Betrayed by their friends and pursued by everyone's favorite bounty hunter, Han and Leia try to escape from Nar Shaddaa. Meanwhile, the Rebels in combat over the planet Calamari receive aid from an unexpected source, and Luke falls deeper into the grip of the Dark Side!Overview:Han and Leia are greeted by Boba Fett, Dengar and Han’s old friend Mako (who seems to have changed sides). Boba tells Han that he has waited a long time to kill him. Han and Leia blast their way out of the backdoor, and flee through the streets. Quickly they come to a dead-end, an abandoned spaceport of Nar Shadda. Han and Leia counter the bounty hunters’ attack. Suddenly, a stray shot hits the passing floater of a hutt. The hutt falls off, and Han and Leia take this chance to get on the floater.

It is revealed that override signals from Byss were the cause.Over Byss, Salla Zend’s Starlight Intruder makes it through the forcefield, using stolen Imperial Code , but Boba Fett’s Slave II gets deflected. The Intruder makes it into the hangar, and the Millennium Falcon detachs itself to penetrate even more through the security...
