2 things off the top.
First, I'm not labeling this as a Spoiler. If you haven't seen The Force Awakens, shame on you.
Second, I'm assuming you know/understand the relationship between Han and Chewbacca.
So in EP7, Han Solo is killed by the evil Kylo Ren, stabbed through the heart and falls off a bridge into the abyss below.
Chewbacca, seeing his best friend killed, howls in anger and fires off a blaster bolt at Kylo Ren, hitting him in the side and wounding him.
Here's the really messed up part. Chewbacca didn't just shoot at Kylo Ren out of anger and loss, he was trying to straight up murder Ben Solo, his best friends son. He was also trying to kill Leia's son too.
Think about it. Chewy was probably there the day Ben was born. He watched him grow up from a baby to a toddler to a kid to a young adult, before he was sent to train with Luke. You've got to think Chewbacca had a pretty close relationship with Ben before everything went sideways with Snoke and the Knights of Ren.
Just before Kylo killed Han, Leia was saying there was still light in him and wanting Han to bring him home. What would have happened in Chewy had killed Kylo?
"Sorry Leia. Ben stabbed Han with a lightsaber so I murdered your son because my friendship with Han is stronger than my friendship with you".
That's pretty messed up.
