After Rey wounds Kylo Ren in the forest (during The Force Awakens), she sees that Snoke has abandoned Kylo as his apprentice and is now hunting him down. Rey reluctantly rescues Kylo and brings him on the Falcon, which he promptly breaks during their escape. Stranded in mid-air, they both reach out to their respective camps for help. The race is on to see who is rescued, who is prisoner, and who falls in love.
