Going Off The Cuff

We are sure that you are familiar with this particular scene from the Star Wars franchise. Before Darth Vader froze Han Solo alive, he had a final exchange with Princess Leia. She confessed, “I love you.” Most people would have simply said it back, but he just stared at her and said, “I know.” Who would have thought that it was actually an improvised line by the actor?
