them.

#59
See to it personally, Commander.

#60
There'll be no one to stop us this time.

#61
Yes, sir.

#62
How did we get into this mess?

#63
I really don't know how.

#64
We seem to be made to suffer. It's our lot in life.

#65
I've got to rest before I fall apart. My joints are almost frozen.

#66
What a desolate place this is.

#67
Where do you think you're going?

#68
Well, I'm not going that way.

#69
It's much too rocky.

#70
This way is much easier.

#71
What makes you think there are settlements over there?

#72
Don't get technical with me.

#73
What mission? What are you talking about?

#74
I've just about had enough of you.

#75
Go that way.

#76
You'll be malfunctioning within a day, you nearsighted scrap pile.

#77
And don't let me catch you following me, begging for help

#78
because you won't get it.

#79
No more adventures.

#80
I'm not going that way.

#81
That malfunctioning little twerp. This is all his fault.

#82
He tricked me into going this way,

#83
but he'll do no better.

#84
Wait. What's that?

#85
A transport. I'm saved.

#86
Over here!

#87
Hey! Hey!

#88
Help! Please help!

#89
R2?

#90
R2-D2, it is you! It is you!

#91
Someone was in the pod. The tracks go off in this direction.

#92
Look, sir. Droids.

#93
We stopped.

#94
Wake up. Wake up!

#95
We're doomed.

#96
Do you think they'll melt us down?

#97
Don't shoot. Don't shoot.

#98
Will this never end?

#99
- Fine. Let's go. - Luke!

#100
Luke!

#101
Luke, tell your uncle if he gets a translator, be sure it speaks Bocce.

#102
Doesn't look like we have much choice, but I'll remind him.

#103
Yeah, we'll take that red one.

#104
No, not that one.

#105
You. I suppose you're programmed for etiquette and protocol.

#106
Protocol? Why, it's my primary function, sir.

#107
I am well versed in all the customs...

#108
- I have no need for a protocol droid. - Of course you haven't, sir.

#109
Not in an environment such as this. That's why I have been programmed...

#110
What I need is a droid who understands

#111
the binary language of moisture vaporators.

#112
Vaporators? Sir, my first job was programming binary load lifters,

#113
very similar to your vaporators in most respects.

#114
Can you speak Bocce?

#115
Of course I can, sir. It's like a second language to me.

#116
- All right. Shut up. I'll take this one. - Shutting up, sir.

#117
Luke!

#118
Take these two over to the garage, will you?

#119
I want them cleaned up before dinner.

#120
But I was going into Tosche Station to pick up some power converters.

#121
You can waste time with your friends when your chores are done.

#122
Now come on. Get to it.

#123
All right. Come on.

#124
And the red one. Come on.

#125
Well, come on, red. Let's go.

#126
- Uncle Owen. - Yeah?

#127
This R2 unit has a bad motivator. Look.

#128
Hey, what are you trying to push on us?

#129
Excuse me, sir, but that R2 unit is in prime condition, a real bargain.

#130
- Uncle Owen? What about that one? - Yeah?

#131
What about that blue one? We'll take that one.

#132
Take this away.

#133
You'll be pleased with that one, sir.

#134
He really is in first-class condition. I've worked with him before.

#135
Here he comes.

#136
Okay. Let's go.

#137
Now, don't you forget this.

#138
Why I should stick my neck out for you is quite beyond my capacity.

#139
Thank the maker. This oil bath is going to feel so good.

#140
I've got such a bad case of dust contamination, I can barely move.

#141
It just isn't fair.

#142
Biggs is right. I'm never gonna get out of here.

#143
Is there anything I might do to help?

#144
No, not unless you can alter time, speed up the harvest,

#145
or teleport me off this rock.

#146
I don't think so, sir.

#147
I'm only a droid and not very knowledgeable about such things.

#148
Not on this planet, anyway.

#149
As a matter of fact, I'm not even sure which planet I'm on.

#150
Well, if there's a bright centre to the universe,

#151
you're on the planet that it's farthest from.

#152
I see, sir.

#153
- You can call me Luke. - I see, Sir Luke.

#154
Just Luke.

#155
And I am C-3PO, human-cyborg relations.

#156
And this is my counterpart, R2-D2.

#157
Hello.

#158
You got a lot of carbon scoring here.

#159
Looks like you boys have seen a lot of action.

#160
With all we've been through,

#161
sometimes I'm amazed we're in as good condition as we are,

#162
what with the rebellion and all.

#163
You know of the rebellion against the Empire?

#164
That's how we came to be in your service,

#165
if you take my meaning, sir.

#166
- Have you been in many battles? - Several, I think.

#167
Actually, there's not much to tell.

#168
I'm not much more than an interpreter and not very good at telling stories.

#169
Well, not at making them interesting, anyway.

#170
Well, my little friend,

#171
you got something jammed in here real good.

#172
Were you on a Starcruiser or...

#173
Help me, Obi-Wan Kenobi. You're my only hope.

#174
What's this?

#175
"What is what"? He asked you a question. What is that?

#176
Help me, Obi-Wan Kenobi. You're my only hope.

#177
Help me, Obi-Wan Kenobi. You're my only hope.

#178
Oh. He says it's nothing, sir, merely a malfunction.

#179
Old data. Pay it no mind.

#180
Who is she? She's beautiful.

#181
I'm afraid I'm not quite sure, sir.

#182
I think she was a passenger on our last voyage.

#183
A person of some importance, I believe.

#184
- Our captain was... - Is there any more to this recording?

#185
Behave yourself, R2. You're going to get us into trouble.

#186
It's all right. You can trust him. He's our new master.

#187
You're my only hope.

#188
He says he's the property of Obi-Wan Kenobi,

#189
a resident of these parts,

#190
and it's a private message for him.

#191
Quite frankly, sir, I don't know what he's talking about.

#192
Our last master was Captain Antilles.

#193
But with all we've been through,

#194
this little R2 unit has become a bit eccentric.

#195
Obi-Wan Kenobi. I wonder if he means old Ben Kenobi.

#196
I beg your pardon, sir, but do you know what he's talking about?

#197
I don't know anyone named Obi-Wan,

#198
but old Ben lives out beyond the Dune Sea.

#199
He's kind of a strange old hermit.

#200
I wonder who she is.

#201
Sounds like she's in trouble. I better play back the whole thing.

#202
He says the restraining bolt has short-circuited his recording system.

#203
He suggests that if you remove the bolt,

#204
he might be able to play back the entire recording.

#205
Oh, yeah. Well...

#206
I guess you're too small to run away on me if I take this off.

#207
Okay.

#208
There you go.

#209
Wait a minute. Where'd she go? Bring her back. Play back the entire message.

#210
"What message"?

#211
The one you've just been playing.

#212
The one you're carrying inside your rusty innards.

#213
Luke! Luke!

#214
I'll be right there, Aunt Beru.

#215
I'm sorry, sir, but he appears to have picked up a slight flutter.

#216
Here. See what you can do with him. I'll be right back.

#217
Just you reconsider playing that message for him.

#218
No, I don't think he likes you at all.

#219
No, I don't like you either.

#220
You know, I think that R2 unit we bought might have been stolen.

#221
What makes you think that?

#222
I stumbled across a recording while I was cleaning him.

#223
He says he belongs to someone called Obi-Wan Kenobi.

#224
I thought he might have meant old Ben. Do you know what he's talking about?

#225
I wonder if he's related to Ben.

#226
That wizard's just a crazy old man.

#227
Tomorrow, I want you to take that R2 unit to Anchorhead

#228
and have its memory erased.

#229
That'll be the end of it. It belongs to us now.

#230
But what if this Obi-Wan comes looking for him?

#231
He won't.

#232
I don't think he exists any more.

#233
He died about the same time as your father.

#234
- He knew my father? - I told you to forget it.

#235
Your only concern is to prepare those new droids for tomorrow.

#236
In the morning, I want them up there on the south ridge,

#237
working on those condensers.

#238
Yes, sir.

#239
I think those new droids are gonna work out fine.

#240
In fact, I was also thinking about our agreement,

#241
about me staying on another season.

#242
And if these new droids do work out,

#243
I want to transmit my application to the academy this year.

#244
You mean the next semester before the harvest?

#245
Sure. There's more than enough droids.

#246
Harvest is when I need you the most.

#247
It's only one season more.

#248
This year we'll make enough on the harvest

#249
that I'll be able to hire some more hands

#250
and then you can go to the academy next year.

#251
You must understand I need you here, Luke.

#252
- But it's a whole 'nother year. - It's only one more season.

#253
That's what you said when Biggs and Tank left.

#254
- Where are you going? - Looks like I'm going nowhere.

#255
I have to go finish cleaning those droids.

#256
Owen, he can't stay here forever. Most of his friends have gone.

#257
It means so much to him.

#258
I'll make it up to him next year. I promise.

#259
Luke's just not a farmer, Owen. He has too much of his father in him.

#260
That's what I'm afraid of.

#261
- What are you doing hiding back there? - It wasn't my fault, sir.

#262
Please don't deactivate me.

#263
I told him not to go, but he's faulty, malfunctioning.

#264
- Kept babbling on about his mission. - Oh, no.

#265
That R2 unit has always been a problem.

#266
These astro droids are getting quite out of hand.

#267
Even I can't understand their logic at times.

#268
How could I be so stupid? He's nowhere in sight.

#269
Blast it!

#270
Pardon me, sir, but couldn't we go after him?

#271
It's too dangerous with the Sandpeople around.

#272
We'll have to wait till morning.

#273
Luke, I'm shutting the power down.

#274
All right. I'll be there in a few minutes.

#275
Boy, am I gonna get it.

#276
You know, that little droid's gonna cause me a lot of trouble.

#277
Oh, he excels at that, sir.

#278
Come on.

#279
Luke?

#280
Luke?

#281
Luke!

#282
Have you seen Luke this morning?

#283
He said he had some things to do before he started today, so he left early.

#284
- Did he take those new droids with him? - I think so.

#285
He better have those units in the south range repaired by midday

#286
or there'll be hell to pay.

#287
There's a droid on the scanner. Dead ahead.

#288
It might be our little R2 unit. Hit the accelerator.

#289
Hey, whoa! Just where do you think you're going?

#290
Master Luke is your rightful owner now.

#291
We'll have no more of this Obi-Wan Kenobi gibberish.

#292
Don't talk to me of your mission either.

#293
You're fortunate he doesn't blast you into a million pieces right here.

#294
No. It's all right, but I think we'd better go.

#295
What's wrong with him now?

#296
There are several creatures approaching from the southeast.

#297
Sandpeople. Or worse.

#298
Come on. Let's go have a look.

#299
Come on.

#300
Well, there are two Banthas down there, but I don't see any...

#301
Wait a second.

#302
They're Sandpeople, all right. I can see one of them now.

#303
Hello there.

#304
Come here, my little friend. Don't be afraid.

#305
Don't worry. He'll be all right.

#306
Rest easy, son. You've had a busy day.

#307
You're fortunate to be all in one piece.

#308
Ben? Ben Kenobi?

#309
Boy, am I glad to see you.

#310
The Jundland Wastes are not to be travelled lightly.

#311
Tell me, young Luke, what brings you out this far?

#312
This little droid.

#313
I think he's searching for his former master,

#314
but I've never seen such devotion in a droid before.

#315
He claims to be the property of an Obi-Wan Kenobi.

#316
Is he a relative of yours? Do you know who he's talking about?

#317
Obi-Wan Kenobi?

#318
Obi-Wan.

#319
Now, that's a name I've not heard in a long time.

#320
A long time.

#321
I think my uncle knows him. He said he was dead.

#322
Oh, he's not dead.

#323
Not yet.

#324
- You know him? - Well, of course I know him.

#325
He's me.

#326
I haven't gone by the name of Obi-Wan

#327
since, oh, before you were born.

#328
Well, then the droid does belong to you.

#329
I don't seem to remember ever owning a droid.

#330
Very interesting.

#331
I think we better get indoors.

#332
The Sandpeople are easily startled,

#333
but they'll soon be back, and in greater numbers.

#334
3PO.

#335
Where am I? I must have taken a bad step.

#336
Can you stand? We've gotta get out of here before the Sandpeople return.

#337
I don't think I can make it. You go on, Master Luke.

#338
There's no sense in you risking yourself on my account. I'm done for.

#339
No, you're not. What kind of talk is that?

#340
Quickly. They're on the move.

#341
My father didn't fight in the wars. He was a navigator on a spice freighter.

#342
That's what your uncle told you.

#343
He didn't hold with your father's ideals.

#344
Thought he should have stayed here and not gotten involved.

#345
- You fought in the Clone Wars? - Yes.

#346
I was once a Jedi knight, the same as your father.

#347
I wish I'd known him.

#348
He was the best starpilot in the galaxy

#349
and a cunning warrior.

#350
I understand you've become quite a good pilot yourself.

#351
And he was a good friend.

#352
Which reminds me...

#353
I have something here for you.

#354
Your father wanted you to have this when you were old enough,

#355
but your uncle wouldn't allow it.

#356
He feared you might follow old Obi-Wan

#357
on some damn-fool idealistic crusade, like your father did.

#358
Sir, if you'll not be needing me, I'll close down for a while.

#359
Sure. Go ahead.

#360
- What is it? - Your father's lightsaber.

#361
This is the weapon of a Jedi knight.

#362
Not as clumsy or random as a blaster.

#363
An elegant weapon

#364
for a more civilised age.

#365
For over a thousand generations, the Jedi knights

#366
were the guardians of peace and justice in the old Republic

#367
before the dark times,

#368
before the Empire.

#369
How did my father die?

#370
A young Jedi named Darth Vader,

#371
who was a pupil of mine until he turned to evil,

#372
helped the Empire hunt down and destroy the Jedi knights.

#373
He betrayed and murdered your father.

#374
Now the Jedi are all but extinct.

#375
Vader was seduced by the dark side of the Force.

#376
The Force?

#377
The Force is what gives a Jedi his power.

#378
It's an energy field created by all living things.

#379
It surrounds us and penetrates us.

#380
It binds the galaxy together.

#381
Now, let's see if we can't figure out what you are, my little friend,

#382
and where you come from.

#383
- I saw part of a message... - I seem to have found it.

#384
General Kenobi, years ago you served my father in the Clone Wars.

#385
Now he begs you to help him in his struggle against the Empire.

#386
I regret that I am unable to present my father's request in person.

#387
But my ship has fallen under attack

#388
and I'm afraid my mission to bring you to Alderaan has failed.

#389
I have placed information vital to the survival of the rebellion

#390
into the memory systems of this R2 unit.

#391
My father will know how to retrieve it.

#392
You must see this droid safely delivered to him on Alderaan.

#393
This is our most desperate hour.

#394
Help me, Obi-Wan Kenobi. You're my only hope.

#395
You must learn the ways of the Force if you're to come with me to Alderaan.

#396
Alderaan?

#397
I'm not going to Alderaan.

#398
I've gotta get home. It's late. I'm in for it as it is.

#399
I need your help, Luke. She needs your help.

#400
I'm getting too old for this sort of thing.

#401
I can't get involved. I've got work to do.

#402
It's not that I like the Empire. I hate it.

#403
But there's nothing I can do about it right now.

#404
- It's all such a long way from here. - That's your uncle talking.

#405
Oh, boy. My uncle. How am I ever gonna explain this?

#406
Learn about the Force, Luke.

#407
Look, I can take you as far as Anchorhead.

#408
You can get a transport there to Mos Eisley or wherever you're going.

#409
You must do what you feel is right, of course.

#410
Until this battle station is fully operational, we are vulnerable.

#411
The Rebel Alliance is too well equipped.

#412
They're more dangerous than you realise.

#413
Dangerous to your starfleet, Commander,

#414
not to this battle station.

#415
The rebellion will continue to gain support in the Imperial Senate...

#416
The Imperial Senate will no longer be of any concern to us.

#417
I've just received word that the Emperor has dissolved the council permanently.

#418
The last remnants of the old Republic have been swept away.

#419
That's impossible.

#420
How will the Emperor maintain control without the bureaucracy?

#421
The regional governors now have direct control over their territories.

#422
Fear will keep the local systems in line.

#423
Fear of this battle station.

#424
And what of the rebellion?

#425
If the rebels have obtained a complete technical readout of this station,

#426
it is possible, however unlikely,

#427
that they might find a weakness and exploit it.

#428
The plans you refer to will soon be back in our hands.

#429
Any attack made by the rebels against this station would be a useless gesture,

#430
no matter what technical data they've obtained.

#431
This station is now the ultimate power in the universe.

#432
I suggest we use it.

#433
Don't be too proud of this technological terror you've constructed.

#434
The ability to destroy a planet is insignificant

#435
next to the power of the Force.

#436
Don't try to frighten us with your sorcerer's ways, Lord Vader.

#437
Your sad devotion to that ancient religion

#438
has not helped you conjure up the stolen data tapes

#439
or given you clairvoyance enough to find the rebels' hidden fortress...

#440
I find your lack of faith disturbing.

#441
Enough of this. Vader, release him.

#442
As you wish.

#443
This bickering is pointless.

#444
Lord Vader will provide us with the location of the rebel fortress

#445
by the time this station is operational.

#446
We will then crush the rebellion with one swift stroke.

#447
It looks like the Sandpeople did this, all right.

#448
There's gaffi sticks, Bantha tracks.

#449
I've just never heard of them hitting anything this big before.

#450
They didn't, but we are meant to think they did.

#451
These tracks are side-by-side.

#452
Sandpeople always ride single file to hide their numbers.

#453
These are the same Jawas that sold us R2 and 3PO.

#454
And these blast points, too accurate for Sandpeople.

#455
Only imperial stormtroopers are so precise.

#456
But why would imperial troops want to slaughter Jawas?

#457
If they traced the robots here,

#458
they may have learned who they sold them to

#459
and that would lead them back home.

#460
Wait, Luke.

#461
It's too dangerous.

#462
Uncle Owen.

#463
Aunt Beru.

#464
Uncle Owen.

#465
Now, Your Highness, we will discuss the location of your hidden rebel base.

#466
There's nothing you could have done, had you been there.

#467
You'd have been killed too,

#468
and the droids would now be in the hands of the Empire.

#469
I want to come with you to Alderaan.

#470
There's nothing for me here now.

#471
I want to learn the ways of the Force and become a Jedi like my father.

#472
Mos Eisley spaceport.

#473
You will never find a more wretched hive of scum and villainy.

#474
We must be cautious.

#475
How long have you had these droids?

#476
- About three or four seasons. - They're up for sale if you want them.

#477
Let me see your identification.

#478
You don't need to see his identification.

#479
We don't need to see his identification.

#480
These aren't the droids you're looking for.

#481
These aren't the droids we're looking for.

#482
He can go about his business.

#483
- You can go about your business. - Move along.

#484
Move along. Move along.

#485
I can't abide those Jawas. Disgusting creatures.

#486
Go on, go on.

#487
I can't understand how we got by those troops.

#488
I thought we were dead.

#489
The Force can have a strong influence on the weak-minded.

#490
You really think we're gonna find

#491
a pilot here that'll take us to Alderaan?

#492
Most of the best freighter pilots are to be found here.

#493
Only watch your step, this place can be a little rough.

#494
I'm ready for anything.

#495
Come along, R2.

#496
- Hey. We don't serve their kind here. - What?

#497
Your droids, they'll have to wait outside.

#498
We don't want them here.

#499
Why don't you wait out by the speeder? We don't want any trouble.

#500
I heartily agree with you, sir.

#501
Uh... I'll have one of those.

#502
- He doesn't like you. - I'm sorry.

#503
I don't like you either. You just watch yourself.

#504
We're wanted men. I have the death sentence on 12 systems.

#505
- I'll be careful then. - You'll be dead!

#506
This little one's not worth the effort.

#507
Come, let me get you something.

#508
Aah!

#509
I'm all right.

#510
Chewbacca here is first mate on a ship that might suit us.

#511
I don't like the look of this.

#512
Han Solo. I'm captain of the Millennium Falcon.

#513
Chewie here tells me you're looking for passage to the Alderaan system.

#514
Yes, indeed, if it's a fast ship.

#515
Fast ship? You've never heard of the Millennium Falcon?

#516
Should I have?

#517
It's the ship that made the Kessel run in less than 12 parsecs.

#518
I've outrun imperial starships.

#519
Not the local bulk cruisers, mind you.

#520
I'm talking about the big Corellian ships now.

#521
She's fast enough for you, old man.

#522
- What's the cargo? - Only passengers.

#523
Myself, the boy, two droids...

#524
And no questions asked.

#525
What is it, some kind of local trouble?

#526
Let's just say we'd like to avoid any imperial entanglements.

#527
Well, that's the real trick, isn't it?

#528
And it's gonna cost you something extra.

#529
Ten thousand, all in advance.

#530
Ten thousand?

#531
We could almost buy our own ship for that.

#532
But who's gonna fly it, kid? You?

#533
You bet I could. I'm not such a bad pilot, myself.

#534
We don't have to sit here and listen...

#535
We can pay you 2,000 now,

#536
plus 15 when we reach Alderaan.

#537
Seventeen?

#538
Okay, you guys got yourselves a ship.

#539
We'll leave as soon as you're ready. Docking Bay 94.

#540
Ninety-four.

#541
Looks like somebody's beginning to take an interest in your handiwork.

#542
All right. We'll check it out.

#543
Seventeen thousand. Those guys must really be desperate.

#544
This could really save my neck. Get back to the ship, get it ready.

#545
- You'll have to sell your speeder. - That's okay.

#546
I'm never coming back to this planet again.

#547
Yes, Greedo.

#548
As a matter of fact, I was just going to see your boss.

#549
Tell Jabba that I've got his money.

#550
Yeah, but this time I've got the money.

#551
I don't have it with me. Tell Jabba...

#552
Even I get boarded sometimes.

#553
Do you think I had a choice?

#554
Over my dead body.

#555
I'll bet you have.

#556
Sorry about the mess.

#557
Her resistance to the mind probe is considerable.

#558
It'll be some time before we can extract any information from her.

#559
The final checkout is completed. All systems are operational.

#560
What course shall we set?

#561
Perhaps she would respond to an alternative form of persuasion.

#562
What do you mean?

#563
I think it is time we demonstrated the full power of this station.

#564
- Set your course for Alderaan. - With pleasure.

#565
Lock the door, R2.

#566
All right. Check this side of the street.

#567
The door's locked. Move on to the next one.

#568
I would much rather have gone with Master Luke than stay here with you.

#569
I don't know what this trouble is about, but I'm sure it must be your fault.

#570
You watch your language.

#571
All right. Give it to me. I'll take it.

#572
Look at this. Ever since the XP-38 came out, they just aren't in demand.

#573
It'll be enough.

#574
Right here, Jabba.

#575
I've been waitin' for you.

#576
You didn't think I was gonna run, did you?

#577
Jabba, next time you wanna talk to me,

#578
come see me yourself.

#579
Don't send one of these twerps.

#580
Look, Jabba, even I get boarded sometimes.

#581
You think I had a choice?

#582
But I got a nice, easy charter.

#583
I'll pay ya back, plus a little extra. I just need a little more time.

#584
Fifteen, Jabba. Don't push it.

#585
Jabba, you're a wonderful human being.

#586
If the ship's as fast as he's boasting, we ought to do well.

#587
What a piece of junk.

#588
She'll make.5 past light speed.

#589
She may not look like much, but she's got it where it counts, kid.

#590
I've made a lot of special modifications myself.

#591
But we're a little rushed, so if you'll just get on board, we'll get outta here.

#592
Hello, sir.

#593
Which way?

#594
All right, men, load your weapons.

#595
Stop that ship. Blast them.

#596
Chewie, get us out of here!

#597
Oh, my. I'd forgotten how much I hate space travel.

#598
Grrr...

#599
Looks like an imperial cruiser.

#600
Our passengers must be hotter than I thought.

#601
Hold 'em off. Angle the deflector shields

#602
while I make the calculations for the jump to light speed.

#603
Stay sharp. There's two more comin' in. They're gonna try and cut us off.

#604
Why don't you outrun 'em? You said this thing was fast.

#605
Watch your mouth or you're gonna find yourself floating home.

#606
We'll be safe enough once we make the jump to hyperspace.

#607
Besides, I know a few manoeuvres. We'll lose 'em.

#608
Here's where the fun begins.

#609
How long before you can jump to light speed?

#610
It'll take a few moments to get the coordinates from the navicomputer.

#611
Are you kidding? At the rate they're gaining?

#612
Travelling through hyperspace ain't like dustin' crops, boy.

#613
Without precise calculations, we'd fly right through a star

#614
or bounce too close to a supernova, and that would end your trip real quick.

#615
- What's that flashing? - We're losing a deflector shield.

#616
Go strap yourselves in. I'm gonna make the jump to light speed.

#617
We've entered the Alderaan system.

#618
Governor Tarkin.

#619
I should have expected to find you holding Vader's leash.

#620
I recognised your foul stench when I was brought on board.

#621
Charming to the last.

#622
You don't know how hard I found it

#623
signing the order to terminate your life.

#624
I'm surprised you had the courage to take the responsibility yourself.

#625
Princess Leia, before your execution,

#626
I would like you to be my guest at a ceremony

#627
that will make this battle station operational.

#628
No star system will dare oppose the Emperor now.

#629
The more you tighten your grip, Tarkin,

#630
the more star systems will slip through your fingers.

#631
Not after we demonstrate the power of this station.

#632
In a way, you have determined the choice of the planet

#633
that'll be destroyed first.

#634
Since you are reluctant to provide us with the location of the rebel base,

#635
I have chosen to test this station's destructive power

#636
on your home planet of Alderaan.

#637
No. Alderaan is peaceful. We have no weapons. You can't possibly...

#638
You would prefer another target? A military target?

#639
Then name the system.

#640
I grow tired of asking this, so it will be the last time.

#641
Where is the rebel base?

#642
Dantooine.

#643
They're on Dantooine.

#644
There. You see, Lord Vader? She can be reasonable.

#645
Continue with the operation. You may fire when ready.

#646
- What? - You're far too trusting.

#647
Dantooine is too remote to make an effective demonstration.

#648
But don't worry. We will deal with your rebel friends soon enough.

#649
No!

#650
Commence primary ignition.

#651
Are you all right? What's wrong?

#652
I felt a great disturbance in the Force

#653
as if millions of voices suddenly cried out in terror

#654
and were suddenly silenced.

#655
I fear something terrible has happened.

#656
You'd better get on with your exercises.

#657
You can forget your troubles with those imperial slugs.

#658
I told you I'd outrun them.

#659
Don't everybody thank me at once.

#660
Anyway, we should be at Alderaan about 0200 hours.

#661
Now be careful, R2.

#662
Argh!

#663
He made a fair move. Screaming about it can't help you.

#664
Let him have it. It's not wise to upset a Wookiee.

#665
But, sir, nobody worries about upsetting a droid.

#666
That's 'cause a droid don't pull people's arms

#667
out of their sockets when they lose.

#668
Wookiees are known to do that.

#669
Grrr...

#670
I see your point, sir.

#671
I suggest a new strategy, R2. Let the Wookiee win.

#672
Argh!

#673
Remember, a Jedi can feel the Force flowing through him.

#674
- You mean it controls your actions? - Partially.

#675
But it also obeys your commands.

#676
Oh!

#677
Hokey religions and ancient weapons

#678
are no match for a blaster at your side, kid.

#679
You don't believe in the Force, do you?

#680
Kid, I've flown from one side of this galaxy to the other.

#681
I've seen a lot of strange stuff,

#682
but I've never seen anything to make me believe

#683
there's one all-powerful force controlling everything.

#684
There's no mystical energy field controls my destiny.

#685
It's all a lot of simple tricks and nonsense.

#686
I suggest you try it again, Luke.

#687
This time, let go your conscious self

#688
and act on instinct.

#689
With the blast shield down, I can't see. How am I supposed to fight?

#690
Your eyes can deceive you. Don't trust them.

#691
Stretch out with your feelings.

#692
You see? You can do it.

#693
I call it luck.

#694
In my experience, there's no such thing as luck.

#695
Look, good against remotes is one thing.

#696
Good against the living, that's something else.

#697
Looks like we're coming up on Alderaan.

#698
You know, I did feel something. I could almost see the remote.

#699
That's good. You've taken your first step into a larger world.

#700
Yes?

#701
Our scout ships have reached Dantooine.

#702
They found the remains of a rebel base,

#703
but they estimate that it has been deserted for some time.

#704
They are now conducting an extensive search of the surrounding systems.

#705
She lied. She lied to us.

#706
I told you she would never consciously betray the rebellion.

#707
Terminate her immediately.

#708
Stand by, Chewie. Here we go. Cut in the sublight engines.

#709
What the...

#710
Aarghh arrgh!

#711
We've come out of hyperspace into a meteor shower,

#712
some kind of asteroid collision.

#713
- It's not on any of the charts. - What's going on?

#714
Our position's correct, except no Alderaan.

#715
- What do you mean? Where is it? - That's what I'm trying to tell you.

#716
It ain't there. It's been blown away.

#717
- What? How? - Destroyed by the Empire.

#718
The entire starfleet couldn't destroy the whole planet.

#719
It'd take a thousand ships with more firepower than I've...

#720
- There's another ship coming in. - Maybe they know what happened.

#721
It's an imperial fighter.

#722
- It followed us. - No. It's a short-range fighter.

#723
There aren't any bases around here. Where did it come from?

#724
Sure is leaving in a big hurry. If they identify us, we're in trouble.

#725
Not if I can help it. Chewie, jam its transmissions.

#726
- Let it go. It's too far out of range. - Not for long.

#727
A fighter that size couldn't get this deep into space on its own.

#728
He must have gotten lost, been part of a convoy or something.

#729
He ain't gonna be around long enough to tell anybody about us.

#730
Look at him. He's heading for that small moon.

#731
I think I can get him before he gets there. He's almost in range.

#732
That's no moon.

#733
- It's a space station. - It's too big to be a space station.

#734
I have a very bad feeling about this.

#735
Turn the ship around.

#736
Yeah. I think you're right. Full reverse.

#737
Chewie, lock in the auxiliary power.

#738
Chewie, lock in the auxiliary power.

#739
Why are we still moving towards it?

#740
We're caught in a tractor beam. It's pulling us in.

#741
There's gotta be something you can do.

#742
There's nothing I can do, kid. I'm at full power. I have to shut down.

#743
They're not gonna get me without a fight.

#744
You can't win, but there are alternatives to fighting.

#745
Clear Bay 327.

#746
We are opening the magnetic field.

#747
To your stations. Come with me.

#748
Close all outboard shields. Close all outboard shields.

#749
Yes?

#750
We've captured a freighter entering the remains of the Alderaan system.

#751
Its markings match those of a ship that blasted its way out of Mos Eisley.

#752
They must be trying to return the stolen plans to the princess.

#753
She may yet be of some use to us.

#754
Unlock one, five, seven and nine. Release charge.

#755
Three-one-six, report to control.

#756
There's no one on board, sir.

#757
According to the log, the crew abandoned ship right after take-off.

#758
It must be a decoy, sir. Several escape pods have been jettisoned.

#759
- Did you find any droids? - No, sir.

#760
If there were any, they must also have jettisoned.

#761
Send a scanning crew aboard. I want every part of this ship checked.

#762
Yes, sir.

#763
I sense something,

#764
a presence I've not felt since...

#765
Get me a scanning crew in here on the double.

#766
I want every part of this ship checked.

#767
There's no one here.

#768
Boy, it's lucky you have these compartments.

#769
I use them for smuggling. I never thought I'd be smuggling myself in 'em.

#770
This is ridiculous.

#771
Even if I could take off, I'd never get past the tractor beam.

#772
Leave that to me.

#773
Damn fool. I knew you were gonna say that.

#774
Who's the more foolish, the fool or the fool who follows him?

#775
Argh!

#776
The ship's all yours. If the scanners pick up anything, report it immediately.

#777
All right. Let's go.

#778
Hey, down there.

#779
Could you give us a hand with this?

#780
TK-421, why aren't you at your post?

#781
TK-421, do you copy?

#782
Take over. We've got a bad transmitter. I'll see what I can do.

#783
Grrr!

#784
Between his howling and your blasting everything,

#785
it's a wonder the whole station doesn't know we're here.

#786
Bring 'em on. I prefer a straight fight to all this sneakin' around.

#787
We've found the computer outlet, sir.

#788
Plug in. He should be able to interpret the entire imperial network.

#789
He says he's found the controls to the power beam that's holding the ship here.

#790
He'll try to make the precise location appear on the monitor.

#791
The tractor beam is coupled to the main reactor in seven locations.

#792
A power loss at one of the terminals will allow the ship to leave.

#793
I don't think you boys can help. I must go alone.

#794
Whatever you say. I've done more than I bargained for on this trip already.

#795
I want to go with you.

#796
Be patient, Luke. Stay and watch over the droids.

#797
They must be delivered safely

#798
or other star systems will suffer the same fate as Alderaan.

#799
Your destiny lies along a different path from mine.

#800
The Force will be with you...

#801
Always.

#802
Argh argh argh!

#803
You said it, Chewie.

#804
Where did you dig up that old fossil?

#805
Ben is a great man.

#806
- Yeah. Great at getting us into trouble. - I didn't hear you give any ideas.

#807
Anything's better than just hangin' around waiting for 'em to pick us up.

#808
Who do you think...

#809
- What is it? - I'm afraid I'm not quite sure, sir.

#810
He says, "I've found her," and keeps repeating, "She's here."

#811
Who? Who has he found?

#812
- Princess Leia. - The princess? She's here?

#813
- Princess? - Where? Where is she?

#814
Princess? What's going on?

#815
Level 5, Detention Block AA-23.

#816
I'm afraid she's scheduled to be terminated.

#817
Oh, no. We've gotta do something.

#818
- What are you talking about? - The droids belong to her.

#819
She's the one in the message. We gotta help her.

#820
Don't get any funny ideas. The old man wants us to wait here.

#821
He didn't know she was here. Find a way into that detention block.

#822
- I'm not going anywhere. - They're gonna execute her.

#823
You said you didn't want to just wait to be captured. Now you want to stay?

#824
Marching into the detention area is not what I had in mind.

#825
- But they're gonna kill her. - Better her than me.

#826
She's rich.

#827
Argh!

#828
Rich?

#829
Rich, powerful. If you were to rescue her, the reward would be...

#830
- What? - Well, more wealth than you can imagine.

#831
I don't know. I can imagine quite a bit.

#832
- You'll get it. - I better.

#833
You will.

#834
All right, kid. You better be right about this.

#835
- All right. - What's your plan?

#836
3PO, hand me those binders there, will you?

#837
Okay.

#838
Now, I'm gonna put these on you.

#839
Grrr!

#840
Okay, Han, you put those on.

#841
Don't worry, Chewie. I think I know what he has in mind.

#842
Master Luke, sir, pardon me for asking,

#843
but what should R2 and I do if we're discovered here?

#844
- Lock the door. - And hope they don't have blasters.

#845
That isn't very reassuring.

#846
Grrr!

#847
517 to scan control. 517 to scan control.

#848
316, report to control.

#849
5-3 to upper bay door. 5-3 to upper bay door.

#850
I can't see a thing in this helmet.

#851
- This is not gonna work. - Why didn't you say so before?

#852
I did say so before.

#853
Where are you taking this thing?

#854
Prisoner transfer from Cell Block 1138.

#855
I wasn't notified.

#856
I'll have to clear it.

#857
Argh!

#858
- Look out! He's loose! - He'll tear us all apart!

#859
Look out.

#860
Aargh!

#861
We gotta find out which cell this princess of yours is in.

#862
Here it is. 2187. You go and get her.

#863
I'll hold them here.

#864
Everything's under control. Situation normal.

#865
What happened?

#866
Had a slight weapons malfunction,

#867
but everything's perfectly all right now.

#868
We're fine. We're all fine here now. Thank you.

#869
- How are you? - We're sending a squad up.

#870
Negative, negative. We have a reactor leak here now.

#871
Give us a few minutes to lock it down. Large leak, very dangerous.

#872
Who is this? What's your operating number?

#873
Boring conversation anyway. Luke, we're gonna have company!

#874
Aren't you a little short for a stormtrooper?

#875
Huh? Oh, the uniform.

#876
I'm Luke Skywalker. I'm here to rescue you.

#877
You're who?

#878
I'm here to rescue you. I've got your R2 unit.

#879
- I'm here with Ben Kenobi. - Ben Kenobi? Where is he?

#880
Come on.

#881
- He is here. - Obi-Wan Kenobi?

#882
- What makes you think so? - A tremor in the Force.

#883
The last time I felt it was in the presence of my old master.

#884
Surely he must be dead by now.

#885
Don't underestimate the Force.

#886
The Jedi are extinct. Their fire has gone out of the universe.

#887
You, my friend, are all that's left of their religion.

#888
Yes.

#889
We have an emergency alert in Detention Block AA-23.

#890
The princess? Put all sections on alert.

#891
Obi-Wan is here. The Force is with him.

#892
If you're right, he must not be allowed to escape.

#893
Escape is not his plan. I must face him alone.

#894
Argh!

#895
Get behind me. Get behind me.

#896
Watch your left. They went down the cell bay.

#897
Can't get out that way.

#898
Looks like you managed to cut off our only escape route.

#899
Maybe you'd like it back in your cell, Your Highness.

#900
- C-3PO. C-3PO. - Yes, sir?

#901
Are there any other ways out of the cell bay? We've been cut off.

#902
What was that? I didn't copy.

#903
I said all systems have been alerted to your presence, sir.

#904
The main entrance seems to be the only way in or out.

#905
All other information on your level is restricted.

#906
Open up in there. Open up in there.

#907
Oh, no.

#908
There isn't any other way out.

#909
Argh!

#910
I can't hold them off forever. Now what?

#911
This is some rescue.

#912
When you came in here, didn't you have a plan for getting out?

#913
He's the brains, sweetheart.

#914
Well, I didn't...

#915
- What the hell are you doing? - Somebody has to save our skins.

#916
Into the garbage chute, flyboy.

#917
- Get in there! - Aargh!

#918
Get in there, you big furry oaf. I don't care what you smell.

#919
Get in there, and don't worry about it.

#920
Wonderful girl.

#921
Either I'm gonna kill her, or I'm beginning to like her.

#922
Get in there.

#923
Wa-hoo!

#924
Argh!

#925
The garbage chute was a really wonderful idea.

#926
What an incredible smell you've discovered.

#927
Let's get out of here.

#928
- Get away from there. - No, wait.

#929
Forget it! I already tried it! It's magnetically sealed.

#930
Put that thing away! You're gonna get us all killed!

#931
Absolutely, Your Worship.

#932
Look, I had everything under control till you led us down here.

#933
It's not gonna take 'em long to figure out what happened to us.

#934
It could be worse.

#935
It's worse.

#936
- There's something alive in here. - That's your imagination.

#937
Something just moved past my leg.

#938
- Look. Did you see that? - What?

#939
Kid! Luke!

#940
Luke!

#941
Luke!

#942
Grab hold of this!

#943
Blast it! My gun's jammed.

#944
- Where? - Anywhere!

#945
Luke! Luke!

#946
Help him!

#947
- What happened? - I don't know.

#948
It just let go of me and disappeared.

#949
I got a bad feeling about this.

#950
The walls are moving!

#951
Don't just stand there. Try and brace it with something.

#952
Grrr!

#953
Help me.

#954
Wait a minute.

#955
3PO! Come in, 3PO!

#956
3PO!

#957
Where could he be?

#958
Take over. See to him.

#959
Look, there.

#960
They're madmen. They're heading for the prison level.

#961
If you hurry, you might catch them.

#962
Follow me.

#963
You stand guard.

#964
Come on.

#965
Oh.

#966
All this excitement has overrun the circuits in my counterpart here.

#967
If you don't mind, I'd like to take him down to maintenance.

#968
All right.

#969
Argh! Argh!

#970
3PO. Come in, 3PO.

#971
3PO.

#972
- Get on top. - I can't.

#973
Where could he be? 3PO.

#974
3PO, will you come in?

#975
They aren't here. Something must have happened to them.

#976
See if they've been captured. Hurry.

#977
One thing's for sure. We're all gonna be a lot thinner.

#978
- Get on top of it. - I'm trying.

#979
Thank goodness they haven't found them. Where could they be?

#980
"Use the comlink"? Oh, my.

#981
I forgot. I turned it off.

#982
- Are you there, sir? - 3PO?

#983
- We've had some problems. - Will you shut up and listen to me?

#984
Shut down all the garbage mashers on the detention level. Do you copy?

#985
Shut down all the garbage mashers on the detention level!

#986
Shut down all the garbage mashers on the detention level!

#987
No, shut them all down. Hurry! Oh, no.

#988
What?

#989
You did great, 3PO!

#990
Listen to them. They're dying, R2.

#991
Curse my metal body. I wasn't fast enough.

#992
It's all my fault. My poor master.

#993
We're all right. You did great!

#994
Hey! Open the pressure maintenance hatch

#995
on unit number... Where are we?

#996
3263827.

#997
If we can avoid any more female advice, we oughta be able to get out of here.

#998
Let's get moving.

#999
Grrr!

#1000
Where you goin'?
