9 quotesThen I'll see you in Hell!
Shut him up or shut him down!
Lando Calrissian. He's a card player, a gambler, a scoundrel. You'd like him.
Chewie, this won't help me! Save your strength, there'll be another time! The princess, you have to take care of her! Do ya hear me?
Laugh it up, fuzz-ball.
Who's scruffy- looking?
I know.
Never tell me the odds!
Scenes with Han Solo
10 scenesYes, Your Highnessness?
I thought you had decided to stay.
Well the bounty hunter we ran into in Ord Mantell changed my mind.
Han, we need you!
We need?
Yes.
Well, what about you need?
I need? I don't know what you're talking about.
You probably don't.
And what precisely am I supposed to know?
Come on! You want me to stay because of the way you feel about me.
Yes! You're a great help to us, you're a natural leader.
No! That's not it. Come on... [Points at himself] A-ha! Come on!
You're imagining things.
Am I? Then why are you following me? Afraid I was gonna leave without giving you a goodbye kiss?
I'd just as soon kiss a Wookiee!
I can arrange that. [Angrily storms down the hallway] You could use a good kiss!
Well, Your Worship, it looks like you managed to keep me here a while longer.
I had nothing to do with it. General Rieekan thinks it's dangerous for any ships to leave the system until they've activated the energy shield.
That's a good story. I just think you can't bear to let a gorgeous guy like me out of your sight.
I don't know where you get your delusions, laser brain.
Laugh it up, fuzzball! [To Luke] You didn't see us alone in the south passage. She expressed her true feelings for me.
What? [annoyed] Why, you stuck up, half-witted, scruffy-looking... nerf-herder!
Who's scruffy looking? [To Luke] Must have hit it pretty close to the mark to get her all riled up like that, huh, kid?
Well, I guess you don't know everything about women yet. [suddenly kisses Luke in front of Han]
Sir, the odds of successfully navigating an asteroid field is approximately three-thousand-seven-hundred-twenty to one!
Never tell me the odds!
You said you wanted to be around when I made a mistake. Well, this could be it, sweetheart.
I take it back!
I'm going to shut everything down but the emergency power systems.
Sir, I'm almost afraid to ask but, does that include shutting me down?
No, I need you to talk to the Falcon and find out what's wrong with the hyperdrive.
Not entirely stable? Well, I'm glad you're here to tell us these things! Chewie, take the professor into the back and plug him into the hyperdrive!
Let go.
Shh!
Let go, please.
Don't get excited!
Captain, being held by you isn't quite enough to get me excited.
Sorry sweetheart. I haven't got time for anything else.
Hey, Your Worship, I'm only trying to help.
Would you please stop calling me that?
Sure, Leia.
You make it so difficult sometimes.
I do, I really do. You could be a little nicer, though. Come on, admit it. Sometimes you think I'm alright.
Occasionally, maybe... when you aren't acting like a scoundrel.
Scoundrel? Scoundrel? I like the sound of that. [Grabs and rubs Leia's hand]
Stop that.
Stop what?
My hands are dirty too. What are you afraid of?
Afraid?
You're trembling.
I'm not trembling.
You like me because I'm a scoundrel. There aren't enough scoundrels in your life.
I happen to like nice men.
I'm a nice man.
No you're not. You're—
Sir! Sir! I've isolated the reverse power flux coupling!
Thank you! Thank you very much!
Oh, you're perfectly welcome, sir.
[Leia walks away.]
All right, Chewie. Let's get outta here!
The Empire is still out there! I don't think it's wise to—
No time to discuss this in a committee!
I am not a committee!
Sir, the odds of surviving a direct assault on an Imperial Star Destroyer are precisely—
Shut up!
I know.
You can't make the jump to light-speed in this asteroid field!
Sit down, sweetheart; we're taking off!
Look!!
I see it, I see it!
We're doomed!
The cave is collapsing!
This is no cave!
What?!
Get out of here, Lando.
Shut up and listen! Now Vader has agreed to turn Leia and Chewie over to me.
Over to you?
They'll have to stay here, but at least they'll be safe.
What about Han?
Vader's giving him to the bounty hunter.
Vader wants us all dead!
No. He doesn't want you at all! He's after somebody called, uh... Skywalker!
Luke!
Lord Vader has set a trap for him!
And we're the bait!
Yeah. Well, he's on his way.
Perfect. You've fixed us all real good, didn't you? My friend. [punches Lando in the face; the two security guards come up behind Han and hit him with their clubs, causing him to fall down on the floor. The guards prepare to hit him again]
Stop! [the guards back down while Lando talks to Han, Chewie and Leia] I've done all I can. I'm sorry I couldn't do better, but I've got my own problems. I've already stuck my neck out farther than I should!
Yeah. You're a real hero. [Lando glares at Han, then leaves the room with his two security guards]
