Coincidence, I'm sure

Yeah, you're right. When Darth Vader revealed Luke's parentage to him, Kersh wanted to have Vader take his helmet off to reveal the face of Underdog, but since that wasn't technically possible in a realistic way back in 1979, he had to scrap that idea. He also wanted to have a sex scene between Han and Lando as a ploy to get Han's guard down so that Vader could capture him, but Harrison and Billy Dee refused to do it.

Thank goodness for that, huh?
