Was it "There's one." Spoken by the stormtroopers pointing to Leia on the captured rebel ship?

I am disturbed to say the prize goes to Tesco Samoa

What is the secret Tesco, encylcopedic memory or just anally retentive?

Uber - From the German means "over"
I'm sure Mephisto can expand upon this "uber" simplification.
Mephisto?
EDIT:
Found this as well:
uber-whatever = Something that is highly superior, e.g. uberplanes, uberguns... uber is derived from the german word "uber" meaning "super-whatever".
Probably a "modern" evolution of the word / prefix.
