But then again, Elizabeth is a woman Rey has a lot of respect for. She'll be able to keep an eye on Credence even if she doesn't have the same sort of presence Alfie does.
Did.
"If that doesn't work I teach you how the things in this kitchen operate, if you ever wanted to make something here."
"I wouldn't want to take food meant for someone else," is his predictable

It honestly wouldn't have done - at the very least, it would have taken an embarrassingly long time. Gift-giving is an utterly alien concept to him. But since she's suggested it, he's very pleased with the idea.
"Oh - oh, yes. I could. That's a very good idea, miss, thank you."

Well. He knows how to make limited ingredients stretch as far as they possibly can and still be edible, but the underlying mechanics are all the same.
