In this week's episode of Skeleton Crew, we pick up with Fern, Wim, Neel, and KB following Jod's shocking betrayal. While Fern and Neel decide to try and reach the group's ship, KB and Wim choose to follow some skittering trash crabs.
That leads them to a giant trash crab called Tet'Niss, "the Mama Crab." An edge-of-your-seat encounter follows while Jod wins over his old crew with the promise of leading them to At Attin's endless treasure.
In a newly released video, we see many of the Easter Eggs included on the back of Tet'Niss. There's an R2-D2, C-3PO, K-2SO, and even nods to ships like the Millennium Falcon and Hondo Ohnaka's ship, the Katooni.

In a recent interview with Slash Film, Jude Law explained how he prepared to join the Star Wars franchise:
"I had a lot of faith, when it was pitched to me, in Jon and Chris. They had done such hard work, and I loved the concept of seeing it all through these young protagonists. And they also obviously knew the galaxy very, very well, or the canon. And we had the godfathers of Favreau and Filoni looking out for us, who were there to sort of fill any holes or gaps that may appear. I felt confident that I knew it pretty well."
"To me, more than anything, it was about getting the tone of the performance right. I'm someone who always enjoyed the kind of cynical humor of the films and contrasting that with the sort of jeopardy and the drama. I feel like that's the sweet spot of "Star Wars" for me and my memory of watching the first three, certainly, as a kid."
"So to me, it was more a case of really trying to weave all of that into the performance, into Jod. It wasn't a case of trying to make sure — it wasn't my job, really, to make sure the details were correct. But then again, when we were discussing the past and his childhood, Jod's childhood, I checked all of that in with Jon and Chris. And I think in the end we use some of it in later episodes when we find out where he's from."
Star Wars: Skeleton Crew follows the journey of four kids who make a mysterious discovery on their seemingly safe home planet, then get lost in a strange and dangerous galaxy. Finding their way home - and meeting unlikely allies and enemies - will be a greater adventure than they ever imagined.
