Finally, we cut to the scene where Leia is injured on Endor – tight on her, so we can’t make out the backdrop or discern the situation fully; a flash fills the frame, and we see Leia hurt.

After Leia’s “death”, we then cut to…Luke, from the deleted lightsaber construction scene.

^ On reflection, it might be inappropriate to include any scene of Leia here - and perhaps best to keep the opening space bound, like the other episodes, for uniformity’s sake. Besides, it may be more powerful to have the sequence conclude with the Falcon apparently burning up. So of course, if this was to be the case, we would segue to Luke’s close-up after the shot of the Falcon - which would become the final image in the opening vision.
