That’s correct. And I’m sure we can manage to make the line volume work, but no need to worry about that until we have a recording that Eddie is completely happy with.

Focusing now on the surrounding scenes, I have had a bit of a rethink about them. I was never too happy with the Kylo update scene where he says ‘put every hangar on lockdown, she’s going to steal a ship to escape’, because he is immediately distracted by Han’s presence and then in my edit he goes to the Falcon and ignores the lead on Rey. Essentially all of the dialogue in that scene would have to be removed except for his ‘Han Solo’ moment. It is also weird to have a dramatic establishing shot in that scene which would come after another establishing shot of the mountain or of Rey in the halls. Essentially there’s nothing about the first part of the scene that works here.

So I deleted it, and replaced it with another cut scene. I think this has much more promise.

“Sir, I saw the damage to the cell block. Is she really that dangerous?”
“She’s just beginning to touch her power. The longer it takes to find her, the more dangerous she becomes.”

That Kylo update scene was originally cut for several reasons. One, it feels like Kylo oversharing, and two, it increases the stakes in the wrong direction - we should be feeling like the villain is a greater threat at this point, not the hero. Now, however, Kylo’s dialogue is well-motivated and his warning about Rey is really a thinly-veiled threat directed at his underlings. And now that he has no lead on Rey, he is free to pursue the only lead he has, which is Han.
