EXT. SPACECRAFT IN SPACE

The Imperial craft has easily overtaken the Rebel Blockade

Runner. The smaller Rebel ship is being drawn into the

underside dock of the giant Imperial starship.

INT. REBEL BLOCKADE RUNNER

The nervous Rebel troopers aim their weapons. Suddenly a

tremendous blast opens up a hole in the main passageway and

a score of fearsome armored spacesuited stormtroopers make

their way into the smoke-filled corridor.

In a few minutes the entire passageway is ablaze with

laserfire. The deadly bolts ricochet in wild random patterns

creating huge explosions. Stormtroopers scatter and duck

behind storage lockers. Laserbolts hit several Rebel soldiers

who scream and stagger through the smoke, holding shattered

arms and faces.

An explosion hits near the robots.

EXT. TATOOINE - DESERT WASTELAND - DAY

A death-white wasteland stretches from horizon to horizon.

The tremendous heat of two huge twin suns settle on a lone

figure, Luke Skywalker, a farm boy with heroic aspirations

who looks much younger than his eighteen years. His shaggy

hair and baggy tunic give him the air of a simple but lovable

lad with a prize-winning smile.

A light wind whips at him as he adjusts several valves on a

large battered moisture vaporator which sticks out of the

desert floor much like an oil pipe with valves. He is aided

by a beatup tread-robot with six claw arms. The little robot

appears to be barely functioning and moves with jerky motions.

A bright sparkle in the morning sky catches Luke's eye and

he instinctively grabs a pair of electrobinoculars from his

utility belt. He stands transfixed for a few moments studying

the heavens, then dashed toward his dented, crudely repaired

Landspeeder (an auto-like transport that travels a few feet

above the ground on a magnetic-field). He motions for the

tiny robot to follow him.

LUKE

Hurry up! Come with me! What are you

waiting for?! Get in gear!

The robot scoots around in a tight circle, stops short, and

smoke begins to pour out of every joint. Luke throws his

arms up in disgust. Exasperated, the young farm boy jumps

into his Landspeeder leaving the smoldering robot to hum

madly.

INT. REBEL BLOCKADE RUNNER - MAIN HALLWAY

The awesome, seven-foot-tall Dark Lord of the Sith makes his

way into the blinding light of the main passageway. This is

Darth Vader, right hand of the Emperor. His face is obscured

by his flowing black robes and grotesque breath mask, which

stands out next to the fascist white armored suits of the

Imperial stormtroopers. Everyone instinctively backs away

from the imposing warrior and a deathly quiet sweeps through

the Rebel troops. Several of the Rebel troops break and run

in a frenzied panic.

INT. REBEL BLOCKADE RUNNER

A woman's hand puts a card into an opening in Artoo's dome.

Artoo makes beeping sounds.

INT. REBEL BLOCKADE RUNNER

Threepio stands in a hallway, somewhat bewildered. Artoo is

nowhere in sight. The pitiful screams of the doomed Rebel

soldiers can be heard in the distance.

THREEPIO

At last! Where have you been?

Stormtroopers can be heard battling in the distance.

THREEPIO

They're heading in this direction.

What are we going to do? We'll be

sent to the spice mine of Kessel or

smashed into who knows what!

Artoo scoots past his bronze friend and races down the

subhallway. Threepio chases after him.

THREEPIO

Wait a minute, where are you going?

Artoo responds with electronic beeps.
