Star Wars: Episode IV - A New Hope (1977) Edit

A long time.

A presence I've not felt since...

A small, one man fighter should be able to penetrate the outer defense.

A transport. I'm saved.

Absolutely, Your Worship.

According to the log, the crew abandoned ship right after takeoff.

Alderaan?

All flight crews, man your stations.

All other information on your level is restricted.

All pilots to your stations.

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

All right, men, load your weapons.

All right.

All right. Come on.

All right. Let's go.

All right. We'll check it out.

All right. Well, take care of yourself, Han.

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

Almost there.

Always.

An analysis of the plans provided by Princess Leia...

An elegant weapon...

An escape pod was jettisoned during the fighting, but no life forms were aboard.

And act on instinct.

And bring me the passengers! I want them alive!

And carries a firepower greater than half the starfleet.

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

And he was a good friend.

And I am C 3PO, human cyborg relations.

And I'm afraid my mission to bring you to Alderaan has failed.

And it's a private message for him.

And it's gonna cost you something extra.

And no questions asked.

And no transmissions were made.

And skim the surface to this point.

And that would lead them back... home.

And the red one. Come on.

And then you can go to the academy next year.

And this is my counterpart, R2 D2.

And were suddenly silenced.

And what of the rebellion?

And where you come from.

And why did you fry poor Greedo?

And will soon see the end of the rebellion.

Any attack by the rebels against this station would be a useless gesture...

Anyway, we should be at Alderaan about 0200 hours.

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

Are they away?

Are you all right? What's wrong?

Are you sure the computer can hit it?

Are you sure this thing is safe?

Are you sure you can handle this ship?

Aren't you a little short for a stormtrooper?

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

As if millions of voices suddenly cried out in terror...

As you wish.

At last. Where have you been?

At least the information in R2 is still intact.

Aunt Beru.

Because you won't get it.

Before the dark times...

Before the Empire.

Ben is a great man.

Ben? Ben Kenobi?

Besides, attacking that battle station ain't my idea of courage.

Besides, I know a few maneuvers. We'll lose 'em.

Between his howling and your blasting everything...

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

Biggs, Wedge, let's close it up.

Blast it, Biggs. Where are you?

Blast it!

Blast it! My gun's jammed.

Boy, am I glad to see you.

Boy, am I gonna get it.

Bring 'em on. I prefer a straight fight to sneakin' around.

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

But everything's perfectly all right now.

But from now on, you do as I tell you, okay?

But he'll do no better.

But I got a nice, easy charter.

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

But I've never seen anything to make me believe...

But I've never seen such devotion in a droid before.

But it also obeys your commands.

But my ship has fallen under attack...

But old Ben lives out beyond the Dune Sea.

But they estimate that it has been deserted for some time.

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

But what if this Obi Wan comes looking for him?

But what should R2 and I do if we're discovered here?

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

But why would imperial troops want to slaughter Jawas?

But with all we've been through, this R2 unit has become a bit eccentric.

But your uncle wouldn't allow it.

But, if you fail me again...

But, sir, nobody worries about upsetting a droid.

By the time this station is operational.

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

Check this side of the street.

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

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

Chewie, get us out of here!

Chewie, lock in the auxiliary power.

Clear Bay 327.

Close all outboard shields. Close all outboard shields.

Close the blast doors.

Close up formation.

Come along, R2.

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

Come here, you big coward.

Come on, buddy. We're not out of this yet.

Come on, R2. We're going.

Come on, red. Let's go.

Come on!

Come on!

Come on.

Come on.

Come on.

Come on. Let's go have a look.

Come on. Why don't you take a look around?

Come out, before somebody sees you.

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

Computer's locked. Getting a signal.

Continue with the operation. You may fire when ready.

Copy, Base One. Luke, take Red Two and Three.

Could you give us a hand with this?

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

Damn fool. I knew you were gonna say that.

Dangerous to your starfleet, Commander...

Dantooine.

Darth Vader. Only you could be so bold.

Death Star will be in range in five minutes.

Did you hear that?

Didn't we just leave this party?

Do you think they'll melt us down?

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

Don't act so surprised, Your Highness.

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

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

Don't everybody thank me at once.

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

Don't send one of these twerps.

Don't shoot. Don't shoot.

Don't talk to me of your mission either.

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

Don't underestimate the Force.

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

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

Don't you forget this.

Double front.

Dropped their cargo at the first sign

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

Enemy fighters coming your way.

Enough of this. Vader, release him.

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

Estimated time to firing range, 15 minutes.

Evacuate? In our moment of triumph?

Even I can't understand their logic at times.

Even I get boarded sometimes. Do you think I had a choice?

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

Even if I didn't, you don't think I'd be fool enough to stick around here, do ya?

Every bounty hunter in the galaxy will be looking for you...

Everything's under control. Situation normal.

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

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

Fear of this battle station.

Fifteen, Jabba. Don't push it.

Fighters above you, coming in.

Fighters coming in .3.

For a more civilized age.

For over a thousand generations, the Jedi knights...

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

From the right side of that deflection tower.

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

Get back to the ship!

Get behind me. Get behind me.

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

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

Get in there!

Get in there.

Get me a scanning crew in here. I want every part of this ship checked.

Get set up for your attack run.

Give me regular reports, please.

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

Go on, go on.

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

Going somewhere, Solo?

Gold Five to Red Leader, lost Tiree, lost Hutch.

Gold squadron, begin takeoff procedure.

Good against remotes is one thing.

Good against the living, that's something else.

Good.

Good.

Gotta get aboard. We'll hear all your stories when we get back, all right?

Governor Tarkin. I should have expected to find you holding Vader's leash.

Great shot, kid! That was one in a million!

Great, kid. Don't get cocky.

Had a slight weapons malfunction...

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

Han, I can't make exceptions.

Han, my boy, you disappoint me.

Han, my boy, you're the best.

Hang on back there.

Hang on tight, R2. You've got to come back.

Hang on, R2.

Harvest is when I need you the most.

Has demonstrated a weakness in the battle station.

Have you now.

Have you seen Luke this morning?

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

He betrayed and murdered your father.

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

He can go about his business.

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

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

He excels at that, sir.

He feared you might follow old Obi Wan...

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

He might be able to play back the entire recording.

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

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

He says he belongs to someone called Obi Wan Kenobi.

He says he's the property of Obi Wan Kenobi, a resident of these parts...

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

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

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

He suggests that if you remove the bolt...

He tricked me into going this way...

He was the best starpilot in the galaxy...

He won't.

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

He's found the controls to the power beam that's holding the ship here.

He's got to follow his own path. No one can choose it for him.

He's heading for that small moon.

He's me.

He's not dead.

He's on me tight. I can't shake him.

He's the brains, sweetheart.

Hear me, baby? Hold together.

Hello there.

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

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

Help me.

Help! Please help!

Help. I think I'm melting. This is all your fault.

Helped the Empire hunt down and destroy the Jedi knights.

Her resistance to the mind probe is considerable.

Here he comes.

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

Here they come.

Here they come.

Here, hold this.

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

Here's where the fun begins.

Hey, down there.

Hey, Luke!

Hey, Luke.

Hey, what are you trying to push on us?

Hey! Open the pressure maintenance hatch on unit number... Where are we?

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

His computer's off.

Hokey religions and ancient weapons are no match for a blaster at your side, kid.

Hold them off. Angle the deflector shields while I charge up the main guns.

Hold tight. Switch your deflectors on.

Hold up here and wait for my signal to start your run.

Holding her is dangerous.

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

How did we get into this mess?

How long before you can jump to light speed?

How long have you had these droids?

How will the emperor maintain control without the bureaucracy?

Hurry up, Luke. Quick.

Hurry, Luke. They're coming in much faster this time.

I ain't in this for your revolution, and I'm not in it for you, Princess.

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

I call it luck.

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

I can take you as far as Anchorhead.

I can't believe he's gone.

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

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

I can't hold them.

I can't see a thing in this helmet.

I can't shake him.

I can't understand how we got by those troops. I thought we were dead.

I care.

I copy, Gold Leader. Move into position.

I did feel something. I could almost see the remote.

I did say so before.

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

I don't know anyone named Obi Wan...

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

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

I don't know who you are or where you came from...

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

I don't know. I really thought he'd change his mind.

I don't like the look of this.

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

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

I don't think he exists anymore. He died about the same time as your father.

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

I don't think so, sir.

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

I expect to be well paid. I'm in it for the money.

I felt a great disturbance in the Force...

I find your lack of faith disturbing.

I forgot. I turned it off.

I got a bad feeling about this.

I got some old debts I gotta pay off with this stuff.

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

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

I have a very bad feeling about this.

I have chosen to test this station's destructive power...

I have placed information vital to the survival of the rebellion...

I have something here for you.

I have to go finish cleaning those droids.

I have traced the rebel spies to her.

I have you now.

I haven't gone by the name of Obi Wan...

I heartily agree with you, sir.

I hope the old man got the tractor beam down.

I just knew you'd come back.

I knew there was more to you than money.

I need a droid who understands the binary language of moisture vaporators.

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

I only hope that when the data's analyzed a weakness can be found.

I really don't know how.

I recognized your foul stench when I was brought on board.

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

I see your point, sir.

I see, sir.

I sense something...

I shall become more powerful than you can possibly imagine.

I stumbled across a recording while I was cleaning him.

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

I suggest we use it.

I suggest you try it again, Luke.

I take orders from just one person... me.

I think he's searching for his former master...

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

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

I think she was a passenger on our last voyage.

I think that R2 unit might have been stolen.

I think those new droids are gonna work out fine.

I think we better get indoors.

I think we took a wrong turn.

I think you overestimate their chances.

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

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

I told you I'd outrun them.

I told you she would never consciously betray the rebellion.

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

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

I want to come with you to Alderaan.

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

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

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

I wasn't gonna let you get all the credit and take all the reward.

I wasn't notified.

I wish I'd known him.

I wonder if he really cares about anything... or anybody.

I wonder if he's related to Ben.

I wonder who she is.

I would like you to be my guest at a ceremony...

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

I'll be right there, Aunt Beru.

I'll be right there.

I'll be there in a few minutes.

I'll have one of those.

I'll have to clear it.

I'll hold them here.

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

I'll take them myself. Cover me.

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

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

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

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

I'm going to regret this.

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

I'm hit, but not bad. R2, see what you can do with it.

I'm lucky I found you first.

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

I'm never coming back to this planet again.

I'm not going that way.

I'm not going to Alderaan.

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

I'm on it.

I'm on the leader.

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

I'm ready for anything.

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

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

I'm talking about the big Corellian ships now.

I'm trying not to, kid.

I've been looking forward to this for a long time.

I've been waitin' for you.

I've been waiting for you, Obi Wan. We meet again at last.

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

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

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

I've just about had enough of you.

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

I've just received word that the emperor has dissolved the council permanently.

I've lost R2.

I've made a lot of special modifications myself.

I've outrun imperial starships.

I've seen a lot of strange stuff...

If money is all that you love, then that's what you'll receive.

If the rebels have obtained a complete technical readout of this station...

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

If there were any, they must also have jettisoned.

If these new droids work out, I want to apply to the academy this year.

If they traced the robots here, they may have learned who they sold them to...

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

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

If word of this gets out, it could generate sympathy for the rebellion in the senate.

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

If you give it to me, I might forget I found you.

If you hurry, you might catch them.

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

In a way, you have determined the choice of the planet...

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

In the morning, I want them on the south ridge, working on those condensers.

Into the memory systems of this R2 unit.

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

Is it some kind of local trouble?

Is there anything I might do to help?

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

It binds the galaxy together.

It could be worse.

It has seen the end of Kenobi...

It is possible, however unlikely...

It just isn't fair.

It just let go of me and disappeared.

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

It must be a decoy. Several escape pods have been jettisoned.

It must have short circuited.

It surrounds us and penetrates us.

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

It'll be just like Beggars Canyon back home.

It'll be like old times, Luke. They'll never stop us.

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

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

It's a small thermal exhaust port right below the main port.

It's a wonder you're still alive.

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

It's all my fault. My poor master.

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

It's away!

It's more like... suicide.

It's much too rocky.

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

It's not good business.

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

It's nothing. Outgassing. Don't worry about it.

It's our only hope.

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

It's them. Blast them.

It's too dangerous with the Sandpeople around. We'll have to wait till morning.

It's too dangerous with the Sandpeople around. We'll have to wait till morning.

It's too dangerous.

It's too late.

It's worse.

Its defenses are designed around a direct large scale assault.

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

Jabba, next time you wanna talk to me, come see me yourself.

Jabba, you're a wonderful human being.

Jabba's put a price on your head so large

Jabba's through with you.

Just hold them off for a few seconds.

Just Luke.

Just you reconsider playing that message for him.

Keep half your group out of range for the next run.

Keep your eyes open for those fighters.

Leave that to me.

Leave that to me.

Let go, Luke.

Let him go. Stay on the leader.

Let me see your identification.

Let's get moving.

Let's get out of here.

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

Let's see if we can't figure out what you are, my little friend...

Level 5, Detention Block AA 23.

Listen to them. They're dying, R2.

Lock S foils in attack position.

Look at the size of that thing.

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

Look out.

Look out.

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

Look, sir. Droids.

Look, Your Worshipfulness, let's get one thing straight.

Look.

Looks like an imperial cruiser. Our passengers are hotter than I thought.

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

Loosen up!

Lord Vader will provide us with the location of the rebel fortress...

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

Luke, I'm shutting the power down.

Luke, pull up!

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

Luke, the Force will be with you.

Luke, trust me.

Luke, trust your feelings.

Luke!

Luke! Luke!

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

Main launch tubes opening, sir.

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

Master Luke is your rightful owner now.

Master Luke, sir, pardon me for asking...

May the Force be with you.

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

Mos Eisley spaceport.

Move along. Move along.

My father will know how to retrieve it.

My scope shows the tower, but I can't see the exhaust port.

My scope's negative. I don't see anything.

My scope's negative. I don't see anything.

Myself, the boy, two droids...

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

Negative. It didn't go in.

Next to the power of the Force.

Nice. Come on.

Ninety four.

No matter what technical data they've obtained.

No more adventures.

No reward is worth this.

No star system will dare oppose the emperor now.

No, I don't like you either.

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

No, it's not. I used to bull's eye womp rats in my T 16 back home.

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

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

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

No. Alderaan is peaceful. We have no weapons.

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

Not a bad bit of rescuing, huh?

Not as clumsy or random as a blaster.

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

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

Not on this planet, anyway.

Not on your life. That droid and I have been through a lot.

Not the local bulk cruisers, mind you.

Not this ship, sister.

Not to this battle station.

Now be careful, R2.

Now come on. Get to it.

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

Now I am the master.

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

Now the Jedi are all but extinct.

Now, I'm gonna put these on you.

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

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

Now's our chance. Go!

Obi Wan is here. The Force is with him.

Obi Wan Kenobi?

Obi Wan Kenobi. I wonder if he means old Ben Kenobi.

Obi Wan.

Of an Imperial starship?

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

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

Oh, my. R2, can you hear me?

Oh, no.

Oh, no. We've gotta do something.

Oh, the uniform.

Oh, yeah. Well...

Okay, fifteen percent.

Okay, Han, you put those on.

Okay, you guys got yourselves a ship.

Okay.

Okay.

Okay.

Okay. Let's go.

Old data. Pay it no mind.

On some damn fool idealistic crusade, like your father did.

On your home planet of Alderaan.

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

Only a master of evil, Darth.

Only a precise hit will set up a chain reaction.

Only imperial stormtroopers are so precise.

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

Open main launch tubes.

Open the blast doors. Open the blast doors.

Open up in there. Open up in there.

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

Or given you clairvoyance enough to find the rebels' hidden fortress...

Or other star systems will suffer the same fate as Alderaan.

Or teleport me off this rock.

Or there'll be hell to pay.

Or they'd have a tighter defense.

Or this is gonna be a short trip. Hit it!

Orbiting the planet at maximum velocity.

Our last master was Captain Antilles.

Our position's correct, except no Alderaan.

Our scout ships have reached Dantooine.

Over here!

Over my dead body.

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

Pardon me for asking, sir, but what good are snub fighters against that?

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

Perhaps she would respond to an alternative form of persuasion.

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

Plus 15 when we reach Alderaan.

Princess Leia, before your execution...

Princess? What's going on?

Prisoner transfer from Cell Block 1138.

Protocol? It's my primary function, sir. I am well versed in all the customs...

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

Quick.

Quickly. They're on the move.

R2 D2, it is you! It is you!

R2, try and increase the power.

R2?

Rebel base in range.

Rebel base, 30 seconds and closing.

Rebel base, three minutes and closing.

Red boys, this is Red Leader.

Red Leader, this is Base One.

Red Leader, we're right above you.

Red Six, can you see Red Five?

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

Remember, the Force will be with you always.

Rendezvous at mark 6.1.

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

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

Rich?

Right here, Jabba.

Right with you, boss.

Right.

Run, Luke, run.

Sandpeople. Or worse.

Say about 20 guns, some on the surface, some on the towers.

Say something. You can repair him, can't you?

Secret mission? What plans?

See if they've been captured. Hurry.

Send a detachment down to retrieve them. See to it personally, Commander.

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

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

Seventeen?

Several fighters have broken off from the main group. Come with me.

Several transmissions were beamed to this ship by rebel spies.

She lied. She lied to us.

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

She may yet be of some use to us.

She must have hidden the plans in the escape pod.

She'll be all right.

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

She'll make .5 past light speed.

She'll make .5 past light speed.

She's fast enough for you, old man.

She's rich.

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

Should I have your ship standing by?

Should I have?

Shut down all the garbage mashers on the detention level!

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

Signing the order to terminate your life.

Since you are reluctant to provide us with the location of the rebel base...

Since, oh, before you were born.

Sir, if any of my circuits or gears will help, I'll gladly donate them.

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

Sir, Luke is the best bush pilot in the outer rim territories.

So, for an extra twenty percent...

So, you got your reward and you're just leaving, then?

Solo, come out of there, Solo!

Some kind of asteroid collision.

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

Something just moved past my leg.

Sometimes I'm amazed we're in as good condition as we are...

Squad leaders...

Stabilize your rear deflectors. Watch for enemy fighters.

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

Stand by.

Standby alert. Death Star approaching.

Stay in attack formation.

Stay there. I just lost my starboard engine.

Still, she's got a lot of spirit.

Stop that ship. Blast them.

Stretch out with your feelings.

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

Sure. Go ahead.

Sure. There's more than enough droids.

Surely he must be dead by now.

Switch all power to front deflector screen.

Switch to targeting computer.

Take her away!

Take these two to the garage. I want them cleaned up before dinner.

Take this away.

Target's coming up.

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

Terminate her immediately.

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

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

That doesn't sound too hard.

That isn't very reassuring.

That malfunctioning little twerp. This is all his fault.

That R2 unit has always been a problem.

That they might find a weakness and exploit it.

That will make this battle station operational.

That wizard's just a crazy old man.

That'll be destroyed first.

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

That's 'cause a droid don't pull people's arms out of their sockets when they lose.

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

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

That's how we came to be in your service, if you take my meaning, sir.

That's impossible, even for a computer.

That's impossible.

That's no moon.

That's right. Yeah.

That's the idea.

That's what I'm afraid of.

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

That's what your uncle told you. He didn't hold with your father's ideals.

The ability to destroy a planet is insignificant...

The approach will not be easy.

The battle station is heavily shielded...

The circle is now complete.

The Death Star plans are not in the main computer.

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

The Empire doesn't consider a small, one man fighter to be any threat...

The entire starfleet couldn't destroy the whole planet.

The exhaust port is marked and locked in.

The final checkout is completed. All systems are operational.

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

The Force is strong with this one.

The Force is what gives a Jedi his power.

The Force will be with you...

The Force?

The garbage chute was a really wonderful idea.

The guns. They've stopped.

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

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

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

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

The moon with the rebel base will be in range in 30 minutes.

The more star systems will slip through your fingers.

The more you tighten your grip, Tarkin...

The one you're carrying inside your rusty innards.

The one you're carrying inside your rusty innards.

The one you've just been playing.

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

The princess? Put all sections on alert.

The Rebel Alliance is too well equipped.

The rebel base is on a moon on the far side.

The rebel base will be in firing range in seven minutes.

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

The regional governors now have direct control over their territories.

The Sandpeople are easily startled...

The shaft is ray shielded, so you'll have to use proton torpedoes.

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

The target area is only two meters wide.

The technical readouts of that battle station.

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

Then man your ships, and may the Force be with you.

Then name the system.

Then the droid does belong to you.

There are several creatures approaching from the southeast.

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

There isn't any other way out.

There wasn't anything you could have done.

There you go.

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

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

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

There's a heavy fire zone. Red Five, where are you?

There's gotta be something you can do.

There's no mystical energy field controls my destiny.

There's no one here.

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

There's not much to tell.

There's nothing for me here now.

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

There's one all powerful force controlling everything.

There's one. Set for stun.

There's still two more.

There's too much interference. Red Five, can you see them?

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

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

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

These astro droids are getting quite out of hand.

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

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

They could use a good pilot like you. You're turning your back on them.

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

They found the remains of a rebel base...

They let us go. It's the only explanation for the ease of our escape.

They must be delivered safely...

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

They say it's quite a thing to see.

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

They're coming in too fast!

They're coming in. Three marks at 210.

They're coming through.

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

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

They're more dangerous than you realize.

They're not gonna get me without a fight.

They're not much bigger than two meters.

They're on Dantooine.

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

They've just made the jump into hyperspace.

This bickering is pointless.

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

This had better work.

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

This is it.

This is madness.

This is our most desperate hour.

This is Red Five. I'm going in.

This is ridiculous.

This is some rescue. When you came in here, didn't you have a plan for getting out?

This is the weapon of a Jedi knight.

This little droid.

This little one's not worth the effort.

This R2 unit has a bad motivator. Look.

This R2 unit of yours seems a bit beat up. You want a new one?

This station is now the ultimate power in the universe.

This time, let go your conscious self...

This way is much easier.

This will be a day long remembered.

This year we'll make enough on the harvest to hire more hands...

Thought he should have stayed here and not gotten involved.

TK 421, do you copy?

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

To your stations. Come with me.

Traveling through hyperspace ain't like dustin' crops, boy.

Turn the ship around.

Turn to .05. We'll cover for you.

Uncle Owen, what about that one?

Uncle Owen.

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

Use the Force, Luke.

Vader was seduced by the dark side of the Force.

Very interesting.

Very similar to your vaporators in most respects.

Wait a minute. Where are you going?

Wait a second.

Wait out by the speeder. We don't want any trouble.

Wait, Luke.

Wait! They'll hear!

Wait. What's that?

Wake up. Wake up!

Watch your left. They went down the cell bay.

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

Watch yourself. Increase speed, full throttle.

We are opening the magnetic field.

We are preparing to orbit the planet.

We can pay you 2,000 now...

We could almost buy our own ship for that.

We count 30 rebel ships, but they're so small they're evading our turbolasers.

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

We don't need to see his identification.

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

We have an emergency alert in Detention Block AA 23.

We have no time for sorrows, Commander.

We intercepted no transmissions.

We must be cautious.

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

We should be able to see it by now.

We stopped.

We think they may be splitting up. They may be on Level 5 and 6 now, sir.

We will then crush the rebellion with one swift stroke.

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

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

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

We'll have to destroy them ship to ship.

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

We're coming up on Alderaan.

We're coming up on their sentry ships.

We're doomed.

We're doomed.

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

We're going in full throttle. That ought to keep those fighters off our back.

We're in position. I'm going to cut across the axis and draw their fire.

We're in the main hangar across from the ship.

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

We've analyzed their attack, sir, and there is a danger.

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

We've come out of hyperspace into a meteor shower...

We've entered the Alderaan system.

We've found the computer outlet, sir.

We've picked up a new group of signals.

Well, I didn't...

Well, I'm not going that way.

Well, my little friend...

Well, not at making them interesting, anyway.

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

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

Were the guardians of peace and justice in the old Republic...

Were you on a Starcruiser or...

What a desolate place this is.

What a piece of junk.

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

What an incredible smell you've discovered.

What are you looking at? I know what I'm doing.

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

What course shall we set?

What do you mean?

What do you think of her, Han?

What do you think? You think a princess and a guy like me...

What good will it do us if he gets himself killed? Come on.

What good's a reward if you ain't around to use it?

What happened?

What have you done with those plans?

What if everyone who smuggled for me

What makes you think that?

What mission? What are you talking about?

What the...

What was that?

What was that? I didn't copy.

What with the rebellion and all.

What?

What?

What's so important? What's he carrying?

What's that?

What's wrong with him now?

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

When I left you, I was but the learner.

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

Where are those transmissions you intercepted?

Where are you taking this... thing?

Where could he be? 3PO.

Where did you dig up that old fossil?

Where do you think you're going?

Where do you think you're going?

Where you goin'?

Where'd she go? Bring her back. Play back the entire message.

Where'd she go? Bring her back. Play back the entire message.

Which should destroy the station.

Which way?

While I make the calculations for the jump to light speed.

Who do you think...

Who drop their shipments at the first sign of an Imperial cruiser.

Who is she? She's beautiful.

Who is this? What's your operating number?

Who? Who has he found?

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

Why are we still moving towards it?

Why don't you come with us? You're pretty good in a fight. We could use ya.

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

Why haven't you paid me...

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

Will somebody get this big walking carpet out of my way?

Will this never end?

With all we've been through...

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

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

Wonderful girl.

Wookiees are known to do that.

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

Yeah, we'll take that red one.

Yeah. Some of the other guys were telling me about it.

Yes, Greedo. As a matter of fact, I was just going to see your boss.

Yes, sir.

Yes, sir.

Yes, sir.

Yes, sir.

Yes, sir.

Yes?

You bet I could. I'm not such a bad pilot.

You came in that thing? You're braver than I thought.

You can forget your troubles with those imperial slugs.

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

You can tell that to Jabba. He may only take your ship.

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

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

You can't win, Darth. If you strike me down...

You did great, 3PO!

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

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

You don't know how hard I found it...

You don't need to see his identification.

You got a lot of carbon scoring here. Looks like you boys have seen a lot of action.

You got something jammed in here real good.

You in, kid? Okay, stay sharp.

You know of the rebellion against the Empire?

You know what's about to happen, what they're up against.

You know, sometimes I amaze even myself.

You may fire when ready.

You mean the next semester before the harvest?

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

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

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

You must understand I need you here, Luke.

You must use the information in this R2 unit to help plan the attack.

You okay, R2?

You really think we're gonna find a pilot here to take us to Alderaan?

You said it, Chewie.

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

You see? You can do it.

You should have paid him when you had the chance.

You should not have come back.

You stand guard.

You switched off your targeting computer. What's wrong?

You think I had a choice?

You weren't on any mercy mission this time.

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

You won't be able to go near a civilized system.

You worry about those fighters. I'll worry about the tower.

You would prefer another target? A military target?

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

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

You'd better get on with your exercises.

You'd have been killed too...

You'll be deactivated for sure.

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

You're all clear, kid. Now let's blow this thing and go home.

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

You're my only hope.

You're on the planet that it's farthest from.

You're required to maneuver straight down this trench...

You're safe. When we heard about Alderaan, we feared the worst.

You're sure the homing beacon is secure aboard their ship?

You're who?

You've got one on your tail.

Your destiny lies along a different path from mine.

Your droids... they'll have to wait outside. We don't want them here.

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

Your father wanted you to have this when you were old enough...

Your friend is quite a mercenary.

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

Your powers are weak, old man.

Your sad devotion to that ancient religion...

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

3PO, will you come in?

3PO!

3PO!

3PO! Come in, 3PO!

3PO! Come in, 3PO!

3PO.

3PO.

10,000, all in advance.

10,000?

17,000. Those guys must really be desperate.

517 to scan control. 517 to scan control.

3263827.

All right. What's your plan?

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

All wings report in. Red 10 standing by.

Are you safe? For the moment.

Biggs! I don't believe it. How are ya?

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

But they're gonna kill her. Better her than me.

Can you speak Bocce? Of course. It's like a second language.

Can't get out that way. You cut off our only escape route.

Chewie, come here. Listen.

Coming up? I'll be up there with you.

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

Did you find any droids? No, sir.

Do you know what's going on? Maybe it's another drill.

Eject. I can hold it.

Fall in. Fall in. Watch your back, Luke.

Find the controls to extend the bridge. I think I just blasted it.

Fine. Let's go. Luke!

Get away from there. No, wait.

Get on top. I can't.

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

Have I got stories to tell you. Skywalker.

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

He doesn't like you. I'm sorry.

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

Heavy fire, boss, 23 degrees. I see it. Stay low.

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

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

I copy, Gold Leader. They came from behind.

I copy, Gold Leader. We're starting for the target shaft.

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

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

I want to go with you. Be patient, Luke. Watch the droids.

I'll be careful then. You'll be dead!

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

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

It followed us. No. It's a short range fighter.

It's a space station. It's too big to be a space station.

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

It's no good. I can't maneuver. Stay on target.

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

It's not over yet. It is for me, sister.

Kept babbling on about his mission. Oh, no.

Kept babbling on about his mission. Oh, no.

Let her loose. They're right behind me. Almost there.

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

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

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

Look. Did you see that? What?

Luke, it's too late! Blast the door, kid!

No sign of any... Wait. Coming in .35. I see them.

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

Pick up your visual scanning. Here they come.

Princess Leia. The princess? She's here?

Princess? Where is she?

Pull up! No, I'm all right...

Red Seven standing by. Red Three standing by.

Red Six standing by. Red Nine standing by.

Red Two standing by. Red 11 standing by.

Set your course for Alderaan. With pleasure.

Thanks, Wedge. Good shooting, Wedge.

That oughta hold them for a while. Quick. We've got to get across.

That's it. We did it. We did it.

The ship all right? Seems okay, if we can get to it.

The walls are moving! Try and brace it with something.

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

There she is. C 3PO, do you copy?

There's something alive in here. That's your imagination.

This is it, boys. Red Leader, this is Gold Leader.

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

This is Red Two flying toward you. Red Three standing by.

Uncle Owen. Yeah?

We'll get to work on him right away. You must repair him.

We've had some problems. Shut up and listen to me.

We've lost the lateral controls. Don't worry. She'll hold together.

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

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

What happened? I don't know.

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

What is it? Your father's lightsaber.

What kept you? We ran into some old friends.

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

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

What? Well, more well than you can imagine.

What? You're far too trusting.

What? How? Destroyed by the Empire.

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

What's the cargo? Only passengers...

What's wrong? It's Han.

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

Where is it? That's what I'm trying to tell you.

Where? Anywhere!

You all right? A little cooked, but I'm okay.

You call that easy? They're tracking us.

You can call me Luke. I see, Sir Luke.

You can go about your business. Move along.

You can't do any more good back there. Sorry.

You fought in the Clone Wars? Yes.

You know him? Of course I know him.

You mean it controls your actions? Partially.

You'll do all right. Thank you, sir. I'll try.

You'll get it. I better.

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

You've picked one up. Watch it. I can't see it.

"Use the comlink"? Oh, my.

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

"What message"?
