@TrevvorRiley Picking up power converters isn't "wasting time with friends", it's another chore. But if Luke can use it as an excuse to go to Toshi Station on his own, then he can sneak in some time goofing around with friends and later claim the chore just took a long time. Owen is wise to this scam, naturally.
Of course, Robot Chicken offers a different theory: Toshi Station is a strip club and "The Power Converters" are a group of dancers there, whom Luke wants to "pick up"
I hate you Uncle Owen!! I wish you were dead!.... He probably wanted to go because he scored some glitterstim spice from the Jawas and he wanted to go get high with his friends..
This is ineluctably true, and I regret not having come to this conclusion on my own before now. That said, can you speculate on (or explain) what "power converters" are code for? Poppers? Devices/people that can, per the worst fears of Christian fundamentalists, convert/recruit impressionable children to the "Dark Side of the Force," as it were? Any help with this question would be much appreciated.
That made me laugh so hard, LOL I originally thought of Power converters to be some device for star wars spacecrfat. Even so, I think Power converters were both the strippers and the device.
He does. Try and find one of the deleted scenes of A New Hope. It actually shows him going to Tosche Station earlier. (around the time Tantive IV was being attacked) He had some friends there.
@Computerbugs Yeah, the Biggs scenes got left on the cutting room floor. Except for the end when he gets killed, and then nobody knows why Luke looks so sad.
does power converters mean "hookers" on that planet
