TLWtlw wants to read about the Star Wars marathon mentioned in chapter 20. If you've never seen Star Wars and you want to then please don't read this chapter.

You don't have to have seen the Star Wars movies to read this chapter; but, the jokes will make more sense if you have.

I don't own Bones or Star Wars.

Ooooooooooooooooooo

Hodgins and Booth agreed that the best way to watch the Star Wars marathon would be to watch them in the order that they were filmed. That's how they saw them and that's what they were used to. Brennan, being more orderly didn't understand why they wouldn't want to start with Star War I; but, Hodgins had been adamant that starting with Start Wars IV made more sense. Sighing, Brennan agreed to the plan.

Ooooooooooooooooooooo

Pointing at the screen, Brennan asked, "Why are those little people dressed in dark robes in a desert? That doesn't seem very practical to me."

Smiling, Booth explained, "Those little guys are Jawas. They collect stuff and sell to the farmers and whoever. Their aliens; so, I guess the heat doesn't bother them."

Nodding her head, Brennan placed some popcorn in to her mouth.

"Why did those people with the pointy things stuck in their head attack Luke?"

Staring at the screen, Booth said, "Those are sand people. They don't like anyone."

Shaking his head, Hodgins corrected, "Dude, those are Tusken Raiders. You have to use the right title for them or the movie doesn't any make sense."

Turning to Brennan, Hodgins continued, "Booth's right, they hate everyone."

Nodding her head, Brennan sipped some of her beer.

"That didn't make any sense. A parsec is a measurement of distance. It is about 3.6 light years. It doesn't denote a length of time."

Shrugging his shoulders, Booth replied, "Yeah, I think the writers screwed up that line."

Shaking his head, Hodgins protested, "Oh no. The Kessel Run is around a black hole. Since Han had to run close to the black hole and then break free it made his trip shorter. See that's why he said parsecs instead of a length of time."

Feeling Booth staring at him, Hodgins said, "It's true. Look it up."

"Are Luke and Leia going to be romantically involved in this movie?"

Scrunching his face, Booth said, "God no. I can't tell you why because it would fu. . .uh . . screw up the movie for you; but, no, they . . .no they aren't."

"Why did that man grab at his throat? Did the man in the black mask do something magical to him? You do know that magic isn't real?"

Sighing, Booth answered, "Darth Vadar has mind tricks that he can use like make your throat close so you can't get any air. He's a Dark Lord and he's evil so his mental powers are evil. He's the bad guy, Bones. You'll see. It's not magic. It's called the Force. He can manipulate the force with his mind."

Sipping some more beer, Brennan shot Booth a puzzled look and then turned her attention back to the screen.

"Why don't we understand what the tall hairy being is saying. All of the other aliens speak English, which by the way is ridiculous. Why would all of these aliens seem to speak English?"

Taking a stab at it, Hodgins answered, "That's Chewbacca. He's a Wookiee. He understands English he just can't speak it because his vocal chords aren't flexible enough. Han understands Wookiee so they understand what each other are saying." Laughing, Hodgins patted Brennan's knee and said, "Kind of like you and Booth."

"Why did the old man just stand there and let the Darth Vader cut him down and why did his body melt? I wouldn't think his body would just melt like that."

Sipping his beer, Booth explained, "Obi-Wan was sacrificing himself so everyone else had time to escape. He didn't melt. He's not the Wicked Witch of the West. His body just evaporated and joined the Force."

Glancing at Booth, Brennan muttered, "There seems to be a lot of religion in this movie."

"Why would you build a starship the size of a moon and then allow a design flaw to exist that would allow someone to shoot into it allowing it to be destroyed. That's very poor engineering."

Shrugging his shoulders, Hodgins said, "What do expect from giving the lowest bidder the contract to build the Death Star? Governments should never take the lowest bidder. It's stupid. They should take the middle bid and then put in the contract a"

Feeling a heavy hand clamp on his left shoulder, Hodgins saw Booth glaring at him.

"Now they're on an ice planet?"

Popping a nacho into his mouth, Hodgins chewed quickly and said, "Yeah, well this movie takes place three years after the first one and they're on a different planet."

"So, Luke is on a jungle planet? Who is that little alien?"

Pointing at the screen, Booth said, "That's Yoda. He's a Jedi Master. He's going to train Luke how to use the Force."

"More religion?"

Shrugging his shoulders, Booth said, "Just watch."

"Are Han and Leia going to be a romantic couple?"

Smiling, Booth leaned against Brennan and replied, "Do you really want me to tell you or do you want to wait and see if it happens in the movie?"

Shrugging her shoulders, Brennan said, "So the answer is yes."

"How can a giant worm live in a vacuum on an asteroid? What does it eat? I mean, it can't just wait until space ships come by and eat those. All a government organization would have to do is put up a warning beacon that says Don't enter or the giant worm will eat you."

Scratching his head, Booth said, "Fu . . I mean, Hell, Bones. I don't know. It's just a movie."

Shrugging his shoulders, Hodgins said, "Don't ask me. I always wondered about that one myself."

"If he won't listen to his Jedi Master then Luke isn't a very good student. He'll never master his religion that way."

Silence reigned in the room.

Looking at Hodgins, "This is the Lando Calrissian that you admired? He seems to be running a criminal organization."

"Wouldn't freezing Han in this carbonite kill him? I don't see how it wouldn't?"

Sipping his beer, Booth said, "It's just a movie."

"It seems ridiculous to me to wait until one of the characters is going to die or may die to then say that you love them. They should have just said so in the beginning. They've wasted so much time and now they aren't together. What a waste."

Staring at Brennan and then Booth, Hodgins laughed, "Yeah, I don't think I've ever seen a couple that love each other refuse to admit to each other that they love each other."

Seeing Booth glare at him, Hodgins explained, "What? It's funny."

"Darth Vadar is Luke's father? Oh . . . I didn't see that coming. It would be terrible to have such an evil man as a father."

Looking down at his fingers, Booth muttered, "Yeah, probably."

"It's very interesting that Luke now has a robotic hand. Can he use the force with his robot hand?"

Rolling his eyes, Booth remarked, "Yeah, why not?"

"That costume on Leia is very revealing."

Silence reigned supreme, well except for a little throat clearing.

"I feel sorry for that man. Luke killed his big pet although I understand that the big pet was trying to kill him still I feel sorry for his owner."

Looking at Brennan, Booth opened his mouth and then shut it.

"That creature in the sand is like the asteroid worm. All you would have to do is put a sign near it saying this hole contains a creature that will eat you, go the other way. I don't see how such a creature could evolve."

Popping a top on a Coke, Hodgins said, "Yeah, me neither."

Exasperated, Booth explained, "It's a just a fu . . . uh . .movie."

"So there is another Skywalker? That's interesting. Have we met that person yet?"

Smiling, Booth leaned back onto the couch and replied, "Yep, we sure have."

"Oh, Leia is his sister. . . . Oh, that's why you got so flustered when I asked if Luke and Leia were going to be a romantic couple. In ancient Egypt, the Pharaoh often married his sister because Gods could only marry Gods."

Appalled, Booth retorted, "Perverts."

"Why are those little furry creatures taking everyone in to the trees? Are they evil? They are very cute; but, I suppose you can't judge how evil people are by just looking at them."

Shaking his head, Hodgins protested, "Oh, no. They aren't evil. They just don't know that Han and everyone are the good guys. You'll see it'll work out."

"They think CP3O is a God? You see, that is why religion makes no sense to me, clearly he isn't a God and yet they think he is."

The only sound to be heard came from the television.

"I'm glad that Luke told Leia that he is her brother. Since they are siblings at least they have each other even If they don't have a father that they can trust."

Pausing, Booth thought better of it and didn't say anything.

"Why would Luke just give up and turn himself in to the Darth Vadar? He was safer on the planet with the little hairy aliens."

Shrugging his shoulders, Hodgins explained, "Not the Darth Vadar. It's Darth Vadar and Luke knows that his father can feel him through the force and he doesn't want his friends to be in danger so he wants to talk his father into coming over to the good side of the Force."

Sighing, Brennan sipped her Sprite and said, "More religion. Evil is evil and you usually can 't make evil change through religion or for familial reasons either."

Closing his eyes, Booth said, "It's a movie."

"Why would the Emperor be on the space ship? It seems stupid to endanger your life like that. He should be at his capitol ruling from there."

Closing his eyes, Hodgins explained, "It's a movie."

"See I told you it was stupid to be in the ship. Now his Darth Vadar has killed him because he tried to kill Luke. That was very stupid. He should have killed Darth Vadar and then Luke."

Sleepily, Brennan leaned back against the couch between her two sleeping companions and said, "I'm glad that Han and Leia admitted that they love each other and want to be with each other. If two people are attracted to each other then they should just say so. It's a shame it took three movies to be produced before they could admit it to each other."

Oooooooooooooooooooooooo
