I have an image of it in my head - Vader and his troops walk into that
area where all the space ships are parked. Right when the Falcon blasts off
and out of the cave base Vader points his finger at the Falcon and says I
Want That Ship.

I've mentioned it on other forums and most don't seem to remember it. I
would almost bet my left arm it was actually in the film. But who knows, it
was a long time ago.
