An interesting fact is that that particular grammatical rule was only devised by a pedantic linguist of the 1800s. His reasoning was that English should follow Latin grammar rules, and in Latin the infinitive form of verbs cannot be split or reorganized, because it is a single word without the preposition.

The only reason it caught any sway was due to this fellow forcing the rule on a prestigious college at Oxford, whose students went on not to question it, and taught it at a few prestigious boarding schools so that the privileged spoke that way after some time.

All of this despite the fact that English is a Germanic language that simply absorbed a fair amount of Franco-Latin vocabulary, and Germanic languages are very friendly towards splitting and rearranging of infinitives and prepositions. In fact, most Germanic languages downright require ending some sentences with a preposition to create the correct verb form.

As such, it sounds to most a natural sentence structure to end a sentence with a preposition, or to boldly split infinitives. So feel free to inform your first form instructor where he may stuff his grammar rules at.

I agree with you. I think when Jod said, " someone better to talk to than another droid", and the droid standing there remained silent, this was a huge foreshadowing in nod.

Then again, the final order is going to need a lot of money to build those death star weapon star destroyers. There may be some sort of twist that the emissary ship turning up signals the First Order generals to turn up, and droid supervisor is a false build up, with Jod and the kids and parents having to stop a massive money transfer.
