Han and Leia's enthusiastic granddaughter Allana finds a device on the Millennium Falcon, and they go on a series of fact finding adventures to learn about the Falcon's history.

The history of the Millennium Falcon is approached from both ends of it's history as the Solo family backtrack the Falcon's extensive history, while a former owner is driven to find out what has happened to the Falcon after he owned it. The device found on the Falcon is a key to an Old Republic treasure, so a criminal element is after the Millennium Falcon as well.

It was fun learning about the history of the Millennium Falcon. From it's beginning, it was always acting up - a lemon starship. One such incident killed a copilot. That was the one thing that spoiled the character of the Millennium Falcon for me, otherwise the Falcon is like a beloved eccentric uncle. All of the former owners had loved the ship and were sorry that they had to get rid of the Falcon for various reasons. It was really nice to learn how the Millennium Falcon got her name.
