What did you like better? Jedi or the Empire strikes back?

Empire.

Blasphemy.

Empire had the better ending. I mean, Luke gets his hand cut off, finds out Vader's his father.

A hand gets frozen and take away by Boba Fett. It ends on such a down note. I mean, that's what life is.

A series of down endings. All Jedi had was a bunch of Muppets. There was something else going on in Jedi. Never noticed it till today. They built another Dead Star, right? Yeah. Now, the first one was completed and fully operational before the rebels destroyed it. Luke blew it up. Give credit with credits down. And the second one was still being built when they blew it up. Compliments Alando Calrissi. Something just never sat right with me that second time around. I could never put my finger on it, but something just wasn't right. And you figured it out. The first Death Star was manned by the Imperial Army. The only people on board were the Stormtroopers, dignitaries, Imperials. Basically. So when they blew it up, no problem. Evil's punished. The second time around? The second time around, it wasn't even done being built yet. It was still under construction. So? So a construction job of that magnitude would require a hell of a lot more manpower than the Imperial Army had to offer. I bet they brought independent contractors in on that thing. Plumbers, aluminum siders, roofers.

Not just impureas. Is that where you're getting in? Exactly. In order to get it built quickly and quietly, they'd hire anybody that can do the job. I think the average stormtrooper knows how to install a toilet main? All as they know is killing in white uniforms. All right, so they bring in independent contractors. Why are you so upset at its destruction? All those innocent contractors brought in to do the job were killed.

Casualties of a war, they had nothing to do with. Alright, look, you're a roofer. Some juicy government contract comes your way. You got a wife and kids, the two-story in suburbia. This is a government contract, which means all sorts of benefits. Along come these left-wing militants have blast everything within a three-mile radius with their lasers you

didn't ask for that you have no personal politics you're just trying to scrape out a

living excuse me i don't mean to interrupt but what are you talking about the ending of

return of the Jedi my friend here is trying to convince me that any independent

contractors who were working on the uncompleted debt star were innocent victims when they was destroyed by the rebels. Well,

I'm a contractor myself. I'm a roofer, done and ready home improvements. And speaking

as a roofer, I can tell you, Rufus' personal politics comes into play heavily when choosing

jobs. Like one. Three weeks ago, I was offered a job up in the hills, beautiful house. Tons of property. A simple re-shingling job. They told me if I could finish it in one day, I would double my price. Then I realized whose house it was. Whose house was it? Dominic Bambino's. Babyface Bambino? The gangster? The same. The money was right, but the risk was too high.

I knew who he was, and based on that, I turned the job over to a friend of mine.

Based on personal politics.

Right, and the next week, the Ferreci family put a hit on Babyface's house.

My friend was shot and killed, didn't even finish re-shingling.

No way.

I'm alive because I knew the risk involved in that particular client would do.

My friend wasn't so lucky.
