A scene from Star Wars Episode IV: A New Hope 1977
Luke Skywalker

[R2-D2 is attempting to locate the tractor beam power source.]

What is it?

C-3P0

I'm afraid I'm not quite sure, sir. He says "I found her", and keeps repeating, "She's here."

Luke Skywalker

Well... who? Who has he found?

C-3P0

Princess Leia.

Luke Skywalker

The princess? She's here?

Han Solo

Princess?

Luke Skywalker

Where? Where is she?

Han Solo

Princess? What's going on?

C-3P0

Level 5, Detention block AA23. I'm afraid she's scheduled to be terminated.

Luke Skywalker

Oh, no! We've got to do something!

Han Solo

What are you talking about?

Luke Skywalker

The droid belongs to her. She's the one in the message! We've got to help her!

Han Solo

Now, look, don't get any funny ideas. The old man wants us to wait right here.

Luke Skywalker

But he didn't know she was here. Look, will you just find a way back into the detention block.

Han Solo

I'm not going anywhere.

Luke Skywalker

They're going to execute her! Look, a few minutes ago you said you didn't want to just wait here to be captured. Now all you want to do is stay?

Han Solo

Marching into the detention area is not what I had in mind.

Luke Skywalker

But they're going to kill her!

Han Solo

Better her than me!

Luke Skywalker

[pauses for a moment, then leans in close to Han]

She's rich.

Han Solo

Rich?

Luke Skywalker

Rich. Powerful. Listen, if you were to rescue her, the reward would be...

Han Solo

What?

Luke Skywalker

Well, more wealth than you can imagine!

Han Solo

I don't know, I can imagine quite a bit!

Luke Skywalker

You'll get it.

Han Solo

I better.

Luke Skywalker

You will.

Han Solo

All right, kid. But you'd better be right about this.
