Watch this scene again. Leia is flirting with Luke, while thinking he's an Imperial stormtrooper.

She's getting cozy with Imperial troops.

Is this merely some sort of ploy to try to seduce a guard and escape... from her cell and into the middle of a fully armed and operational battle station? In the middle of space? If this is her excuse, what the heck is she thinking?

Or does she really have a thing for cute stormtroopers?

Maybe she's suffering from some sort of Stockholm syndrome?

Just what the heck is going on here?
