(TIE FIGHTERS ROARING LOUDLY)
MAN: Command
station, this is...
ST-321. Code
clearance blue.
We're starting
our approach.
Deactivate the
security shield.
The security deflector...
shield will be deactivated
when we have
confirmation...
of your code transmission.
Stand by.
- You are clear to proceed.
- We're starting our approach.
(ROARING CONTINUES)
(ALARM BLARING INDISTINCTLY)
Inform the
commander that...
Lord Vader's shuttle
has arrived.
Sir.
(DARTH VADER THEME PLAYING)
Lord Vader, this is an
unexpected pleasure.
We're honored by
your presence.
DARTH VADER: You
may dispense...
with the pleasantries,
Commander.
I'm here to put...
you back on schedule.
I assure you, Lord
Vader, my men...
are working as
fast as they can.
Perhaps I can find new...
ways to motivate them.
I tell you this
station will...
be operational, as planned.
The emperor does not...
share your optimistic...
appraisal of the situation.
But he asks the impossible.
I need more men.
Then perhaps you
can tell...
him when he arrives.
The emperor's coming here?
That is correct, Commander.
And he is most...
displeased with your...
apparent lack of progress.
We shall double our efforts.
I hope so, Commander...
for your sake.
The emperor is not as...
forgiving as I am.
- (R2-D2 BEEPS RAPIDLY)
- C-3PO: Of course I'm worried.
And you should be, too.
Lando Calrissian and
poor Chewbacca...
never returned from
this awful place.
(R2-D2 BEEPING)
Don't be so sure.
If I told you half
the things I've...
heard about this
Jabba the Hutt,
- you'd probably short-circuit.
- (R2-D2 WHINING)
(R2-D2 WHISTLING)
R2, are you sure this
is the right place?
(WHISTLES, BEEPS)
I'd better knock, I suppose.
There doesn't seem
to be anyone here.
Let's go back and
tell Master Luke.
(SPEAKING HUTTESE)
- Goodness gracious me!
- (SPEAKING HUTTESE)
R2...
D-Toa.
(BEEPING)
(HUTTESE)
C-3POA.
(SPEAKING HUTTESE)
(JABBA LAUGHS)
I don't think they're...
going to let us in, R2.
- (BEEPING)
- We'd better go.
(DOOR CREAKING)
(R2-D2 BEEPING)
C-3PO: R2, Wait!
Oh, dear! R2!
R2, I really don't
think we...
should rush into all this.
Oh, R2!
R2, wait for me!
(WHISTLES, BEEPS)
(GROWLS)
(R2-D2 BEEPS)
(GROWLING)
Just you deliver
Master Luke's...
message and get
us out of here.
- Oh, my! Oh!
- (GROWLING)
- Oh, no!
- (HUTTESE)
Oh, my.
(C-3PO SPEAKS HUTTESE)
(R2-D2 BEEPS)
We bring a message
to your...
master Jabba the Hutt.
- (HUTTESE)
- (R2-D2 BEEPING)
(WHISTLING)
- And a gift.
- (BEEPS)
- Gift? What gift?
- (BEEPS, WHISTLES)
(SPEAKING HUTTESE)
(R2-D2 BEEPING)
He says that our
instructions...
are to give it only to...
Jabba himself.
(R2-D2 WHISTLING)
(GROWLING)
I'm terribly sorry.
I'm afraid he's ever so...
stubborn about these
sort of things.
C-3PO: R2.
I have a bad feeling
about this.
Oh.
(BARKING)
JABBA: Oh.
(R2-D2 WHINING)
Ohh!
(SPEAKING HUTTESE)
- Good morning.
- (R2-D2 WHIMPERS)
(HUTTESE)
- The message, R2. The message.
- (BEEPS)
Oohh shoodah.
(R2-D2 BEEPING)
LUKE: Greetings, Exalted One.
- Allow me to introduce myself.
- Ohh.
I am Luke Skywalker,
Jedi knight...
and friend to Captain Solo.
LUKE: I know
that you are...
powerful, mighty Jabba,
and that your anger with...
Solo must be
equally powerful.
I seek an audience
with Your
Greatness to bargain
for Solo's life.
(JABBA LAUGHING)
LUKE: With your widsom...
I'm sure that we can
work out an arrangement
which will be
mutually beneficial
and enable us to avoid
any unpleasant confrontation.
As a token of
my goodwill...
I present to you a gift...
these two droids.
- What did he say?
- (BEEPS)
Both are hardworking...
and will serve you well.
This can't be. R2, your...
playing the wrong message.
(LAUGHS)
(SPEAKING HUTTESE)
Aah!
(HUTTESE)
- We're doomed.
- Mmm.
Solo.
R2, look...
Captain Solo.
C-3PO: And he's still...
frozen in carbonite.
(R2-D2 WHISTLES)
(LAUGHING)
What could possibly have...
come over Master Luke?
Was it something I did?
He never expressed any...
unhappiness with my work.
Ohh! How horrid!
Ohh!
(GROWLING)
(WHISTLING)
(WHINING)
(DROID YELLING)
(SCREAMING)
Ah, good.
New acquisitions.
You are a protocol...
droid, are you not?
I am C-3PO...
Yes or no will do.
Oh. Well, yes.
How many languages...
do you speak?
I am fluent in over
six million forms
of communication and can...
Splendid.
We have been without
an interpreter
since our master got...
angry with our last
protocol droid and...
disintegrated him.
- Disintegrated?
- (SCREAMS)
Oh.
Guard!
This protocol droid...
might be useful.
Fit him with a
restraining...
bolt and take him back
up to His Excellency's...
main audience chamber.
R2, don't leave me!
(EXCLAIMS)
(WHISTLES, BEEPING)
You're a feisty little one,
but you'll soon...
learn some respect.
I have need for you on...
the master's sail barge,
and I think you'll...
fill in nicely.
No! No! No!

C-3PO: Yes, I am here...
Your Worshipfulness.
Yes?
(HUTTESE)
The illustrious Jabba...
bids you welcome
and will gladly pay you...
the reward of 25,000.
(SPEAKING HUTTESE)
- 50,000. No less.
- (YELLS)
(C-3PO SCREAMS)
(SPEAKING HUTTESE)
What did I say?
(HUTTESE)
The mighty Jabba asks...
why he must pay 50,000.
(SPEAKING ALIEN DIALECT)
Because he's holding...
a thermal detonator!
(SCREAMING)
(CHEWIE GROWLING)
(LAUGHING)
(SPEAKING HUTTESE)
Jabba offers the...
sum of 35...
and I do suggest you take it.

Just relax...
for a moment.
You're free...
of the carbonite.
(SHUSHES)
You have...
hibernation sickness.
I can't see.
Your eyesight will...
return in time.
- Where am I?
- Jabba's Palace.
Who are you?
- Someone who loves you.
- Leia.
I got to get you out of here.
(JABBA LAUGHING)
What's that?
- (LAUGHING CONTINUES)
- I know that laugh.
(SPEAKING HUTTESE)
Hey, Jabba... Look,
Jabba, I was...
just on my way
to pay you back,
and I got a little
sidetracked.
- It's not my fault.
- (HUTTESE)
(LAUGHING)
Look.
Jabba, I'll pay you triple.
You're throwing
away a fortune!
Don't be a fool!
LEIA: We have
powerful friends.
You're going to
regret this.
(SPEAKING HUTTESE)
(GROANS)
Oh, I can't bear to watch.
(LAUGHING)
HAN: Chewie?
- (GROWLS)
- Chewie, is that you?
- Chew. Chewie!
- (CHEWIE GROWLS)
I can't see, pal.
What's going on?
(CHEWIE GRUMBLING)
Luke? Luke's crazy.
Can't even take
care of himself...
much less rescue anybody.
(GROWLS)
(STAMMERS)
A Jedi knight?
I'm out of it for a little
while, everybody...
gets delusions of grandeur.
(GRUMBLES)
I'm all right, pal.
I'm all right.
(DOOR CREAKING)
(GROWLS)
(SPEAKING HUTTESE)
LUKE: I must speak
with Jabba.
(SPEAKING HUTTESE)
You will take me
to Jabba now.
You serve your master well.
And you will be rewarded.
At last! Master Luke's...
come to rescue me.
- Master.
- Ohh!
Luke Skywalker, Jedi Knight.
(SPEAKING HUTTESE)
I must be allow to speak.
You will bring
Captain Solo...
and the Wookie to me.
(LAUGHING)
Nevertheless,
I'm taking Captain Solo...
and his friends.
You can either profit...
by this or be destroyed.
It's your choice,
but I warn you...
not to underestimate
my powers.
Master Luke, you're
standing on...

- That bad, huh?
- Where's Leia?
- LEIA: I'm here!
(SPEAKS HUTTESE)
C-3PO: Oh, dear.
His High
Exaltedness, the...
great Jabba the Hutt,
has decreed that
you are to...
be terminated immediately.
Good. I hate long waits.
(LAUGHING)
You will therefore be...
taken to the Dune Sea...
and cast into the...
Pit of Carkoon,
the nesting place of the...
all-powerful Sarlacc.
Doesn't sound so bad.
In his belly, you
will find a new...
definition of pain
and suffering,
as you are slowly
digested...
over a thousand years.
(GROWLS)
On second thought,
let's pass on that.
You should have
bargained, Jabba.
(SPEAKING HUTTESE)
That's the last mistake
you'll ever make.

HAN: I think my eyes
are getting better.
Instead of a big
dark blur...
I see a big light blur.
There's nothing to see.
I used to live
here, you know.
You're going to die
here, you know.
Convenient.
Just stick close to
Chewie and Lando.
I've taken care
of everything.
Oh. Great.
Aah! Ow!
(SPEAKING HUTTESE)
I'm terribly sorry.
R2, what are you doing here?
(BEEPS)
Well, I can see
you're serving...
drinks, but this
place is dangerous.
They're going to
execute Master Luke...
and, if we're not
careful, us, too.
(R2-D2 CHIRPING)
Hmm, I wish I had
your confidence.
(SHRIEKS)
(SPEAKING HUTTESE)
C-3PO: Victims of the...
almighty Sarlacc,
His Excellency
hopes that...
you will die honorably.
But should any of you...
wish to beg for mercy,
the great Jabba the Hutt...
will now listen
to your pleas.
(R2-D2 BEEPING)
JABBA: Tibi Jedi!
3PO!
You tell that
slimy piece...
of worm-ridden filth...
he'll get no such...
pleasure from us! Right?

This is your last chance.

We're on our way.

(DRAMATIC MUSIC PLAYING)
I'll meet you back
at the fleet.
LEIA: Hurry. The
Alliance...
should be assembled by now.
I will.
HAN: Hey, Luke. Thanks.
Thanks for coming after me.
I owe you one.
- (SCOFFS SOFTLY)
- (R2-D2 BEEPS RAPIDLY)
That's right, R2. We're going
to the Dagobah system.
(R2-D2 BEEPING)
We'll promise to keep.
An old friend.
(TIE FIGHTERS ROARING LOUDLY)
(DARTH VADER THEME PLAYING)
(STEAM HISSING)
EMPEROR: Rise, my friend.
(DARTH VADER BREATHING)
DARTH VADER: The Death
Star will be...
completed on schedule.
You've done well, Lord Vader.
And now I sense you...
wish to continue
your search for...
young Skywalker.
Yes, my master.
Patience, my friend.
In time...
he will seek you out.
And when he does...
you must bring...
him before me.
He has grown strong.
Only together can...
we turn him...
to the dark side...
of the Force.
As you wish.
Everything is proceeding
as I have foreseen.
(EMPEROR LAUGHING MANIACALLY)
(BEEPS, WHISTLES)
Hmm. Hmm.
YODA: That face you make...
Look I so old...
to young eyes?
No. Of course not.
I do.
(COUGHING SOFTLY)
Yes, I do.
Sick have I become.
Hmm, old and weak.
When 900 years old...
you reach, look as good...
you will not, hmm?
(YODA LAUGHING RAPIDLY)
Soon will I rest.
Yes.
Forever sleep.
Hmm. Ahh...
earned it I have.
Master Yoda, you can't die.
Strong am I...
with the Force,
but not that strong.
Twilight is upon me,
and soon...
night must fall.
That is the way of things...
the way of the Force.
But I need your help.
LUKE: I've come back to...
complete the training.
No more training
do you require.
Already know you...
that which you need.
(SIGHS)
Then I am a Jedi.
Oh.
(LAUGHS, COUGHS)
Not yet.
One thing remains...
Vader.
You must confront Vader.
Then, only then,
a Jedi will you be.
And confront him you will.
Master Yoda.
Is Darth Vader my father?
Rest I need.
Yes.
Rest.
Yoda, I must know.
Your father he is.
Told you, did he?
Yes.
Unexpected this is.
And unfortunate.
Unfortunate that I
know the truth?
YODA: No.
Unfortunate...
that you rushed to face him,
that incomplete was...
your training,
that not ready for
the burden were you.
I'm sorry.
YODA: Remember...
a Jedi's strength...
flows from the Force.
But beware...
Anger...
fear...
aggression...
the dark side...
are they.
Once you start down
the dark path,
forever will it...
dominate your destiny.
Luke.
Luke.
Do not...
do not...
underestimate the...
powers of the emperor,
or suffer your father's...
fate you will.
Luke, when gone am I,
the last of the
Jedi will you be.
Luke...
the Force runs strong...
in your family.
Pass on what you...
have learned.
Luke...
there is...
another...
Sky...
walker.
(DRAMATIC MUSIC PLAYS)
(R2-D2 BEEPS SOFTLY)
(BEEPING CONTINUES)
I can't do it, R2.
(BEEPS, WHISTLES)
I can't go it alone.
OBI-WAN: Yoda will...
always be with you.
Obi-Wan.
Why didn't you tell me?
You told me Vader
betrayed...
and murdered my father.
Your father...
was seduced by the...
dark side of the Force.
He ceased to be...
Anakin Skywalker...
and became Darth Vader.
When that happened,
the good man
who was your father...
was destroyed.
So what I told
you was true...
from a certain point of view.
A certain point of view?
Luke, you're
going to find...
that many of the truths
we cling to
depend greatly...
on our own point of view.
OBI-WAN: Anakin was...
a good friend.
When I first knew him,
your father was...
already a great pilot,
but I was amazed
how strongly...
the Force was with him.
I took it upon myself...
to train him as a Jedi.
I thought that I
could instruct...
him just as well as Yoda.
I was wrong.
There is still good in him.
He's more machine...
now than man,
twisted and evil.
I can't do it, Ben.
OBI-WAN: You cannot...
escape your destiny.
You must face...
Darth Vader again.
I can't kill my own father.
Then the emperor...
has already won.
You were our only hope.
Yoda spoke of another.
The other he spoke of
is your twin sister.
- But I have no sister.
- Hmm.
To protect you both
from the emperor,
you were hidden
from your...
father when you were born.
The emperor knew, as I did,
if Anakin were to...
have any offspring,
they would be a
threat to him.
That is the reason...
why your sister remains...
safely anonymous.
Leia.
Leia's my sister.
Your insight serves you well.
Bury your feelings...
deep down, Luke.
They do you credit...
but they could be made...
to serve the emperor.
(DRAMATIC MUSIC PLAYING)
Well, look at you.
A general, huh?
Ah, someone must have
told them about my....
little maneuver at the
Battle of Tanaab.
Well, don't look
at me, pal.
I just said you
were a fair pilot.
I didn't know they
were looking for...
somebody to lead
this crazy attack.
I'm surprised they
didn't ask you to do it.
Well, who says they didn't?
But I ain't crazy.
You're the respectable
one, remember?
(BELL CHIMES)
MON: The emperor's
made a critical error,
and the time for our
attack has come.
The data brought
to us by the
Bothan spies pinpoint the...
exact location of the...
emperor's new
battle station.
We also know that
the weapon...
systems of this
Death Star...
are not yet operational.
With the imperial
fleet spread...
throughout the galaxy,
in a vain effort
to engage us,
it is relatively unprotected.
But most important of all,
we've learned that
the emperor...
himself is personally
overseeing...
the final stages of the...
construction of
this Death Star.
Many Bothans died...
to bring us this information.
Admiral Ackbar, please.
ACKBAR: You can see here...
the Death Star...
orbiting the forest moon...
of Endor.
Although the
weapon systems...
on this Death Star...
are not yet operational,
the Death Star does have...
a strong defense mechanism.
It is protected by...
an energy shield...
which is generated
from the...
nearby forest
moon of Endor.
(BEEPING)
The shield must
be deactivated...
if any attack is
to be attempted.
Once the shield is down...
our cruisers will...
create a perimeter...
while the fighters fly...
into the superstructure...
and attempt to knock out...
the main reactor.
General Calrissian.
Has volunteered to lead
the fighter attack.
Good luck.
You're gonna need it.
General Madine.
MADINE: We have stolen a...
small imperial shuttle.
Disguised as a
cargo ship and...
using a secret
imperial code,
a strike team will
land on the moon
and deactivate the
shield generator.
C-3PO: Sounds dangerous.
I wonder who they found
to pull that off.
General Solo, is your...
strike team assembled?
Uh, my team's ready.
I don't have a
command crew...
for the shuttle.
- (CHEWIE GROWLS)
- That's gonna be rough, pal.
I didn't wanna speak for you.
(GROWLS)
- That's one.
- General.
- Count me in.
- LUKE: I'm with you, too.
- What is it?
- Ask me again sometime.
- Luke.
- Hi, Han. Chewie.
(R2-D2 WHISTLES)
"Exciting" is hardly the
word I would choose.
(THRILLING MUSIC PLAYING)
HAN: Look.
I want you to take her.
I mean it. Take her.
You need all the
help you can get.
She's the fastest
ship in the fleet.
All right, old buddy.
I know what she means to you.
I'll take good care of her.
She won't get a scratch.
All right?
Right.
I got your promise.
Not a scratch.
(CHUCKLES) Would you
get going, you pirate?
- Good luck.
- You too.
- Got her warmed?
- She's coming up.
(CHEWIE GRUNTS)
Yeah, well, I don't
think the...
Empire had Wookiees in mind...
when they designed
her, Chewie.
Hey, you awake?
Yeah. I just got a
funny feeling...
like I'm not gonna
see her again.
(GROWLS)
Come on, General, let's move.
Right. Chewie...
let's see what this
piece of junk can do.
- Ready, everybody?
- All set.
(R2-D2 BEEPING)
Here we go again.
HAN: All right. Hang on.
(THRUSTERS FIRES)
(TIE FIGHTERS ROARING)
DARTH VADER: What
is thy bidding...
my master?
Send the fleet to the...
far side of Endor.
There it will stay...
until called for.
What of the reports...
of the rebel fleet...
massing near Sullust?
EMPEROR: It is of no concern.
Soon the rebellion
will be crushed and
young Skywalker
will be one of us.
Your work here is
finished, my friend.
Go out to the command...
ship and await my orders.
Yes, my master.
(DRAMATIC MUSIC PLAYING)
If they don't go for
this, we're gonna have
to get out of here
pretty quick, Chewie.
MAN: (ON RADIO) We have
you on our screen now.
Please identify.

Fly casual.
Where is that shuttle going?
Shuttle Tydirium...
what is your cargo
and destination?
HAN: Parts and technical
crew for the forest moon.
Do they have a
code clearance?
It's an older code,
sir, but it checks out.
I was about to clear them.
I'm endangering
the mission.
I shouldn't have come.
That's your imagination, kid.
Come on. Let's keep a
little optimism here.
Shall I hold them?
No.
Leave them to me.
I will deal with them myself.
As you wish, my lord.
Carry on.
They're not going
for it, Chewie.
(CHEWIE GRUNTS)
Shuttle Tydirium,
deactivation of
the shield...

You stay here.

We better go look for her.
Take the squad ahead.
We'll meet...
at the shield

Come on, R2, we'll

has penetrated

Yes, I know.
My son is with them.
EMPEROR: Are you sure?
I have felt him...
my master.
Strange that I have not.
I wonder if your...
feelings on this matter...
are clear, Lord Vader.
They are clear, my master.
Then you must go to the...
sanctuary moon and
wait for him.
He will come to me?
I have foreseen it.
His compassion for you...
will be his undoing.
He will come to you...
and then you will...
bring him before me.
As you wish.
HAN: Luke! Luke!
Oh, Master Luke.
(ROARS SOFTLY)
There's two more wrecked

I'm afraid that

Hello, I think.
I could be mistaken.
They're using a very

I do believe they think...
I am some sort of god.
(R2-D2 BEEPS RAPIDLY)
(CHEWIE GROWLS LOUDLY)
Well, why don't you use...
your divine influence...

I beg your pardon,

but that just
wouldn't be proper.

It's against my

We need some fresh
supplies, too.

- Try and get our weapons back.
Hurry up, will you?
I haven't got all day.
LEIA: Luke, what's wrong?
Leia.
Do you remember
your mother...
your real mother?
Just a little bit.
She died when I
was very young.
What do you remember?
Just images, really.
Feelings.
Tell me.
(SIGHS) She was...
Very beautiful.
Kind...
but sad.
Why are you asking me this?
I have no memory
of my mother.
I never knew her.
Luke, tell me, what's
troubling you?
Vader's here.
Now, on this moon.
How do you know?
I felt his presence.
He's come for me.
He can feel when I'm near.
That's why I have to go.
As long as I stay,
I'm endangering...
the group and our
mission here.
- I have to face him.
- Why?
He's my father.
Your father?
It won't be easy for you...
to hear it, but you must.
If I don't make it back, you're
the only hope for the Alliance.
Luke, don't talk that way.
You have a power...
I don't understand...
and could never have.
You're wrong, Leia.
You have that power, too.
In time, you'll learn...
to use it as I have.
The Force is strong
in my family.
My father has it.
I have it.
And...
my sister has it.
Yes.
It's you, Leia.
I know.
Somehow...
I've always known.
Then you know why I
have to face him.
No!
Luke, run away. Far away.
If he can feel
your presence...
then leave this place.
I wish I could go with you.
No, you don't.
You've always been strong.
But why must you
confront him?
Because... there is...
good in him. I've felt it.
He won't turn me
over to the emperor.
I can save him.
I can turn...
him back to the good side.
I have to try.
(DRAMATIC MUSIC PLAYING)
HAN: Hey, what's going on?
Nothing. I just
want to be...
alone for a little while.
Nothing?
Come on, tell me.
What's going on?
(STAMMERS) I can't tell you.
Could you tell Luke? Is
that who you could tell?
I...
Ahh.
HAN: I'm sorry.
Hold me.
(DRAMATIC MUSIC PLAYING)
This is the rebel that
surrendered to us.
Although he denies it.
I believe there may
be more of them,
and I request
permission to conduct
a further search of the area.
He was armed...
only with this.
DARTH VADER: Good
work, Commander.
Leave us.
Conduct your search and...
bring his companions to me.
Yes, my lord.
The emperor has
been expecting you.
I know, Father.
So, you have...
accepted the truth.
I've accepted the
truth that you...
were once Anakin
Skywalker, my father.
That name no longer...
has any meaning for me.
It is the name of
your true self.
You've only forgotten.
LUKE: I know there
is good in you.
The emperor hasn't driven
it from you fully.
That was why you
couldn't destroy me.
That's why you
won't bring...
me to your emperor now.
(LIGHTSABER ACTIVATING)
I see you have
constructed...
the new lightsaber.
Your skills...
are complete.
(LIGHTSABER DEACTIVATING)
Indeed you are powerful...
as the emperor...
has foreseen.
Come with me.
Obi-Wan once thought...
as you do.
You don't know...
the power of...
the dark side.
I must obey...
my master.
I will not turn.
And you'll be
forced to kill me.
If that is your destiny.
Search your feelings, Father.
You can't do this.
I feel the conflict
within you.
Let go of your hate.
It is too late...
for me, son.
The emperor will show you...
the true nature...
of the Force.
He is your master, now.
Then my father is truly dead.
(CHEWIE GRUNTS)
LEIA: The main entrance
to the control bunker
is on the far side of

This isn't going to be easy.

You no longer need those.

Guards, leave us.
I'm looking forward to...
completing your training.
In time, you...
will call me...
master.
You're gravely mistaken.
You won't convert me...
as you did my father.
Oh, no.
My young Jedi.
You will find...
it is you...
who are mistaken...
about a great...
many things.
DARTH VADER: His lightsaber.
Ah, yes.
A Jedi's weapon.
Much like your father's.
By now you must know...
your father can
never be turned...
from the dark side.
So will it be with you.
You're wrong.
Soon I'll be dead,
and you with me.
(LAUGHING MANIACALLY)
Perhaps you refer to...
the imminent attack...
of your rebel fleet.
Yes.
I assure you...
we are quite safe...
from your friends here.
Your overconfidence
is your weakness.
Your faith in your...
friends is yours.
It is pointless...
to resist, my son.
Everything that...
has transpired...
has done so according...
to my design.
Your friends up there on...
the sanctuary moon are
walking into a trap...
as is your rebel fleet.
It was I who allowed...
the Alliance to know...
the location of...
the shield generator.
It is quite safe from...
your pitiful little band.
An entire legion of my...
best troops awaits them.
Oh...
I'm afraid the...
deflector shield...
will be quite...
operational...
when your friends arrive.
All right!

See for youself.
From here, you
will witness...
the final destruction...
of the Alliance...
and the end of your...

You want this...
don't you?
The hate is swelling...

Take your Jedi weapon.
Use it.
I am unarmed.
Strike me down with it.
Give in to your anger.

Yes.
Your thoughts betray you.
Your feelings for...
them are strong,

sister.
So...
you have...
a twin sister.
Your feelings have now...

Obi-Wan was wise...

The emperor does not...

I need more men.

The emperor's coming here?
That is correct, Commander.

We shall double our efforts.

I am Luke Skywalker,

Solo must be

I seek an audience

I'm sure that we can

any unpleasant confrontation.
As a token of

I present to you a gift...

powers of the emperor,
or suffer your father's...
fate you will.
Luke, when gone am I,
the last of the
Jedi will you be.
Luke...
the Force runs strong...
in your family.
Pass on what you...
have learned.
Luke...
there is...
another...
Sky...
walker.
(DRAMATIC MUSIC PLAYS)
(R2-D2 BEEPS SOFTLY)
(BEEPING CONTINUES)
I can't do it, R2.
(BEEPS, WHISTLES)
I can't go it alone.
OBI-WAN: Yoda will...
always be with you.
Obi-Wan.
Why didn't you tell me?
You told me Vader
betrayed...
and murdered my father.
Your father...
was seduced by the...
dark side of the Force.
He ceased to be...
Anakin Skywalker...
and became Darth Vader.
When that happened,
the good man
who was your father...
was destroyed.
So what I told
you was true...
from a certain point of view.
A certain point of view?
Luke, you're
going to find...
that many of the truths
we cling to
depend greatly...
on our own point of view.
OBI-WAN: Anakin was...
a good friend.
When I first knew him,
your father was...
already a great pilot,
but I was amazed
how strongly...
the Force was with him.
I took it upon myself...
to train him as a Jedi.
I thought that I
could instruct...
him just as well as Yoda.
I was wrong.
There is still good in him.
He's more machine...
now than man,
twisted and evil.
I can't do it, Ben.
OBI-WAN: You cannot...
escape your destiny.
You must face...
Darth Vader again.
I can't kill my own father.
Then the emperor...
has already won.
You were our only hope.
Yoda spoke of another.
The other he spoke of
is your twin sister.
- But I have no sister.
- Hmm.
To protect you both
from the emperor,
you were hidden
from your...
father when you were born.
The emperor knew, as I did,
if Anakin were to...
have any offspring,
they would be a
threat to him.
That is the reason...
why your sister remains...
safely anonymous.
Leia.
Leia's my sister.
Your insight serves you well.
Bury your feelings...
deep down, Luke.
They do you credit...
but they could be made...
to serve the emperor.
(DRAMATIC MUSIC PLAYING)
Well, look at you.
A general, huh?
Ah, someone must have
told them about my....
little maneuver at the
Battle of Tanaab.
Well, don't look
at me, pal.
I just said you
were a fair pilot.
I didn't know they
were looking for...
somebody to lead
this crazy attack.
I'm surprised they
didn't ask you to do it.
Well, who says they didn't?
But I ain't crazy.
You're the respectable
one, remember?
(BELL CHIMES)
MON: The emperor's
made a critical error,
and the time for our
attack has come.
The data brought
to us by the
Bothan spies pinpoint the...
exact location of the...
emperor's new
battle station.
We also know that
the weapon...
systems of this
Death Star...
are not yet operational.
With the imperial
fleet spread...
throughout the galaxy,
in a vain effort
to engage us,
it is relatively unprotected.
But most important of all,
we've learned that
the emperor...
himself is personally
overseeing...
the final stages of the...
construction of
this Death Star.
Many Bothans died...
to bring us this information.
Admiral Ackbar, please.
ACKBAR: You can see here...
the Death Star...
orbiting the forest moon...
of Endor.
Although the
weapon systems...
on this Death Star...
are not yet operational,
the Death Star does have...
a strong defense mechanism.
It is protected by...
an energy shield...
which is generated
from the...
nearby forest
moon of Endor.
(BEEPING)
The shield must
be deactivated...
if any attack is
to be attempted.
Once the shield is down...
our cruisers will...
create a perimeter...
while the fighters fly...
into the superstructure...
and attempt to knock out...
the main reactor.
General Calrissian.
Has volunteered to lead
the fighter attack.
Good luck.
You're gonna need it.
General Madine.
MADINE: We have stolen a...
small imperial shuttle.
Disguised as a
cargo ship and...
using a secret
imperial code,
a strike team will
land on the moon
and deactivate the
shield generator.
C-3PO: Sounds dangerous.
I wonder who they found
to pull that off.
General Solo, is your...
strike team assembled?
Uh, my team's ready.
I don't have a
command crew...
for the shuttle.
- (CHEWIE GROWLS)
- That's gonna be rough, pal.
I didn't wanna speak for you.
(GROWLS)
- That's one.
- General.
- Count me in.
- LUKE: I'm with you, too.
- What is it?
- Ask me again sometime.
- Luke.
- Hi, Han. Chewie.
(R2-D2 WHISTLES)
"Exciting" is hardly the
word I would choose.
(THRILLING MUSIC PLAYING)
HAN: Look.
I want you to take her.
I mean it. Take her.
You need all the
help you can get.
She's the fastest
ship in the fleet.
All right, old buddy.
I know what she means to you.
I'll take good care of her.
She won't get a scratch.
All right?
Right.
I got your promise.
Not a scratch.
(CHUCKLES) Would you
get going, you pirate?
- Good luck.
- You too.
- Got her warmed?
- She's coming up.
(CHEWIE GRUNTS)
Yeah, well, I don't
think the...
Empire had Wookiees in mind...
when they designed
her, Chewie.
Hey, you awake?
Yeah. I just got a
funny feeling...
like I'm not gonna
see her again.
(GROWLS)
Come on, General, let's move.
Right. Chewie...
let's see what this
piece of junk can do.
- Ready, everybody?
- All set.
(R2-D2 BEEPING)
Here we go again.
HAN: All right. Hang on.
(THRUSTERS FIRES)
(TIE FIGHTERS ROARING)
DARTH VADER: What
is thy bidding...
my master?
Send the fleet to the...
far side of Endor.
There it will stay...
until called for.
What of the reports...
of the rebel fleet...
massing near Sullust?
EMPEROR: It is of no concern.
Soon the rebellion
will be crushed and
young Skywalker
will be one of us.
Your work here is
finished, my friend.
Go out to the command...
ship and await my orders.
Yes, my master.
(DRAMATIC MUSIC PLAYING)
If they don't go for
this, we're gonna have
to get out of here
pretty quick, Chewie.
MAN: (ON RADIO) We have
you on our screen now.
Please identify.

(CHEWIE GROWLS)
Transmission commencing.
Now we find out
if that code...
is worth the price we paid.
It'll work.
It'll work.
Vader's on that ship.
HAN: Now, don't get
jittery, Luke.
- There a lot of command ships.
- (CHEWIE GRUNTS)
Keep your distance,
though, Chewie, but don't
look like you're trying
to keep your distance.
- (CHEWIE GRUMBLES)
- HAN: I don't know.
Fly casual.
Where is that shuttle going?
Shuttle Tydirium...
what is your cargo
and destination?
HAN: Parts and technical
crew for the forest moon.
Do they have a
code clearance?
It's an older code,
sir, but it checks out.
I was about to clear them.
I'm endangering
the mission.
I shouldn't have come.
That's your imagination, kid.
Come on. Let's keep a
little optimism here.
Shall I hold them?
No.
Leave them to me.
I will deal with them myself.
As you wish, my lord.
Carry on.
They're not going
for it, Chewie.
(CHEWIE GRUNTS)
Shuttle Tydirium,
deactivation of
the shield...
will commence immediately.
- Follow your present course.
- (CHEWIE GROWLS)
Okay.
I told you it was
going to work.
No problem.
C-3PO: Oh, I told you
it was dangerous here!
(GROWLS)
LEIA: Should we try
and go around?
LUKE: I'll take time.
HAN: This whole
party will be...
for nothing if they see us.
(GROWLS)
Chewie and I will
take care of this.
You stay here.
Quietly. There might be...
more of them out there.
Hey, it's me.

Where's Leia?
What? She didn't come back?
- I thought she was with you.
- We got separated.
We better go look for her.
Take the squad ahead.
We'll meet...
at the shield
generator at 0300.
Come on, R2, we'll
need your scanners.
(R2-D2 BEEPS)

DARTH VADER: A small
rebel force...
has penetrated
the shield...
and landed on Endor.
Yes, I know.
My son is with them.
EMPEROR: Are you sure?
I have felt him...
my master.
Strange that I have not.
I wonder if your...
feelings on this matter...
are clear, Lord Vader.
They are clear, my master.
Then you must go to the...
sanctuary moon and
wait for him.
He will come to me?
I have foreseen it.
His compassion for you...
will be his undoing.
He will come to you...
and then you will...
bring him before me.
As you wish.
HAN: Luke! Luke!
Oh, Master Luke.
(ROARS SOFTLY)
There's two more wrecked

And I found this.
I'm afraid that

of Princess Leia.
I hope she's all right.

What are you telling them?
Hello, I think.
I could be mistaken.
They're using a very

I do believe they think...
I am some sort of god.
(R2-D2 BEEPS RAPIDLY)
(CHEWIE GROWLS LOUDLY)
Well, why don't you use...
your divine influence...
and get us out of this?
I beg your pardon,
General Solo...
but that just
wouldn't be proper.
Proper?
It's against my

to impersonate a deity.
Why, you...

I couldn't possibly.

I haven't got all day.
LEIA: Luke, what's wrong?
Leia.
Do you remember
your mother...
your real mother?
Just a little bit.
She died when I
was very young.
What do you remember?
Just images, really.
Feelings.
Tell me.
(SIGHS) She was...
Very beautiful.
Kind...
but sad.
Why are you asking me this?
I have no memory
of my mother.
I never knew her.
Luke, tell me, what's
troubling you?
Vader's here.
Now, on this moon.
How do you know?
I felt his presence.
He's come for me.
He can feel when I'm near.
That's why I have to go.
As long as I stay,
I'm endangering...
the group and our
mission here.
- I have to face him.
- Why?
He's my father.
Your father?
It won't be easy for you...
to hear it, but you must.
If I don't make it back, you're
the only hope for the Alliance.
Luke, don't talk that way.
You have a power...
I don't understand...
and could never have.
You're wrong, Leia.
You have that power, too.
In time, you'll learn...
to use it as I have.
The Force is strong
in my family.
My father has it.
I have it.
And...
my sister has it.
Yes.
It's you, Leia.
I know.
Somehow...
I've always known.
Then you know why I
have to face him.
No!
Luke, run away. Far away.
If he can feel
your presence...
then leave this place.
I wish I could go with you.
No, you don't.
You've always been strong.
But why must you
confront him?
Because... there is...
good in him. I've felt it.
He won't turn me
over to the emperor.
I can save him.
I can turn...
him back to the good side.
I have to try.
(DRAMATIC MUSIC PLAYING)
HAN: Hey, what's going on?
Nothing. I just
want to be...

Nothing?
Come on, tell me.
What's going on?
(STAMMERS) I can't tell you.
Could you tell Luke? Is
that who you could tell?
I...
Ahh.
HAN: I'm sorry.
Hold me.
(DRAMATIC MUSIC PLAYING)
This is the rebel that
surrendered to us.
Although he denies it.
I believe there may
be more of them,
and I request
permission to conduct
a further search of the area.
He was armed...
only with this.
DARTH VADER: Good
work, Commander.
Leave us.
Conduct your search and...
bring his companions to me.
Yes, my lord.
The emperor has
been expecting you.
I know, Father.
So, you have...
accepted the truth.
I've accepted the
truth that you...
were once Anakin
Skywalker, my father.
That name no longer...
has any meaning for me.
It is the name of
your true self.
You've only forgotten.
LUKE: I know there
is good in you.
The emperor hasn't driven
it from you fully.
That was why you
couldn't destroy me.
That's why you
won't bring...
me to your emperor now.
(LIGHTSABER ACTIVATING)
I see you have
constructed...
the new lightsaber.
Your skills...
are complete.
(LIGHTSABER DEACTIVATING)
Indeed you are powerful...
as the emperor...
has foreseen.
Come with me.
Obi-Wan once thought...
as you do.
You don't know...
the power of...
the dark side.
I must obey...
my master.
I will not turn.
And you'll be
forced to kill me.
If that is your destiny.
Search your feelings, Father.
You can't do this.
I feel the conflict
within you.
Let go of your hate.
It is too late...
for me, son.
The emperor will show you...
the true nature...
of the Force.
He is your master, now.
Then my father is truly dead.

Oh, no.

You will find...
it is you...
who are mistaken...
about a great...
many things.

Ah, yes.
A Jedi's weapon.
Much like your father's.
By now you must know...
your father can
never be turned...
from the dark side.
So will it be with you.
You're wrong.
Soon I'll be dead,
and you with me.
(LAUGHING MANIACALLY)
Perhaps you refer to...
the imminent attack...
of your rebel fleet.
Yes.
I assure you...
we are quite safe...
from your friends here.
Your overconfidence
is your weakness.
Your faith in your...
friends is yours.
It is pointless...
to resist, my son.
Everything that...
has transpired...
has done so according...
to my design.
Your friends up there on...
the sanctuary moon are
walking into a trap...
as is your rebel fleet.
It was I who allowed...
the Alliance to know...
the location of...
the shield generator.
It is quite safe from...
your pitiful little band.
An entire legion of my...
best troops awaits them.
Oh...
I'm afraid the...

shield, up or down.
(SPEAKING ALIEN LANGUAGE)
How could they be jamming
us if they don't know...
if we're coming.
LANDO: Break off the attack!
The shield is still up.
I get no reading. You sure?
LANDO: Pull up! All
craft, pull up!
(DRAMATIC MUSIC PLAYING)
Take evasive action.
Green Group, stick to...
Holding Sector MV-7.
Admiral, we have enemy...
ships in Sector 47.
It's a trap.
Fighters, coming in!
There's too many of them!
Accerate to attack speed!
Draw their fire away
from the cruisers.
Copy, Gold Leader.
EMPEROR: Come, boy.
See for youself.
From here, you
will witness...
the final destruction...
of the Alliance...
and the end of your...
insignificant rebellion.
You want this...
don't you?
The hate is swelling...
in you now.
Take your Jedi weapon.
Use it.
I am unarmed.
Strike me down with it.
Give in to your anger.
With each passing moment...
you make yourself...
more my servant.
No.
It is unavoidable.
It is your destiny.
You, like your father,
are now...
Mine.
(DRAMATIC MUSIC PLAYING)
STORMTROOPER: All
right, move it!
Keep moving. Come on.
C-3PO: Hello! I
say over there!
Were you looking for me?
(CHEWIE GRUNTS)
Bring those two down here.
Well, they're on their way.
R2, are you sure this
was a good idea?
- Freeze!

you're going?
(R2-D2 BEEPING EXCITEDLY)
Going where, R2?
No, wait! R2!
Oh, this is no
time for heroics!
Come back!
(SPEAKING EWOKESE)
Watch yourself, Wedge.
Three from above.
- Red Three, Red Two, pull in.
- Got it.
Three of them coming
in, twenty degrees.
Cut to the left. I'll
take the leader.
They're heading for
the medical frigate.
- Pressure steady.
- (SPEAKING ALIEN LANGUAGE)
Only the fighters are attacking.
I wonder...
what those Stardestroyers
are waiting for.
We're in attack
position, sir.
Hold here.
We're not going to attack?
I have my orders from
the emperor himself.
He has something special
planned for them.
We only need to keep
them from escaping.
EMPEROR: As you can see...
my young apprentice,
your friends...
have failed.
Now witness...
the firepower...
of this fully armed...
and operational...
battle station.
Fire at will, Commander.
Fire!
Oh, oh!
That blast came from
the Death Star!
LANDO: That thing
is operational!
Home One, this
is Gold Leader.
We saw it. All craft
prepare to retreat.
You won't get another
chance at this, Admiral.
We have no choice...
General Calrissian.
Our cruisers can't repel...
firepower of
that magnitude.
Han will have
that shield down.
We've got to give
him more time!

LANDO: Yes, I said closer!
Move as close as you can...
and engage those
Stardestroyers...
at point-blank range!
At that close range,
we won't last...
long against those
Stardestroyers.
We'll last longer
than we...
will against
that Death Star!
And we might just take
a few of them with us!
She's gonna blow!
I'm hit!
EMPEROR: Your fleet is lost.
And your friends on the...
Endor moon will
not survive.
There is no escape....
my young apprentice.
The Alliance...
will die...
as will your friends.
Good.
I can feel...
your anger.
I am defenseless.
Take your weapon.
Strike me down with...
all of your hatred...
and your journey...
towards the dark side...
will be complete!

Obi-Wan as...
taught you well.
I will not fight you, Father.
- You are unwise to lower your defenses.
- (LIGHTSABER ACTIVATING)
(LIGHTSABER CRACKLING)
(CRACKLING CONTINUES)
Your thoughts
betray you, Father.
I feel the good in you...
the conflict.
There is...
no conflict.
You couldn't bring yourself
to kill me before.
I don't believe you'll
destroy me now.
You underestimate the...
power of the dark side.

will not fight, then...
you will meet your destiny.

Watch out! Squad at Point 06.
I'm on it, Gold Leader.
Good shot, Red Two!
We're sure in the
middle of it now.
Come on, Han, old buddy...
don't let me down.
HAN: It's over, Commander.
The rebels have
been routed.
They're fleeing
into the woods.
We need reinforcements...
to continue the pursuit.
Send three squads to help.
- Open the back door.
- Sir.
(EWOKS CHEERING)
Throw me another charge!
(CHEWIE GROWLS SOFTLY)
DARTH VADER: You cannot...
hide forever, Luke.
LUKE: I will not fight you.
Give yourself to...
the dark side.
It is the only way you...
can save your friends.
Yes.
Your thoughts betray you.
Your feelings for...
them are strong,
especially for...
sister.
So...
you have...
a twin sister.
Your feelings have now...
betrayed her, too.
Obi-Wan was wise...
to hide her from me.
Now his failure...
is complete.
If you will not turn...
to the dark side...
then perhaps...
she will.

Copy, Gold Leader.
What? Like that?

We've got to give those...
fighters more time.
Concentrate all fire on...
that Super Stardestroyer.

No. You're coming with me.

You were right about me.

I won't leave you.

Don't you?
