Gotcha covered: The Stormtrooper misses the shot, but the redshirt keels over from the shock. Balance is restored.
The one I heard was: The stormtrooper misses but the red shirt dies anyways.
Right, thought I’d add some realism.

red shirts are personal human shields for the captain, and the important crew members.

The redshirts casually dispatch opponents who were themselves unable to hit the broad side of a barn let alone Luke in the cargo bay and who were later humiliated by ewoks (a full legion of the Empires best troops no less)
Until… a single stormtrooper, wounded and barely clinging to life, somehow manages to close to within hand-to-hand combat range.
Starfleet reports a 100 percent casualtie rate and no survivors among the security division.
Unconfirmed reports suggest the surviving stormtrooper was later murdered by Elmo from Sesame Street…
