Star Wars Episode VI: Return of the Jedi1983

[Luke has stepped out of the Ewok party. Leia joins him.]

Princess Leia Organa:
Luke, what's wrong?

Luke:
Leia, do you remember your mother? Your real mother?

Leia:
Just a little bit. She died when I was very young.

Luke:
What do you remember?

Leia:
Just images, really. Feelings.

Luke:
Tell me.

Leia:
She was very beautiful. Kind, but sad. Why are you asking me all this?

Luke:
I have no memory of my mother. I never knew her.

Leia:
Luke, tell me. What's troubling you?

Luke:
Vader's here. Now, on this moon.

Leia:
How do you know?

Luke:
I felt his presence. He's come for me. He can feel when I'm near. That's why I have to go. As long as I stay, I'm endangering the group and our mission here. I have to face him.

Leia:
Why?

Luke:
He's my father.

Leia:
[shocked] Your father?!

Luke:
There's more. It won't be easy for you to hear it, but you must. If I don't make it back, you're the only hope for the Alliance.

Leia:
Luke, don't talk that way! You have a power I don't understand and could never have.

Luke:
You're wrong, Leia. You have that power too. In time you'll learn to use it as I have. The Force is strong in my family. My father has it. I have it and... [looks directly at Leia] My sister has it. [waits for the words to sink in] Yes. It's you, Leia.

Leia:
[astonished] I know. Somehow, I've always known.

Luke:
Then you know why I have to face him.

Leia:
No! Luke, run away, far away! If he can feel your presence, then leave this place! I wish I could go with you.

Luke:
No, you don't. You've always been strong.

Leia:
But why must you confront him?

Luke:
Because there is good in him. I've felt it. He won't turn me over to the Emperor. I can save him. I can turn him back to the good side. I have to try. [kisses Leia on the cheek, then leaves]

Han:
[seeing Luke leave] Hey, what's goin' on?

Leia:
Nothing. I just want to be alone for a little while.

Han:
Nothing? Come on, tell me. What's goin' on?

Leia:
[distressed] I... I can't tell you!

Han:
[angrily] What, could you tell Luke? Is that who you could tell?

Leia:
[crying] I- [turns away from Han]

Han:
[grunts angrily and starts to storm away, but stops and returns to Leia a moment later] I'm sorry.

Leia:
[leaning against Han] Hold me.
