He looked up because he was confused about why the other tie blew up, wasn't paying attention to where he was going, and OOPS had an accident.
 
I could see getting wet over Vaders original T.I.E. fighter, but why are you girls going gaga over this one? $200,000??? Man, I'm a nerd and all, but even I have standards.

yeah, I showed it to a friend at work, who thought it was awesome, but agreed with me that there are tons more things I'd rather spend $200K on... like beer and hookers.

if I was the auctioneer, I'd honestly donate it to some film museum or something.

Luke Skywalker: What would you do if you had two hundered thousand dollars?
Han Solo: I'll tell you what I'd do, man: two wookies at the same time, man.
Luke Skywalker: That's it? If you had two hundred thousand dollars, you'd do two wookies at the same time?
Han Solo: Damn straight. I always wanted to do that, man. And I think if I were a thousanaire I could hook that up, too; 'cause wookies dig dudes with money.
Luke Skywalker: Well, not all wookies.
Han Solo: Well, the type of wookies that'd double up on a smuggler like me do.
Luke Skywalker: Good point.
Han Solo: Well, what about you now? what would you do?
Luke Skywalker: Besides two wookies at the same time?
Han Solo: Well, yeah.
Luke Skywalker: Nothing.

I thought Darth Vader was the one that looked up confused. The tie fighter pilot was the one that shouted watch out and then you see his fighter fly into Darth and then explode. But you never see an incoming laser blast from the direction of the Milenium Falcon.

Actually, Kahleeforneeya STATE sales tax is only 7.25%. Anything above that rate is levied by your county and/or city.
