Luke refuses Rey's lightsaber and her plea to return. On Ahch-To he admits he once considered killing his nephew Ben and caused his turn to the dark side. Rey and Kylo find themselves connected through the Force, talking across the galaxy. The First Order tracks the Resistance fleet through hyperspace, Leia is blown into space and survives, and Vice Admiral Holdo takes command, clashing with Poe. Finn and the mechanic Rose Tico, who lost her sister in a bombing run, go to the casino city of Canto Bight to find a codebreaker to stop the tracking, but are betrayed. Rey learns from Kylo that her parents were nobodies who sold her for drink money, and goes to him aboard Snoke's ship, believing she can turn him.
