In Legends, R2-D2 introduced Luke Skywalker to his mother and his father’s fall to the dark side. More than three decades after the Battle of Yavin, R2-D2 encountered memory glitches. As the master slicer Ghent began to repair the issues, he discovered countless holographic recordings in the astromech’s memory banks.

As a projection shimmered to life, Luke saw his mother, Padme, for the first time. But R2 refused to show Luke any more recordings. The droid had never shown them before in order to spare him the searing pain of the past. However, R2’s resolve crumbled, and he revealed the heart-wrenching final conversations between Luke’s parents. But he also revealed something truly spine-chilling - footage captured by the Jedi Temple’s security systems of the sinister acts committed by Anakin Skywalker and the 501st Legion against the Jedi Order. But one event struck Luke to his core: his parent’s final moments together on Mustafar. Witnessing his father's aggression and the abandonment of an unconscious Padme in order to attack his former master, Obi-Wan Kenobi, left Luke utterly disturbed.
