Whenever we think about BFFs, we think of the friendship metric created by the esteemed Atlanta philosophers T-Boz, Left Eye, and Chilli. They asked, "What about your friends? Will they stand their ground? Will they let you down again? What about your friends?"
In Return of the Jedi, friendship equals survival. Loyalty, trust, and compassion are the Rebels' greatest assets in their battle against the Empire. Luke, Han, and the rest of their crew know that an adventure is far more epic with pals, and that sometimes an extra pair of hands comes in really handy when you're trying to triumph over evil and save the galaxy. Or, to bring it back to the TLC test, they'll always stand their ground, and they'll never let each other down.
