He cuts his Jedi training off early to save his friends, but does Luke Skywalker go back to Yoda?
Luke Skywalker does go back to Yoda. He returns to Dagobah to complete his training, but Yoda has reached old-age and passes away.
Yoda informs Luke that his Jedi training will be complete once he confronts Darth Vader.
Han is saved from carbonite
In Star Wars: Episode VI – Return of the Jedi, Luke and Leia aim to free Han from his carbonite prison. He’s trapped at Jabba The Hutt’s palace on Tatooine.
Leia is able to free Han from carbonite after infiltrating the palace under the guise of a bounty hunter. She’s quickly found out and captured, but Luke arrives to negotiate their release.
Negotiations go awry and Luke is dropped into a Rancor pit. Using his wit, Luke is able to trap the Rancor in the deadly spikes that line the bottom of the pit’s door. He is then to be executed for defeating the beast, but luckily has a lightsaber stashed away inside R2-D2 that is used to free the group.
Luke decides to go back to Yoda and complete his training
As Luke flies away from Tatooine, he informs his friends that he’ll meet up with them at the Fleet. Han thanks Luke for coming after him, saying he now owes him one. Han is referring to when he comes back in A New Hope and saves Luke’s life.
Luke informs R2-D2 that they’re going to the Dagobah system in order to keep a promise to an old friend.
Once Luke arrives at Dagobah, he enters Yoda’s home and sits with him. Yoda, in his special manner of speech, asks Luke if he seems old to him. The Jedi Master says he has become sick, old and weak. His personality has shifted to a more serious tone, opposite of when he acts crazy in Empire Strikes Back.
After 900 years, Yoda says in his manner of speech, you don’t look so good. He approaches a sitting area in his home, declaring he’ll soon take a “forever sleep” that’s well earned.
Shocked, Luke tells Yoda that he can’t pass away. Yoda says he’s strong with the Force, but not “that strong.” Twilight is upon Yoda, the Master says, and soon night must fall. Yoda states that is the way of the Force.
Luke says he needs Yoda’s help, as he’s come back to Dagobah to complete his training. Previously, Luke cuts his training short in order to help his friends.
Yoda says, in his way, that Luke requires no more training and he already knows everything he needs. Yet, Yoda says Luke will not be an official Jedi until he confronts Darth Vader.
So that’s the answer. Luke does go back to Yoda to complete his training, but Yoda passes away. He informs Luke that his Jedi training will be complete once he confronts Darth Vader.
