"Oh, my. Space travel sounds rather perilous." [Artoo chatters] "I can assure you, they will never get me onto one of those dreadful starships."

My obtuse little friend, if they had needed our help, they would have asked for it, hmm? You obviously have a great deal to learn about human behavior."

"For a mechanic, you seem to do an excessive amount of thinking."

"Oh my goodness. Shut me down! Machines making machines. Hmm. How perverse."
