The latest instalment was filled with callbacks to old Star Wars films – and even featured an encounter between two characters that fans have been yearning for.
During the episode, Din Djarin travels to see the “little friend” he mentioned at the end of the previous episode – and that turns out to be, as fans expected, Grogu.
Here, Baby Yoda is getting trained up by none other than Luke Skywalker who is played by a de-aged Mark Hamill.
While viewers couldn’t get enough of seeing Luke and Grogu together, it was the meeting of Luke and Ahsoka Tano that caused true excitement.
Ahsoka was Anakin Skywalker’s Padawan before he turned to the dark side and became Darth Vader.
Fans have been dying for her to meet Luke on-screen for a long time, ever since their knowledge of each other was teased in the Star Wars book The Secrets of the Jedi.
Taking to Twitter, one excited fan penned: “I wanted this moment for so long and it finally happened! Ahsoka Tano and Luke Skywalker together on screen.”

A third fan, meanwhile, was delighted to see Yoda back on their screen, adding: “The Yoda and Luke Skywalker parallel had me crying. Just wow.”
The Book of Boba Fett is available to watch on Disney Plus.
