For all the ardent fans of 'Star Wars', who stayed up late to catch 'The Book of Boba Fett' Episode 5, they were handsomely rewarded with a full Mandalorian chapter. 'Return of the Mandalorian' sees Pedro Pascal's Din Djarin return to Tatooine to help Boba Fett (Temuera Morrison), but not before he has a few pitstops to make — one of them is to see his lil friend, Grogu. The chapter was all action and filled with Easter eggs as it showed what Mando was up to after defeating Moff Gideon and acquiring the Dark Saber.

Twitter exploded with excitement. "Really can't process this last episode. Easily the most hype I've been from start to finish. The Mando S2 finale doesn't count because we knew it was gonna be a banger. This one was a surprise and I wasn't ready. WIZARD. #BookofBobaFett," one fo the fans wrote. "This episode was simultaneously amazing and disappointing purely because it was set up for Mando s3 instead of mainly being Boba Fett," another wrote.

"great episode, love the side quest episode good to see what mando has been doing since season 2 and before he meets up with boba again #BookofBobaFett #Mandalorian #StarWars #BryceDallasHoward," one of the comments read. "But also I suspect that boba will play a big role in Mando season 3 and he did play a big role in season 2. From now on I will view Mando,Boba,Ahsoka as one big story and not as individual shows," another opined.

"Tonight's episode of The Book of Boba was fucking fantastic! Sure it was more a Mando episode, but damn the feels seeing a Naboo Starfighter + Mando's enjoyment of the craft after seeing what she could do! Such a beautiful ship, & boy was she fast. So Wizard! Can't wait for more!" a comment read. "Bryce Dallas Howard directed this week's #TheBookOfBobaFett chapter. That's all you need to know. (Yes, this week was a great episode, and she's 3/3 of my favorite episodes of Mando/Boba Fett so far.)" a fan remarked.
