Aunt Beru has a small handful of lines before Stormtroopers kill her and Uncle Owen off camera, and most of them consist of her calling Luke's name. Despite this lack of screen time, I have always been obsessed with her. What was Aunt Beru's life as a young girl? How did she meet Uncle Owen? How did they fall in love? Are they in love?
In a "A New Hope," Uncle Owen tries to keep Luke away from Obi-Wan, and thus the path that would lead him to the Jedi. Aunt Beru gives her husband loaded looks, but she doesn't intervene. But when Owen and Luke get into a fight about Luke staying on at the farm for another season, she defends Luke and his goals.
"Luke's just not a farmer, Owen," she says. "He has too much of his father in him." And she does not mean that as a bad thing.
Was Beru always the one to defend Luke? Does she want him to find his destiny as a Jedi? Was she loving and kind to Luke as he grew up in what seems like a pretty lonely environment? I hope we'll finally find out.
