Jar Jar lands on Tatooine, crushing three Tusken Raiders as it falls. Jar Jar begins to vacuum toward Jabba the Hutt's Sail Barge. The camera then shows Boba Fett
aiming at Jar Jar from the Sail Barge. He begins shooting at Jar Jar, but he misses. Jar Jar notices, horrified, and runs away. Boba flies out of the sail barge to get closer. He flies by a desert skiff where the battle from Episode VI: Return of the Jedi
ensues. He gets too close, and gets knocked into the Pit of Carkoon and is devoured by the Sarlacc
.
Boba is later shown burped out of the Sarlacc. The scene cuts to the celebration scene on the forest moon of Endor
from Episode VI: Return of the Jedi. Jar Jar is inspecting his vacuum and then turns the vacuum into reverse mode and blows out all of its contents. The pieces become a stage in the shape of his head. Numerous characters are shown playing music (which sounds like a reggae version of "The Throne Room" track from the end of A New Hope). The scene cuts to Vader and Fett (both in casts), along with other antagonists watching the celebration on televison. Vader abd Fett quarrel over the remote control until it falls to the ground, meaning they will have to watch the concert.
