Plot summary
Luke Skywalker, Leia Organa and the droids take a Y-wing fighter to a jungle planet where they answer a beacon left behind by a Prince.

Years ago, he crash-landed on this world. It is now imperative that he returns to take the rite of succession or else his younger brother, an Imperial sympathizer, will gain control of the planet.

Luke disguised, escorts the Prince back to claim the throne just in time to prevent the coronation of his brother as the new king.
At the ceremonial commemoration of the return, a plan is made to have him and Luke killed in order to keep the planet sympathetic to the Empire.

With all of the conspirators either killed or captured, the Prince is free to become King and pledges to be sympathetic to the Rebellion.
Luke, Leia and the droids bid farewell and leave.
