Malakili: You... you killed him.
Luke: Thank goodness.
Malakili: Buh... buh... How would you feel had someone brutally slain your master? <sob>
Luke: What?
Malakili: None was ever such an artiste at the slicing trade. I sought out my apprenticeship three years ago and he taught me but a sliver of what he knew.
Luke: Uh...
Malakili: But what would you know of the death of a mentor about whom you care? <sob>
Luke: Oh. I... I'm sorry. I had a mentor once.

Luke: Look, man, I don't want to upstage your unhappiness, but yes, he was.
Malakili: But was he a refined gentleman who dedicated himself to the art of slicing?
Luke: ... From a certain point of view.
