Trivia
When the bikers gang pursues the mayor's Twi'Lek majordomo, one of them crashes through a painting of Jabba the Hutt. This is art by Ralph McQuarrie created for his Star Wars: Episode VI - Return of the Jedi (1983) portfolio, but edited so Luke is not present in the picture.

Goofs
As the red speeder goes by, at the 33:10 mark, the inside of a hollow building made of wood can be seen at the bottom of the screen.

Connections

You can guess which are the worst.

Bobba Fett as a crime lord is unconvincing. All the citizens under his rule disrespect him. There are other fractions that are trying to kill him, but he just sits tight and does nothing.

He would prefer to solve a problem of local theft than attack his enemies.

He is portrayed as a wise man, that thinks through the situation before his judgement. That's great, but as a bounty hunter, as a criminal, he is a softie.

And that's a shame that main character is polar opposite to what he was before and should be now. Otherwise, even this episode is pretty good.
