All of these ideas would be wonderful for Capatain Faraday’s novelization. I’m just uncertain, like I said previously, that we have enough content here to successfully do what we’re talking about in film.
EDIT: Realized another reason why this wouldn’t work. If Rey’s parents had abandoned her, they would have given Palpatine her location without a second of hesitation. This muddies everything up because Ochi’s ship is the same ship that her parents use.
Yeah, but they hate Palpatine and, in this case, Rey. They would want her to suffer on the hell that is Jakku while ensuring Palpatine doesn’t transfer his essence into another Force-sensitive.
