Trivia[]
- This short takes place before the events of Return of the Jedi.
- Near the beginning two figures resembling Jaxxon and Skorr, the latter of whom is the Legends "bounty hunter we ran into on Ord Mantell", can be seen on screen.
- It is revealed in this short that the helmet and armor Leia wore in Return of the Jedi belonged to a bounty hunter named Boushh.
- In Legends, Leia got the Boushh's armor from the Black Sun leader Xizor and his human replica droid, Guri. The two ordered his death and made sure no one knew how he died so Leia can use the armor.
