IMO, the backstory evolution is looking obvious AF - Last update 7/17

Because she would be a 5 year old female gender Palpatine clone.... (The strategic concept, from Palpatine's POV, is that she was put there in the hopes her Dark Side would take over and poison the school)

He would not recognize her, not at all. No reason for it. Especially since she doesn't know what she is.

Perhaps you got a different impression from my description which caused this question -- I want my topic to be super-clear, so please let me know why you asked this in case there's something I didn't explain properly or something I didn't think to include.

Thanks! You're actually the right person to be error-checking this for me, seriously. We've had our ups and down but you're a smart guy, I know you are.

Question: Are you thinking of my Plagueis/Palpatine "great grandfather" as a genetic link? Because it is not.

From what I understand, Anakin was a nearly unintended consequence of Plagueis and Palpatine attempting to create a new Force-sensitive life form.... Even though they thought it looked successful and their "created son" Anakin did turn evil, at first.

But you skip that generation, and... Luke.

Anyway, there would be no genetic connection between Luke and Rey, only between Palpatine and Rey. No genetic connection between Palpatine and Anakin, obviously, of course.

Maybe that clarifies it for you? This is assuming I have figured out your question (which actually prompted me to add this info to the topic).

I feel like this backstory would TRULY bring the entire 9 part saga together, as JJ promised, and with Lucas helping to write this ending, AND Rian Johnson.... I think these three know what they're doing.

Rian Johnson is still not a very good director, though, and he sucks at logic. I don't like him, but hey, I didn't like JJ before TFA either.

I updated one of these paragraphs, tell me what you think... The genetic part is more important than I was thinking before:

Palpatine in ROTJ was itself a remotely operated clone, controlled in a way that is similar to Kylos connection w Rey in the last movie. And WHO connected Rey to Kylo? Snoke. The power Palpatine uses to control his clones may depend on them being clones, being the same genetic material he is, so thus Snoke AND Rey can both do that, can both control from afar, as they are both Palpatine's genetic material. Together, Snoke can force Rey's inherent power to connect to Kylo, and capture his mind, but only to speak, not to control him. REY is the one being controlled and forced to connect.... Because REY, Palpatine genetics, is being controlled by Snoke, just like Palpatine controlling a clone puppet style.

Maybe Snoke is rogue because he can do this as well as Palpatine can, so Palpatine can't control him. That's why Snoke has power over Rey and why he knows who Rey is from the START.

This is solid stuff, and even the Snoke as Clone element is not my idea, I just included it all in a cohesive theory.

Zero chance Rey is a clone of Palpatine. Look at that guy-- he's Barfarama. How could his clone be a gorgeous woman?

Also, it's just kind of silly, isn't it? Rey a clone? Of Palpatine?

Rey isn't either, so maybe he's correct?
