Asterios ROTJ memories
 He caught onto Star Wars later in life, which is surprising considering how into Star Trek he is. He first saw ROTJ as a remastered VHS before the Special Editions.
 Asterios doesn't care for the Jabba's sail barge massacre, unlike most other guests.
 Luke being more at risk of turning to the Dark side. Parallel to Anakin murdering the Tusken Raiders in Episode II.

  • Alex: "Jediewok".
