Han Solo:
Stay sharp. There's two more coming in. They're gonna try and cut us off.
[CUTTING-ROOM FLOOR-LINE; turns to Luke and Obi-Wan]
Han Solo:
What did you guys do to attract this kind of attention, anyhow?
Luke:
Couldn't we outrun them first and explain ourselves later? You said something about the Kessel Run.
Han Solo:
Watch the wisecracks, kid, or you're gonna find yourself floating home! I'm nobody's straight-man, not on my own ship!... We'll be safe enough once we make the jump to hyperspace. Besides, I know a few maneuvers which ought to shake the more persistent ones.
[CUTTING-ROOM FLOOR-LINE]
Han Solo:
I just wish I'd known how *popular* the two of you were.
Luke:
[CUTTING-ROOM FLOOR-LINE]
Don't tell me you would've turned us away.
Han Solo:
[CUTTING-ROOM FLOOR-LINE]
No; far more likely, all I would've done was boost your fare... considerably.
[the ship shudders as an explosion flashes outside the window]
Han Solo:
Here's where the fun begins!
Obi-Wan:
How long before you can make the jump to hyperspace?
Han Solo:
It'll take a few moments to get the coordinates from the nav-com.
[CUTTING-ROOM FLOOR-LINE]
Han Solo:
I could override it, but the drive might shred itself.
[the ship rocks violently as it is straddled with particle-beams]
Luke:
Do we *have* a few moments? At the rate they're gaining...!
Han Solo:
Traveling through hyperspace ain't like dusting crops, farm-boy!
[CUTTING-ROOM FLOOR-LINE]
Han Solo:
Ever try calculating a jump to light-speed?
[Luke shakes his head]
Han Solo:
Didn't think so; well, it's no parlor trick. Without precise calculations we could fly right through a supernova, or bounce into a singularity. I've seen it happen, too; I only wish I hadn't.
Luke:
[notices a flashing light]
... What does that mean? What's happening?
Han Solo:
[noticing it also]
Uh-oh, we're losing a deflector shield. Go strap yourselves in, we're ready to make the jump. If we take a burst at the wrong moment...
[They escape]
