. Luke jumps out of his skin. Artoo screeches in terror. The
. young warrior grabs for his lightsaber as he spins around,
. looking for the speaker. Mysteriously standing right in front
. of Luke is a strange, bluish creature, not more than two feet
. tall. The wizened little thing is dressed in rags. It motions
. toward Luke's sword.
.
.
. Try not, do or do not. There is no try.
.

.LUKE: (looking at the creature) Like we're being watched!
.CREATURE: Away with your weapon! I mean you no harm.
. After some hesitation, Luke puts away his weapon, although
. he really doesn't understand why. Artoo watches with interest.
.CREATURE: I am wondering, why are you here?
.LUKE: I'm looking for someone.
.CREATURE: Looking? Found someone, you have, I would say, hmmm?
. The little creature laughs.
.LUKE: (Trying to keep from smiling) Right.
.CREATURE: Help you I can. Yes, mmmm.
.LUKE: I don't think so. I'm looking for a great warrior.
.CREATURE: Ahhh! A great warrior. (laughs and shakes his head) Wars not
. make one great.
. With the aid of a walking stick, the tiny stranger moves
. over to one of the cases of supplies. He begins to rummage
. around.
. Artoo moves to the edge of the case -- standing almost eye
. level to the creature who is carelessly handling the supplies
. -- and squeaks his disapproval.
. Their tiny visitor pick up the container of food Luke was
. eating from and takes a bite.LUKE: Put that down. Hey! That's my
. dinner. The creature spits out the bite he has taken. He makes a
. face.
.CREATURE: How you get so big, eating food of this kind?
. He flips the container in Luke's direction and reaches into
. one of Luke's supply cases.
.LUKE: Listen, friend, we didn't mean to land in that puddle, and if we
.could get our ship out, we would, but we can't, so why don't youjust...
.CREATURE: (teasing) Aww, cannot get your ship out?
. The creature spots something of interest in Luke's case.
. Luke loses patience and grabs the case away. The creature
. retains his prize -- a tiny power lamp -- and examines it with
. delight.
.LUKE: Hey, you could have broken this. Don't do that. Ohhh...you're
.making a mess. Hey, give me that!
.CREATURE: (retreating with the lamp) Mine! Or I will help you not.
. Clutching its treasure, the creature backs away from Luke,
. drawing closer to Artoo. As Luke and the creature argue, one
. of Artoo's little arms slowly moves out toward the power lamp,
. completely unnoticed by the creature.
.LUKE: I don't want your help. I want my lamp back. I'll need it to get
. out of this slimy mudhole.CREATURE: Mudhole? Slimy? My home this is.
. Artoo grabs hold of the lamp and the two little figures are
. immediately engaged in a tug-of-war over it.
.Artoo beeps a few angry, 'Give me thats.'
.CREATURE: Ah, ah, ah!
.LUKE: Oh, Artoo, let him have it.CREATURE: Mine! Mine!LUKE: Artoo!
.CREATURE: Mine!
. The creature lets go with one hand and pokes Artoo lightly
. with one finger. Artoo reacts with a startled squeal, and lets
. go.CREATURE: Mine!
.LUKE: (fed up) Now will you move along, little fella? We're got a lot
. of work to do.
.CREATURE: No! No, no! Stay and help you, I will. (laughs) Find yourfriend, hmdesc + .LUKE: I'm not looking for a friend, I'm looking for a Jedi Master.
.CREATURE: Oohhh. Jedi Master. Yoda. You seek Yoda.
