    • Darth Vader's shuttle disembarks from a Star Destroyer and heads toward the second Death Star, which is under construction high over the moon of Endor.
    • Commander Jerjerrod greets Darth Vader on the second Death Star. Vader announces that he is there to oversee the superweapon's construction, which has fallen behind schedule. He adds that the Emperor himself will soon be arriving, someone certain to be less forgiving of excuses for delays.
    • On Tatooine, C-3PO and R2-D2 approach Jabba's Palace where the Hutt gangster holds the frozen Han Solo captive.
    • R2-D2 and C-3PO request an audience with Jabba, pleading on behalf of Luke Skywalker for Han Solo's release. Jabba laughs off the request, suggesting he wouldn't want to give up his favorite decoration -- the frozen body of Han Solo displayed on the wall of his palace. Jabba further decrees that the two droids will now serve him.
    • A bounty hunter named Boushh enters Jabba's throne room with a captive Chewbacca. The hunter wants double the reward for the Rebel Wookiee, and holds an armed thermal detonator to show he's serious. Jabba respects the bounty hunter's nerve, and agrees to pay the requested amount. Chewbacca is taken below to a prison cell.
    • Later that night, Boushh enters the throne room and frees Solo from the carbonite. He is conscious, but temporarily blind. The bounty hunter removes "his" mask revealing the face of Princess Leia, who tells Han they must quickly make their escape.
    • Expecting the escape attempt, Jabba's henchmen -- including Lando Calrissian in disguise -- surround Leia and Han. Han is taken to a prison cell below where his is reunited with Chewbacca. Jabba has different plans for Princess Leia.
    • Leia is clad in a revealing gold costume -- a trophy in Jabba's court -- when Luke Skywalker appears before the great Hutt. He demands the release of Han, Leia and the others, suggesting that Jabba not underestimate his Jedi powers. Jabba dismisses the threats with a laugh and sends Luke plummeting through a trap door into the rancor's den below.
    • The rancor -- an enormous beast with flesh-tearing claws and teeth -- moves to eat the young Jedi, who successfully wedges a large bone into the creature's jaw. Luke throws a skull of an earlier victim at a switch which drops a heavy armored door on top of the rancor, killing him. Furious, Jabba orders Luke pulled from the den and put aboard his sail barge, along with Han Solo and Chewbacca.
    • In the Tatooine desert, Luke, Han and Chewbacca await their fate -- a slow death in the stomach of the Sarlacc, a great desert beast with a gaping maw in the sand. Fortunately for them, Luke had planted his lightsaber in Artoo, who launches it to the Jedi on cue.
    • As Luke and the others wage battle above the Sarlacc pit, Leia -- aboard Jabba's nearby sail barge -- wraps the chain that binds her around the mighty Hutt's throat and strangles him to death.
    • Their captors vanquished, the Rebels race from Jabba's exploding sail barge on a skiff.
