‘The Book of Boba Fett’ is finally here and without any guesses, it gives a deeper look into the life of one of the greatest bounty hunters in the ‘Star Wars’ universe. During Season 2 of ‘The Mandalorian’, we saw a glimpse of his character and we knew that this is one character that we need to see and know more of. Disney+ didn’t disappoint and came out with a show on the character.

The first episode of the series lays the perfect foundation for the things to come and introduces us to a situation that has already made everyone a bit worried for the titular character. In the episode, we see Boba Fett (Temuera Morrison) becoming the rules of Tattooine. Everyone has come to him for paying tributes. However, the mayor of Tattooine isn’t thrilled about Fett’s return and doesn’t come to see him.

One of his men gives Boba a tribute on the mayor’s behalf and also lets him know that the mayor only gives him tribute for returning to Tattooine and not for becoming the king. Fennec Shand (Ming-Na Wen) asks him if she should kill him or not? Fett says no and tells her to keep an eye on him. A few moments later, we see him and Fennec going inside a place where the people of Tattooine enjoy. He assured the owner, Garsa Fwip (Jennifer Beals), that her business will continue to flourish in his rule.

As soon as they head out, they are attacked by a group of people who were stacked with weapons and shields. They attack them by surrounding them from everywhere. Boba attacks them as well and takes down a couple of attackers. However, they manage to injure him substantially. While two of the attackers manage to flee, another surviving attacker is later killed by Boba through one of his missiles.

The final moments of the show see Boba being injured and he tells two of his ogre-looking bodyguards to take him to Bacta Pod. Elsewhere, Fennec has captured one of the attackers alive and will now present him to in front of Fett.

Fett has been badly injured and is now inside Bacta Pod, reliving some of the moments of his past that were dangerous, but made him what he is today. But the main question is who tried to kill Fett? Is it the mayor trying to take him down? or there's someone else who wants him dead.
