The Falcon flew off and departed Hoth![](MyCollection_Unit_Hoth (planet).jpg) | HothPlanet | . While pursued by Imperial TIE fighters![](MyCollection_Unit_TIE Fighter.jpg) | TIE FighterStarshipStarfighter Models | , Han realized that the hyperdrive has been damaged and he can't make a jump. He tried to fix the hyperdrive system but to no avail, and then decided to fly the Falcon into an asteroid field in attempt to to hamper the pursuit. He managed to evade pursuing TIEs and land his ship inside a cavern on one of the larger asteroids. Vader![](MyCollection_Unit_Darth Vader.jpg) | Darth Vader(Human)CharacterMajor Characters | ordered the Death Squadron to begin sweeping the asteroid field to find the Millennium Falcon. On the Executor![](MyCollection_Unit_Executor (Super-class Star Destroyer).jpg) | Executor(Super-class Star Destroyer)StarshipNamed Starships | , Vader communicates with the captains of the other ships, captain Needa![](MyCollection_Unit_Needa, Lorth.jpg) | Needa(Human)CharacterSupporting Characters | told Vader that they should consider their damage, but Vader firmly replied that they will continue the search. Shortly afterward, Admiral Piett![](MyCollection_Unit_Piett, Firmus.jpg) | Firmus Piett(Human)CharacterSupporting Characters | informed Vader that Emperor![](MyCollection_Unit_Palpatine.jpg) | Palpatine(Human)CharacterMajor Characters | commanded that he make contact immediately. Vader ordered his ship out of the asteroid field for a clear transmission and contacted the Emperor. The next day, while cleaning mynocks![](MyCollection_Unit_Mynock (Creature).jpg) | MynockCreatureNon-sentient | off the Falcon, Solo and his companions were forced to escape what turns out to be a titanic space slug![](MyCollection_Unit_Exogorth.jpg) | ExogorthCreatureNon-sentient | , which resided in the asteroid the Falcon landed on, and was disturbed by the TIE Bombers![](MyCollection_Unit_TIE Bomber.jpg) | TIE BomberStarshipStarfighter Models | strafing runs. Back on the Star Destroyer, Vader enlisted the bounty hunters![](MyCollection_Unit_Bounty Hunter.jpg) | Bounty HunterOrganizationCommunities | , Boba Fett![](MyCollection_Unit_Fett, Boba.jpg) | Boba Fett(Human (Clone))CharacterMajor Characters | , Dengar![](MyCollection_Unit_Dengar.jpg) | Dengar(Human)CharacterSupporting Characters | , IG-88![](MyCollection_Unit_IG-88B.jpg) | IG-88B(IG-series Assassin Droid)CharacterDroids | , Bossk![](MyCollection_Unit_Bossk.jpg) | Bossk(Trandoshan)CharacterSupporting Characters | , 4-LOM![](MyCollection_Unit_4-LOM.jpg) | 4-LOM(LOM-series Protocol Droid)CharacterDroids | and Zuckuss![](MyCollection_Unit_Zuckuss.jpg) | Zuckuss(Gand)CharacterSupporting Characters | to find the Millennium Falcon for a "substantial reward". One of the Imperial commanders finally spotted the Falcon, leading to another pursuit which resulted in the Falcon making the insanely counter intuitive move of attacking the lead Star Destroyer. However, at the last moment, the ship veered off and secretly attached itself to the rear of the cruiser's command tower, which is not extensively covered by sensors, making it appear to have vanished from the Destroyer's point of view. When the fleet dispersed to search for the Falcon, the Rebels waited for the ship to do its standard dump of refuse before jumping, then detached to float away with it. The Falcon's hyperdrive still needed repairs, so Han decideed to make their way to Cloud City![](MyCollection_Unit_Cloud City.jpg) | Cloud CityStarshipPlanetary Superstructures | , a gas-mining colony run by his old friend Lando Calrissian![](MyCollection_Unit_Calrissian, Lando.jpg) | Lando Calrissian(Human)CharacterMajor Characters | .
