Summary
Within the quarters assigned her on Cloud City, Leia paces in agitation. She has changed from her cold-weather pants and jacket to a lovely dress. Her hair is down, tied back with ribbons. She moves from a large, open window and turns to see Han entering through the doorway.

Notes
Film
- Starts with Han walking into the room reporting that everything is fine; ends with Chewbacca walking into the room with various C-3PO parts in a bucket.
- The first appearance of Leia's Bespin outfit.
- Leia is wearing a color other than white for the first time in the movie.
Podcast
- Bespin Leia.
- Jeff and his brother never had the Bespin Leia action figure.
- The clothes worn by our heroes in Star Wars are way ahead of their time but way behind our time.
- Leia's Bespin outfit is a Maude Findlay type of outfit.
- Her braided hair looks fantastic - Bespin Leia is Jeff's "favorite Leia".
- People rarely cosplay as Bespin Leia; SWM listeners should do this from now on.
- Leia must have bought this outfit in Cloud City as she wasn't expecting to be there.
- or Han has closets full of women's outfits on the Falcon for ladies (or him!) to wear.
- There should have been a musical montage of Leia trying on outfits.
- This would have given them at least half a dozen more Leia action figures to sell.
- The Pixar Cars franchise is famous for doing this with their characters.
- The Twin-Pod cloud car was Jeff's favorite toy. He didn't even have one, let alone two, pilot action figures.
- Do Twin-Pod cloud car pilots actually have to be twins?
- Han is really mellow and cool in the Cloud City sequence - maybe the air is thinner up there.
- Cloud City is a perfect setting for Han.
- The white rooms on Cloud City must get really dirty.
- Why aren't there any Star Wars themed hotels?
- Owen's and Beru's house is a real place in Tunisia and is a hotel.
- What Star Wars themed hotels would the hosts stay in?
- Trash compactor - although this is more of a theme park ride.
- Detention level.
- NOT the Dagobah room.
- The Falcon - it is like the ultimate Winnebago.
- Han doesn't trust Lando either. Does he trust Luke and Leia? He definitely doesn't trust BoShek.
- Lando is Corellian - the same as Han.
- Lando dresses in Han's clothes on the Falcon. Maybe they were his clothes in the first place.
- Han is actually being Lando not the other way around.
- Han should have started wearing a cape - maybe he will in Episode 7.
- Leia is upset that Han will be leaving forever once he drops them off. Can't he just drop-off the money and fly back?
- Han is trying to get out of his relationship with Leia.
- Pete can't remember this dialogue in the move from when he was a kid.
- A make out scene between Han and Leia in this sequence was removed from the movie. Lawrence Kasdan was upset that this didn't make it into the final cut.
- Jeff didn't want anymore mushy bits in the movie.
- Chewbacca versus the ugnaughts.
- There are various droids in the background of the scene - no CZ-3 but there is an IG-88, 4-LOM and a Treadwell variant with spider arms.
- Why is there an (or THE) IG-88 in this room? Was he trying to get Han?
- The ugnaughts and this scene are both short.
- Chewbacca should have been more vicious with the ugnaughts (i.e. ripped their arms off).
- Perhaps the ugnaughts are more important in the Star Wars universe than we realised.
- The ugnaughts all wear different shirts and aprons.
- Ugnaughts go between comical and sinister characters.
- The furnace is just sound effects and orange and teal lighting. Cloud City is all lit very nicely.
- Support the Show.
Meta Minute
- 21:26 podcast episode length.
Quotes
- Pete: Hey buddy, its not the Clone-Pod cloud car - its the Twin-Pod cloud car.
- Alex: How come no-one is talking about their feelings? Except Luke.
- Pete: It was IG-Whitey-White.
- Alex: He's going to file a grievance. Pete: Did you say that he's going to file a grievous?
