Luke heads for Dagobah in his [[X-wing fighter]] and Han, Leia, R2, C3-PO, and Lando Calrissian join the Rebel fleet in the ''[[Millennium Falcon]]''. Yoda, on Dagobah, tells Luke that it is true: Vader is his father and that to truly become a [[Jedi]] he must face him. Yoda, 900 years old, dies shortly afterward and Luke joins the Rebels, who have discovered that the Empire is constructing the Death Star above the forest moon of Endor. On Endor is a shield generator which protects the Death Star until its weapons systems are operational. Han is assigned to lead the assault team on Endor, and Lando Calrissian leads the Rebel fighters<dash> Han lends him the ''Millennium Falcon'' for this purpose.

Using a captured Imperial shuttle, Han Solo, Chewbacca, Leia, and Luke, with a strike team of Rebels go to Endor with the intent to destroy the shield generator. Unbeknownst to them, the Emperor has set a huge number of Stormtroopers in ambush around the generator. The strike team meets up with some native tribes called "Ewoks" which are friendly and promise to aid them in attack. That night, Luke reveals to Leia that she is his sister and that he must confront Vader to turn him back to good. He turns himself in to Vader, but the Sith Lord tells him that "it is too late for me" and brings him up to the Death Star to the Emperor. The Emperor attempts to enrage Luke and turn him to evil, but Luke resists.
