Summary

We’ve asked what’s the plan, Alderaan but this week we’re going even deeper and asking WHAT’S UP WITH YOU, R2-D2? Our favorite little astromech droid had a secret mission from Princess Leia but just what else was going on? On close examination of other Star Wars stories, this mission may have been much more personal for the droid! And what if the Jawas never captured him? And what’s he saying in Obi-Wan’s hut?
