Seamless editing (though the transition to Rey is a little abrupt - opportunity for a wipe?).

What’s your plan for Palpatine’s plan in the movie? Maybe I’m just slow but I never worked out why he asked Kylo to kill Rey. He clearly doesn’t actually want her dead; he wants her on Exegol so he can ritualistically bodysnatch her or whatever. What if Kylo had run Rey through and come back to claim his new fleet? Was Palps just banking on Kylo caring too much about Rey? Palpatine’s prequel plans were hardly airtight either, but I don’t really see what he actually wants from Kylo. Once they’re together he uses the dyad - was that his plan all along?

When Palpatine senses Kylo’s turn to the light, he tells Pryde that “the princess of Alderan has disrupted his plans” surely this is a remnant of the original script where his plan A was for kylo and Rey to take the throne.
