INT. STARKILLER BASE - DAY

STORMTROOPER: Sir, sensors triggered in hangar 718. We're searching the area.

KYLO REN: She's just beginning to test her powers. The longer it takes to find her, the more dangerous she becomes.

"Good for her." Master Fisto remarks.

"But why though? How much could her power in the Force increase since discovering it?" Anakin asks, a little confused.

"Deeply connected to the Force, I feel she is. Increased since her vision, it has." Yoda replies.

INT. STARKILLER BASE - ATRIUM AREA - DAY

TIGHT ON REY'S FACE as she peers nervously around a corner. Rey runs down a long, glossy hall, taking cover in an alcove, the Trooper Guard's rifle HELD TIGHT.

EXT. LIGHTSPEED SPACE - DAY

The Falcon SCREAMS PAST -

INT. MILLENNIUM FALCON - COCKPIT - DAY

Flying at LIGHTSPEED, Finn, with Han and Chewie.

FINN: How are we getting in?

HAN: Their shields have a fractional refresh rate. Keeps anything traveling slower than lightspeed from getting through.

"Then how are they expecting to get through?" Ahsoka asks in confusion. Anakin shrugs, before his eyes go wide in surprise.

"He wouldn't..." he says.

"Wouldn't what... oh no." Obi-Wan says in worried exasperation. "Why does this idea remind me so much of you Anakin?"

Finn is suddenly filled with dread.

FINN: We're gonna make our landing approach at lightspeed?!

The Jedi blink in stunned surprise, some with their mouths slightly open. Even using the Force it would be hard to determine the correct time to exit hyperspace in that manner. But Han Solo was no Force-sensitive!

"Even I'm not that insane!" Anakin exclaims.

Chewie, thinking it's crazy too, says: YES WE ARE!

HAN: Alright, Chewie, get ready.

Chewie GROANS: he's ready. Han studies the PANEL INDICATORS.

HAN: (CONT'D) And Now!

Chewie and Han hit switches -

The Jedi watch the screen anxiously, worried for the outcome of this. Smashing into the planet is a high probability, even if Anakin was the pilot.

EXT. LIGHTSPEED SPACE/STARKILLER BASE - DAY

The Falcon's ENVIRONMENT SHIFTS INSTANTLY FROM LIGHTSPEED TO PLANET ATMOSPHERE - it's suddenly FLYING 100 FEET ABOVE THE SNOWY, ROCKY GROUND, HEADED FOR A THICK FOREST!

Everyone breathes out a sigh of relief. They were so lucky to have survived that!

"Glad that went successfully." Anakin remarked.

"Before you ask the question, no. You are not doing that Anakin." Obi-Wan says sternly, causing Anakin to frown at him.

"Who said I was going to?" he demands.

Ahsoka rolls her eyes at their banter.

INT. MILLENNIUM FALCON - COCKPIT - DAY

CHEWIE GROANS:

HAN: I AM PULLING UP!

EXT. STARKILLER BASE - DAY

But the Falcon has no time - it PLOWS through the trees! It then RISES -
