The Mandalorian Chapter 9: The Marshal (directed by Jon Favreau, written by Jon Favreau, original air date October 30, 2020) introduces us to a new friend: Cobb Vanth, aka the Marshal. Our favorite bounty hunter thinks if he can hook up with other Mandalorians they will be able to put him in touch with some Jedi. He is tasked, as we know, with returning baby Yoda to his people.
We get to see out old friend, Peli Motto!
Peli Motto: [regarding The Child] If this thing ever divides or buds, I will gladly pay for the offspring.
In a case of mistaken identity, Mando gets a lead on a guy he thinks belongs to a covert, living on Tatooine. Turns out to be the Marshal. Seems he's wearing someone's old armor (purchased from Jawas after a certain creature of the Dune Sea was done attempting to slowly digest it over a thousand years). Mando doesn't take kindly to someone not committed to the Creed wearing the armor. He wants it back--but first we have to kill a Krayt dragon.
The Mandalorian: They say it lives in there. They say it sleeps. It lives in an abandoned sarlacc pit.
Cobb Vanth: Lived on Tatooine my whole life. There's no such thing as an abandoned sarlacc pit.
The Mandalorian: There is if you eat the sarlacc.
One of the best episodes of the entire series, in my estimation.
Cobb Vanth: I hope someday our paths will cross again.
The Mandalorian: As do I.
