[QUOTE="Umbran, post: 6787781, member: 177"] It is starting to make a great deal of sense to me, for Rey - in the flashback triggered by Luke's lightsaber, we have a moment with Rey as a child, watching the ship (presumably with her family) take off. There is a hand on her arm holding her back, and a voice - I'm pretty darned sure that voice is Max Von Sydow. Why would the same person have a map to Luke *and* have custody of Rey? Finn has been "conditioned" so perhaps he'd forgotten his past. We would want some level of separation introduced - there's no way Snoke would allow a former Jedi student to be just let in as a Stormtrooper - he'd have the child killed, or take him for training himself. Finn has to be picked up for stormtrooper training without Snoke knowing who he actually is... Like, maybe if Phasma found him and brought him in? Because that's got the right Soap Opera flavor... I'd be just as happy to find that he's just force sensitive, but was never a Jedi student - that'd be enough for him to break conditioning in the face of a combat and mass murder, which he'd feel more intensely than those who are not sensitive. I mean, such people that aren't Skywalker blood have to pop up from time to time for Luke to have any other apprentices, right? [/QUOTE]
