  • The Warrior Princess: "You've saved your world. When you're ready, come back and save the rest of us."
  • Mandatory Retirement: Rogue Squadron goes through a daring mission to rescue a high-ranking Imperial defector. One of the pilots, a nonhuman who'd been in the squadron for a long time, dies during this. The defector, who's been an enemy for a long time, complains about the fuss made over "animal waste". Wedge Antilles snaps, does a Neck Lift on the defector, and tells him "Don't make me go Vader on you." It seems like it should be a Punctuated! For! Emphasis! moment, but that's really not a Wedge thing.
  • Requiem For A Rogue: It's hard not to find Wedge's undbending defiance in the face of the Dark Jedi who brought him back to life and could kill him effortlessly awesome.
