Plot summary

Episode VII, Part III THE FORCE AWAKENS Luke Skywalker has vanished. In his absence, the sinister First Order has risen from the ashes of the Empire and will not rest until the last Jedi has been destroyed. The First Order and the Resistance are in desperate search for a map leading directly to Skywalker that is hidden inside the Resistance droid BB-8. After Finn, a former stormtrooper, escapes the First Order, he crash-lands on Jakku where Rey, a young scavenger, has found BB-8. Rey, Finn, and BB-8 become allies and hijack the Millennium Falcon to escape Jakku and the pursuing First Order. Once in space, however, the three find themselves caught by none other than smugglers Han Solo and Chewbacca, who in turn are being pursued by the Guavian Death Gang for a deal gone wrong. That is, until Han's cargo escapes....
