- Kylo Ren: I'll destroy her. And you. And all of it.
- Luke Skywalker: No. Strike me down in anger and I'll always be with you. Just like your father.
- Luke Skywalker: [Yoda appears as a ghost] Master Yoda.
- Yoda: Young Skywalker.
- Luke Skywalker: I'm ending all of this. The tree, the texts, the Jedi. I'm going to burn it all down.
- Yoda: [Yoda summons lightning to burn down the tree and the Jedi texts. He laughs] Ah, Skywalker. Missed you, have I.
- Luke Skywalker: So it is time for the Jedi Order to end.
- Yoda: Time it is for you to look past a pile of old books, hmm?
- Luke Skywalker: The sacred Jedi texts?
- Yoda: Oh, read them, have you? Page-turners they were not. Yes, yes, yes. Wisdom they held, but that library contained nothing that the girl Rey does not already possess. Skywalker, still looking to the horizon. Never here, now, hmm? The need in front of your nose.
- Luke Skywalker: I was weak. Unwise.
- Yoda: Lost Ben Solo you did. Lose Rey we must not.
- Luke Skywalker: I can't be what she needs me to be.
- Yoda: Heeded my words not, did you? Pass on what you have learned. Strength. Mastery. But weakness, folly, failure also. Yes, failure most of all. The greatest teacher, failure is. Luke, we are what they grow beyond. That is the true burden of all masters.
- Kylo Ren: Did you come back to say you forgive me? To save my soul?
- Luke Skywalker: No.
- [they draw their lightsabers and fight]
- Luke Skywalker: I failed you, Ben. I'm sorry.
- Kylo Ren: I'm sure you are! The Resistance is dead, the war is over, and when I kill you, I will have killed the last Jedi!
- Luke Skywalker: Amazing. Every word of what you just said was wrong. The Rebellion is reborn today. The war is just beginning. And I will not be the last Jedi.
- Luke Skywalker: Where are you from?
- Rey: Nowhere.
- Luke Skywalker: No one's from nowhere.
- Rey: Jakku.
- Luke Skywalker: All right, that *is* pretty much nowhere.
- Leia Organa: Hope is like the sun. If you only believe it when you see it you'll never make it through the night.
- Luke Skywalker: What do you know about the force?
- Rey: It's a power that Jedi have that lets them control people and... make things float.
- Luke Skywalker: Impressive. Every word in that sentence was wrong.
- Kylo Ren: The Empire, your parents, the Resistance, the Sith, the Jedi... let the past die. Kill it, if you have to. That's the only way to become what you are meant to be.
- Kylo Ren: Do you know the truth about your parents? Or have you always known? You've just hidden it away. Say it.
- Rey: [in tears] They were nobody.
- Kylo Ren: They were filthy junk traders. Sold you off for drinking money. They're dead in a pauper's grave in the Jakku desert. You come from nothing. You're nothing. But not to me.
- Luke Skywalker: You went straight to the dark.
- Rey: That place was trying to show me something.
- Luke Skywalker: It offered something you needed. And you didn't even try to stop yourself.
- Rey: But I didn't see you. Nothing from you. You've closed yourself off from the Force. Of course you have.
- Luke Skywalker: I've seen this raw strength only once before in Ben Solo. It didn't scare me enough then. It does now.
- Luke Skywalker: Breathe. Just breathe. Now reach out. What do you see?
- Rey: Light. Darkness. A balance.
- Luke Skywalker: It's so much bigger.
- BB-8: [beeping] I've got a bad feeling about this.
- Poe Dameron: Happy beeps here, buddy, come on. We've pulled crazier stunts than this.
- Leia Organa: Just for the record, Commander Dameron, I'm with the droid on this one.
- Poe Dameron: Thank you for your support, General. Happy beeps.
- Luke Skywalker: What do you see?
- Rey: The island. Life. Death and decay, that feeds new life. Warmth. Cold. Peace. Violence.
- Luke Skywalker: And between it all?
- Rey: Balance and energy. A force.
- Luke Skywalker: And inside you?
- Rey: Inside me, that same force.
- Rey: I know this place.
- Luke Skywalker: Built a thousand generations ago to keep these. The original Jedi texts. Just like me, they're the last of the Jedi religion. You've seen this place. You've seen this island.
- Rey: Only in dreams.
- Poe Dameron: [watching Luke facing Kylo Ren] He's doing this for a reason. He's stalling so we can escape.
- Finn: Escape? He's one against an army. We have to help him, we have to fight.
- Poe Dameron: No, no. We are the spark that'll light the fire that'll burn the First Order down.
- Luke Skywalker: Leia, I'm sorry.
- Leia Organa: I know. I know you are. I'm just glad you're here at the end.
- Luke Skywalker: I came to face him, Leia. And I can't save him.
- Leia Organa: I held out hope for so long, but I know my son is gone.
- Luke Skywalker: No one's ever really gone.
- Leia Organa: Wipe that nervous expression off your face, Threepio.
- C-3PO: Oh. Well, I will certainly try, General. Nervous?
- Snoke: Pathetic child. I cannot be betrayed, I cannot be beaten. I see his mind, I see his every intent. Yes. I see him turning the lightsaber to strike true. And now, foolish child. He ignites it, and kills his true enemy!
- Kylo Ren: It's time to let old things die. Snoke... Skywalker... the Sith... the Jedi... the rebels. Rey... I want you to join me. We can rule together and bring a new order to the galaxy.
- Rey: Don't do this Ben. Please don't go this way.
- Kylo Ren: No, no. You're still holding on! Let go! You want to know the truth about your parents or have you always known? You've just hidden it away. You know the truth. Say it.
- [Rey is silent]
- Kylo Ren: Say it.
- Rey: [in tears] They were nobody.
- Kylo Ren: They were filthy junk traders. Sold you off for drinking money. They're dead, in a pauper's grave in a Jakku desert. You had no place in this story. You come from nothing. You're nothing, but not to me. Join me.
- [puts his hand out. Rey stares at him hesitantly in tears]
- Kylo Ren: Please...
- Luke Skywalker: Lesson two. Now that they're extinct, the Jedi are romanticized, deified. But if your strip away the myth and look at their deeds, the legacy of the Jedi is failure. Hypocrisy, hubris.
- Rey: That's not true!
- Luke Skywalker: At the height of their powers, they allowed Darth Sidious to rise, create the Empire, and wipe them out. It was a Jedi Master who was responsible for the training and creation of Darth Vader.
- Rey: And a Jedi who saved him. Yes. Your father was the most hated man in the galaxy. He caused so much death and destruction for many years. But you saw there was conflict inside him. You believed that he wasn't gone. That he could be turned.
- Luke Skywalker: And I became a legend. For many years, there was balance and then I saw... Ben. My nephew with that mighty Skywalker blood. And in my hubris, I thought I could train him, I could pass on my strengths. Han was... Han was about it, but... Leia trusted me with her son. I took him, and a dozen students, and began a training temple. By the time I realized I was no match for the darkness rising in him, it was too late.
- Rey: What happened?
- Luke Skywalker: I went to confront him, and he turned on me. He must've thought I was dead. When I came to, the temple was burning. He had vanished with a handful of my students, and slaughtered the rest. Leia blamed Snoke, but... it was me. I failed. Because I was Luke Skywalker. Jedi Master. A legend.
- Rey: The galaxy may need a legend. I need someone to show me my place in all this. And you didn't fail Kylo. Kylo failed you. I won't.
- Rey: You don't have to do this. I feel the conflict in you. It's tearing you apart. Ben, when we touched hands, I saw your future. Just the shape of it but solid and clear. You will not bow before Snoke. You'll turn. I'll help you.
- Kylo Ren: I saw something too. I know that when the time comes, you'll be the one to turn. You'll stand with me, Rey. I saw who your parents are.
- Poe Dameron: Attention! This is Commander Poe Dameron of the Republic fleet, I have an urgent communique for General Hugs.
- General Hux: This is General Hux of the First Order. The Republic is no more. Your fleet are Rebel scum and war criminals. Tell your precious princess there will be no terms, there will be no surrender...
- Poe Dameron: Hi, I'm holding for General Hugs.
- General Hux: This is Hux. You and your friends are doomed. We will wipe your filth from the galaxy.
- Poe Dameron: Okay. I'll hold.
- General Hux: Hello?
- Poe Dameron: Hello? Yup, I'm still here.
- General Hux: Can he hear me?
- Poe Dameron: Hugs?
- General Hux: [First Order monitor nods at Hux] He can?
- Poe Dameron: With an 'H'? Skinny guy. Kinda pasty.
- General Hux: I can hear you. Can you hear me?
- Poe Dameron: Look, I can't hold forever. If you reach him, tell him Leia has an urgent message for him...
- Captain Peavey: I believe he's tooling with you, sir.
- Poe Dameron: ...about his mother.
- Luke Skywalker: [to R2-D2] Nothing can make me change my mind.
- Leia Organa: [R2-D2 plays Leia's message] Years ago you served my father in the Clone Wars. Now he begs you to help him in his struggle against the Empire...
- Luke Skywalker: [sarcastically] That was a cheap move.
- Snoke: [Rey uses the force to take Kylo's lightsaber] Hold still that fiery spit of hope. You have the spirt of a true Jedi.
- [Rey charges at Snoke with Kylo's lightsaber. Snoke picks Rey up with the force and she lands in front of Kylo. Kylo's lightsaber spins around and stops in front of him]
- Snoke: And because of that you must die.
- Snoke: [Snoke uses the force and turns Rey toward Kylo] My worthy apprentice, son of darkness, heir apparent to Lord Vader, where there was conflict I now sense resolved, where there was weakness, strength. Complete your training and fulfill your destiny.
- Kylo Ren: [Kylo picks up his lightsaber] I know what I have to do.
- Rey: Ben...
- Snoke: You think you can turn him. Pathetic child. I cannot be betrayed. I cannot be beaten. I see his mind. I see his every intent. Yes. I see him turning the lightsaber to strike true.
- [Without Snoke knowing, Kylo uses the force to face Rey's lightsaber toward him]
- Snoke: And now, foolish child, he ignites it and kills his true enemy!
- [Rey's lightsaber ignites and Snoke is cut in half]
- [opening title card]
- Opening Crawl: The FIRST ORDER reigns. Having decimated the peaceful Republic, Supreme Leader Snoke now deploys his merciless legions to seize military control of the galaxy.
- Opening Crawl: Only General Leia Organa's band of RESISTANCE fighters stand against the rising tyranny, certain that Jedi Master Luke Skywalker will return and restore a spark of hope to the fight.
- Opening Crawl: But the Resistance has been exposed. As the First Order speeds toward the rebel base, the brave heroes mount a desperate escape...
- [Chewbacca busts down the door]
- Luke Skywalker: Chewie, what are you doing here?
- [Chewbacca growls]
- Rey: He said you're coming back with us.
- Luke Skywalker: How'd you find me here?
- Rey: Long story, we'll tell you on the Falcon.
- Luke Skywalker: Falcon? Wait. Where's Han?
- Snoke: When I found you, I saw what all masters live to see... Raw, untamed power and beyond that, something truly special. The potential of your bloodline.
