'''Timeframe:''' Before ''Film/TheEmpireStrikesBack''

Leia and R2-D2 must free Chewie from the clutches of a ferocious wampa.
-----

* BadassInDistress: Chewie is captured by a wampa.
* DugTooDeep: Chewie was digging corridors and broke into a wampa cave.
* HollywoodDarkness: The cave is fairly visble but meant to be pitch black, with the lights from Leia's lantern and R2's search light showing what the characters can see.
* JustInTime: The door finally powers up and closes barely a second before the wampa gets through.
* MythologyGag: An excised subplot from ''Empire'' featured a wampa that had gotten loose in Echo Base, and which the rebels had managed to trap behind a sealed door with a warning sign on it. A famous deleted scene had C-3PO [[BewareTheSillyOnes deliberately removing]] the warning sign from the door, so that when the Snowtroopers invaded one of them was [[BlackComedy grabbed and eaten by the wampa]] as soon as he opened the door.
* OhCrap: 3P0 calls Leia's wrist comm at the exact wrong time, waking the wampa.
* WeNeedADistraction: Leia offers to distract the wampa while Chewie and R2 repair the door.
