I hope Episode 9 really delves into the deep psychological wounds of the character, since that’s where the real story is going to be.

I agree. For me, she was much more interesting the first 30 minutes of TFA and a bit near the end when she’s having an emotional breakdown. I’d like to get her back to being the stranger we met a few years ago. By stranger, I mean someone with depth and interest.

All we got this last time was her being a bit snarky and somehow weirdly bashful with asking Ben to put his shirt on. Other than being on screen during the film, as a character, she’s largely absent from the story.

That said; Some of my thoughts could also be me having forgotten a lot of the film. I need to watch it again to be sure I’m not way off.

She still is a stranger. Her parents are nobody. It has been confirmed within The Last Jedi and Daisy Ridley that her parents are unimportant to her story and future.

KYLO REN: You have no place in this story. You come from nothing. You’re nothing. But not to me.

I believe her future will be with Ben, but she knows that he has to find it within himself where his rightful place should be. Only then will she come back to him.
