In the book of Boba Fett, when Cad Bane meets Cobb Vanth, he tells him that Boba Fett is a cold blooded killer that worked for the empire, to which Cobb says tell your spice runners tattooine is closed for business. Cad tells him you should have never given up your armour.
How the heck does he know Cobb had Boba’s armor and that he gave it to the Mandalorian.
Clearly, Cad has been keeping track of everything going on in Tatooine. This must have been a major prospect planet for the Pykes. They were probably scouring different planets out for which is best to sell spice through, and Tatooine definitely won, or became a more prime hub for it. This means that Cad knows about the Mandalorian, he knows about Boba Fett not having his armour, so probably he’s the one who killed the Tuskens and had been keeping an eye on them for a while as the pykes were travelling through Tatooine to do their trading, and he was hired to keep the operation going smoothly. This one line of dialogue is more creepy than I think many are giving it credit for. It’s super unsettling how privy Cad is to all the events going on in Tatooine and all the characters we’ve been following for so long, he’s been there watching and keeping tabs. It makes me wonder what would have happened had he actually been a bounty hunter to get Grogu from the Mandalorian. I don’t think the Mandalorian would have had a chance. While the dark troopers were powerful physically, they weren’t very bright. Cad Bane’s big brain houses decades of fighting experience and war tactics that make him who he is. The only thing is, he’s now so old, so I wonder how he’s going keep up with all the fighting going down. Does he have backup? I can’t imagine he’s the only one who’s protecting the pykes. There must be more muscle behind their grand plan and projects, and I think it’s Crimson Dawn. I also believe Cad has some others he brought with him, like Boba Fett brought Fennec, Cad probably called up Bossk, who is equally as terrifying as Black Krrsantan.
Why do you think Cad Bane knows so much about Cobb’s armour? Was he the one who killed Boba’s Tusken village? Where’s the warrior who Boba worked with? What happened to her?
