Quote #7
C-3PO: Wonderful. We are now a part of the tribe.
HAN: Just what I always wanted.
Han fancies himself a loner—the dude's last name is Solo, after all—but, in spite of the sarcasm on display here, he knows that he can't defeat the Empire on his own. The Ewoks may irk him, but, when it comes right down to it, he needs those little furballs.
Quote #8
LANDO: Don't worry, my friend's down there. He'll have that shield down in time. [to himself] Or this'll be the shortest offensive of all time.
When it comes to blowing up the Death Star, Lando puts a ton of trust in his old buddy Han. Even when Han's mission at the bunker on Endor hits some obstacles, Lando keeps the faith.
Quote #9
THE EMPEROR: Everything that has transpired has done so according to my design. Your friends, up there on the sanctuary moon, are walking into a trap, as is your Rebel fleet. It was I who allowed the Alliance to know the location of the shield generator. It is quite safe from your pitiful little band. An entire legion of my best troops awaits them. Oh, I'm afraid the deflector shield will be quite operational when your friends arrive.
The Emperor doesn't see friendship as a tool for success. He just sees it as a weapon. Here, he tries to use Luke's friends against him, to rile him up and send him careening toward the Dark Side in a ball of rage.
