The suspicious superfan
Jack was excited. LANDO was coming out soon, and Jim was a huge Star Wars fan, so he was happy for him. Ernie was bullying Jim though, claiming he was the better fan.
Jack acted as the judge with all the trivia.
“What planet is Obi-Wan Kenobi from?”
Ernie said: “Coruscant.”
“Incorrect.”
Jim replied: “Stewjon.”
“Correct.”
“How many Dewbacks were in the original 1977 theatrical cut of the first Star Wars movie?”
“Seven” came from Ernie.
“It is actually 2.”
“Jim is correct.”
“Who was the former Sith Lord that was Darth Sidious’ master?”
“Darth Revan.”
“Incorrect, Ernie.”
“Darth Plagueis.”
“Correct.”
“Who is Trioculus?”
Silence came from Ernie.
“Trioculus was a three-eyed mutant warlord of the Galactic Empire.”
Ernie slammed the table in front of him.
“Game’s rigged! Jim and Jack are working together. I knew it! You will never find a more wretched hive of scum and villainy. That’s from Obi-wan.”
Jim turned to Ernie and replied.
“The ability to speak does not make you intelligent.”
“Whatever.”
Ernie waved his hand dismissively.
“Han Solo couldn’t have done the Kessel Run in 12 parsecs though. Parsecs is a measurement unit. Hah! That’s something that you don’t know!”
Jim exhaled and sighed, as if he had heard this many times before.
“Amazing. Every word of what you just said was wrong.”
WHY?
