Do you understand this license plate? (From Takei's Facebook)

A morning game: Don't click "like" unless you actually get this in, oh, say 10 secs. And don't give it away in the comments please. (Shame those who do, thanks.)

A simple yes or no. No spoilers!

My brother has a cool story. He travels a lot for business and his company flies him first class.
He was on a plane to Chicago from L.A. one time and none other than James Earl Jones sits
down across the aisle from him. Well, one of my brother's kids was a HUGE fan of JEJ so
my brother said he thought about whether and how he should ask for his autograph. Finally he
decided to do it.

"Mr. Jones, one of my sons is a big fan, and I wonder if you'd mind autographing
this napkin (paper/airline) for him?"

With a look that said, "I wish you'd leave me alone", JEJ replied, "OK. To whom
do I make it out and what would you like me to say--(Enter license plate here!!!)?"

"No," said my brother, "how about writing, 'I wasn't here, this didn't happen.'

JEJ let out one of his famous laughs--you could hear it all over the cabin--and signed
the napkin.

Can you identify the movie quote?

Because it was from Takei I thought I knew the context and type of topic but I got side tract thinking it was about something specific that it wasn't.
