Title:
Star Wars
Synopsis:
After Han Solo skillfully pilots the Millennium Falcon to destroy two TIE fighters, Princess Leia mentions that Jedi pilots developed that same maneuver. She recounts one particular event involving Obi-Wan Kenobi.
Kenobi, traveling as a passenger on a pleasure cruiser, is notified by Captain Quasar that Merson pirates have been spotted in the Merson asteroid belt. The attacking ships are quickly destroyed, but Obi-Wan suspects the Mersons to have been lured by a signal from within the cruiser. The other passengers immediately accuse Augustus Tryll, a known criminal, of working with the Mersons, but Kenobi is not as quick to judge without proof. When more Merson ships are spotted, he realizes that the signal the pirates are tracking is originating from an innocent fermentation device on board the cruiser. Once he destroys this device, the Merson ships lose track of the pleasure cruiser, and danger is avoided.
