William Shakespeare's The Jedi Doth Return

’Tis but the name of thy true self, which thou
Hast but forgotten. Furthermore, I know
That there is good within thee yet, for thy
Great Emperor cannot have driven it
From thee entirely. That is wherefore thou
Couldst not destroy me when we met at first,
And wherefore thou wilt not deliver me
A pris’ner to thine Emperor.

Vader

[ aside:

] —AlmostI know not what to say, so shall I turn
The conversation unto matters that
Are simple to discuss, with no confusion.
[ To Luke:] I see thou hast constructed for thyself
A lightsaber. Thy skills are now complete,
Except I see its beam is green, much like
Thine innocent opinion of my fate.
But still thou hast become quite powerful,
Just as the Emperor himself foresaw.

Luke

If green doth mark me as a man naïve,
I’ll claim the color proudly. Come with me—
My father, turn toward the good, and live!

Vader

Old Obi-Wan once thought as thou dost think.
Thou canst not understand the power of
The dark side: I shall be obedient
Unto my master—aye, I must, and will.

Luke

I shall not turn toward the dark, and thou
Shalt verily be forc’d to kill me then.

Vader

[ aside:

] Confusion, be thou gone. ’Tis madness, this![ To Luke:] If that shall be thy destiny, so be’t.

Luke

O, search thy feelings, father. Thou canst not
Do this to me. I feel the conflict rise
Within thee. Let thy hatred go, be free!

Vader

It is too late for me, my son. I shall
Deliver thee unto the Emperor.
’Tis he who shall reveal to thee the true
And pow’rful nature of the Force. He is
Thy master now, and thou shalt serve him well.

Luke

Then may I say these words with confidence:
My father who once liv’d is truly dead.

[Exeunt Luke Skywalker with stormtroopers guarding.
