I think you are right about what’s going to happen on Wednesday, but after Boba just kind of “careening about” for the first four eps, I’m not sure an “I’m the man moment” will feel like it’s earned, y’know?
The only way I can think of it feeling earned will be what I’ve said all along - “present-day” Boba’s been playing “rope-a-dope” the entire time. Acting like a bit of a deer in the headlights in terms of navigating the Tatooine underworld, when in reality, he had a master plan all along to get revenge against the Pykes (and everyone in cahoots with them), and his stumbling around was just a ruse to get all the players in place.
I really don’t think that’s what we’ll wind up seeing, but maybe. Or maybe Jon and RR have something else up their sleeve that’ll make Wednesday super-satisfying.
But whatever happens, there better be some serious ass-kicking on Boba’s part. Like, ass-kicking that makes “The Tragedy” pale in comparison. Ass-kicking involving Cad Bane.
