After the Pyke Syndicate arrived to claim Tatooine for themselves (mainly to run their drug \u201cspice\u201d through the area) Boba cut a deal with other crime families, making them agree to remain neutral and not interfere as he battled the Pykes.<\/p>\n<p>However, did this work in Fett\u2019s favour?<\/p>\n<p><strong>**Spoilers for The Book of Boba Fett episode 7**<\/strong><\/p> <h2>The Book of Boba Fett ending explained<\/h2>\n<p>Unfortunately, when the time came they reneged on the agreement, attacking Boba\u2019s forces and murdering his remaining Gamorrean guards. Fennec (Ming-Na Wen) rushed off to try and take out the Pyke leadership, leaving Boba (Temuera Morrison) with just Din Djarin (Pedro Pascal), his mod biker gang and Krrsantan the Wookiee up against the Pykes, the other crime lords and legendary bounty hunter Cad Bane \u2013 not exactly fair odds.<\/p>\n<p>However, after a few clashes, the odds were evened out a bit as the people of Freetown arrived to help. In the previous episode, Djarin had tried to recruit them via their marshall Cobb Vanth (Timothy Olyphant), only for Bane to arrive and shoot Vanth as a warning. Now, the Freetowners were out for revenge. The town was saved!<\/p>\n<p>Oh no, wait, the town is doomed again. Any sense of victory was short-lived when the Pykes unleashed two massive droids with forcefields who attacked Boba\u2019s forces, sending them into hiding as they were unable to pierce the shields. Djarin managed to get some help from his young ward Grogu and Peli Motto (Amy Sedaris) who arrived in the midst of battle, while Boba\u2019s solution was to ride his pet rancor into the fray \u2013 possible due to the special bond he developed with it in an earlier episode.<\/p>\n<div class=\"&quot;image-handler__container\" image-handler__container--aspect=\"\" style=\"&quot;padding-bottom:\" calc=\"\"> <picture><source media=\"&quot;(max-width:\" data-srcset=\"&quot;https:\/\/images.immediate.co.uk\/production\/volatile\/sites\/3\/2022\/02\/Book-of-Boba-Fett-finale-c15f37e.jpg?webp=true&amp;quality=90&amp;resize=299%2C199,\" https:=\"\" type=\"&quot;image\/webp&quot;\"><source media=\"&quot;(max-width:\" data-srcset=\"&quot;https:\/\/images.immediate.co.uk\/production\/volatile\/sites\/3\/2022\/02\/Book-of-Boba-Fett-finale-c15f37e.jpg?quality=90&amp;resize=299%2C199,\" https:=\"\" type=\"&quot;image\/jpeg&quot;\"><source media=\"&quot;(max-width:\" data-srcset=\"&quot;https:\/\/images.immediate.co.uk\/production\/volatile\/sites\/3\/2022\/02\/Book-of-Boba-Fett-finale-c15f37e.jpg?webp=true&amp;quality=90&amp;resize=354%2C236,\" https:=\"\" type=\"&quot;image\/webp&quot;\"><source media=\"&quot;(max-width:\" data-srcset=\"&quot;https:\/\/images.immediate.co.uk\/production\/volatile\/sites\/3\/2022\/02\/Book-of-Boba-Fett-finale-c15f37e.jpg?quality=90&amp;resize=354%2C236,\" https:=\"\" type=\"&quot;image\/jpeg&quot;\"><source media=\"&quot;(max-width:\" data-srcset=\"&quot;https:\/\/images.immediate.co.uk\/production\/volatile\/sites\/3\/2022\/02\/Book-of-Boba-Fett-finale-c15f37e.jpg?webp=true&amp;quality=90&amp;resize=404%2C269&quot;\" type=\"&quot;image\/webp&quot;\"><source media=\"&quot;(max-width:\" data-srcset=\"&quot;https:\/\/images.immediate.co.uk\/production\/volatile\/sites\/3\/2022\/02\/Book-of-Boba-Fett-finale-c15f37e.jpg?quality=90&amp;resize=404%2C269&quot;\" type=\"&quot;image\/jpeg&quot;\"><source media=\"&quot;(max-width:\" data-srcset=\"&quot;https:\/\/images.immediate.co.uk\/production\/volatile\/sites\/3\/2022\/02\/Book-of-Boba-Fett-finale-c15f37e.jpg?webp=true&amp;quality=90&amp;resize=554%2C369&quot;\" type=\"&quot;image\/webp&quot;\"><source media=\"&quot;(max-width:\" data-srcset=\"&quot;https:\/\/images.immediate.co.uk\/production\/volatile\/sites\/3\/2022\/02\/Book-of-Boba-Fett-finale-c15f37e.jpg?quality=90&amp;resize=554%2C369&quot;\" type=\"&quot;image\/jpeg&quot;\"><source media=\"&quot;(min-width:\" data-srcset=\"&quot;https:\/\/images.immediate.co.uk\/production\/volatile\/sites\/3\/2022\/02\/Book-of-Boba-Fett-finale-c15f37e.jpg?webp=true&amp;quality=90&amp;resize=620%2C413&quot;\" type=\"&quot;image\/webp&quot;\"><source media=\"&quot;(min-width:\" data-srcset=\"&quot;https:\/\/images.immediate.co.uk\/production\/volatile\/sites\/3\/2022\/02\/Book-of-Boba-Fett-finale-c15f37e.jpg?quality=90&amp;resize=620%2C413&quot;\" type=\"&quot;image\/jpeg&quot;\"><source media=\"&quot;(min-width:\" data-srcset=\"&quot;https:\/\/images.immediate.co.uk\/production\/volatile\/sites\/3\/2022\/02\/Book-of-Boba-Fett-finale-c15f37e.jpg?webp=true&amp;quality=90&amp;resize=407%2C271&quot;\" type=\"&quot;image\/webp&quot;\"><source media=\"&quot;(min-width:\" data-srcset=\"&quot;https:\/\/images.immediate.co.uk\/production\/volatile\/sites\/3\/2022\/02\/Book-of-Boba-Fett-finale-c15f37e.jpg?quality=90&amp;resize=407%2C271&quot;\" type=\"&quot;image\/jpeg&quot;\"><source media=\"&quot;(min-width:\" data-srcset=\"&quot;https:\/\/images.immediate.co.uk\/production\/volatile\/sites\/3\/2022\/02\/Book-of-Boba-Fett-finale-c15f37e.jpg?webp=true&amp;quality=90&amp;resize=555%2C370&quot;\" type=\"&quot;image\/webp&quot;\"><source media=\"&quot;(min-width:\" data-srcset=\"&quot;https:\/\/images.immediate.co.uk\/production\/volatile\/sites\/3\/2022\/02\/Book-of-Boba-Fett-finale-c15f37e.jpg?quality=90&amp;resize=555%2C370&quot;\" type=\"&quot;image\/jpeg&quot;\"><img class=\"&quot;wp-image-1581456\" align=\"\" size-landscape_thumbnail=\"\" image-handler__image=\"\" image-handler__image--aspect=\"\" no-wrap=\"\" js-lazyload=\"\" data-src=\"&quot;https:\/\/images.immediate.co.uk\/production\/volatile\/sites\/3\/2022\/02\/Book-of-Boba-Fett-finale-c15f37e.jpg?quality=90&amp;resize=620%2C413&quot;\" width=\"&quot;620&quot;\" height=\"&quot;413&quot;\" alt=\"&quot;The\" book=\"\" of=\"\" boba=\"\" fett=\"\" title=\"&quot;THE\"\/><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/picture><\/div><div class=\"&quot;caption-hold&quot;\"><figcaption class=\"&quot;wp-caption-text&quot;\"><span class=\"&quot;caption-copy&quot;\"><i class=\"&quot;icon-arrow\" icon-camera-circle=\"\"\/> (L-R): Boba Fett (Temuera Morrison) and Fennec Shand (Ming-Na Wen) in Lucasfilm\u2019s THE BOOK OF BOBA FETT, exclusively on Disney+. \u00a9 2022 Lucasfilm Ltd. &amp; \u2122.

In a duel, Bane appeared to best Boba, and reflected on their shared history (as seen in The Clone Wars animation, Bane was something of a mentor to the younger Boba until they had a falling out). But Boba disputed Bane\u2019s suggestion that caring for others was a weakness, channeling what he\u2019d learned from his Tusken Raider friends to finally put Cad Bane to rest (well, probably \u2013 was it us or was his chest light still blinking?)<\/p>\n<p>But the rancor was now running wild after being attacked and frightened by Bane. Din Djarin\u2019s attempts to subdue it were unsuccessful, until Grogu leaned on the Force and managed to send it to sleep without harm. Elsewhere, Fennec popped up again to finally make good on her promise and off the remaining crime leaders \u2013 even though by this point, the original desperate need for her mission had calmed down a bit.<\/p>\n<p>At the episode\u2019s conclusion, all was well for Boba and his allies. The people of Tatooine respected him, his workers (mainly the mods and Black Krrsantan) were getting along, and the Mandalorian and his little green pal jetted off together onto some new adventures.<\/p>\n<div class=\"&quot;image-handler__container\" image-handler__container--aspect=\"\" style=\"&quot;padding-bottom:\" calc=\"\"> <picture><source media=\"&quot;(max-width:\" data-srcset=\"&quot;https:\/\/images.immediate.co.uk\/production\/volatile\/sites\/3\/2022\/02\/Cobb-Vanth-lives-d7e36a3.png?webp=true&amp;quality=90&amp;resize=299%2C199,\" https:=\"\" type=\"&quot;image\/webp&quot;\"><source media=\"&quot;(max-width:\" data-srcset=\"&quot;https:\/\/images.immediate.co.uk\/production\/volatile\/sites\/3\/2022\/02\/Cobb-Vanth-lives-d7e36a3.png?quality=90&amp;resize=299%2C199,\" https:=\"\" type=\"&quot;image\/png&quot;\"><source media=\"&quot;(max-width:\" data-srcset=\"&quot;https:\/\/images.immediate.co.uk\/production\/volatile\/sites\/3\/2022\/02\/Cobb-Vanth-lives-d7e36a3.png?webp=true&amp;quality=90&amp;resize=354%2C236,\" https:=\"\" type=\"&quot;image\/webp&quot;\"><source media=\"&quot;(max-width:\" data-srcset=\"&quot;https:\/\/images.immediate.co.uk\/production\/volatile\/sites\/3\/2022\/02\/Cobb-Vanth-lives-d7e36a3.png?quality=90&amp;resize=354%2C236,\" https:=\"\" type=\"&quot;image\/png&quot;\"><source media=\"&quot;(max-width:\" data-srcset=\"&quot;https:\/\/images.immediate.co.uk\/production\/volatile\/sites\/3\/2022\/02\/Cobb-Vanth-lives-d7e36a3.png?webp=true&amp;quality=90&amp;resize=404%2C269&quot;\" type=\"&quot;image\/webp&quot;\"><source media=\"&quot;(max-width:\" data-srcset=\"&quot;https:\/\/images.immediate.co.uk\/production\/volatile\/sites\/3\/2022\/02\/Cobb-Vanth-lives-d7e36a3.png?quality=90&amp;resize=404%2C269&quot;\" type=\"&quot;image\/png&quot;\"><source media=\"&quot;(max-width:\" data-srcset=\"&quot;https:\/\/images.immediate.co.uk\/production\/volatile\/sites\/3\/2022\/02\/Cobb-Vanth-lives-d7e36a3.png?webp=true&amp;quality=90&amp;resize=554%2C369&quot;\" type=\"&quot;image\/webp&quot;\"><source media=\"&quot;(max-width:\" data-srcset=\"&quot;https:\/\/images.immediate.co.uk\/production\/volatile\/sites\/3\/2022\/02\/Cobb-Vanth-lives-d7e36a3.png?quality=90&amp;resize=554%2C369&quot;\" type=\"&quot;image\/png&quot;\"><source media=\"&quot;(min-width:\" data-srcset=\"&quot;https:\/\/images.immediate.co.uk\/production\/volatile\/sites\/3\/2022\/02\/Cobb-Vanth-lives-d7e36a3.png?webp=true&amp;quality=90&amp;resize=620%2C413&quot;\" type=\"&quot;image\/webp&quot;\"><source media=\"&quot;(min-width:\" data-srcset=\"&quot;https:\/\/images.immediate.co.uk\/production\/volatile\/sites\/3\/2022\/02\/Cobb-Vanth-lives-d7e36a3.png?quality=90&amp;resize=620%2C413&quot;\" type=\"&quot;image\/png&quot;\"><source media=\"&quot;(min-width:\" data-srcset=\"&quot;https:\/\/images.immediate.co.uk\/production\/volatile\/sites\/3\/2022\/02\/Cobb-Vanth-lives-d7e36a3.png?webp=true&amp;quality=90&amp;resize=407%2C271&quot;\" type=\"&quot;image\/webp&quot;\"><source media=\"&quot;(min-width:\" data-srcset=\"&quot;https:\/\/images.immediate.co.uk\/production\/volatile\/sites\/3\/2022\/02\/Cobb-Vanth-lives-d7e36a3.png?quality=90&amp;resize=407%2C271&quot;\" type=\"&quot;image\/png&quot;\"><source media=\"&quot;(min-width:\" data-srcset=\"&quot;https:\/\/images.immediate.co.uk\/production\/volatile\/sites\/3\/2022\/02\/Cobb-Vanth-lives-d7e36a3.png?webp=true&amp;quality=90&amp;resize=555%2C370&quot;\" type=\"&quot;image\/webp&quot;\"><source media=\"&quot;(min-width:\" data-srcset=\"&quot;https:\/\/images.immediate.co.uk\/production\/volatile\/sites\/3\/2022\/02\/Cobb-Vanth-lives-d7e36a3.png?quality=90&amp;resize=555%2C370&quot;\" type=\"&quot;image\/png&quot;\"><img class=\"&quot;wp-image-1581446\" align=\"\" size-landscape_thumbnail=\"\" image-handler__image=\"\" image-handler__image--aspect=\"\" no-wrap=\"\" js-lazyload=\"\" data-src=\"&quot;https:\/\/images.immediate.co.uk\/production\/volatile\/sites\/3\/2022\/02\/Cobb-Vanth-lives-d7e36a3.png?quality=90&amp;resize=620%2C413&quot;\" width=\"&quot;620&quot;\" height=\"&quot;413&quot;\" alt=\"&quot;The\" book=\"\" of=\"\" boba=\"\" fett=\"\" title=\"&quot;Cobb\" vanth=\"\" lives=\"\"\/><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/picture><\/div><div class=\"&quot;caption-hold&quot;\"><figcaption class=\"&quot;wp-caption-text&quot;\"><span class=\"&quot;caption-copy&quot;\"><i class=\"&quot;icon-arrow\" icon-camera-circle=\"\"\/> Timothy Olyphant as Cobb Vanth in The Book of Boba Fett (Disney)<\/span><\/figcaption><span class=\"&quot;im-image-caption&quot;\"\/><\/div>\n<p>And in <a href=\"\/\/www.radiotimes.com\/tv\/sci-fi\/book-boba-fett-end-credits\/&quot;\" target=\"&quot;_blank&quot;\" rel=\"&quot;noopener&quot;
