Governor Tarkin. I should have expected to find you holding Vader's leash. I recognized your foul stench when I was brought on board. Charming to the last. You don't know how hard I found it... signing the order to terminate your life. I'm surprised you had the courage to take the responsibility yourself. Princess Leia, before your execution... I would like you to be my guest at a ceremony... that will make this battle station operational. No star system will dare oppose the emperor now. The more you tighten your grip, Tarkin... the more star systems will slip through your fingers. Not after we demonstrate the power of this station. In a way, you have determined the choice of the planet... that'll be destroyed first. Since you are reluctant to provide us with the location of the rebel base... I have chosen to test this station's destructive power... on your home planet of Alderaan.

Stay sharp. There's two more comin' in. They're gonna try and cut us off. Why don't you outrun 'em? You said this thing was fast. Watch your mouth or you're gonna find yourself floating home. We'll be safe enough once we make the jump to hyperspace. Besides, I know a few maneuvers. We'll lose 'em. Here's where the fun begins. How long before you can jump to light speed? It'll take a few moments to get the coordinates from the navicomputer. Are you kidding? At the rate they're gaining? Traveling through hyperspace ain't like dustin' crops, boy. Without precise calculations, we'd fly right through a star... or bounce too close to a supernova, and that would end your trip real quick. - What's that flashing? - We're losing a deflector shield. Go strap yourselves in. I'm gonna make the jump to light speed.

Going somewhere, Solo? Yes, Greedo. As a matter of fact, I was just going to see your boss. Tell Jabba that I've got his money. It's too late. You should have paid him when you had the chance. Jabba's put a price on your head so large every bounty hunter in the galaxy will be looking for you...

Yes? We've captured a freighter entering the remains of the Alderaan system. Its markings match those of a ship that blasted its way out of Mos Eisley. They must be trying to return the stolen plans to the princess. She may yet be of some use to us.
