They removed the shot of him exploding and I think hitting the table as well. Plus Han's line right before that is shortened. So its more than simply hitting the "undo" button, there would be some reconstruction involved.
But its all moot anyway, since LFL's whole "cost" angle is a complete manipulation (aside from the fact that the O-neg is not a necessary requirement).
