As I’ve said before, from a purely logistical stance it’s laughable that in a twenty mile radius of Jakku desert we have the Millennium Falcon, the map to Luke, and the granddaughter of Palpatine/powerful Force sensitive whose parents were personally killed by Kylo Ren, with all of these things finding their way to the planet entirely coincidentally.

Agreed. In my sequel mashup these issues won’t exist. When the movie begins, Rey will be immediately established as a “nobody” orphan taken in and trained by Luke (and Mara Jade?). She was captured when Ben and his “Knights” torched the Jedi academy and killed a bunch of Luke’s students.

So as the reedit opens, Rey is already at Starkiller Base. I’ll extend the time frame of her interrogation so that, as Kylo works on her, we cut away to her memories of being orphaned and having been trained.
