Plot

Boba Fett plans to maintain Jabba the Hutt's empire. A water-monger named Lortha Peel asks Fett to punish a gang of cyborgs stealing his water in Mos Espa, claiming that the citizens do not respect him yet. Upon seeing that the gang has no work, Fett employs the cyborgs as enforcers while paying Peel. In the bacta, Fett recalls when he sought the toll from the Pykes. On his return to the Tusken camp, he found the tribe destroyed by the Nikto gang. In the present, Fett is attacked by Krrsantan, but the Wookiee is held off and captured in the basement by his guards. The Twins then arrive, bringing a rancor as a gift and promising to leave Tatooine because they were misled by Mayor Shaiz. After releasing Krrsantan, Fett enlists the rancor keeper to train the beast. Fett, Shand, and the cyborg guards go to Mos Espa to question Shaiz, but the mayor is absent and his majordomo flees. A speeder chase ensues and the cyborgs corner the majordomo, who asserts that Shaiz is working with the Pykes. One of the cyborgs reports that more Pykes are arriving in Mos Espa, and Fett decides to prepare for war.
