    • He should be hastily tidying his room so Rey doesn't see anything embarrassing.
  • Rey is still all emotion: she wants revenge against the guy who killed her new father figure, where is Kylo is a big nerd about the specifics of the call and trying to figure out how it works.
    • You might think it'd be the opposite where the evil guy would be all passion and emotion and the good guy would be dispassionate and analytical.
    • Rey is in the moment so she's quicker on the draw.
  • Referenced: Guys named "Joe E.-" or "Joey-"something.
    • Pete thinks the anesthesia droid should sound like Ed Wynn (Uncle Albert in Mary Poppins).
    • Shout-out to Joe Dator and his Jack Benny [impression].
  • Luke on Ahch-to is what Mark Hamill's character in Corvette Summer would have eventually turned into.

    • Lucas basically in his bathrobe, he's essentially the Dude.
  • Kylo knows that Luke is there with her, can he see him or does he just sense that Rey can see him?
    • Does the audio splice imply that Kylo can hear Rey's surrounding but not see them?
