Did R2 know Luke was Anakin's son?

And if you're wondering if R2-D2 knows that Luke and Leia are Anakin's kids, the short answer is yes. R2-D2 and C-3P0 were present for their birth, and knew Anakin and Padmé were together.

Does R2 know Luke is Anakin's son?

R2-D2 was present when Padmé gave birth to Leia and Luke, so he knew Luke was Anakin's son – but what he didn't know was that Anakin became Darth Vader. In addition to that, Anakin's fall was surely a painful event in R2-D2's life, one that he definitely wouldn't like to remember or even talk about.

Does R2 still remember Anakin?

Because Anakin never wiped his memories, and Bail Organa didn't wipe it at the end of Revenge of the Sith, R2-D2 is the only character who remembers everything from the first six movies. He was also there for every major moment. While it might seem like a coincidence, it's not.

How does Luke know what R2-D2 is saying?

In both The Empire Strikes Back and Return of the Jedi, we see Luke in his X-wing using a small computer screen to transcribe R2-D2's beeps and boops. He also relies on C-3PO to interpret these sounds.

Does Yoda recognize R2-D2?

Yoda recognized R2-D2 during The Empire Strikes Back.

Why R2-D2 Never Told Luke that Darth Vader is Anakin - Star Wars Explained

Can Anakin speak droid?

Yes, Anakin Speaks Droid in 'STAR WARS: Revenge of the Sith' Deleted Scene. When it comes to the Star Wars prequels, fans are both divided, and vocal. The Phantom Menace is usually met with the same reaction across the fandom.

Why does Vader not recognize C-3PO?

Perhaps, Darth Vader just figures that this is another protocol droid and not C-3PO. Obviously, C-3PO does not recognize Vader because his memory was wiped at the end of Revenge of the Sith. What are your possible explanations for this hole in the Star Wars plot?

Did Vader ever meet R2?

A New Hope : Darth just misses R2D2 on the Tantive IV. They're both on the Death Star at the same time but it's reasonably clear that they didn't meet, even for a polite lunch. They're around 50 yards from each other during the trench run.

Why does Obi-Wan not recognize R2-D2?

R2-D2 was always assigned to Anakin, not Obi-Wan. If Obi-Wan did recognize R2-D2 but did not want Luke to know, this would explain why Obi-Wan called R2-D2 his “little friend” while Luke was still unconscious.

Why did R2-D2 not recognize Yoda?

The reason is because of the infamous scene where Luke Skywalker meets Obi-Wan (who went by Ben). Obi-Wan states that he doesn't remember owning a droid. (He doesn't say he doesn't recognize R2-D2.)

How did Vader not sense Leia?

Leia was not using the Force or was currently Force-sensitive during her confrontation with Vader. She began training as a Jedi years later. All these reasons prove my point: Vader didn't know Leia was his daughter, and felt no presence of the Force in her, as she was not currently strong with the Force.

Does C-3PO know Vader is Anakin?

I believe that Darth Vader knew about C3PO but didn't want to say anything because it's in the past for him and he simply doesn't want to think about that. C3P0 didn't know about Vader being Anakin (and R2D2) because their memories were deleted sooner or later after the Jedi Purge, getting new masters and jobs.

Did R2 remember Obi-Wan?

Obi Wan and R2 interact frequently in the prequels - given the timeline, it seems odd that Obi Wan would have absolutely no recollection of R2. Unlike the droids (i.e., C-3PO and R2-D2) Obi Wan's memory wasn't wiped.

Why does Obi-Wan look so old?

Returning the original point: Obi-Wan has aged so badly because he's using a mass-scale Jedi illusion or mind-trick (or something similar) to block Vader from sensing Luke and himself on Tatooine. The constant years of using the force at a high level is literally killing him.

Why didnt Obi-Wan tell Luke about Leia?

Obi-Wan did not disclose to Luke the identity of his sister, as his attachment to her could betray them both to the enemy (as it did in RotJ).

Did Vader know Leia was his daughter?

Vader discovers Leia is his daughter because of Luke.

Luke had only recently discovered the two were siblings and, even more recently, had revealed their connection to the princess. Vader likely sensed their emotional bond through the Force when speaking with his son.

Did Vader recognize Ahsoka?

So when she's fighting Vader, and slashes his mask to see her master's eye, it's a shock. But then he recognizes her, which makes it worse. “When he calls out to her after the dramatic moment… there's catastrophe happening all around,” Filoni said.

Why does Darth Vader not use force lightning?

Darth Vader can not use force lighting, because of his severed arms. Robotic hands can't summon the force lighting. However Darth Vader can still use other forms of the force, such as force choke.

Why did Darth Vader stop Boba Fett from shooting Chewbacca?

As Han Solo, Chewbacca, and Leia were gathered in one location at the same time, Vader and his stormtroopers had the perfect opportunity to take them down. However, because he saw their dynamic as a source of weakness, he opted to spare them.

Can Obi Wan understand R2-D2?

Obi-Wan never said that he didn't recognize the droids, but even if he did, he's been known to fib before. For instance, he initially lied to Luke about Anakin's fate (well, I suppose it was true from "a certain point of view"), and in a sense, he's been lying for years under his fabricated identity of Ben Kenobi.

What language does R2-D2 speak?

Binary, or Droidspeak, is made up of beeps and whistles. The language is “spoken” by droids such as R2-D2 and BB-8. In an early draft of the Star Wars script, R2-D2 speaks standard English.

Can I learn Droidspeak?

In the lore it is real, but in reality it is not. It is impossible to learn droidspeak because there is nothing there to learn. In other fictional languages there can be some parts that really resemble an actual language. With droidspeak there is nothing of the sort, since it has no structure whatsoever.
