Yeah - I didn’t get into Finn + Rey’s arcs, but I think they were also quite well executed in terms of taking them from where they were at the end of the previous movie (Finn never wanted to be a hero, he just wanted to escape a death cult; Rey being hyper-fixated on finding her “place” in the universe), and the…

In the comics he had a chair that could travel through time.  So I’m guessing that is what he wants.  Or a chair that could travel through the multiverse.
