Here’s a v2 of the dialog:

“Rey….wherever you are…You are hard to find.”

“You are hard to get rid of.”

“I pushed you in the desert because I needed to see it…I needed you to see it…who you are. I know the rest of your story, Rey…"

“You’re lying.”

“You were right… your parents were no one. The most ideal candidates for your birth.”

“Don’t!”

“Your mother wasn’t the only one selected to deliver a child like you…”

“I don’t want this!”

“You endangered your parents.”

“No!”

“Remember them… see them…”

(Same flashback as in original film with her mom’s face swapped for a different actress - preferably a different ethnicity)

“They paid for your protection… in more than one way…”

“Stop talking.”

(Cutaway to heroes capture)

“Palpatine sent assassins to track down children like you. He found your parents. But they wouldn’t say where you were. So he gave the order.”

(Vision of Rey’s parents getting killed - face swapped again)

“So that’s where you are. You know why the Emperor’s always wanted you dead? I’ll come tell you.”

“Why did the Emperor come for me? Why did he want to kill a child? Tell me.”

“Because he grew to fear what his followers had spawned. Those children had his power. You… are his clone.”

“Snoke was the only genetic strand-cast spared from his purge. You have a greater claim to the Sith throne than Palpatine’s current shell. But we can still let old things die. Together. And take his fleet for ourselves."

(Removes his helmet)

“You know what you need to do. You know.”

“I know.”
