Trust in a farm kid, fresh off a backward desert world, to lead him in an attack on the first Death Star.

And now, trust in a smuggler who might just as easily betray him for the right price.""

(P-Body knocks Atlas into an inincerator) BAM! Robots gave us six extra seconds of trust. Good job, robots""
