I want to smell dark matter
A long time ago in a galaxy far, far away.
(SPACE. It's dark. A BLACK SHUTTLE (but a different SHADE of black from SPACE) appears against the space. It travels down. We follow it as it lands on a DESERT PLANET even though in reality it would have taken a lot longer than a few seconds for a shuttle to have gone from space to a planet. General Hux steps out. He is standing outside the old Mos Espa Grand Arena where podracing used to take place. The arena has fallen into disrepair. Hux steps inside and gasps at what he sees. Kylo Ren is sitting in his grandfather Anakin's old podracer. An aged Sebulba is sitting next to him in his own podracer. Anakin's old friends Wald and Kitster are standing at the edge of the track. The skeleton of the two-headed podrace announcer is nailed to a wall.)
Hux: What is this foolishness?
Kylo: I need to do everything my grandfather Darth Vader did, starting with beating Sebulba at podracing! Only then will I be able to finish what he started!
Hux: Which is what, exactly?
Kylo: You wouldn't understand! You're not DARK like me.
Hux: I'm pretty dark! I blew up four planets! All you did was kill your dad.
Kylo: But my dad was REALLY REALLY COOL. Now watch me kick Sebulba's ass!
Sebulba: Please, I'm old, I just want to go home to my grandchildren...
Kylo: SILENCE.
(He picks Sebulba up with the Force and spins him around in the air a few times.)
Hux: That's a good trick.
Kylo: Race me or I'll spin you even more!
(The race starts. Kylo Ren stalls his podracer. Hux giggles. Sebulba shoots ahead.)
Sebulba: This is just like old times! Eat my dust, slimo!
(Suddenly a FUCKING HUGE hologram of Supreme Leader Snoke appears. It fills almost the whole arena. Sebulba screams in shock and tries to swerve out of its way. His podracer crashes into some rocks and he DIESin a fiery explosion.)
Kylo: That still counts as a win! Do the dance!
(Wald and Kitster wearily do a victory dance. Wald falls over.)
Wald: Oww, my hip!
Snoke: KNEEL.
(Kylo and Hux quickly kneel in front of the giant hologram.)
Snoke: How goes your training?
Kylo: I totally won the race!
Hux: He cheated!
Kylo: Yeah, so what, I'm evil!
Snoke: ENOUGH.
Kylo: It would be easier if you could teach me in person. It's funny, in all these yerars I've only ever seen your hologram...
Snoke: You can't see me in person for REASONS, okay? But now it is time for you to move onto the next phase. General Hux, is the new SUPER WEAPON ready?
Hux: It will be, My Lord. And it'll make Starkiller Base look like a pile of shite!
Snoke: It better. I have placed a great deal of faith in you, Hux. Don't let me down.
Hux: I will not fail you, dad! I mean, supreme leader!
Snoke: Hmmph!
(The hologram flickers off.)
Kylo: Haha, you called him dad!
Hux: SHUT UP. You're always picking on me!
(Hux shoots Wald and Kitster dead and stomps off. Kylo looks at them sad then does the victory dance when he's sure nobody is looking. He leaves. We then see that there was one other person in the arena, sitting in the stands: a blind, senile, ancient Watto.)
Watto: Did you win the race, Ani? Hello? Anyone...?
