Here’s an idea: cut back to the Resistance planning room right after Snoke says “Bring her to me.” Since they’ve just been talking about the reconnaissance ship and the Resistance Base, it makes a lot of sense. Then after the Han/Leia farewell scene show the establishing shot of the TIE’s over the the Starkiller Base mountains from earlier (where I assume it’s been deleted in favor of the planetary establishing shot), then cut to Rey’s mind trick scene. This also gives Rey more time to figure out how to mind trick the guard and less time aimlessly wandering around the base.

@Dominic: I think sometimes we worry too much about confusing the audience. I know I do 😉 But the plan before the reconnaissance ship was to destroy the Republic, so it’s pretty clear that it’s still in their crosshairs.
