Streaming service Disney+ releases the sixth episode of Jon Favreau’s The Book Of Boba Fett, a live-action TV series set in the Star Wars universe, starring Temuera Morrison and Ming-Na Wen. Pedro Pascal, Rosario Dawson, and Timothy Olyphant reprise their roles from sister Star Wars series The Mandalorian. 
Marshall Cobb Vanth interrupts a Pyke spice exchange near Mos Pelgo; when three of the four Pykes try to draw down on him, he drops them where they stand, and sends the surviving Pyke home – without his spice shipment – to tell the syndicate to stay out of Mos Pelgo.
The Mandalorian, in his new fighter, visits the planet where Jedi Master Luke Skywalker already has a school for new Jedi under construction. Luke is already attempting to teach Grogu the ways of the Force, and Ahsoka is there as well, seemingly to dissuade the Mandalorian from seeing Grogu. She offers to deliver the gift of Grogu’s armor, but warns that seeing the Mandalorian in person will sabotage Grogu’s immersion in the Jedi tradition of detachment. The Mandalorian reluctantly allows Ahsoka to deliver the armor and leaves without Grogu seeing him. On Tatooine, he sits in on a briefing at Fett’s palace, learning that Fett lacks any kind of army for the coming conflict with the Pykes. The Mandalorian goes to Mos Pelgo – renamed Freetown by its citizens – to recruit Vanth and his townsfolk into helping rid Tatooine of the Pyke scourge. But after the Mandalorian leaves, another visitor walks into Freetown to deliver a very different message to Vanth from the Pykes.

Notes: Grogu’s flashback to the purge of the Jedi Temple does not include even so much as a glimpse of who got him to safety. (Interestingly enough, it places him at the Temple at the same time that Reva and her fellow padawans were trying to escape in flashbacks seen in Obi-Wan Kenobi.) In addition to playing Cobb Vanth’s short-lived deputy, J.J. Dashnaw is also the series’ stunt coordinator. This marks the first appearance of Cad Bane in live action Star Wars after many appearances in The Clone Wars animated series. Mark Hamill’s face and voice are synthesized here, though he was on set to provide reference performances. Max Rebo picked a very lucky night not to be sitting in on keyboards at Garsa’s.
