This movie, Return of the Jedi, was originally named Revenge of the Jedi. For some strange reason the people at Lucasfilm chanced it to Return of the Jedi. In Return of the Jedi, Boba Fett is delivering Han, in his carbonite state, to Jabba the Hutt. Luke decides to send a rescue mission for Han that consists of Lando Calrissian, and Leia Organa. Artoo Deetoo and See Three Pio are sent as presents to Jabba from Luke Skywalker. Jabba refuses to trade Han for 3PO and R2. Jabba decideds to keep the droids though. Now it is Leia's turn to go and attempt to rescue Han. She takes Chewie to Jabba's palace as a Bounty Hunter named Boushh. She manages to turn Chewie in, but her efforts to free Han were futile. She managed to free him from the carbonite, but was caught in the action of doing so. She remained at Jabba's side for the rest of the time she was at his court. Soon Luke came in to bargain with Jabba. But he got mad at Luke and threw him in his Rancor pit. Luke was a Jedi, as Jabba had underestimated him, Luke defeated the enormous beast. Luke and his friends were held captive at Jabba's court and were sentenced to death at mighty Sarlac. Luke had a plan and when everyone arrived at the Sarlac to watch Luke, Han, and Chewie die at the Sarlac. Luke was first to go and when he gave the signal, R2 launched his lightsaber to him. Luke and Chewie and Han defeated all aboard their skiff and blew up Jabba's. Leia was saved by Luke just before the skiff blew up. Luke then retreats to Yoda's homeworld of Degobah to complete his Jedi training. But Luke soon learns that Yoda is ill and soon dies. As Luke is leaving for his rebel base, the ghostly figure of Ben Kenobi appears only to reveal Yoda's last words; There is another Sky...walk...errrrrrrrr. Luke realizes that Leia is his sister! Luke returns to the rebel base only to discover that they are planing their 2nd attack on the 2nd Death Star.
