Good episode. However, in regards to this episode, you can't blame Boba Fett fans being like Han Solo during his rescue at the beginning of ROTJ: "Boba Fett? Boba Fett?! Where?!"

Once again surprised at how brutal Disney has let this show be

the scene of him slicing the dude in half then leaving with his head in a bag is up there among most violent Star Wars things

Plenty of fun fan service too with the Naboo starfighter (wizard lmao), the darksaber duel with a Viszla, Mando flying through what I think was the Episode 1 podracer course, and probably a fuel other things.

BD droid from Fallen Order and a metric fuckton of Clone Wars/Rebels Mandalorian references too.

I still don't understand how the tracking fobs work.
Do people have a chip inside them?
Is it detecting their DNA?

...or a brief interlude between "set up" and "shit's goin down".
Favreau and Rodriguez are likely using Mando as a vector for a long "Mandalorians" proto-anthology. May see a "Bo-Katan's Gang" spinoff after the next Mando season.

It tracks their chain code, which is essentially a series of biometric details that serve as a unique ID. Essentially it'd be like if your SSN was based on values of your internal organ processes. A tool that can detect life signs would be able to isolate the information and match it to a chain code. Apparently it's only short-range, though.

The Empire was the one who implemented chain codes, and the NR just kept on using them, probably because of the convenience.

They can apparently track DNA through a dozen light-years in the cold vacuum of space, but they can't find the last few Jedi or the Rebel's secret base.

I dislike the episodic structure and would have preferred longer segments to tell the story that needed to be told for each episode. Mandalorian does a much better job of wrapping each episode up at the end, and making a clean break onto the next one. TBoB is just inching along 2 or 3 stories at once. It's like pausing a 3 hour long movie after 40 minutes, and then coming back the next day and watching another 40 minutes, and then doing it again the day after that. Bleh. Im tempted to wait until the finale to finish.

Really needed to spend more time with those Tuskens.....

Mando/Fett is milking the exact intersection of "my mom bought me all the Starwars toys" and "I hate Starwars now!"

Favreau is right there with us.

This was basically a Mando episode, which is alright by me because I like Mando more than what they've done with Boba.

Boba = what we've wanted since 1983
Mando = hold on, is he actually a terrorist?

Strange how that works.

When the Mandolorian first aired, I was like, "why didn't they do Boba Fett if they're doing a bounty hunter show?" Now we have Fett and I'm like, "when can we get back to Mando?"

Boba Fett minus Boba Fett.

The point of Mando/Fett may be Din losing his religion.

I really liked the episode. I actually dig the N1; it was like you and your friend finding a beat-up old classic Mustang and restoring it together. And any time the writers want to attempt to validate the prequels by taking old things from them and making them cool now, I'll give a thumbs up for the effort at least. As for its long-term viability (assuming it doesn't get blown up for story reasons), it's small enough that I could see Mando jury-rigging some sort of exterior carrying attachment to his future Razor Crest replacement.

It looked like chain links. Maybe the Armourer forged him a little mithril shirt?
