I think she'll end up dying right there. That sense that Obi-wan got will be enough to scare him to go back to Tatooine and stay there for the remainder of his days protecting Luke. Not sure if Reva ever died or told anyone.

Didn’t think of that.
Obi wan senses something serious aka he’s fucked up leaving that communicator
Then says he’s sure it will be fine.
So he knows she’s died?

Wait, what? He’s supposed to have a British accent? I’ve never heard that ever. Just a “distinguished” American one.

All the imperials have British accents. Palpatine had a thing for British accents. Anakins voice modulator was programmed with a British accent when they put him the Vader suit in the revenge of the sith.

I had a chuckle when Auggie Ben Doggie listened to his hologram voicemail about the most important secret in the galaxy in a room WITH NO DOOR.

Not the Imperials. Of course they, and Leia, had British accents. I’m talking about Vader. Not once have I heard him and thought “wow, Vader’s a Brit!”dimejinky99 wrote:What did you think they’re accents were? For real.wease wrote:Wait, what? He’s supposed to have a British accent?
