Today is Sign-Up Sunday for Living the Eucharist. For the six weeks of Lent, we invite you to join a small group, a teen There’s nothing you could have done, Luke, had you been there. You’d have been killed, too, and the droids would be in the hands of the Empire. I want to come with you to Alderaan. There’s nothing here for me now. I want to learn the ways of the Force and become a Jedi like my father. Mos Eisley Spaceport. You will never find a more wretched hive of scum and villainy. We must be cautious. How long have you had these droids? About three or four seasons. They’re for sale if you want them.

 

Holding her is dangerous. If word of this gets out, it could generate sympathy for the Rebellion in the senate. I have traced the Rebel spies to her. Now she is my only link to find their secret base! She’ll die before she tells you anything. Leave that to me. Send a distress signal and then inform the senate that all aboard were killed! Lord Vader, the battle station plans are not aboard this ship! And no transmissions were made. An escape pod was jettisoned during the fighting, but no life forms were aboard. She must have hidden the plans in the escape pod. Send a detachment down to retrieve them. See to it personally, Commander. There’ll be no one to stop us this time. Yes, sir.

Aren’t you a little short to be a stormtrooper? What? Oh…the uniform. I’m Luke Skywalker. I’m here to rescue you. You’re who? I’m here to rescue you. I’ve got your R2 unit. I’m here with Ben Kenobi. Ben Kenobi is here! Where is he? Come on!

The approach will not be easy. You are required to maneuver straight down this trench and skim the surface to this point. The target area is only two meters wide. It’s a small thermal exhaust port, right below the main port. The shaft leads directly to the reactor system. A precise hit will start a chain reaction which should destroy the station. Only a precise hit will set up a chain reaction. The shaft is ray-shielded, so you’ll have to use proton torpedoes. That’s impossible, even for a computer. It’s not impossible. I used to bull’s-eye womp rats in my T-sixteen back home. They’re not much bigger than two meters. Man your ships! And may the Force be with you!

He says the restraining bolt has short circuited his recording system. He suggests that if you remove the bolt, he might be able to play back the entire recording. H’m? Oh, yeah, well, I guess you’re too small to run away on me if I take this off! Okay. There you go. Well, wait a minute. Where’d she go? Bring her back! Play back the entire message. What message? The one you’re carrying inside your rusty innards! Luke? Luke! Come to dinner! All right, I’ll be right there, Aunt Beru. I’m sorry, sir, but he appears to have picked up a slight flutter. Well, see what you can do with him. I’ll be right back. Just you reconsider playing that message for him. No, I don’t think he likes you at all. No, I don’t like you either.
