Another juicy morsel from the TFA novel:
Halting, Ren slowly scanned his surroundings. Even though they knew what he was doing, the troopers still marveled at the display. After a long moment of deliberation, he motioned them toward the upper levels.
“They’re here. Find them. Up there.”
The squad immediately went into action, moving off rapidly in the direction he had indicated. Once they were out of sight, Ren turned slowly—and headed downward.
Ben deliberately steered the troops in the wrong direction so he could encounter Han Solo alone. In private. He didn’t want an audience. I can only assume because he didn’t know how the meeting would go.
So juicy!
