Quotes
-
Luke Skywalker : Where are you from?
Rey : Nowhere.
Luke Skywalker : No one's from nowhere.
Rey : Jakku.
Luke Skywalker : All right, that *is* pretty much nowhere.
-
Luke Skywalker : What do you know about the force?
Rey : It's a power that Jedi have that lets them control people and... make things float.
Luke Skywalker : Impressive. Every word in that sentence was wrong.
-
Kylo Ren : Do you know the truth about your parents? Or have you always known? You've just hidden it away. Say it.
Rey : [in tears] They were nobody.
Kylo Ren : They were filthy junk traders. Sold you off for drinking money. They're dead in a pauper's grave in the Jakku desert. You come from nothing. You're nothing. But not to me.
-
Luke Skywalker : You went straight to the dark.
Rey : That place was trying to show me something.
Luke Skywalker : It offered something you needed. And you didn't even try to stop yourself.
Rey : But I didn't see you. Nothing from you. You've closed yourself off from the Force. Of course you have.
Luke Skywalker : I've seen this raw strength only once before in Ben Solo. It didn't scare me enough then. It does now.
-
Luke Skywalker : Breathe. Just breathe. Now reach out. What do you see?
Rey : Light. Darkness. A balance.
Luke Skywalker : It's so much bigger.
-
Luke Skywalker : What do you see?
Rey : The island. Life. Death and decay, that feeds new life. Warmth. Cold. Peace. Violence.
Luke Skywalker : And between it all?
Rey : Balance and energy. A force.
Luke Skywalker : And inside you?
Rey : Inside me, that same force.
-
Rey : I know this place.
Luke Skywalker : Built a thousand generations ago to keep these. The original Jedi texts. Just like me, they're the last of the Jedi religion. You've seen this place. You've seen this island.
Rey : Only in dreams.
-
Kylo Ren : It's time to let old things die. Snoke... Skywalker... the Sith... the Jedi... the rebels. Rey... I want you to join me. We can rule together and bring a new order to the galaxy.
Rey : Don't do this Ben. Please don't go this way.
Kylo Ren : No, no. You're still holding on! Let go! You want to know the truth about your parents or have you always known? You've just hidden it away. You know the truth. Say it.
[Rey is silent]
Kylo Ren : Say it.
Rey : [in tears] They were nobody.
Kylo Ren : They were filthy junk traders. Sold you off for drinking money. They're dead, in a pauper's grave in a Jakku desert. You had no place in this story. You come from nothing. You're nothing, but not to me. Join me.
[puts his hand out. Rey stares at him hesitantly in tears]
Kylo Ren : Please...
-
Rey : I need someone to show me my place in all of this.
-
Rey : You didn't fail Kylo. Kylo failed you. I won't.
-
Luke Skywalker : Lesson two. Now that they're extinct, the Jedi are romanticized, deified. But if your strip away the myth and look at their deeds, the legacy of the Jedi is failure. Hypocrisy, hubris.
Rey : That's not true!
Luke Skywalker : At the height of their powers, they allowed Darth Sidious to rise, create the Empire, and wipe them out. It was a Jedi Master who was responsible for the training and creation of Darth Vader.
Rey : And a Jedi who saved him. Yes. Your father was the most hated man in the galaxy. He caused so much death and destruction for many years. But you saw there was conflict inside him. You believed that he wasn't gone. That he could be turned.
Luke Skywalker : And I became a legend. For many years, there was balance and then I saw... Ben. My nephew with that mighty Skywalker blood. And in my hubris, I thought I could train him, I could pass on my strengths. Han was... Han was about it, but... Leia trusted me with her son. I took him, and a dozen students, and began a training temple. By the time I realized I was no match for the darkness rising in him, it was too late.
Rey : What happened?
Luke Skywalker : I went to confront him, and he turned on me. He must've thought I was dead. When I came to, the temple was burning. He had vanished with a handful of my students, and slaughtered the rest. Leia blamed Snoke, but... it was me. I failed. Because I was Luke Skywalker. Jedi Master. A legend.
Rey : The galaxy may need a legend. I need someone to show me my place in all this. And you didn't fail Kylo. Kylo failed you. I won't.
-
Rey : You don't have to do this. I feel the conflict in you. It's tearing you apart. Ben, when we touched hands, I saw your future. Just the shape of it but solid and clear. You will not bow before Snoke. You'll turn. I'll help you.
Kylo Ren : I saw something too. I know that when the time comes, you'll be the one to turn. You'll stand with me, Rey. I saw who your parents are.
-
Snoke : [Rey uses the force to take Kylo's lightsaber] Hold still that fiery spit of hope. You have the spirt of a true Jedi.
[Rey charges at Snoke with Kylo's lightsaber. Snoke picks Rey up with the force and she lands in front of Kylo. Kylo's lightsaber spins around and stops in front of him]
Snoke : And because of that you must die.
Snoke : [Snoke uses the force and turns Rey toward Kylo] My worthy apprentice, son of darkness, heir apparent to Lord Vader, where there was conflict I now sense resolved, where there was weakness, strength. Complete your training and fulfill your destiny.
Kylo Ren : [Kylo picks up his lightsaber] I know what I have to do.
Rey : Ben...
Snoke : You think you can turn him. Pathetic child. I cannot be betrayed. I cannot be beaten. I see his mind. I see his every intent. Yes. I see him turning the lightsaber to strike true.
[Without Snoke knowing, Kylo uses the force to face Rey's lightsaber toward him]
Snoke : And now, foolish child, he ignites it and kills his true enemy!
[Rey's lightsaber ignites and Snoke is cut in half]
-
[Chewbacca busts down the door]
Luke Skywalker : Chewie, what are you doing here?
[Chewbacca growls]
Rey : He said you're coming back with us.
Luke Skywalker : How'd you find me here?
Rey : Long story, we'll tell you on the Falcon.
Luke Skywalker : Falcon? Wait. Where's Han?
-
Rey : Master Skywalker? I'm with the Resistance. Your sister Leia sent me. We need your help.
-
Rey : [seeing Kylo Ren shirtless] Do you have something, a cowl, or something you can put on?
-
Luke Skywalker : It's not just about lifting rocks. The force binds everything together.
Rey : Ok. But what is it?
Luke Skywalker : Close your eyes.
[Rey does so]
Luke Skywalker : Breathe. Now reach out.
[Rey literally reaches her hand out and Luke starts tickling her hand with a leaf]
Rey : [gasps] I feel something.
Luke Skywalker : You do?
Rey : Yes.
Luke Skywalker : That's the force. It must be really strong.
Rey : I've never felt anything like...
[Luke slaps her hand with the leaf]
Rey : Ow!
-
Rey : Something inside me has always been there. But now it's awake. And I'm afraid. I don't know what it is or what to do with it. And I need help.
Luke Skywalker : You need a teacher. I cannot teach you.
Rey : Why not? I've seen your daily routine. You're not busy.
Luke Skywalker : I will never train another generation of Jedi. I came to this island to die. It's time for the Jedi to end.
-
Snoke : [Rey's restrains are undone] Come closer, child. So much strength. Darkness rises and light to meet it. I warned my young apprentice that as he grew stronger, his equal in the light would rise.
[uses the force to take Rey's lightsaber]
Snoke : Skywalker...
[laughs]
Snoke : I assumed, wrongly. Closer I said.
[uses the force to slowly move Rey toward him]
Rey : You underestimate Skywalker and Ben Solo and me. It will be your downfall.
Snoke : Oh. Have you seen something? A weakness... in my apprentice... is that why you came?
[laughs]
Snoke : Young fool. It was I who bridged your minds. I stopped Ren's conflicted soul. I knew he was not strong enough to hide it from you and you were not wise enough to resist the bait.
[moves Rey closer and looks face to face with her]
Snoke : Now, you will give me Skywalker, then I will kill you with the cruelest stroke.
Rey : No.
Snoke : Yes.
[forces Rey into the air]
Snoke : Give me everything.
[Rey screams in agony]
-
Rey : [having returned to her hut after her ordeal in the Mirror Cave] I thought I'd find answers here. I was wrong. I've never felt so alone.
Kylo Ren : You're not alone.
Rey : Neither are you.
[Rey and Ren reach out to each other through the Force. Luke notices them touching hands]
Luke Skywalker : STOP!
[Rey and Ren look at Luke angrily; Luke uses the Force to push the hut apart. Rey searches for Ren, who has vanished]
Rey : [turns to Luke] Is it true? Did you try to murder him?
Luke Skywalker : Leave this island, now!
[Luke storms off into the rain, but Rey follows after him]
Rey : Stop... STOP!
[knocks Luke down in the back of the head with her quarterstaff]
Rey : Did you do it? Did you create Kylo Ren?
[the two proceed to fight each other along the cliffside until she gets the upper hand, forcing Luke into submission with Anakin Skywalker's lightsaber]
Rey : Tell me the truth.
Luke Skywalker : I saw darkness. I sensed it building in him. I'd seen it in moments during his training. But then I looked inside, and it was beyond what I ever imagined. Snoke had already turned his heart. He would bring destruction and pain and death, and the end of everything I love because of what he will become, and for the briefest moment of pure instinct, I thought I could stop it. It passed like a fleeting shadow, and I was left with shame and with consequence. And the last thing I saw were the eyes of a frightened boy whose Master had failed him.
Rey : You failed him by thinking his choice was made. It wasn't! There's still conflict in him. If he would turn from the Dark Side, that could shift the tide! This could be how we win!
Luke Skywalker : This is not going to go the way you think!
Rey : It is. Just now, when we touched hands, I saw his future. As solid as I'm seeing you. If I go to him, Ben Solo will turn.
Luke Skywalker : Rey... Don't do this.
Rey : Then he is our last hope.
-
[Luke Skywalker sees that Rey and his nephew Kylo Ren are touching hands]
Luke Skywalker : [yells] STOP!
[Rey and Kylo Ren look at him angrily and she looks for Kylo Ren who has vanished. She turns to Luke]
Rey : Is it true? Did you try to murder him?
Luke Skywalker : Leave this island, now!
[Luke leaves. But, Rey followed him]
Rey : Stop... STOP!
[Rey slugs Luke with her quarterstaff. He turns to her]
Rey : Did you do it? Did you kill Kylo Ren?
[Luke began to fight back with a stick]
-
Snoke : I did not expect Skywalker to be so wise. We will give him and the Jedi Order the death he desires. After the Rebels are gone, we will go to his planet and obliterate the entire island.
[Rey tries to use the Force to take Anakin Skywalker's lightsaber, but Snoke uses it to hit her on the head]
Snoke : Such spunk. Look here now.
[uses the Force to move Rey toward the viewport to show her the Resistance transport ships being destroyed one by one]
Snoke : The entire Resistance on those transports. Soon, they will all be gone. For you, all is lost.
[Rey uses the Force to take Ren's lightsaber]
Snoke : Oh, still that fiery spit of hope? You have the spirit of a true Jedi!
[Rey charges at Snoke with Ren's lightsaber. Snoke picks her up with the Force and she lands in front of Ren. His lightsaber spins around and stops in front of him]
Snoke : And because of that... you must die.
[uses the Force and turns Rey toward Ren]
Snoke : My worthy apprentice, son of darkness, heir apparent to Lord Vader. Where there was conflict, I now sense resolve; Where there was weakness, strength. Complete your training, and fulfill your destiny.
Kylo Ren : [picks up his lightsaber] I know what I have to do.
Rey : Ben...
Snoke : [laughs] You think you can turn him? Pathetic child, I cannot be betrayed. I cannot be beaten. I see his mind: I see his every intent. Yes. I see him turning the lightsaber to strike true!
[without Snoke knowing, Ren uses the Force to face Anakin Skywalker's lightsaber toward him]
Snoke : And now, foolish child, he ignites it... and kills his true enemy!
[Ren uses the Force to ignite Anakin Skywalker's lightsaber and Snoke is cut in half at the waist; the lightsaber flies back into Rey's hand. Ren ignites his own lightsaber and he and Rey fight Snoke's Praetorian guards]
-
Rey : I felt something... it awakened, but now I need to know how to wield it.
-
Rey : Why did you hate your father? Give me an honest answer. You had a father who loved you! He gave a damn about you!
Kylo Ren : I didn't hate him.
Rey : Then why?
Kylo Ren : Why what?
[Rey hesitates]
Kylo Ren : Why what? Say it.
Rey : [tearfully] Why did you... Why did you kill him? I don't understand.
Kylo Ren : No? Your parents threw you away like garbage.
Rey : They didn't!
Kylo Ren : They did. But you can't stop needing them. It's your greatest weakness. Looking for them everywhere... in Han Solo, now in Skywalker. Did he tell you what happened that night?
Rey : Yes.
Kylo Ren : [beat] No. He had sensed my power, as he senses yours. And he feared it.
[Rey sees a vision of Luke attacking a young Ben Solo]
Rey : [shaken] Liar.
Kylo Ren : Let the past die. Kill it if you have to. It's the only way to become who you were meant to be.
-
Luke Skywalker : Why are you here, Rey from nowhere?
Rey : The Resistance sent me. We need your help, the First Order has become unstoppable...
Luke Skywalker : Why are *you* here?
[pause]
Rey : Something inside of me has always been there. And now it's awake. And I'm afraid. I do not know what it is, or what to do with it. And I need help.
-
Snoke : [Rey's restraints are undone] Come closer, child. So much strength. Darkness rises, and light to meet it. I warned my young apprentice that as he grew stronger, his equal in the light would rise.
[uses the Force to take Anakin Skywalker's lightsaber]
Snoke : Skywalker...
[laughs]
Snoke : I assumed. Wrongly. Closer, I said.
[uses the Force to slowly move Rey toward him]
Rey : You underestimate Skywalker, and Ben Solo, and me. It will be your downfall.
Snoke : Oh. Have you seen something? A weakness... in my apprentice... is that why you came?
[laughs]
Snoke : Young fool. It was I who bridged your minds. I stoked Ren's conflicted soul. I knew he was not strong enough to hide it from you, and you were not wise enough to resist the bait!
[moves Rey closer and looks face to face with Rey]
Snoke : And now... you will give me Skywalker. Then... I will kill you with the cruelest stroke.
Rey : Oh, no.
Snoke : Oh, yes.
[forces Rey into the air]
Snoke : Give... me... everything.
[Rey screams in agony]
