The First Order corners the Resistance over D'Qar in a battle that annihilates much of the freedom-fighter's fleet. Meanwhile, Rey's quest to find Luke Skywalker ends in disappointment when the Jedi Master refuses to join the fight. Luke eventually agrees to train Rey in the ways of the Force, but a strange connection to Kylo Ren and her insistence that he can be redeemed leads to the former scavenger taking a solo trip to Snoke's war ship. Kylo Ren kills his master to save Rey, but refuses to join her. Elsewhere, after the Resistance is tracked through hyperspace, several desperate attempts to shake the First Order followers and one side quest to Canto Bight with Rose Tico and Finn, ends in a final confrontation on Crait. Poe learns what it means to be a leader from General Leia and Vice Admiral Holdo and Luke appears for one last confrontation with his old pupil, the Supreme Leader Kylo Ren.
