ANNOUNCER: Ladies and
gentlemen, George Lucas can't seem to leave things well enough alone. Next
year, Mr. Lucas has decided to re-release his original Star Wars trilogy, this
time as the Extra-Special Editions, with even more new scenes added in. Most of
the changes will be minor, but there is one big moment added back in to Return
of the Jedi. And
today, you're getting a sneak preview of the original, uncut Dagobah scene,
when Luke Skywalker learns the identity of his twin sister...
Luke and Ben sit on a
log.
LUKE- Yoda spoke of
another.
BEN- The other he spoke of
is your twin sister.
LUKE- But I have no sister.
BEN- Hmm. To protect you
both from the Emperor, you were hidden from your father when you were born. The
Emperor knew, as I did, if Anakin were to have any offspring, they would be a
threat to him. That is the reason why your sister remains safely anonymous.
LUKE- Leia! Leia is my
sister!
BEN- Your insights serve
you well. Bury your feelings deep down, Luke. They do you credit. But they
could--
LUKE- WHOA!!!
BEN- Excuse me, I was
making a point?
LUKE- Oh my gosh... oh my
GOSH!!
BEN- Something the matter?
LUKE- Ben, Leia is my
sister!!
BEN- Yes.
LUKE- She's my sister!
BEN- Yes, I know. We
covered that.
LUKE- I kissed my sister!
BEN- You what?
LUKE- I kissed my SISTER!
BEN- That's not uncommon
for a brother and a sister to show affection with a kiss.
LUKE- I kissed her on the
LIPS, Ben!
BEN- When did this happen?
LUKE- On the Death Star!
She and I were on a ledge. The bridge was out, so I threw a rope and she held
on and before we swung across--
BEN- You kissed her?
LUKE- No, no technically...
she kissed me. You know, "for luck."
BEN- In my experience,
there's no such thing as luck.
LUKE- Well, in my
experience that would be called pretty BAD luck to kiss your sister.
BEN- Right, well, as I was
saying, bury your feelings deep down, Luke. They do--
LUKE- WHOA!!!
BEN- Now what?
LUKE- HOLY CRAP!! I forgot
about Hoth!!
BEN- What about Hoth?
LUKE- (gagging) Ewww!!
Luke
gets on his knees starts gagging. He scoops swamp water in his mouth and
gargles and spits.
BEN- What's wrong now?
LUKE- I kissed her again. A
couple years later, we were on Hoth, she and Han were having this fight, and
then she grabbed me and that time (gagging) OH MY--
Luke
gargles and spits some more nasty swamp water.
BEN- Are you feeling okay?
LUKE- I kissed my sister!!
BEN- So you keep saying.
LUKE- No, I mean I
FRENCH-kissed her, Ben! I FRENCHED my sister!!
BEN- You know, it's not
doing you any good to dwell on this.
LUKE- You! You did this to
me! You've known all along! Haven't you?
BEN- What, that you were
hot for your sister?
LUKE- You KNEW on Tatooine
that I was looking at a film of my own sister and you NEVER TOLD ME?
BEN- That's not important,
Luke.
LUKE- Not important???
Telling the poor, never-been-kissed farm boy that the hot, sexy princess he's
flying off to rescue is his fine lookin' sister is NOT IMPORTANT?
BEN- It's not like I knew
you'd stick your tongue down her throat!
LUKE- Then what the heck is
that stupid Force good for if you can't stop your student from FRENCHING HIS
SISTER???
BEN- Can we finish this so
you can go kill your father?
LUKE- Kill my father?
Right! Sure! As soon as he finds out I made out with my sister, he's gonna kill
ME!
BEN- You know, Luke...
forget it. Just forget it! Go fight Vader, get yourself killed. We've got
another Jedi to train in Leia, so if you can't kill Daddy, maybe she can.
Ben stands, walks off.
LUKE- Yeah whatever. Train
my sister, see if I care. (beat) Just make sure you don't mention the fact she played tonsil
hockey with her BROTHER!!!
