General Kenobi: Years ago, you served my father in the Clone Wars; now he begs you to help him in his struggle against the Empire. I regret that I am unable to present my father's request to you in person; but my ship has fallen under attack and I'm afraid my mission to bring you to Alderaan has failed. I've placed information vital to the survival of the rebellion into the memory systems of this R2 unit. My father will know how to retrieve it. You must see this droid safely delivered to him on Alderaan. This is our most desperate hour. Help me, Obi-Wan Kenobi; you're my only hope. |
| Gold Five | Stay on target. |
| Darth Vader |
|
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. |
| Obi-Wan Kenobi |
|
Your father's light saber. This is the weapon of a Jedi Knight. Not as clumsy or random as a blaster; an elegant weapon for a more civilized age. For over a thousand generations, the Jedi Knights were the guardians of peace and justice in the Old Republic. Before the dark times... before the Empire. |
| Han Solo |
|
Hokey religions and ancient weapons are no match for a good blaster at your side, kid. |
| Dr. Evazen | He doesn't like you. | |
| Luke Skywalker |
|
Sorry. |
| Dr. Evazen | I don't like you either. You just watch yourself. We're wanted men. I have the death sentence on twelve systems. |
| Obi-Wan Kenobi |
|
That's no moon, it's a space station. |
| Princess Leia Organa |
|
Will someone get this big walking carpet out of my way? |
| Princess Leia Organa |
|
Aren't you a little short for a stormtrooper? |
| Darth Vader |
|
I've been waiting for you, Obi-Wan. We meet again, at last. The circle is now complete. When I left you, I was but the learner; now I am the master. |
| Obi-Wan Kenobi |
|
Only a master of evil, Darth. |
| Darth Vader |
|
[Zeroing in on Luke's X-Wing] I have you now! |
| Darth Vader |
|
[Suddenly loses one of his wingmen] What? |
| Han Solo |
|
YAHOOO! |
| Vader's 2nd Wing Man | Look out! [Han shoots the second wing man, who goes on to collide with Vader and sends him flying off] | |
| Han Solo |
|
You're all clear, kid, now let's blow this thing and go home! [Luke fires the torpedo into the exhaust vent; the Millenium Falcon leads the remaining Rebel fleet safely away from the exploding Death Star] |
| Obi-Wan Kenobi |
|
These aren't the droids you're looking for. |
| Stormtrooper |
|
These aren't the droids we're looking for. |
| Obi-Wan Kenobi |
|
In my experience, there's no such thing as "luck". |
| Luke Skywalker |
|
What a piece of junk! |
| Obi-Wan Kenobi |
|
Who's the more foolish? The fool or the fool who follows him? |
| Luke Skywalker |
|
But I was gonna go to Tosche station to pick up some power converters! |
| Obi-Wan Kenobi |
|
Only Imperial Stormtroopers are so precise. |
| Darth Vader |
|
He is here. |
| Grand Moff Tarkin |
|
Obi-Wan Kenobi. What makes you think so? |
| Darth Vader |
|
A tremor in the Force. The last time I felt it was in the presence of my old master. |
| Grand Moff Tarkin |
|
Surely he must be dead by now. |
| Darth Vader |
|
Don't underestimate the Force. |
| Grand Moff Tarkin |
|
The Jedi are extinct. Their fire has gone out of the universe. You, my friend, are all that's left of their religion. [An intercom beeps, which Tarkin answers] Yes? |
| Intercom | We've received an alert in Section AA23. | |
| Grand Moff Tarkin |
|
The princess? Put all stations on alert! |
| Darth Vader |
|
Obi-Wan is here. The Force is with him. |
| Grand Moff Tarkin |
|
If you are right, he must not be allowed to escape. |
| Darth Vader |
|
Escape is not his plan. I must face him, alone. |
| Obi-Wan Kenobi |
|
Mos Eisley spaceport: You will never find a more wretched hive of scum and villainy. We must be cautious. |
| Luke Skywalker |
|
I'm Luke Skywalker, I'm here to rescue you. |
| Luke Skywalker |
|
Do you really think we're gonna find a pilot here that'll take us to Alderaan? |
| Obi-Wan Kenobi |
|
Most of the best freighter pilots are to be found here, only watch your step... This place can be a little rough. |
| Luke Skywalker |
|
I'm ready for anything. |
| Han Solo |
|
Han Solo. I'm captain of the Millennium Falcon. Chewie here tells me you're lookin' for passage to the Alderaan System. |
| Obi-Wan Kenobi |
|
Yes indeed, if it's a fast ship. |
| Han Solo |
|
Fast ship? You've never heard of the Millennium Falcon? |
| Obi-Wan Kenobi |
|
Should I have? |
| Han Solo |
|
It's the ship that made the Kessel Run in less than twelve parsecs. I've outrun Imperial starships; not the local bulk cruisers, mind you, I'm talking about the big Corellian ships now... She's fast enough for you, old man. |
| Obi-Wan Kenobi |
|
You don't need to see his identification. |
| Stormtrooper |
|
We don't need to see your identification. |
| Obi-Wan Kenobi |
|
These aren't the droids you're looking for. |
| Stormtrooper |
|
These aren't the droids we're looking for. |
| Obi-Wan Kenobi |
|
He can go about his business. |
| Stormtrooper |
|
You can go about your business. |
| Obi-Wan Kenobi |
|
Move along. |
| Stormtrooper |
|
Move along. Move along. |
| General Tagge | What of the Rebellion? If the Rebels have obtained a complete technical reading of this station, it is possible, however unlikely, they might find a weakness and exploit it | |
| Darth Vader |
|
The plans you refer to will soon be back in our hands. |
| Admiral Motti |
|
Any attack made by the Rebels against this station would be a useless gesture, no matter what technical data they have obtained. This station is now the ultimate power in the universe. I suggest we use it. |
| Darth Vader |
|
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. |
| Admiral Motti |
|
Don't try to frighten us with your sorcerous ways, Lord Vader. Your sad devotion to that ancient religion has not helped you conjure up the stolen data tapes, or given you clairvoyance enough to find the rebels' hidden fort- |
| Darth Vader |
|
I find your lack of faith disturbing. |
| Grand Moff Tarkin |
|
Enough of this! Vader! Release him! |
| Darth Vader |
|
As you wish. |
| Opening Crawl | It is a period of civil war. Rebel spaceships, striking from a hidden base, have won their first victory against the evil Galactic Empire. During the battle, Rebel spies managed to steal secret plans to the Empire's ultimate weapon, the DEATH STAR, an armored space station with enough power to destroy an entire planet. Pursued by the Empire's sinister agents, Princess Leia races home aboard her starship, custodian of the stolen plans that can save her people and restore freedom to the galaxy.... |
| Dr. Evazan |
|
He doesn't like you |
| Luke Skywalker |
|
I'm sorry |
| Dr. Evazan |
|
I don't like you either. You just watch yourself. We're wanted men. I have the death sentence on twelve systems. |
| Luke Skywalker |
|
I'll be careful then |
| Dr. Evazan |
|
You'll be dead! |
