EXTERIOR: TATOOINE — ROCK CANYON — FLOOR — DAY.
OBI-WAN: Hello there! Come here my little friend. Don’t be afraid.
R2D2: …
Alec: I believe it’s your line.
George: Cut! Alec, we’ll dub the droid sounds in later. Just react as though he’s talking to you.
Alec: Oh, you can’t fool me. There’s a midget in there. I saw him earlier. Aren’t you, midget?
Kenny: What?! You bloody wanker!
Alec: See?
George: Alec, listen. The word “midget” is absolutely inappropriate. Besides that, Kenny doesn’t actually speak in the film. He’s just in there to move the droid. We’ll dub in the sounds in post production.
Alec: Can’t the midget beep and whistle?
Kenny: Oh, come on!
George: Alec, please. His name is Kenny. Can you just call him Kenny?
Alec: I suppose.
George: Sorry, Kenny. Places everyone! Let’s try this again. Action!
OBI-WAN: Hello there! Come here my little friend. Don’t be afraid.
R2D2: …
OBI-WAN: Don’t worry, he’ll be all right.
LUKE: What happened?
Alec: Well, apparently *Kenny* is unable to make some simple robot noises…
George: Cut!
Alec: …so I’m just pretending that he did. Although, I don’t quite understand why one robot gets to talk but not the other.
George: Alec, can you just follow your lines and not worry about the robot?
Alec: Sorry. The boy was confused.
Mark: What?!
George: No, his line is “What happened?” and you’re supposed to say “Rest easy son…”
Alec: But I had to tell him about the midget!
Kenny: You pompous arsehole!
Alec: Hear that? There’s a midget in there. I saw him.
Kenny: You sodding cunt!
Alec: He’s a cheeky little bugger, isn’t he?!
George: Sorry, Kenny. Listen, Alec. Please stop using that word.
Alec: What? “Little”?
George: No, that’s actually in the script. I’m talking about “midget”.
Alec: It really sets him off, doesn’t it?
George: Yes, because it’s offensive. Please just call him Kenny.
Alec: Agreed. He doesn’t seem to respond professionally otherwise.
Kenny: You absolute tit!
George: Places, everyone! Let’s try this again! Alec, please just stick to the script.
Alec: Of course.
George: Action!
OBI-WAN: Hello there! Come here my midget friend…
Kenny: YOU! FUCKING! BASTARD!
George: Cut!
