INT. MILLENNIUM FALCON - COCKPIT

The tension mounts as the pirateship gains on the tiny
fighter. In the distance, one of the stars becomes brighter
until it is obvious that the TIE ship is heading for it. Ben
stands behind Chewbacca.

BEN
A fighter that size couldn't get
this deep into space on its own.

LUKE
It must have gotten lost, been part
of a convoy or something.

HAN
Well, he ain't going to be around
long enough to tell anyone about us.

EXT. SPACE

The TIE fighter is losing ground to the larger pirateship as
they race toward camera and disappear over head.

INT. MILLENNIUM FALCON - COCKPIT

The distant star can be distinguished as a small moon or
planet.

LUKE
Look at him. He's headed for that
small moon.

HAN
I think I can get him before he gets
there... he's almost in range.

The small moon begins to take on the appearance of a monstrous
spherical battle station.

BEN
That's no moon! It's a space station.

HAN
It's too big to be a space station.

LUKE
I have a very bad feeling about this.

HAN
Yeah, I think your right. Full
reverse! Chewie, lock in the auxiliary
power.

The pirateship shudders and the TIE fighter accelerates away
toward the gargantuan battle station.

LUKE
Why are we still moving towards it?

HAN
We're caught in a tractor beam! It's
pulling us in!
