Just had a good one, what if Rey’s parents were killed by an accident related to the war?

Similar to Jyn Erso’s dad being killed in the crossfire…what if they were not murdered, but simply because they were unlucky enough to be hit in a rebel strike happened as they were leaving?

If there was any footage of the actors, a few tweaks of dialogue make it work. If this were a re-DIRECTING forum, I’d say have a scene where the alcoholic father HAD to take a drink along with him because he couldn’t cope with the stress of what he was about to do.

This edit would add at least the tinist bit of conflict for Rey towards the rebellion and at least give the smallest reason to consider Kylo’s “leave it all behind” message that was mostly ignored anyways.
