Luke and Lando's last big adventure wasn't just trying to capture Palpatine's last Jedi hunter Ochi to find out where he was getting his missions from It was also to find out what that last mission *was*

He probably did find out that Ochi murdered Palpatine's son after trying and failing to find Palpatine's secret granddaughter Possibly considered extending his adventure to finding her himself before thinking better of it "I'm not going to do that to another child"

Think about it, he decides to give up, let the story play out without him, retire alone and in obscurity And then the story comes to him Out of nowhere, Palpatine's Secret Master Plan that he'd given up on figuring out and decided didn't exist, just shows up at his doorstep

All of those years of searching and worrying and speculating and the answer just falls into his lap Palpatine's great secret weapon with which he will undo his defeat from beyond the grave is *right here* and she's demanding that he train her and become her role model

It must feel like the Force is taunting him right in his face

That same hesitation he had with Ben Solo is now washing back over him like a tidal wave "Well what the fuck do I do NOW" Is all of this Palpatine's last sick joke, to groom the last Skywalker into a boytoy for his own devil spawn and make them kiss and have Sith babies

He can't kill her, he doesn't trust himself to teach her, the best he can do is what he does do for much of the movie, which is deliberately waste her time and try to convince her not to seek power at all

It really does give some extra oomph to his look of horror and rage when he senses Rey communing with the buried Sith temple "It offered you something you needed, and you didn't even hesitate At the first opportunity you went straight to the darkness"

And, like, he literally explodes when he sees Rey and Kylo Force-Skyping Which may not just be fear for Rey but anger at *Kylo* "So THIS was the explanation the whole time, Ben? You were driven to evil because you have a perverted kink for Palpatines?!"

(The thing where Rey and Ben are powered by their eternal True Love Bond is extremely teenage Tumblr but whatever, it's canon)

Ha, that's the other thing When he's going to burn the Sacred Texts It's not just because of the Texts themselves It's because he was making marginal notes in the Texts to try to finish his research and figure out where the lost Sith homeworld is

The very last thing he wants Rey to stumble upon and read
