Dialog transcript

Chewbacca and the two droids sit around the dejarik table, Chewbacca seems very pleased with himself as he rests his lanky fur-covered arms over his head.
C-3PO
Now be careful, Artoo.
Artoo immediately reaches up and taps the computer with his manipulator, causing one of the holographic creatures to walk to the new square. A sudden frown crosses Chewbacca's face and he begins yelling in Shyriiwook at R2. Threepio intercedes on behalf of his small companion and begins to argue with the huge Wookiee.
C-3PO
He made a fair move. Screaming about it won't help you.
Han Solo
Let him have it. It's not wise to upset a Wookiee.
C-3PO
But sir, nobody worries about upsetting a droid.
Han Solo
That's 'cause droids don't pull people's arms out of their socket when they lose. Wookiees are known to do that.
C-3PO
I see your point, sir. I suggest a new strategy, Artoo. Let the Wookiee win.

Dialog transcript

Luke stands in the middle of the small hold area, he seems frozen in place. A humming lightsaber is held high over his head. Ben watches him from the corner, studying his movements. Han watches with a bit of smugness.
Obi-Wan Kenobi
Remember, a Jedi can feel the Force flowing through him.
Luke Skywalker
You mean it controls your actions?
Obi-Wan Kenobi
Partially. But it also obeys your commands.
Suspended at eye level, about ten feet in front of Luke, a seeker remote hovers slowly in a wide arc. The remote floats to one side of the youth then the other. Suddenly it makes a lightning-swift lunge and stops within a few feet of Luke's face. Luke doesn't move and the ball backs off. It slowly moves behind the boy, then makes another quick lunge, this time emitting laser beam as it attacks. It hits Luke in the leg causing him to tumble over. Han lets loose with a burst of laughter.
Han Solo
Hokey religions and ancient weapons are no match for a good blaster at your side, kid.
Luke Skywalker
You don't believe in the Force, do you?
Han Solo
Kid, I've flown from one side of this galaxy to the other. I've seen a lot of strange stuff, but I've never seen anything to make me believe there's one all-powerful force controlling everything. There's no mystical energy field that controls my destiny.
Ben smiles quietly.
Han Solo
It's all a lot of simple tricks and nonsense.
Obi-Wan Kenobi
I suggest you try it again, Luke.
Ben places a flight helmet with blast shield down on Luke's head which covers his eyes.
Obi-Wan Kenobi
This time, let go your conscious self and act on instinct.
Luke Skywalker
With the blast shield down, I can't even see. How am I supposed to fight?
Obi-Wan Kenobi
Your eyes can deceive you. Don't trust them.
Han skeptically shakes his head as Ben throws the seeker into the air. The ball shoots straight up in the air, then drops like a rock. Luke swings the lightsaber around blindly missing the seeker, which fires off a laserbolt which hits Luke square on the seat of the pants. He lets out a painful yell and attempts to hit the seeker.
Obi-Wan Kenobi
Stretch out with your feelings.
Luke stands in one place, seemingly frozen. The seeker makes a dive at Luke and, incredibly, he managed to deflect the bolt. The ball ceases fire and moves back to its original position.
Obi-Wan Kenobi
You see, you can do it.
Han Solo
I call it luck.
Obi-Wan Kenobi
In my experience, there's no such thing as luck.
Han Solo
Look, going good against remotes is one thing. Going good against the living? That's something else.
Solo notices a small light flashing on the far side of the control panel.
Han Solo
Looks like we're coming up on Alderaan.
Han and Chewbacca head back to the cockpit.

Summary

While in hyperspace aboard Falcon, Chewbacca played against C-3PO in a game of dejarik, Luke trained to use a lightsaber against remote droid and Solo argued with Obi-Wan about the existense of the Force. In the middle of their journey both Kenobi and Luke felt a disturbance in the Force, but even much more experienced Obi-Wan didn't understand what caused it. But upon arriving at the Alderaan's coordinates, they discovered that there was nothing to be found but an asteroid field - the planet itself had been destroyed by the Death Star's superlaser. While trying to understand what had happened, they spotted a lone TIE fighter, which appeared to be heading towards a small moon. While they moved towards the moon, chasing the fighter, Kenobi realized that it was not really a moon - it was an enormous space station. Moments later, they were pulled into a hangar bay by its powerful tractor beam.
