There is no redemption. He needs to die like a dog. He murdered his father. He murdered his mentor. He murdered all of his fellow students. He attempted to murder his uncle. He either needs to win and the trilogy ends on down note or he needs to die.
I don’t see any reasonable way he can turn to the light and survive. He was part of the murder of an entire system.
You’re almost 35 years too late.
Is this in reference to Vader? Because his death was part of his redemption. There is no logistical way he could have survived and returned with Luke to the Rebels.
Also, I don’t think we actually saw Vader kill any Rebels in the OT. Kylo ordered the murder of an innocent village of people in TFA. He’s gotta die or win.
He betrayed the Republic in support of a space fascist regime. He helped the new Empire to hunt Jedis. He tortured Leia and sent Stormtroopers to kill or capture anyone onboard the Tantive IV. As the Emperor’s right hand, he gave thumbs up to planet killing weapons twice. He tortured Han and put him in permanent hibernation. He cut Luke’s arm. He forced Obi-Wan to commit space seppuku. He took control of a peaceful mining colony just because. He took Luke to the Emperor, who later tortured him. He sent countless of people to almost certain death just to capture a few people.
Saying sorry five minutes before dying of injuries caused by the tyranical, genocidal guy you helped and supported him for two decades is not enough.
