I just realized–when that guard catches Rey’s sabre in his whip–well, for one thing, why didn’t she just deactivate her sabre before he got his hand around her throat?–but regardless, when she gets around the guard and pulls her sabre through him, she brings the whip with her, meaning she pulls it through his body, then flings it at the curtain and sets it on fire. That is so badass. And gross. But mostly badass.
