Enter Luke, Han, Leia, Mara, and Wedge.
Luke returns to consciousness.
Leia. Luke. Are you all right?
Luke notices the ship is moving and the glowpanels illuminate once more.
Luke sits up.
Luke. Thank you.
Enter Qui-Gon Jinn.
Qui-Gon. [holds out a bar of chocolate] Eat this. It will help.
Luke takes the chocolate.
It's all right. It's chocolate.
Luke. What . . . what was that thing that came?
Qui-Gon. It was a Tusken, one of the guards of Kessel. It's gone now. It was searching the ship for Obi-Wan Kenobi. If you'll excuse me, I must speak with the pilot. Eat. You'll feel better.
Exit Qui-Gon.
Luke. What happened to me?
Leia. Well, that thing - the Tusken - stood there and looked around (I mean, ithink it did; I couldn't see its face), and you . . . you . . .
Han. You sort of went rigid. We thought you were having a fit or something.
Luke. And did any of you . . . you know, pass out?
Han. No. I felt weird though, like I'd never be cheerful again.
Luke. But someone was screaming, a woman.
Leia. No one was screaming, Luke.
Han. Mara was shaking like mad, though.
Wedge. It was horrible. Did you feel how cold it got when it came in?
Mara sobs; Leia puts a comforting arm around her.
Enter Qui-Gon.
Qui-Gon. [with a smile] I haven't poisoned that chocolate, you know.
Luke eats the chocolate, which spreads warmth throughout his being.
We'll be at the Jedi Temple in ten minutes. Are you all right, Luke?
Luke. Fine.
After ten minutes of silence, they arrive at the Jedi Temple.
Luke, Han, Leia, Mara, Qui-Gon, and Wedge make way for the carriages, with other older students.
Enter Chewbacca.
Chewbacca. First years this way.
A group of first years, including Salla Zend and Liam, follow Chewbacca.
[to Luke, Han, and Leia] All right, you three?
Luke, Han, and Leia wave at Chewbacca.
Luke, Han, and Leia board a carriage pulled by invisible voxyn.
Exit Wedge, Qui-Gon, and Mara, in their own separate carriages.
The carriages move, passing by two Tusken guards.
The carriages stop at the Temple.
Luke, Han, and Leia get out of the carriages.
Enter Galen Marek, Cornelius Evazan, and Ponda Baba.
Marek. Skywalker. Is it true you fainted? Is Antilles telling the truth? You actually fainted?
Han. Shove off, Marek.
Marek. Did you faint too, Solo? Did the scary old Tusken you, too, Solo?
Enter Qui-Gon.
Qui-Gon. Is there a problem?
Marek. [glares at Qui-Gon] Oh, no . . . er . . . Master.
Marek smirks at Evazan and Baba.
Exit Marek, Evazan, and Baba.
Exit Qui-Gon.
Luke, Han, and Leia enter the Jedi Temple.
Enter Mon Mothma.
Mothma. Skywalker. Organa. I want to see you both. [sees Luke's expression] There's no need to look so worried. I just want a word in my quarters. [to Han] Move along there, Solo.
Exit Han.
Luke, Leia, and Mothma enter Mon Mothma's quarters.
Master Jinn sent a droid to say that you were taken ill on the ship, Skywalker.
Enter Vokara Che.
Luke. I'm fine. I don't need anything.
Che. Oh, it's you, is it? I suppose you've been doing something dangerous again?
Mothma. It was a Tusken, Vokara.
Mothma and Che exchange looks.
Che examines Luke.
Che. Setting Tuskens around a learning institution. He won't be the last one who collapses. Yes. He's all clammy. Terrible things, they are, and the effect they have on beings who are already delicate.
Luke. I'm not delicate.
Che. [checks pulse] Of course you're not.
Mothma. What does he need? Bed rest? Should he perhaps spend tonight in the medcenter?
Luke. [jumps up] I'm fine.
Che. Well, he should have some chocolate, at the very least.
Luke. I've already had some. Master Jinn gave me some. He gave it to all of us.
Che. Did he now? So we've finally got a Defense Against the Dark Side instructor who knows his remedies?
Mothma. Are you sure you feel all right, Skywalker?
Luke. Yes.
Mothma. Very well. Kindly wait outside while I have a quick word with Miss Organa about her course timetable. Then we can go down to the feast together.
Exit all.
