In their quest to pay off a debt, Han and Chewie are caught between gangsters and the Empire. Chewie is held as collateral and forced to fight for survival, while Han is joined by his former partner, Billal Batross - an experienced, shady con artist - to complete an errand that will wipe out both Han and Billal's obligations to the mob. What could go wrong?
