Kylo Ren
[The First Order troops have captured Lor San Tekka and bring him to Kylo Ren]

Look how old you've become.

Tekka

Something far worse has happened to you.

Ren

You know what I've come for.

Tekka

I know where you come from. Before you called yourself "Kylo Ren".

Ren

The map to Skywalker. We know you've found it. And now you're going to give it to the First Order.

Tekka

The First Order rose from the dark side. You did not.

Ren

I'll show you the dark side.

Tekka

You may try. But you cannot deny the truth that is your family.

Ren

You're so right. [draws his lightsaber and kills Tekka]

Supreme Leader Snoke

The droid will soon be delivered to the Resistance, leading them to the last Jedi. If Skywalker returns, the new Jedi will rise.

General Hux

Supreme Leader, I take full responsibility—

Snoke

GENERAL! Our strategy must now change.

Hux

The weapon... it is ready. I believe the time has come to use it. We shall destroy the government that supports the Resistance... the Republic. Without their friends to protect them, the Resistance will be vulnerable, and we will stop them before they reach Skywalker.

Snoke

Go. Oversee preparations.

Hux

Yes, Supreme Leader.

Snoke

There has been an awakening. Have you felt it?

Ren

Yes.

Snoke

There's something more. The droid we seek is aboard the Millennium Falcon... in the hands of your father, Han... Solo.

Ren

He means nothing to me.

Snoke

Even you, Master of the Knights of Ren, have never faced such a test.

Ren

By the grace of your training, I will not be seduced.

Snoke

We shall see. [as his hologram fades] We shall see.

Rey

Where am I?

Ren

You're my guest.

Rey

Where are the others?

Ren

You mean the murderers, traitors and thieves you call friends? You'll be relieved to hear I have no idea. [slight pause] You still want to kill me.

Rey

That happens when you're being hunted by a creature in a mask.

Ren
[removes his mask, revealing his face. He moves forward, slams his mask down onto a table. He stands in front of Rey]

Tell me about the droid.

Rey

He's a BB-unit with a selenium drive and a thermal hyperscan vindicator—

Ren

Carrying a section of the navigation chart. We have the rest, recovered from the archives of the Empire, but we need the last piece, and somehow you convinced the droid to show it to you. You...a scavenger. [slight pause] You know I can take whatever I want. [reaches his hand towards Rey's face. Rey looks away, struggling to keep Kylo Ren out of her head] You've been so lonely, so afraid to leave. At night, desperate to sleep, you imagine an ocean. I see it. I see the island. And Han Solo; you feel like he's like the father you never had. He would've disappointed you.

Rey

Get out of my head!

Ren
[moves back, keeping his hand close to Rey's face]

I know you've seen the map. It's in there, and now, you'll give it to me. [continues to probe Rey's mind. Rey continues to resist] Don't be afraid; I feel it, too.

Rey

I'm not giving you anything!

Ren

We'll see. [struggles to read Rey's thoughts. After a few moments, he looks at Rey with disbelief]

Rey

You... you're afraid... that you will never be as strong as Darth Vader!
[Ren puts his hand down. Both he and Rey stare at each other, confused and afraid of what has happened]

Han
[Han sees Kylo Ren cross a walkway over Starkiller Base's reactor shaft. He hesitates at first, but decides to confront him]

BEN!

Ren

Han Solo. I've been waiting for this day for a long time.

Han
[slowly walking towards Ren]

Take off that mask. You don't need it.

Ren

What do you think you'll see if I do?

Han

The face of my son.

Ren
[removes his mask]

Your son is gone. He was weak and foolish like his father, so I destroyed him.

Han

That's what Snoke wants you to believe, but it's not true. My son is alive.

Ren

No. The Supreme Leader is wise.

Han

Snoke is using you for your power. When he gets what he wants, he'll crush you. You know it's true.

Ren

It's too late.

Han

No, it's not. Leave here with me. Come home. We miss you.

Ren
[Gradually pained]

I'm being torn apart. I want to be free of this pain. I know what I have to do, but I don't know if I have the strength to do it. Will you help me?

Han

Yes. Anything.

Rey
[Ren drops his mask, and offers his lightsaber to Han. As Han grabs it, the last rays of sunlight are absorbed into the Starkiller weapon, and Ren hesitates. After a brief moment, however, Ren ignites his saber through Han's chest, and Chewbacca roars in despair]

NO!

Ren
[To a distraught Han]

Thank you.
[Han touches his son's face, then succumbs to his wound, his body tumbling off the walkway down the reactor shaft]

Snoke

The scavenger resisted you?!

Ren

She is strong with the Force! Untrained, but stronger than she knows!

Snoke

And the droid?

Hux

Ren believed it was no longer valuable to us… that the girl was all we needed. As a result, the droid has most likely been returned to the hands of the enemy. They may have the map already.

Snoke

Then the Resistance must be destroyed before they get to Skywalker.

Hux

We have their location. We tracked their reconnaissance ship to the Ileenium system.

Snoke

Good. Then we will crush them once and for all. Prepare the weapon.

Ren

Supreme Leader, I can get the map from the girl. I just need your guidance.

Snoke

If what you say about this girl is true, bring her to me.
