| My twisted point of
view on the story...
In
a Mos Eisley cantina, Han met this farmboy, Luke and an old
fossil, Obi Wan. They wanted a ride to Alderaan minus the
Imperial entanglements.
Han obliged (after a promise of a lot of $$$) and flew them
there... but there was no Alderaan! There was trouble though, in
the form of a small moon. "That is no moon!" said old
Obi Wan. It was the Death Star! Too late! They were caught in
its tractor beam.
The Imps failed to find them in the Millennium
Falcon.
Good thing Han has smuggler's holds built-in! Han and Luke
impersonated Imperial stormtroopers to free themselves. Obi Wan
went to switch off the tractor beam, leaving those two reckless
handsome young men to sit still (as if they will!).
Han and Luke didn't sit still for long (see? I told you so!).
They took Chewbacca for a walk to the detention level, as an
excuse to free Princess Leia there. But they couldn't get out
the same way they got in so the Princess had to find a way out
for them... through the 'incredible smelly' garbage masher.
Eventually, with the help of their droids, they got out with
more than body ordour. It's a wonder the Imps didn't smell them
out!
They got back to the Falcon, which had been freed by Obi Wan,
who came along in spirit literally. Then they flew to Yavin,
where Han got paid for the rides.
Han flew away to pay off his debts, but somehow he got back to
save Luke from being fried by his dad. He got a medal for that.
Chewie got his later in an MTV programme. On Yavin, Han looked
at the jungle and thought he may find something in a place like
it, like meeting his triplet brothers, the archeologist and the
policeman, but that's another story.
