First Order has a problem, Armitage Hux is the solution - though solution is a generous word for what he does.
He arrives in the middle of an environmental scandal with a briefcase, a conflict of interest, and no patience for anyone's ego, including Kylo Ren's.
Ren, for his part, has no interest in being managed. What they have in common is more than either of them would care to admit.
What passes between a solicitor and his client is privileged.
What develops between Hux and Ren is considerably harder to define.
