Well I was asking for something that is actually in the script. Not something that you made up with your imagination. Because for me (or someone else), that aspect is completely unexplored by ESB.

I quoted Leia and Han in ESB twice! What more do you want for “in the script” if that does not count?! 😮

And just to head you off, in that specific paragraph response I was referring to my earlier responses with those very quotations. I’m sorry that I don’t quote my every comment (or the entire thread for that matter) in each reply. I see little point in repeating myself when you can just click back a page and read it all.
Actual quotes I only use for context for a specific reply or rebuttal, to save cluttering up the thread. But that’s just a matter of etiquette I’ve learnt in using such forums as these.

I guess you refer to:
“I thought you’d decided to stay”
“Well that bounty hunter on Ord Mantell changed my mind”

These two lines do absolutely nothing to explore why he decided to join them at the end of ANH (my main point of the question).

And it does not imply he was in any way conflicted about committing either. It simply means he had to go pay Jabba or “he is a dead man” as he himself clearly explains the reason. Even if for some strange reason you ignore the clear reason given by Solo and still think it was because he was conflicted about committing, then where does the script explain/explore his actual reasons for “conflict”?
