[R2-D2 abruptly begins playing Leia's holographic message at Ben Kenobi's house]

Luke Skywalker:
I saw part of the message he was...

Ben Kenobi:
I seem to have found it.

Princess Leia Organa:
[in a hologram message] General Kenobi. Years ago, you served my father in the Clone Wars. Now he begs you to help him in his struggle against the Empire. I regret that I am unable to present my father's request to you in person, but my ship has fallen under attack and I'm afraid my mission to bring you to Alderaan has failed. I have placed information vital to the survival of the Rebellion into the memory systems of this R2 unit. My father will know how to retrieve it. You must see this droid safely delivered to him on Alderaan. This is our most desperate hour. Help me, Obi-Wan Kenobi. You're my only hope. [looks to the side quickly, then crouches to end the message]

Kenobi:
[to Luke] You must learn the ways of the Force if you're to come with me to Alderaan.

Skywalker:
Alderaan? I'm not going to Alderaan. I've got to go home. It's late, I'm in for it as it is.

Kenobi:
I need your help, Luke. She needs your help. I'm getting too old for this sort of thing.

Skywalker:
Listen, I can't get involved! I've got work to do! It's not that I like the Empire, I hate it, but there's nothing I can do about it right now. It's such a long way from here.

Kenobi:
That's your uncle talking.

Skywalker:
Oh, boy, my uncle. How am I ever gonna explain this?

Kenobi:
[pleading] Learn about the Force, Luke.

Skywalker:
Look, I can take you as far as Anchorhead. You can get a transport there to Mos Eisley or wherever you're going.

Kenobi:
[resigned] You must do what you feel is right, of course.
