1 Emperor: {to Luke} As you can see, my young apprentice, your friends have failed. Now witness the firepower of this fully armed and operational battle station.
2 Vader: Excuse me, my master... The new Death Star is already operational?
2 Emperor: Yes, Lord Vader. Excellent work.
3 Vader: But, then, why are we still building all those missing decks?
4 Vader: We could be using all that time and money training the Stormtroopers to shoot straight.

Finally, now that Colonel Haken is back in the Monty Jones universe where he belongs, I can do some of the Star Wars strips that have been lying idle in my ideas file for several weeks.

This one was inspired by a chat room comment by Steven Ehrbar.
