(all my famous lines) THE STAR WARS NPR RADIO DRAMA FROM 1980 Lines not spoken in the 1977 film but featured in the radio drama INT. LARS HOMESTEAD: BERU'S KITCHEN BERU LUKE! LUKE! ARE YOU UP YET? BREAKFAST IS READY! Sound: Cooking with appropriate techno-chem sounds LUKE (approaching, yawning) MORNING, AUNT BERU. (He kisses her cheek quickly) BERU GOOD MORNING, DEAR. I'M AFRAID YOUR UNCLE IS IN A BIG HURRY TODAY; HE SAYS THINGS ARE STILL BEHIND SCHEDULE. SIT DOWN AND EAT YOUR BREAKFAST BEFORE IT GETS COLD. LUKE ALL RIGHT, BUT I DON'T THINK THE DESERT IS GOING ANYWHERE. OWEN (approaching) NO, IT'S STILL THERE, LUKE. AND IF WE DON'T GET READY FOR THE SEASON IN TIME, IT'LL ALWAYS BE JUST THAT, A DESERT. NOW THAT THERE'S NO MORE TIME FOR NONSENSE; I WANT YOU TO KEEP YOUR MIND ON YOUR WORK TODAY. Sound: A chair being drawn up tot he table; tableware, plates, etc. LUKE YES SIR. OWEN KEEP AN EYE PEELED YOU'RE OUT TODAY; THERE'VE BEEN REPORTS OF SAND PEOPLE. I WANT YOU TO SEE WHAT YOU CAN DO ABOUT THE UNITS UP ON THE SOUTH RIDGE. I EXPECT 'EM ALL TO BE RUNNING 100 PERCENT AND SMOOTH BEFORE DAY'S END. LUKE UNCLE OWEN, HOSE VAPORATORS ARE TEN YEARS OLD! THEY SHOULD'VE BEEN REPLACED LONG AGO. OWEN YOU CAN GET THEM FUNCTIONING UP TO SPECS IF YOU ROLL BACK YOUR SLEEVES AND QUIT YOUR DAYDREAMING! I NEED ALL THE HELP I CAN GET, NOT A NEPHEW WITH HIS HEAD IN THE STARS HALF THE TIME. YOU MIND WORK NOW, OR THERE'LL BE TROUBLE, I'LL TELL YOU THAT MUCH! BERU OWEN! (Thinking better of it and forgoing an argument) HERE, FINISH WHAT'S LEFT BEFORE IT GETS COLD, BOTH OF YOU. Sound: Scraping, pouring, etc. BERU LUKE, DEAR, I PACKED A LUNCH FOR YOU. I PUT IT IN YOUR LANDSPEEDER SO YOU WOULDN'T FORGET IT. LUKE THANKS, AUNT BERU. I, UH, GUESS I'D BETTER GET GOING. Sound: His chair slides back OWEN TAKE THE TREADWELL WITH YOU. LUKE THAT OLD DROID'S IN WORSE SHAPE THAN THE VAPORATORS, UNClE OWEN. (pause) UNCLE, WHAT ABOUT GETTING SOME NEW DROIDS? OWEN JUST WHAT I NEED, ANOTHER EXPENSE! LUKE BUT WITH ANOTHER DROID OR TWO WE COULD KEEP THE WHOLE FARM AT PEAK EFFICIENCY THROUGH THE HARVEST. I COULD CHECK AROUND AT TOSHI STATION AND ANCHORHEAD, AND THERE OUGHT TO BE A JAWA SANDCRAWLER PASSING THOUGH ANY TIME NOW. MAYBE THEY'D HAVE SOMETHING WE COULD USE. OWEN LUKE, IF YOU QUIT YOUR DAYDREAMING AND DO YOUR SHARE, WE WON'T NEED ANY NEW DROIDS! NOW, I'VE NEVER LET YOU WANT FOR ANYTHING, HAVE I? HUH? WELL THEN, YOUNG FELLA, THE LEAST YOU WOULD DO IS SHOW SOME GRATITUDE AND--- BERU (interrupting) OWEN LARS! (pause, then more kindly) OWEN, WE COULD USE A LITTLE MORE HELP. A DROID THAT SPOKE DOMESTIC BOCCE COULD HELP ME AROUND THE HOUSE, TOO, WHEN YOU DIDN'T NEED IT. OWEN WELL... BERU (meaningfully) GOOD-BYE, LUKE, DEAR. LUKE (taking the hint) UM, G'BYE, AUNT BERU. (moving off) I'LL DO MY BEST WITH THOSE VAPORATORS, UNCLE OWEN. BERU HONESTLY, OWEN, I DON'T KNOW WHAT GETS INTO YOU SOMETIMES. LUKE'S NEVER ASKED US FOR ANYTHING. HE WORKS AS HARD AS ANY MAN; HE COULD'VE GONE OFF ON HIS OWN LONG AGO, AND YOU KNOW THAT. OWEN BERU, WITH HIS MIND WANDERING HALF THE TIME, HE'S NEVER GOING TO MAKE HIS WAY IN THIS LIFE. BERU (unexpectedly fervent) BUT YOU CAN'T BEGRUDGE HIM OF HIS DREAMS! I'VE NEVER ONCE COMPLAINED ABOUT LIVING OUT HERE OR HARDLY SEEING OTHER PEOPLE OR GOING WITHOUT WHEN THE MOISTURE HARVEST WAS BAD, HAVE I? OWEN NOW SEE HERE, MISSUS, I NEVER SAID YOU--- BERU (interrupting) EVEN TO THE YOUNG PEOPLE OVER AT ANCHORHEAD LUKE IS AN OUTSIDER. HE HASN'T HAD A CLOSE FRIEND SINCE BIGGS WENT TO THE ACADEMY. OWEN I...I DON'T WANT HIM GETTING HURT, BERU. I WANT WHAT'S BEST FOR LUKE. BERU I KNOW THAT, OWEN. BUT IT WOULDN'T HURT TO TELL HIM SO. Sound: Owen's chair scrapes as he rises. OWEN I'LL BE MOST OF THE DAY ON THOSE CONDENSERS IN THE UPPER BASIN. WON'T BE HOME TILL EVENING, I EXPECT. BERU I'LL HAVE SUPPER WAITING, OWEN. Music: Up.
