I've always wondered about Ben's line "Who's the more foolish, the fool or the fool who follows him?". How does that fit into the scenario? Is Han the fool who's following a fool (Ben)? If so, why? He doesn't follow him at all.

I love that line.

I've always figured Ben is predicting (correctly) that Han is still going to do what Ben says regardless of calling him an old fool.

It is a quote from Twelfth Night. The character (Malvolio) who said it was played by Alec Guinness in the 1969 TV adaption.
