I can't get involved! I've got work to do! It's not that I like the Empire, I hate it, but there's nothing I can do about it right now. It's such a long way from here. All right. Well, take care of yourself, Han. I guess that's what you're best at, ain't it?

The more you tighten your grip, Tarkin, the more star systems will slip through your fingers. I need your help, Luke. She needs your help. I'm getting too old for this sort of thing. Don't underestimate the Force.

What!?

What good is a reward if you ain't around to use it? Besides, attacking that battle station ain't my idea of courage. It's more like…suicide. Kid, I've flown from one side of this galaxy to the other. I've seen a lot of strange stuff, but I've never seen anything to make me believe there's one all-powerful Force controlling everything. There's no mystical energy field that controls my destiny. It's all a lot of simple tricks and nonsense.

1. She must have hidden the plans in the escape pod. Send a detachment down to retrieve them, and see to it personally, Commander. There'll be no one to stop us this time!

3. The Force is strong with this one. I have you now.

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

Alderaan? I'm not going to Alderaan. I've got to go home. It's late, I'm in for it as it is. The Force is strong with this one. I have you now. What!? I want to come with you to Alderaan. There's nothing for me here now. I want to learn the ways of the Force and be a Jedi, like my father before me.

• What?!
• Oh God, my uncle. How am I ever gonna explain this?
• No! Alderaan is peaceful. We have no weapons. You can't possibly…

A tremor in the Force. The last time I felt it was in the presence of my old master. Leave that to me. Send a distress signal, and inform the Senate that all on board were killed. Your eyes can deceive you. Don't trust them.

She must have hidden the plans in the escape pod. Send a detachment down to retrieve them, and see to it personally, Commander. There'll be no one to stop us this time! Look, I can take you as far as Anchorhead. You can get a transport there to Mos Eisley or wherever you're going.

But with the blast shield down, I can't even see! How am I supposed to fight? I need your help, Luke. She needs your help. I'm getting too old for this sort of thing. But with the blast shield down, I can't even see! How am I supposed to fight?

You're all clear, kid. Let's blow this thing and go home! Red Five standing by. I have traced the Rebel spies to her. Now she is my only link to finding their secret base. I need your help, Luke. She needs your help. I'm getting too old for this sort of thing.

You mean it controls your actions? Hey, Luke! May the Force be with you. In my experience, there is no such thing as luck. Look, I can take you as far as Anchorhead. You can get a transport there to Mos Eisley or wherever you're going.
