| Nov 17, 2016 at 16:05 | comment | added | Ghoti and Chips | @Xantec The image of the emperor descending from a ship in the sky, "swooping down with the lightning" has had me laughing for a good 2 minutes as of writing this comment. | |

| Jun 29, 2016 at 19:51 | comment | added | John Sensebe | It was part of Obi-Wan's clever disguise: "The Empire will be looking for an Obi-Wan Kenobi, so I'll be Ben Kenobi. And wear my Jedi robes all the time. And carry a lightsaber. On the planet I first met Anakin Skywalker, But be Ben. That'll fool 'em." | |
