What's going on?
Our position is correct, except, no Alderaan.
What do you mean? Where is it?
Thats what I'm trying to tell you, kid. It ain't there. It's been totally blown away.
What!? How?
[grimly]
Destroyed. By the Empire.
The entire star fleet couldn't destroy the whole planet. It'd take a thousand ships with more fire power than I've— there's another ship coming in!
Maybe they know what happened.
[A TIE fighter flies over the cockpit]
It's an Imperial fighter.
It followed us!
No, it's a short-range fighter.
There aren't any bases around here. Where did it come from?
It sure is leaving in a big hurry. If they identify us, we're in big trouble.
Not if I can help it. Chewie, jam its transmissions.
It'd be as well to let it go. It's too far out of range.
Not for long.
A fighter that size couldn't get this deep into space on its own.
He must have gotten lost, been part of a convoy or something.
Well, he ain't going to be around long enough to tell anyone about us.
Look at him. He's headed for that small moon.
I think I can get him before he gets there. He's almost in range.
[with sudden realization]
That's no moon. It's a space station.
It's too big to be a space station.
I have a very bad feeling about this.
Turn the ship around.
Yeah. I think you're right...
