After Luke and Obi-Wan have departed, Han is involved in a brief confrontation with Greedo, a green-skinned gangster the exchange ends violently when Han shoots and kills Greedo. Obi-Wan introduces Luke to a pair of smugglers, Chewbacca and Han Solo, and they negotiate terms for passage to the planet Alderaan, which prompts Luke to sell his landspeeder to get the money they need to pay Han. This is the first time a lightsaber is used in combat on-screen in the Star Wars franchise.
Luke is threatened with violence by two of the customers, Ponda Baba, an Aqualish, and Doctor Evazan, a deformed human, but Obi-Wan intervenes with his lightsaber, cutting Ponda's arm off in the fight. A band of domed-headed aliens plays a set of otherworldly jazz-style music. The cantina attracts a range of exotic alien species, although droids are not permitted to enter the bartender orders them to leave, saying "We don't serve their kind in here". Strong drink is on sale at the bar and there are frequent outbreaks of violence among the clientele.
Upon arrival, Luke and Obi-Wan enter the cantina, a dimly-lit tavern patronised by visiting starship pilots. Obi-Wan warns Luke that the spaceport may be dangerous. The Mos Eisley scenes occur early in Star Wars, when the young hero Luke Skywalker and his mentor Obi-Wan Kenobi travel to the spaceport in Luke's landspeeder in search of a pilot, accompanied by the droids, C-3PO and R2-D2.
Spacecraft land at docking bays dotted across the city. The lawless spaceport attracts criminals, smugglers and fugitives.
