Maybe Kylo Ren could’ve said they sold her to get off Jakku.
Doesn’t really have the same ring to it. He was trying to make her feel worthless in order to get her to join him (break her down to build himself up), so I feel like “drinking money” fits fine here. It doesn’t have to be 100% truthful.
Plus… What was it Obi-wan said in the original film…? The idea that characters have to give 100% factual information is kind of silly.
