Jedi child: "Master, because someone erased it from the archive memory."
Obi-Wan: "But how can that be?"
Jedi child: "It says right here. 'The Jedi Archive FactWiki: The Free Encyclopedia that any Force-sensitive can edit.'"

Seth Green (+4)

Interviewer: "How did it come about that you'd be voicing a little droid named Todo in the new season of The Clone Wars?"
Green: "I think I just asked often enough and then they were like, yeah, let's do this."
Interviewer: "Did you like the way he looked? He's been described as adorkable."
Green: "Really? Sweet. I don't know, I don't have a lot of romantic feelings towards droids."

Bonnie Burton (+4)

Bonnie: "It's not really a moment that I hate. It's a moment that cracks me up every time I see it. And it's when you watch the special edition at the very end and, you know, it's all the ghosts lined up. So it's like, it's – Luke's watching, you know, Yoda next to old Ben Kenobi, right? And then you think you're gonna see old, you know, dad, Anakin."
Interviewer: "Sebastian Shaw, yeah."
Bonnie: "Right? But instead, you see Hayden Christiansen. And I just keep wondering if – what was, what was going through Luke's brain, where he's like, 'OK, I know that guy. I know that guy. Who the hell is that kid?'"

C-3PO in Christmas in the Stars (+1)

"And I thought, can it be that S. Claus is alive?
Why, the odds against that are ten billion to five
So who was this creature coming so near?
What should I do? Was he someone to fear?
But a wink of his eye and a turn of his head
Soon helped me to know I had nothing to dread.
"

Narrative text

Luke Skywalker and the Shadows of Mindor (+1)

"Lando Calrissian walked down the ramp of his personal command shuttle looking every inch the general he was, from the millimetrically level brim of his gleaming cap to the subtly iridescent uppers of his similarly gleaming boots. The elegantly close-fitting jumpsuit he wore was also subtly iridescent, so that its powder-blue sheen could pick up complementary highlights from whatever environment he might find himself in—because a gentleman and an officer must never, ever clash—and it fit as if it had been designed for him, which, of course, it had. He'd designed it himself. Thrown over one shoulder he carried his custom belt-length uniform jacket—jet black, naturally, because black goes with everything—which he'd commissioned after being reliably informed that Ackbar and Republic Command would absolutely draw the line at an opera cape."
―The initial description of Lando Calrissian in Luke Skywalker and the Shadows of Mindor[src]
