Part 1 of the closing credits

Guest Commentator: Ralph Attanasia

HOLD ON LUKE SKYWALKER'S INCREDIBLE FACE, amazed and conflicted at what he sees, as our MUSIC BUILDS, the promise of an adventure, just beginning...

Guest Commentator: Ralph Attanasia

Rey stares, knowing exactly who it is. But she just stares for what seems like forever. Until he finally TURNS, SLOWLY, to her. Pulls back his hood. …

Built within the rock and foliage of this idyllic island are seemingly endless ANCIENT STONE STEPS. Rey continues to climb them, determined, despite …

The Falcon FLIES through space and BLASTS to LIGHTSPEED.

Guest Commentator: CeCe Pleasants

Rey stands with Leia a beat and then turns to head to the Falcon.

Guest Commentator: CeCe Pleasants

Suddenly R2-D2 PROJECTS A HOLOGRAM! A LARGE NAVIGATIONAL MAP WITH A SPECIFIC MISSING CHUNK!

Guest Commentator: CeCe Pleasants

As BB-8 approaches R2-D2, the long dormant droid suddenly stirs. The droids beep at each other.

Guest Commentator: CeCe Pleasants

Rey walks down the ramp and sees, for the first time, Leia.

Guest Commentator: CeCe Pleasants

The X-wings ROAR OFF, skyward as the MUSIC SOARS, the PLANET IMPLODES -- THE SUNLIGHT IT CONTAINS BURSTS FORTH, and as we get further and further distance from what was Starkiller Base, we witness the REBIRTH OF A SUN. …

Hux stands before SNOKE'S IMAGE. Relative quiet here, but distant SOUNDS OF DESTRUCTION.

Guest Commentator: Meredith Woerner

The earth SHAKES. The earth splits. A gully forms.

Guest Commentator: Meredith Woerner

Rey closes her eyes for a long beat. When Rey opens them, she is centered, fortified, and she POUNDS BACK, SINGLE HANDED SWIPES, hitting Ren's gnarly, spitting saber with incredible FORCE.

Guest Commentator: Meredith …

Amid the BARE WHITE TREES, ONLY TWO LIGHTSABERS -- LUKE'S BLUE AND REN'S YELLOW-RED -- ILLUMINATE the FLURRIES OF SNOW as Rey and Kylo Ren BATTLE HARD.

Guest Commentator: Greg Wyshynski

Finn and Rey make their way into the space, opening a HATCH that allows A BEAM OF PRECIOUS SUNLIGHT to stream down like a spotlight on Han and his son.

Guest Commentator: Greg Wyshynski

Kylo Ren turns onto a FLAT BRIDGE THAT BISECTS the open space.

Guest Commentator: Greg Wyshynski

Guest Commentator: Jenny Jaffe

Han and Chewie divide the explosives.

Guest Commentator: Jenny Jaffe

Chewie takes out the middle one with his Bowcaster. Han and the other two Stormtroopers OPEN FIRE, but Han's aim is true.

Guest Commentator: Jenny Jaffe

Finn turns -- AND SEES REY, CLIMBING OUT FROM INSIDE THE WALL, carefully climbing back up to the main level! He can't believe it!

Guest Commentator: …

A BEEPING from BB-8, riding in the back of his X-wing, and Poe looks out -- can't believe what he's seeing: DOZENS OF TIE FIGHTERS!

Guest Commentator: Jenny Jaffe

At LIGHTSPEED, Poe pilots.

Guest Commentator: Crystal Beth

Tiny by comparison, Rey climbs amid the incredible infrastructure, a drop to infinity beneath her.

Guest Commentator: Crystal Beth

Han and Finn peer around a corner, wary.

Guest Commentator: Crystal Beth

Han, Finn and Chewie cross the terrain.

Flying at LIGHTSPEED. Finn, with Han and Chewie.

Chewie and Finn follow Han's orders as they prepare the Falcon for one more daring run, maybe its last

Guest Commentator: Chris Eliopoulos

All eyes on Finn as he moves around the hologram to a location on the Starkiller Base -- it is ZOOMED IN: A GIANT BLACK HEXAGONAL STRUCTURE.

Guest …

Finn, now a member of the inner circle of the Resistance, is huddled with the group around the MAP TABLE, which displays a WIREFRAME HOLOGRAM of a ROLLING VIEW OF THE SURFACE OF STARKILLER BASE.

Guest Commentator: Matt …

Guest Commentator: Chris Radtke

LARGE GRASS MOUNDS cover HANGARS, beneath the odd, giant trees.

Guest Commentator: Chris Radtke

Chewie MOANS a few words, looks at Han then boards the ship. It is complicated and loving and painful.

Guest Commentator: Chris Radtke

Finally, the transport door opens.

And standing there is LEIA.

Guest Commentator: Dan Telfer

Guest Commentator: John Kovalic

With quiet resignation, Rey watches Finn return to the aliens.

Guest Commentator: Ryan Alexander-Tanner

Finn stands to leave. He offers the gun back to Han.

Guest Commentator: Nikki Siclare

Rey is stunned. Maz, not so much. She crawls back to her chair. She points to some pirates in the corner.

Guest Commentator: Father David Mowry

Finn stops, seeing Maz adjusting her goggles, scrutinizing him -- her eyes get HUGE.

Guest Commentator: Liz Whitaker from Mean Girls Minute

A dark space. Kylo Ren, CLOSE TO CAMERA, addresses someone OFF-CAMERA whom we do not see.

Clearly, BAZINE IS A SPY.

Guest Commentator: Chrysanthe Tan

The door opens. Music. Madness.

Guest Commentator: Chrysanthe Tan

The great, gloomy hold is crowded with EMIGRANTS and their belongings.

Guest commentator: Riley Silverman

JOCASTA NU taps the keyboard and frowns.

DEXTER grins. He puts the dart down between them.

Guest commentator: Kelly Anneken

DEXTER picks up the dart delicately between his puffy fingers and peers at it.

Guest commentator: Kelly Anneken

OBI-WAN comes to a kind of alien diner. On the steamed-up window it says "DEX'S DINER" in alien lettering. He goes inside.

OBI-WAN and ANAKIN look up to see an ARMOURED ROCKET-MAN taking off from a roof high above.

Guest commentator: Steele Saunders

The gun is raised to aim directly at his back, and suddenly OBI-WAN turns fast. His lightsaber flashes. There is a shrill SCREAM and ZAM'S ARM hits the floor.

Guest commentator: Steele Saunders

OBI-WAN heads for the bar. ANAKIN blinks in surprise, then moves into the room, where ALIEN FACES look back at him with hostility, suspicion, and invitation as he moves among the tables.

Guest commentator: Steele Saunders

Ahead, ZAM turns in through a door and disappears. A nightclub sign is flashing over the door.

Guest commentator: Steele Saunders

Just as the dragster is about to nose dive into the ground, ZAM pulls it out, and it slides hard on the pavement in a shower of sparks. ANAKIN goes …

ANAKIN jumps out of the speeder.

Guest commentator: Cassandra Fredrickson

ANAKIN turns up a side street, zooming up several small passageways, then stops, hovering about fifty stories up.

Guest commentator: Jim O'Kane

Huge electrical bolts shoot between the buildings as the speeders pass.

Guest commentator: Scott Carelli

OBI-WAN falls fifty stories, until a speeder drops down next to him, and he manages to grab onto the back end of the speeder and haul himself toward …

When the pilot of the speeder, a scruffy bounty hunter called ZAM WESELL, sees the DROID approach with OBI-WAN hanging on, she pulls a long rifle out …

OBI-WAN sees the DROID outside the window and races straight at it, crashing through the blinds as he goes through the window.

As PADME sleeps, a PROBE DROID approaches outside her window.

Guest commentator: J. Kenji López-Alt

OBI-WAN checks a palm-sized view scanner he has pulled out of his utility belt. It shows a shot of ARTOO by the door, but no sign of PADME on the bed.

The door to the apartment slides open, and OBI-WAN enters.

Guest commentator: J. Kenji López-Alt

OBI-WAN gives ANAKIN a dirty look.

Guest commentator: Tony Consiglio

JAR JAR walks into the corridor, where TWO JEDI are exiting the elevator.

A graceful skyscraper twinkles in the evening light of Coruscant.

Guest commentator: Tony Consiglio

As the JEDI leave the office, PALPATINE continues to pace behind his desk.

YODA and MACE WINDU move to greet the SENATOR, YODA taps AMIDALA with his cane.

Guest commentator: Tony Consiglio

CHANCELLOR PALPATINE sits behind his desk with TWO RED-CLAD ROYAL GUARDS on either side of the door. YODA, PLOT KOON, KI-AD-MUNDI, and MACE WINDU sit across from him.

The DIGNITARIES and PILOTS are hurled to the ground as the starship is destroyed.

The sun glints off the chrome hulls of the sleek Naboo spacecraft as they navigate between the buildings of the capital planet.

This separatist movement has made it difficult for the limited number of Jedi Knights to maintain peace and order in the galaxy.

A long time ago, in a galaxy far, far, away…
