It’s Genetic

Leia: [opening the door to let Luke in] Luke! Happy Life Day – oh. You brought him, huh. [Anakin’s Force Ghost peers out nervously from behind Luke, waving weakly]  Luke: Leia, he’s our dad. I know you guys haven’t always had the best relationship but –  Leia: He killed my parents. He tried to kill me. And my husband. Oh, and you, by the way, in case you’ve forgotten. That’s a little worse than missing a few of my softball games. Luke: That’s fair, but…he eventually saved the universe! And he saved me! You like me, right?  Leia: [unimpressed] I guess.  Luke: And I…I like dad. He’s been helping me become a better Jedi…and look how great my hair looks these days!  Leia: [rolling her eyes] Yeah…your hair does look pretty good. Luke: See? So let’s just…all sit down together and maybe get to know each other a little more. [puppy dog eyes] It is Life Day, after all.  Han: Leia, just let them come in already…you don’t want to listen to Luke complain for the rest of the night. Leia: [annoyed] All right, come in. [to Anakin] You sit…over there. Please try not to murder anyone.  Anakin: [nodding] Of course, I won’t be any trouble, I’m just…happy to be here with my family.  Luke: Great! Oh, and of course we can’t forget… [opening the door again and motioning to someone to come in]  Leia: Oh no, I’m not hosting any more of your guests, Luke, thanks. [she starts to close the door on Obi-Wan’s Force Ghost] Uh. H-hi. [to Luke] Who is this? Luke: [whispering] That’s Ben Kenobi!  Leia: [eyes widening] This is Obi-Wan Kenobi?  Luke: [nodding] Yes?  Leia: [swallowing hard, smoothing out her dress and smiling] Hello, General Kenobi. It’s – it’s my pleasure to host you here in my home.  Han: [furrowing his brow]  Obi-Wan: Oh, the pleasure is entirely mine, your highness. [he kisses her hand] I was so very fond of the Organas, you know. It’s lovely to see you.  Leia: [blushing furiously and giggling] Oh well…you know…I heard so many wonderful stories about you growing up, just w-wonderful, and I’d always wished we could meet, and I could hear stories about you and my father from back in the day…please, come in, sit down.  Anakin: Uh, yes, Obi-Wan, why don’t you come sit down next to me? You know, Obi-Wan spent more time with me than with anyone else during the Clone Wars.  Leia: [pointedly] Yes, but that didn’t end so well for him, did it? [turning back to Obi-Wan with open adoration, clasping his hands] General Kenobi, by all means, take this seat over here by me and tell me everything. I’m sure you must have so many amazing stories to share.  Anakin: [annoyed] Obi-Wan, are you sure you wouldn’t rather sit over here? By me? We could tell everyone about that time we rescued those refugees – Luke: [miffed, patting the seat next to him] Uh, actually Ben, I was hoping you might sit over here and tell some stories about me when I was a little boy on Tatooine. [to Anakin and Leia] You know, he devoted his life to protecting me.  Anakin: [pouring himself more wine, increasingly agitated] He almost left the Jedi Order in order to take care of me, you know. He would have left it. The thing he cared about most of all. He’d have left it. For me. Leia: [curtly] Without the involvement of him and my father, Bail Organa, none of us would be here right now. And also this is my house, and so I get to set the seating chart. [smugly] General Kenobi sits by me.  Obi-Wan: [flustered by all this attention] Really now, everyone, perhaps if I –   Luke: [whining] But he was my mentor! Anakin: [standing up] He was mine first!  Luke: [throwing down a napkin] Well I never betrayed him!  Leia: [grabbing Obi-Wan’s arm] I never even got to spend any time with him thanks to you two idiots! It’s my turn!  4-Year Old Ben Solo: [walking in in his Life Day pajamas, making a beeline for Obi-Wan and clinging to his leg] Mine!  Han: [slowly pounding his head into the dining table]  Chewbacca: [gently pats Han’s back and pours him another drink]
