The Book Of Boba Fett Season Finale: What That Post-Credits Scene Means

Here's what's going on at the end of Episode 7.

5 Comments

The first season for Disney+'s newest Star Wars series, The Book of Boba Fett, has come to a close. Did the titular bounty hunter and his rag-tag group of buddies stop the Pyke Syndicate? Well, if you watched the finale, then you know the answer.

However, something else happened during the episode that's important--to be more specific--during the credits of the final episode.

Warning: There are spoilers for Episode 7 of Book of Boba Fett below. Go read something else unless you want to be spoiled/have seen the episode already.

What happened?

So midway through the credits, we see a bacta tank. After the battle in Mos Espa, many viewers first thought is that it could be Boba Fett, Black Krrsantan, or maybe even Cad Bane--who Boba stabbed through the chest.

However, as the camera zooms in on the tank, it's apparent Freetown marshall Cobb Vanth (Timothy Olyphant) is the one recuperating in there. In Episode 6, Vanth was shot and left for dead in the streets of Freetown by the infamous Cad Bane. But it looks like he's survived.

The camera pans up and we see a modder with a scalpel standing there, ready to perform surgery/modding. The modder is played by renowned bassist Thundercat, and this is the same modder that saved Fennec Shand from death in an earlier episode.

What does this mean?

First and foremost, it means we will likely see a lot more of Cobb Vanth in the future. Whether that's in another season of Boba Fett--which primarily takes place on Tatooine--or on Season 3 of The Mandalorian--which takes place on various planets--is yet to be seen.

Additionally, this means that modders are probably going to be featured more in the future of this franchise, which includes seeing more of Thundercat, most likely.

The closing of this show doesn't really lead to a Season 2 storyline though. There are some loose threads here and there, but those could easily be wrapped in a new season of The Mandalorian. At this point in time, Boba Fett has not been renewed for a second season.
