This show is screaming for a fan edit like this. So far, I think too many scenes could be deleted and others, reordered.

After watch Star Wars Theory review of the episode 3, he gave an idea that I think could work for this edit:

(SPOILERS FOR EPISODE 3 AHEAD!):

SWT commented that the BK fight scene with Boba could be placed in the first episode instead of the third. After all, Boba’s back was broken in this fight. In this episode, we don’t see the repercussions of this fact, since Boba walks normally after the fight, which is a bit strange. Reordering the scene to the beginning of BOBF would make his weakness so much understandable in the story of the series, since he was so badass in Mandalorian and in BOBF, he doesn’t (at least for now). Even the bacta tank scenes would make more sense, if the bacta was used for curing his back instead of his skin (since in the Mandalorian series Boba’s health was perfectly fine).

A second suggestion for this episode: if you maintain the chase sequence, I think it could be good to cut the bikers pursuing the mayor’s assistant, because the scene itself is really embarrassing. Just putting Boba reaching the assistant through the jetpack in the end could resolve, I think (and would give Boba more attitude).

Overall, looking forward for this edit. BOBF seems to fit more in the movie format than the series format.
