Aboard the Death Star
Leia
Governor Tarkin, I had a feeling you were behind all of this. My colleagues had informed me in a boardroom meeting that this is the sort of thing you do.
Tarkin
Indeed it is. Princess Leia, before your execution, I would like you to watch as we show this battle station's full capabilities. After 20 years of hard labor, this battle station is about to be operational. No system will dare oppose the Emperor now.
Leia
Governor Tarkin, your threats will not scare the Rebellion. We will not be swayed by your bullying tactics.
Tarkin
We'll see what happens after we demonstrate the capabilities of this battle station. The Imperial officers and I have come to the conclusion that a peaceful system without strong enough weapons capabilities would make the most effective planet to destroy first. Since you are reluctant to tell us where your rebel base is, I have decided to destroy your home planet of Alderaan.
Leia
No, you can't do that!
Tarkin
Then tell me where the rebel base is!
Leia
Dantooine, they're on Dantooine, the fifth star of the Gantooine system in the outer rim.
Tarkin
You see Lord Vader, she can be reasonable, you may continue with the operation to destroy Alderaan.
Leia
What?
Tarkin
I can't believe an astute leader like yourself actually believed we wouldn't continue with this demonstration. But don't worry, we will deal with the rebel alliance in good time.
Leia
No!
Alderaan is destroyed. Meanwhile, aboard the Millenium Falcon, Obiwan Kenobi looks ill.
Luke
What's wrong?
Obiwan
Something terrible has just happened, I feel it in the force.
Luke
What do you think happened Ben?
Obiwan?
I'm not sure. The feeling I just had was very vague, but you must now get back to your excercises.
