    Yea I wonder if that was ever addressed? I don’t remember the movies much and I never read the books but Vader must have seen, like, security footage or something and been like hey wait a fucking a second.

      There are plenty of 3P and R2 series robots running around. There’s no reason to believe he thought he knew them.

      Further, there’s a comic where he sees C-3PO’s blasted body and has a flashback. So even though they didn’t share the screen, Vader did share a moment.

      My actual biggest issue is that Vader stood in front of Leia and didn’t seem to have any idea that she could use the force or that she was his daughter.

        that she could use the force

        Except she couldn’t. She was Force sensitive, but had no training and couldn’t “use” the Force. And he had no idea he had children until after ANH. If he felt any connection at all to Leia he could have easily dismissed it as knowing Bail during the Clone Wars and that her family connection to Bail.

        My actual biggest issue is that Mara Jade isn’t canon

          Ok nerd, whatever you say.

          I’m only salty because you’re absolutely right. (Just kidding, I’m not actually salty, I just think it’s funny to say dumb shit)
