The much-anticipated credit scene in 'The Book of Boba Fett' doesn't disappoint. While it doesn't exactly signal a season 2, it lives up to the 'No good guys dying' as it shows Marshal Cobb Vanth (Timothy Olyphant) is alive and placed in Boba's Bacta tank. In the previous episode, it was shown that Cad Bane shot Vanth who falls to the ground clutching his arm. Safe to say that with a mod expert working on him while he recovers suggests that we might see the Marshal with a cybernetic arm.

Vanth made an appearance in 'The Mandalorian' Season 2 and again in Episode 6 of 'The Book of Boba Fett'. He's the leader of Free Town and manages to keep it clean without the spice trade. When approached by Din Djarin/Mando (Pedro Pascal) to help Boba in taking down the Pyke Syndicate, he agrees only to be halted by Bane. The first half of the episode reveals that "he was gunned down in cold blood" but eventually shows that Vanth managed to pull through.

This will be the second character in the spin-off that Boba has rescued other than Fennec Shand (Ming-Na Wen) when he finds her shot and unconscious. Episode 4 reveals that Boba was the one who found her near-dead in the desert and he rescues her while also nursing her back to health. The duo team up to retrieve his ship and take down the guards. Not just does this prove that they're efficient as a team, but it also shows the start of a partnership and friendship.

With Vanth being rescued, the people of Free Town no have their mayor back and Boba has an ally. However, fans has mixed response to the credits scene. "Really enjoyed the #TheBookOfBobaFett finale, Boba was shown to be the proper badass we all known him as. There is one scene near the end however that I really disliked and felt it was unnecessary. The post credits was also pretty disappointing, like u couldve guessed that easily," one of the fans remarked.

"Also, I’m really glad that THAT character is still alive and will be receiving a mod upgrade soon. I’m beginning to wonder… will all Disney+ Star Wars TV shows end with a post-credits scene now, borrowing from the MCU’s playbook? #TheBookOfBobaFett #BookOfBobaFett #StarWars. "I feel like if they delivered something big in the Post Credits scene or set something up for the future after the culmination of the storyline, it would have hit harder. As it stands, I'm kind of left like... #TheBookOfBobaFett"

'The Book of Boba Fett' is available for streaming on Disney+
