Jabba ruled with fear. I intend to rule with respect.

S1 E1Chapter 1: Stranger in a Strange Land
[Master Garfalaquox has brought a gift for Boba Fett and is saying something in his language. Boba and Fennec are nodding as if they know what he's saying]
Did you catch any of that?
Something about friendship?
We really need a protocol droid.
[8D8 presents visitors for Boba Fett but the next ones are two shackled Gamorreans]
88D8
These two Gamorreans were once bodyguards to Jabba the Hutt, and later, Bib Fortuna. They did not surrender even after their patron was killed. They were captured alive as a tribute to you, Lord Fett. Their tortured squeals will send a piercing message to all potential challengers to your throne. [Gamorreans grunting]
I do not torture.
88D8
Well, respectfully, Lord Fett, on Tatooine you must project strength if you are to be accepted as a Daimyo.
You were loyal to both your bosses. [Gamorreans grunt] Would you be loyal to me if I were to spare you? [Gamorreans squeal and grunt in excitement; to Fennec] This is a bad idea.
[flashback: Fett and a Rodian have been recaptured by the Tusken Raiders]
We could have both escaped if you didn't sound the alarm. If you kept your snout closed, if we can get to Anchorhead, I can get us off world. I could also strangle you with this ankle chain and feed your leg to the watchdog. [Rodian mutters at him] Oh, that you understand, huh?
S1 E2Chapter 2: The Tribes of Tatooine
I am Boba Fett. I'm here to see the Mayor.
MSMok Shaiz' clerk
"Boba Fett." Um... Do you have an appointment?
MSMok Shaiz
Running a family is more complicated than bounty hunting.
[to Garsa Fwip] Mayor Mok Shaiz sent me here as though there's something I should know. ...And now you're sweating like a gumpta on Mustafar.
[flashback: Fett and the Tusken Raiders have just stolen a bunch of speeder bikes from a Nikto gang to prepare for ambushing a spice train]
[shooing away Tuskens trying to dismantle the bikes] Whoa! These are mine! These are mine, stop! These are mine. I will teach you how to ride. I will teach you. This is how we will stop the train.
[Boba Fett and Fennec Shand force their way to meet Mos Espa Mayor Mok Shaiz]
MSMok Shaiz
[Via interpreter] Who is this who enters unannounced?
You know damn well who.
It is the new Daimyo, Boba Fett, Your Excellence.
If you do not who know I am, then why did you send this man [points to captured assassin] to assassinate me?
I can assure you, the Mayor had nothing...
MSMok Shaiz
He's a member of the Order of the Night Wind.
Ah! Then you admit it.
SShaiz
The Order of the Night Wind are not allowed to operate outside of Hutt Space. Thank you for turning him in. Give this man his reward.
I am not a bounty hunter.
SShaiz
Is that so? I've heard otherwise. I know that you sit on the throne of your former employer.
Bib Fortuna was not my employer.
SShaiz
It was Jabba the Hutt's throne.
Yes. And now it is mine. And I will take this payment as what you should have brought me as tribute. You should remember, you serve as long as the Daimyo of Tatooine deem it so.
SShaiz
[rattled] Before you threaten me, you should ask yourself, who really sent the Night Wind? I have no motive. As you said, I serve at your pleasure.
I am not a fool, Mok Shaiz. And those who thought otherwise no longer draw breath.
SShaiz
Here is the tribute I offer, some advice. Running a family is more complicated than bounty hunting.
Is that it?
SShaiz
Go to Garsa's Sanctuary. You'll see what I speak of.
[flashback: Fett and the Tusken Raiders have successfully taken down the Pykes' spice train]
Who's the leader? [Pykes point at leader]
PSPyke Syndicate Leader
Are you going to kill us?
That depends on how you answer what I'm about to ask. [Tusken Raider talks] Are you carrying spice?
PSPyke Syndicate Leader
What do you mean by "spice"?
Sansanna spice from the slave mines of Kessel.
PSPyke Syndicate Leader
What does spice look like?
Like that. This is not looking good for you.
PSPyke Syndicate Leader
We thought you were uncivilized raiders. We were trying to protect our route.
These sands are no longer free for you to pass. These people lay ancestral claim to the Dune Sea, and if you are to pass, a toll is to be paid to them. Any death dealt from the passing freighters will be returned ten-fold. Now, go back to your syndicate and present these terms. Your lives are a gesture of our civility. Now walk. Single file, in the direction of the high sun. It will lead you to Anchorhead by sunset if you leave now.
PSPyke Syndicate Leader
But we'll be killed.
You now travel under the protection of the Tuskens. No harm will come of you.
PSPyke Syndicate Leader
We will die of thirst without our water car.
We will give you each a black melon. You will survive on its milk as these people do. Now go.
TRTusken Raider Chieftain
I have a gift for you.
A gift? Why?
TRTusken Raider Chieftain
You are a good guide. Now this gift will guide you.
A lizard? Thank you. I will let it guide me.
[the lizard jumps on him and goes up his nose]
I'm sorry, I think I swallowed it. It's a tricky little bugger.
TRTusken Raider Chieftain
It will guide you from inside your head.
S1 E3Chapter 3: The Streets of Mos Espa
[8D8 briefs Boba Fett about the crime situation in Mos Espa]
88D8
After the Sail Barge disaster, there was a power vacuum. Bib Fortuna assumed Jabba's mantle. Under Master Bib's watchful eye, Mos Espa was divided amongst three families. [outlines holomap] The Trandoshans took the city center. The Aqualish, the Worker's District here. And the Klatooinians, the starport and upper sprawl. Master Bib did not have the power of Jabba, so he relied on uneasy alliances to preserve his tribute and title.
All of this while lining the pockets of Mayor Mok Shaiz. Where does that leave us now?
Everyone is waiting to see what kind of leader you are.
Release him. [to Krrsantan] No hard feelings, it's just business. Take it from an ex-bounty hunter: don't work for scugholes. It's not worth it.
S1 E4Chapter 4: The Gathering Storm
[Boba Fett has dinner with the crime lords of Tattooine, but they doubt his sincerity]
Why speak of conflict when cooperation can make us all rich?
AGAqualish gang leader's translator
Master Garfalaquox asks what it is that you are proposing.
I am proposing that all the families of Mos Espa join in a defensive alliance until the Pyke Syndicate is vanquished.
KGKlatooinian gang leader
They have only challenged your territory. Why should we spill the blood of our ranks for a feud waged between you and the Pykes?
Yes. Then I will fight these battles alone. I will vanquish these interlopers who threaten our planet. I will make the streets safe again. So all in this room can prosper. All I ask in return is that you remain neutral if the Pyke Syndicate approaches you to betray me.
[to Fennec] I want you to help me. Help me recover my Firespray gunship.
