BEWARE SPOILERS: The Book Of Boba Fett is here and Fantha Tracks will be offering our own episode guide for your weekly entertainment. Here, we will post every reference, Easter egg and everything named and unnamed per episode along with fun trivia in-between that we have spotted.
Chapter 7: In the Name of Honor
Official summary: Boba Fett and Fennec Shand face an escalating conflict.
Trivia
Cad Bane mentions that Ithorians have 2 stomachs, which is new biological information for this species.
When the X-wing arrives at Peli Motto’s we see one of her pit droids with landing beacons. This real-world equivalent can be seen in A New Hope on Yavin, but also in Star Tours with the signal droids
The dung worms that Grogu gets served as a meal have appeared before in the Episode I: The Phantom Menace video game.
Drash and Skad were named earlier in the end credits, but this is the first time that their names are spoken out loud in an episode.
Various phrases can be heard. Returning are the familiar Bantha fodder, sleemo and ‘Bucket of bolts’ of insult.
Quacta calling the Stifling slime (the equivalent of “the pot calling the kettle black”) was heard earlier in The Mandalorian – “Chapter 16: The Rescue”
New is “A womp hop” which is the equivalent of “a stone’s throw”, using the womp rat.
Cad Bane’s plan to lure Boba Fett out is a classic western duel. This is something that Filoni had planned for The Clone Wars Season 6 (unless it would have been moved to Season 7), but those episodes were never finished. Animatics of this duel between Fett and Bane were later shown at Celebration Orlando in 2017.
The Pyke’s headquarters at Mos Eisley is named to be the Desert Survey Office, which is new.
Another location that gets mentioned that is new are the Obsidian Cliffs of Oba Diah. Not new, but nice to have mentioned, is Coruscant.
The people of Freetown ride on a V-35 Courier landspeeder. Their cannon make the sound of an AT-AT cannon from The Empire Strikes Back.
The Scorpenek droids, as Peli calls them, are a new kind of droid walking turret that are obviously inspired by scorpions. They do have shields like a droideka.
During the fight the Weequay proprietor gets a name: Taanti. Despite that, the end credits do not list that name accordingly.
It has been awhile since we last heard one of them (in The Bad Batch 1×10 – Common Ground), but a Wilhelm Scream is used when the Rancor throws a Pyke away. Another gets eaten like the poor Gamorrean guard we saw in Return of the Jedi.
And then there is the duel at long last. They refer to their The Clone Wars past together before it begins, and as Bane points out, he is faster. This holds true as how their The Clone Wars duel played out, as it had no clear winner. Bane got injured (which is why Fett thinks earlier that he can take the Duro), with a head wound that his updated animation model from The Bad Batch shows. And the only reason Fett walked away from it, was because he wore his helmet, which got the famous dent thanks to Bane. This is why Fett says as much.
The Rancor goes on a rampage in Mos Espa. This brings to mind the Rancor Rampage gameplay mode in the game Kinect Star Wars. In it the player controls a Rancor going on a rampage on various worlds, including Tatooine.
The Rancor climbing the highest building is a nod to King Kong.
On the knife of Fennec we see green blood from the Pyke boss. Sources claim they have yellow blood in Solo, and cite the movie as the one bit of proof. Honestly, it is hard to see if his is the case as the ripped-off arms are shown in bad lightning and Qi’ra cleans her weapons before the colour of the blood can be seen. The meiloorun fruit return as they are offered to Fett, now respected as the daimyo.
There is a slight change in the theme that plays during the end credits. You can now hear “Boba Fett” being chanted.
Don’t forget to stay for the mid-credit scene that plays after the concept art is shown.
