Good stuff, Gaf. Gave me a chuckle.

As for this:

Gaffer Tape said:
C-3PO and R2-D2 present themselves to Jabba. R2 has a message for Jabba from Luke. He presumably (and according to Shadows of the Empire definitely) knows that Luke is going to offer them to Jabba in exchange. R2 is also secretly carrying Luke's lightsaber. R2 knows everything. 3PO obviously knows absolutely nothing about this plan. But what if Jabba had been like, "Yeah, sure, that works for me. You guys stay here, and I'll hand over Han." Would Luke have made good on his deal and just abandoned the droids?

If i'm not mistaken, Luke is seeking an audience with Jabba at this point and the droids are a token of "goodwill". So he is not trying to exchange them for Han. Still, the "plan" doesn't look too sound.......
