Shock and Awe
Plot Synopsis
Boba Fett deals with the war with the synari and talks to corespondents and officials.
Plot Summary
The Alliance News Network interrupts regular programing to present an update on the war with the synari. Boba speaks with Admiral Graves the fleet commander about the situation and we learn that they have traced a connection between the synari and the tuskans, and that an invasion of the tuskan homeworld of Tatooine will begin soon.
Boba then speaks to Donald Wedge who is on Tatooine and until Boba informs him blissfully unaware that bombs are about to fall from orbit. An interview with the President's Press Secretary is then shown dealing with allegations about the war, which the Press Secretary violently refutes, plus further details about the war are presented before President Zaius takes the podium to make his own announcements.
After the populous of the Alliance are informed about the Mustard of Mass Destruction on Tatooine, Boba checks in again with Donald Wedge who is attempting to speak to a tuskan raider. These attempts to communicate prove fruitless and after an anoucement from the President about how the mass destruction will benefit all, a translator arrives to help Donald Wedge with his report. The tuskans seem thrilled to have the Alliance there.
Watching on from Shauna's Ship? Marty and Bob argue about Marty's role in starting the war and how boring the news is.
This episode also featured a short tribute to Halloween.
