20 Things You Somehow Missed In Star Wars: Episode IX - The Rise Of Skywalker
15. Rey Was Right About BB-8 Doing The Same Thing She Did...
Not long after showing she possessed the ability to heal other living beings by transferring Force energy from herself to a wounded vexis, Rey tells her little astromech pal BB-8 that he would have no doubt done the same in that position.
Far from being a throwaway compliment from the powerful Force user, though, this actually acts as a subtle piece of foreshadowing.
When the gang eventually find themselves on Ochi's ship on Pasaana, the rolling hero bumps into another small droid.
And after spotting that this diminutive bot was very much deactivated, BB-8 swiftly decided to pump some power into little D-O - voiced by J. J. Abrams in the flick - and bring him back to life, proving that this Resistance legend certainly would offer a bit of his own energy to heal/fix someone when given the chance to.
