outtakes for Volume 3 (which
are quite funny) Migiera comes to a place in the woods, Sea of Dreams I
believe, where a group of beings looking exactly like Jawas are protecting one
of the other characters. It's a more serious scene (in the actual
episode), but in the outtakes

"I can't believe this. Is this the best the writer's can do?
Jawas?"

flips! [2]

R2D2-like droid with a hologram message to her...just like ANH. [3]

A fellow slave is an Ithorian Hammerhead [5]
The Muffin King (#2.50) 11/12/97 Dexter's Dad tries to get some
muffins from Dexter and Deedee. He tricks Dexter by telling him to come over to
him. Then he steps out of the shadows and says "Dexter, I am your
father" in a Vader-ish voice. Then Dexter says "No, that's impossi-
oh wait, you're right." Then Dad goes "Dexter, Join me, come to the
Muffin side, it is your destiny." Then Dexter goes into a trance and
starts to give him the muffins. Deedee then comes in and tells Dexter to
"snap out of it, he's using an old mind trick." [6]
Dexter's Laboratory gets taken over by an evil
computer game and Dexter himself is digitized into the game itself. So he
sends an astromech-type Droid to his sister. Deedee invites the droid in her
room and notices that the droid has something on it's plating. As soon as she
tries to get it off the Droid sends out a holographic message with her brother
calling for help. [7] Dexter
allows aliens to kidnap his sister Deedee. Not long after that he decides to
get her back and does so in a spaceship that looks a lot like an Y-wing
(including astromech Droid). [8]
In
another episode Dexter invented a small, open jet the size of a bumper car
which looks very identical to an A-wing. [9] In
one episode Dexter finds himself overmatched by the new kid, Mandark, in the classroom.
Among the structures making up the new kids lab is a Death Star. [10]
Deedee
locks and the Ness monster Dexter is seen to have a blue (or pink, can't
remember which) teddy bear wearing a very Chewbacca-like bandolier. [11]

documentary nature special. The call Dexter "Blackfoot" and,
at the end of the episode, they tag him, "BF 1138" [12]

code for his Lab is "Star Wars"
[13] the one where Dexter and three of his
friends were engrossed in a Role-Playing Game with Dee-Dee as the Game Master,
their characters were attacked by a dragon and Dexter's Furry-Footed Burrower
jumps onto the Knight covering his eyes, the knight shouts 'I can't see' and
Dex replies "Use the Force" [14] Dexter

(Disneyland/World the deep voice) and a lot of work for Disney). Luke

Leia (Marie), Imperial Officer (Paul Lynne), Obi Wan, actually Okey Ben
Pinocchio, (Redd Foxx).
Stormtroopers sing "Get Ready" (which was also used in a Burger King/Star

Darth Vader and Stormtroopers cut in front of them in line, and get the last
tickets. The group is furious that they've been cut, Joel's friend complains,
"Now we're not going to be the first to find out the big surprise!"
The main character yells out that the twist is Vader is Luke's father. The
"Darth Vader" in front of them turns around, angrily, and then the
guy starts shouting, "And in ROTJ Luke and Leia are twins! And in The
Phantom Menace ..." and then Darth Vader knocks him unconscious.
Also, when Darth Vader and the guy are fighting, his friend runs up to a guy
dressed as Obi-Wan and says, "Help us Obi-Wan Kenobi, you're our only
hope!" (thanks to amien for this

takin' a trip to the Dagobah system to chill with Yoda" and they just
give him a blank stare. (thanks to solo_fan87 for

Foxxy is teaching Wooldoor, she says, "And then, Foxxy brings it all home

to John at Obroa-Skai for references #7 & 8!) [9]
Xandir and Tim, Sitting in a Tree (#1.18) When
the roommates make their assault on the offices of Entertainment Weekly, they
use a rope trap that drops two water cooler bottles together to kill an office

next shot, 3 Ewoks jump out from behind a downed file cabinet to celebrate the
kill. (Thanks to John at Obroa-Skai for
reference # 9!) [10] Alzheimer's

to reveal the secret, which she breaks. The old folks take out a bounty
on her and call Boba Fett Boba Fett actually jumps out of the bushes, springs
his trap, then flies away with his jetpack. (Thanks
to Curtis Shaw!) AND another version When
Toot escapes from the nursing home full of Alzheimer's fakers, one of the old
folks calls in a hit on her...to Boba Fett. Later, Spanky tries to start
the scooter Toot drove away from the nursing home and it blows up, sending his
head rolling right to Boba Fett's feet. Then Boba takes off with his
jetpack. (Thanks to John at Obroa-Skai!)

warriors. [2] Crackers
Don't Matter (#2.4) 4/7/00 on
trusting someone: Crichton: Have you seen him? He's blind! He's got a

frustration. CRICHTON: Can't do it. EINSTEIN: You'd rather
die? CRICHTON: Not particularly, but I liked my childhood and I don't
wanna scramble the eggs. EINSTEIN: Should aggressive species puncture
the wormhole, the consequences for both our realms would be
unimaginable. Crichton closes his eyes. CRICHTON: Ah,
screw it! His anger covering his fear. But I am not Kirk,
Spock, Luke, Buck, Flash, or Arthur freaking Dent! I am Dorothy Gale
from Kansas, and you are going to hire more Ancients.
EINSTEIN: Then simply permit yourself to perish prior to reaching a
destination. CRICHTON: Moya...after... EINSTEIN: Her space-time
signature will be familiar. Powerful. CRICHTON: Moya.
