So when did Palpatine have a son?
If my calculations are right it would have been right after the events of Episode III which is just disgusting.
shareIt's a clone. So it's his "son" in the sense Boba was Jango's son....

Don't worry. They'll explain all stuff in future books/comics! (books that 99% of people don't read anyways)
There's no need to just simply explain all that stuff in the movie itself (*sarcasm).
Just listen to the audiobooks. Star Wars ones are closer to theatre plays than audiobook reads anyway.
shareTo think the excellent Expanded Universe was overwritten for this baloney, so yeah, it was probably a clone. Which means Rey is offspring of a clone and his wife.
The question is why on earth would Palpatine's cloned son not support his own father, especially with a thousand XSD's under construction.
Good question
shareI guess it will be explained in the next Disney Star Wars movie which nobody will ever see.
shareBut dont you understand, Rey wanted him not to support his father so he doesnt. Rey gets what she wants and she doesnt have to put any effort for it.
shareAny information on whether Palpatine's son / clone was a cool guy growing up? He must have had some jealousy issues growing up that his dad spent all his time with Uncle Darth rather than playing with him.
shareold people need love too :-)
shareIt's not when it's WHY would a Sith Lord adopt a CLONE of himself as a son, dies a horrible death by his own lighting and thrown into the reactor of the Death Star by his only apprentice AND THEN comes back to life in a CLONED body and decides to kill his adopted CLONE SON because he didn't have any of that Sith mojo !
And then DIED from his own lighting AGAIN !!!
