Josiah_Is_Back 01/11/21 11:01:27 PM #1:	When Han was about to be carbon frozen, Boba Fett asked Vader about if Han died, because Han was worth a lot to Fett. Vader responded: "The Empire will compensate you if he dies." True? Yes, the Empire would have compensated Boba Fett No, the Empire would not have compensated Boba Fett When Han was about to be carbon frozen, Boba Fett asked Vader about if Han died, because Han was worth a lot to Fett. Vader responded: "The Empire will compensate you if he dies." True? - Results (38 votes) Yes, the Empire would have compensated Boba Fett 60.53% (23 votes) 23 No, the Empire would not have compensated Boba Fett 39.47% (15 votes) 15 I say yes. Vader was ruthless, but he must have realized the impracticality of not compensating Boba Fett if Han had died. Any bounty hunter would not have any trust in the Empire, so it would be much more difficult for Vader and the Emperor to secure the services of a bounty hunter. I look at this as a similar situation to The Phantom Menace, when Qui-Gon Jinn threatens to take the issue with Watto to Jabba the Hutt. The Hutts couldn't care less about the specific bet, only the fact that Watto was trying to renege on it. You gotta make sure people keep up their end of the bargain. <cite>Josiah_Is_Back posted [p:949403357] in Would the ...

Who knows? Vader does whatever the Hell he wants throughout the films. It's not impossible to imagine him saying "Unfortunately, Solo did not survive.

It's not impossible to imagine him saying "Unfortunately, Solo did not survive. You will receive no compensation... unless you feel you're being treaty unfairly...?" as a veiled threat. My point is that would serve no purpose and Vader never did things on a whim. He was either provoked (killing his officers) or there was an advantage behind it (betraying Lando.) There's no real reason to think he'd go back on his deal since there's nothing in it for the Empire to do so. <cite>lolife67 posted [p:949403771] in Would the ...
