No one can mock you, quite like family [SWSW] - dmv.social

Repost from Risa@startrek As a millennial, the Trek VS Wars debates always confused me. Star Trek is philosophy and political science class in a scifi, flavor of the week format. And Star Wars is fantasy in a science fiction setting. Why can’t we all just love them for what they are? Here we see Deeana Troi poking fun at how quickly a couple retcons about family and the force sort of ruin the first half of a New Hope. If Luke could call out to Leia at the end of ESB then how did Vader not know here?

That wasn't related to their familial connection, though. Their familial connection wasn't established until ROTJ.

My point still stands. Did Vader not realize she was force sensitive? Luke was able to determine their relationship through the force in ROTJ
(Ignoring that it was all retconning) I think force sensitivity wouldn’t necessarily be an indicator of anything. Force users can probably detect some amount of force sensitivity from others, in varying amounts. Most people are probably weak, with a few standouts here and there. But latent force sensitivity probably doesn’t set off any alarm bells the way a “trained” force sensitive would. So if he had detected she had any training, like I assume force users somehow “guard” themselves against others probing, that would’ve set him off and he’d realize, she’s hiding something. Also, given that this occurs literally right after the events in Rogue One, he was probably more focused on retrieving the Death Star plans.
