“Sorry,” Han says. “You’re still an Imperial officer. We’ll go together.”
Sodarra sighs in frustration. “You could be leading us into a trap!”
“Or avoiding one,” Han replies. “I want everybody in one place, and then we all go at once, and there’s no back-stabbing. I like my back whole, thank-you very much.”
The Imperial looks like he would carry the argument further, but Chewbacca’s arrival with the supplies forestalls any more discussion for the moment. Han helps stow rations, and not-so-surreptitiously check the ship for take-off. He has the feeling they won’t be leaving Tatooine in a leisurely fashion. At last satisfied with the ship’s condition, he turns to the Wookiee. “I think it’s time to put in a visit ‘dockside’.”
Chewbacca growls his agreement.
“Very well, then,” Sodarra says. “At least let me have a comlink so that I can contact you if we get separated.”
“Not on your life,” Han says. Although Sodarra’s stormtroopers have radios inside their armor, those radios can only be used to contact each other. With a comlink, Sodarra can contact any Imperial soldier within an hour of Tatooine. Han does not feel like trusting him that far.
