• Kylo Ren : I know what I have to do, but I don't know if I have the strength to do it.

  Han Solo : You do.

• Rey : People keep telling me they know me. No one does.

  Kylo Ren : But I do.

• Han Solo : Hey, kid.

  [Kylo turns to see a vision of Han Solo standing behind him] 

  Han Solo : I missed you, son.

  Kylo Ren : Your son is dead.

  Han Solo : No... Kylo Ren is dead. My son is alive.

  Kylo Ren : [in disbelief]  You're just a memory.

  Han Solo : Your memory. Come home.

  Kylo Ren : It's too late. She's gone.

  Han Solo : Your mother's gone. But what she stood for, what she fought for... that's not gone.

  [pause] 

  Han Solo : Ben...

  Kylo Ren : I know what I have to do, but I don't know if I have the strength to do it.

  Han Solo : [touches Kylo's cheek]  You do.

  [Kylo looks down at his lightsaber, then back at Han] 

  Kylo Ren : Dad...

  Han Solo : [smiles]  I know.

• [first lines] 

  Emperor Palpatine : At last. Snoke trained you well.

  Kylo Ren : I killed Snoke. I'll kill you.

  Emperor Palpatine : My boy, I made Snoke. I have been every voice...

  Snoke : ..you have ever heard..

  Darth Vader : ...inside your head.

  Emperor Palpatine : The First Order was just the beginning. I will give you so much more.

  Kylo Ren : You'll die first.

  Emperor Palpatine : I've died before. The dark side of the Force is a pathway to many abilities some consider to be... unnatural.

  Kylo Ren : What could you give me?

  Emperor Palpatine : Everything. A new empire. The might of the Final Order will soon be ready. It will be yours if you do as I ask. Kill the girl, end the Jedi and become what your grandfather Vader could not. You will rule all the galaxy as the new emperor. But beware. She is not who you think she is.

  Kylo Ren : Who is she?

• Kylo Ren : What could you give me?

  Emperor Palpatine : Everything. A new empire.

• Kylo Ren : [holding the Sith wayfinder]  Look at yourself. You wanted to prove to my mother that you were a Jedi, but you've proven something else. You can't go back to her now, like I can't.

  Rey : Give it to me.

  Kylo Ren : The Dark Side is in our nature. Surrender to it.

  Rey : Give it... to me.

  Kylo Ren : The only way you're getting to Exegol... is with me.

  [Kylo destroys the wayfinder] 

  Rey : No!

• Emperor Palpatine : The Jedi apprentice still lives. Perhaps you have betrayed me. Do not make me turn my fleet against you.

  Kylo Ren : I know where she's going. She'll never be a Jedi.

  Emperor Palpatine : Make sure of it. Kill her.

• Rey : Why did the Emperor come for me? Why did he want to kill a child? Tell me.

  Kylo Ren : Because he saw what you would become. You don't just have power. You have his power. You're his granddaughter. You are a Palpatine. My mother was the daughter of Vader. Your father was the son of the Emperor. What Palpatine doesn't know is we're a dyad in the Force, Rey. Two that are one. We'll kill him together and take the throne. You know what you need to do. You know.

  Rey : I do.

• Kylo Ren : 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.

  Rey : You're lying.

  Kylo Ren : I never lied to you. Your parents were no one. They chose to be. To keep you safe.

• Kylo Ren : [through the Force]  Palpatine wants you dead.

  Rey : Serving another master?

  Kylo Ren : No. I have other plans.

  [beat] 

  Kylo Ren : I offered you my hand once. You wanted to take it. Why didn't you?

  Rey : You could've killed me. Why didn't you?

  Kylo Ren : You can't hide, Rey. Not from me.

  Rey : I see through the cracks in your mask. You're haunted. You can't stop seeing what you did to your father.

  Kylo Ren : Do you still count the days since your parents left? Such pain in you. Such anger. I don't wanna have to kill you. I'm going to find you and I'm going to turn you to the Dark Side. When I offer you my hand again... you'll take it.

  Rey : We'll see.

• Kylo Ren : I sense unease about my appearance, General Hux.

  General Hux : [awkwardly]  About the mask? No, sir. Well done.

  General Parnadee : I like it.

• Kylo Ren : You remember more than you say. I've been in your head.

  Rey : I don't want this!

  Kylo Ren : Search your memories.

  Rey : No!

  [she slashes at him with her lightsaber, which he blocks with his own] 

  Kylo Ren : Remember them. See them.

  [she remembers her parents leaving] 

  Kylo Ren : They sold you to protect you.

  Rey : Stop talking.

  Kylo Ren : Rey, I know what happened to them.

• Kylo Ren : Wherever you are... you are hard to find.

  Rey : You're hard to get rid of.

• Kylo Ren : What could you, give me?

  Emperor Palpatine : Everything.

• Kylo Ren : [sharing a Force vision]  Tell me where you are. You don't know the whole story. It was Palpatine who had your parents taken. He was looking for you. But they wouldn't say where you were. So he gave the order.

  Rey's Mother : [flashback]  She isn't on Jakku. She's gone.

  [Rey's father is stabbed in the stomach] 

  Rey's Mother : No!

  Rey : No!

  [as they duel, a column is destroyed and Vader's helmet lands at his feet] 

  Kylo Ren : [realizing where she is]  So that's where you are.

• Kylo Ren : You know why the Emperor's always wanted you dead.

  Rey : No.

  Kylo Ren : I'll come tell you.

  [to a stormtrooper as the vision ends] 

  Kylo Ren : She was in my quarters. Lock down the ship.

• Kylo Ren : We have a spy in our ranks, who just sent a message to the Resistance. Whoever this traitor is won't stop us. With what I've seen on Exegol... the First Order is about to become a true Empire.
