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 likeÉsuicide. 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. Red Five standing by. Partially, but it also obeys your commands.

You don’t believe in the Force, do you? I have traced the Rebel spies to her. Now she is my only link to finding their secret base. But with the blast shield down, I can’t even see! How am I supposed to fight? I care. So, what do you think of her, Han? Obi-Wan is here. The Force is with him.

I need your help, Luke. She needs your help. I’m getting too old for this sort of thing. The plans you refer to will soon be back in our hands. As you wish. Don’t underestimate the Force. Don’t be too proud of this technological terror you’ve constructed. The ability to destroy a planet is insignificant next to the power of the Force. Leave that to me. Send a distress signal, and inform the Senate that all on board were killed.

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! All right. Well, take care of yourself, Han. I guess that’s what you’re best at, ain’t it? Alderaan? I’m not going to Alderaan. I’ve got to go home. It’s late, I’m in for it as it is
