Also not changing Luke's last name was a weird choice by his adoptive parents |

Jorge wrote: How does she know the boy is called Luke Skywalker It is not shown in the series, so we don’t know if she does or not. But that’s his name, and she is an authority from the empire. She is shown asking a water dealer about them. Her job was to investigate, to look for force users. Although in episode 5, she goes against that and almost dies from fighting Vader. I think it would be unlikely that she would just continue her job in episode six. |

Lads. She somehow knew Luke was Vaders son having never met him but *didnt* know Leia was his daughter and Leia fought back her force mind probe thing while she had her in custody and read her strength and could have killed her as a force capable kid? You’re all talking absolute bollox I’m afraid to say |

What SW canon (mostly the the movies) was like after ROTJ was released is a lot more important than what Lucas has in mind in 1976/77. These changes happen all the time, with a lot of authors/directors. |

But I don't have the quote in front of me. |

Now everything is a mess with all this SW “lore” I think a lot of people feel that it worked because they were kids when they saw it and accepted it. It's what they grew up with. My Dad told me all the time about how the Empire reveal messed up the original. And then it was cringey even they doubled down with "a certain point of view" in Jedi. Oh and there's Leia now too!!!! This stuff has always been fluid and wonky. The current stuff works just as well as the old stuff, for me. If anything the problem is that there's so much new stuff. So we keep having to think about it and recycle this conversation. |

Just doesn’t make sense that she would just carry on with her old job for no special reason, and just murder a child on her own without reporting it at all. She also got there healthy and faster than Obi-Wan, after nearly being killed in the previous episode. Something odd about it. Him being a Skywalker at least gives her added reason. |
