Star Wars: Episode VIII - Predicting The Entire Plot In 11 Steps
2. Luke & Rey Face Off Against Kylo Ren & Supreme Leader Snoke; Luke Reveals That He Is Rey's Father
Luke and Rey come face to face with Kylo Ren and Supreme Leader Snoke; the emotion in the air is unrivalled. "Go, Rey," Luke tells his pupil. "You're not ready for this." But as soon as he utters these words, they both know that she, too, must fight. Cue an incredible lightsaber battle to end all lightsaber battles (Luke uses both his blue and green lightsabers to fight) as the four characters face off against one another. Eventually, Luke manages to defeat Supreme Leader Snoke, who quickly escapes, wounded, leaving Kylo Ren to fight alone. Rey and Kylo Ren are soon locked in a solo confrontation, and Rey manages to get a hit on her opponent, cutting his mask from his face. "Face me, cousin!" Ren shouts. "Or did he not tell you truth? Did he not tell you that we were of the same blood?" Rey turns to Luke. "What... what he is talking about? Is it true?" Luke sadly laments: "Yes, Rey. I am your father." At that moment, the remaining members of the Knights of Ren emerge. They ignite red lightsabers. "He lied to you, Rey Skywalker," Kylo Ren cackles. "And what about me? What did I ever do but try to tell you the truth? I tried to free you from this... this... traitor!" Luke, overwhelmed with rage, attacks Ren. A huge battle commences, and Rey and Luke are forced to face off against both Kylo and the Knights of Ren at the same time. Just when all hope seems lost, the Millennium Falcon, piloted by Poe, Finn, Chewbacca, Lando and Lando's daughter, rises up and blasts a few of the Knights into oblivion. Kylo and the surviving members are forced to flee. Luke boards the ship, but Rey disappears.
