Saga Yoda was right?

When Luke wants to leave Dagobah and help Han and Leia on Bespin Yoda warns him of.the cost of.that decision. If he didn't go then Han would be taken to Jabba, possibly not in carbonite causing Jabba to kill him since he doesn't have his trophy. Hence no Kylo, who has caused much suffering. Just a retro twist that could be made to fit continuity.

 

Han was going to be frozen regardless of Luke leaving, because Vader wanted a test subject for Luke. Jabba only chose to leave Han frozen because he found it to be more of a fitting punishment than feeding him to either the Rancor or the Sarlacc.

 

I agree with anakinfansince1983... Cant blame Yoda for his distrust in Luke after what his father did

 

It's not so much what Anakin did, but that in general, training someone so late and with strong attachments is a difficult position to take. Yoda knows that they need Luke, but his years of training Jedi the old way are still at the forefront of his mind.

 

Yoda was right in that Luke going did not do Han or Leia any good. Han still got frozen. Leia and Chewy would have escaped the same with or without Luke's intervention.

 

In the end, the difference it made was that Vader cut off Luke's hand and told him the truth. This saved them both in the long run, since the truth made Luke want to save his father from the dark side and his prosthetic hand helped him see the danger he was in before it was too late.

 

I'm not so sure Leia and Chewy would have escaped if Luke hadn't been there. They would almost surely have had to deal with Vader if Luke hadn't been keeping him busy. That would have reduced their odds of a successful escape by a lot.

The whole "Luke accomplished nothing by going to Bespin" idea never clicked for me.

 

Vader had told Lando that he was going to leave them there and only changed his mind when Luke showed up. Odds are that Vader would have kept up his end of the bargain and let them go, if Luke hadn't showed up.

 

^ No way. They were Vader's best bait for luring Luke into another trap and his best information source for figuring where Luke might be hiding. He'd alter the bargain however he needed to until he got Luke where he wanted him.

 

So correct me if I am wrong, but are you saying the deal would have gotten worse all the time?

 

Except if Luke doesn't come for his friends, then Vader would believe that Luke didn't have an attachment to them. That's the only reason he did all that.

 

They're still his best lead to get to Luke, and they're known leaders of the rebel alliance. Vader will not let them go free. Either prison or execution is possible, but they're not walking away from Vader.

 

I agree with Sarge. There's no way that Vader is letting Leia go a second time, nor the guy that shot him down. Plus, the fact that they're two high ranking Rebellion leaders is more than enough reason to ensure their capture. Could you imagine what Imperial High Command, or even Palpatine, would say if they learned Vader had just let Leia Organa and Han Solo just fly away?
