  • In the hangar, Han is packing up his reward to pay back Jabba.
  • Luke confronts him, saying the rebels could use a good pilot like him, but Han counters that a reward isn't worth much if you don't get to use it. Touché.

  • Leia runs into Luke, who's upset over Han's decision.
  • Leia reminds him that Han will have to choose his own path.
