COT: Completing one’s training is a theme appearing multiple times in the Star Wars Story. Leaving training early (even to help one’s friends) leaves the jedi apprentice vulnerable to the pull of the dark side. During our corona-virus-induced time at home, consider what training (or character development) you now have time to complete. And beware the dark side.
