Quotes 

• Fennec Shand : [Fett frees Krrsantan from his imprisonment]  You sure that was a good idea?

  Boba Fett : Either that or kill him.

  Fennec Shand : Do you believe what the Hutts said?

  Boba Fett : I have no reason to believe them. They would benefit from their enemies fighting one another.

  Fennec Shand : I'll arrange a meeting with the Mayor.

  [glancing at the Twins' tribute to him, a new rancor] 

  Fennec Shand : It's quite the gift.

• Fennec Shand : You're the head of a family. You should enjoy the trappings.

  Boba Fett : I need to respond. Everyone is watching. Waiting for me to make the next move.

  Fennec Shand : Have some food.

  Boba Fett : I have to send a message.

  Fennec Shand : You already did. They sent Krrsantan to kill you. And now he's locked up in your dungeon. I say... you wait for them to show their hand.

  Boba Fett : These are Hutts. Waiting will only give them another opportunity so strike again.

• 8D8 : After the sail barge disaster, there was a power vacuum. Bib Fortuna assumed Jabba's mantle. Under Master Bib's watchful eye, Mos Espa was divided amongst three families. The Trandoshans took the city center. The Aqualish, the Worker's District here. And the Klatooinians, the starport and upper sprawl. Master Bib did not have the power of Jabba, so he relied on uneasy alliances to preserve his tribute and title. All of this while lining the pockets of Mayor Mok Shaiz.

  Boba Fett : Where does that leave us now?

  8D8 : Everyone is waiting to see what kind of leader you are.

  Boba Fett : And the assassins?

  Fennec Shand : Mayor has no power. Somebody else is behind that play.

  Boba Fett : The Hutts.

  Fennec Shand : Could be. You want me to ask around?

  Boba Fett : Would they know if you did?

  Fennec Shand : We should assume so.

• Fennec Shand : Are you sure?

  Skad : I know a Pyke when I see one.

  Boba Fett : How many?

  Skad : I saw a dozen, at least.

  Fennec Shand : They arrived on the starliner.

  Boba Fett : Good work. Keep an eye on them.

  [realizing his gaffe] 

  Boba Fett : Sorry, it's an expression.

  Skad : You don't have to be sorry, mate. I paid a lot for this. I'm proud of my eye.

  Fennec Shand : Let us know what you see.

  [ending the transmission] 

  Fennec Shand : These are just a first wave. They're going to war.

  Boba Fett : Then we will be ready.

• Boba Fett : We're here to see the Mayor. We have a few questions for him.

  Mok Shaiz's Majordomo : Yes, indeed, uh... unfortunately, Mayor Mok Shaiz's, uh, schedule is a bit complicated, un... unfortunately, as I recall.

  Fennec Shand : If you wish to continue breathing, I advise you to weigh your next words carefully.

  Mok Shaiz's Majordomo : [she reveals her blaster in its holster]  Hmm... mm-hmm. Um... actually, I may be able to rearrange some of the appointments that aren't as time-sensitive as yours. Uh, so if you'll excuse me, I'll see what I'm able to do.

  Boba Fett : [as he leaves]  That was a bit heavy-handed, wasn't it?

  Fennec Shand : Do you want the appointment or not?

  Boba Fett : [the door closes and a control pad on the wall beeps]  Did he just lock the door?
