I don’t have a lot of time and have to type with one hand right now, but I appreciate the continued discussion.

I would love to draw an explicit connection between the First Order and Final Order, however tenuous. I’m not sure if the crew have insignias that aren’t FO, so maybe that could be some work to do to make it feel valid.

The only reason that thing about trimming Rose was on the list to remind me to check it out because someone suggested it, but I don’t know the scene well enough from memory to know what they meant. It probably won’t happen anyway, so don’t worry.

The reason I want to replace Kylo’s line “I never lied to you” is because that revelation in TLJ was not something he told Rey at all, he just goaded her into saying (admitting) it herself. Having him now say “you were right” is more congruent with what came before.
