Crystalboy, a former employer of Boba Fett, was among the influential figures in the galaxy who were indebted to Fett. When Boba Fett sought to reacquire the seized Slave I, he called upon Crystalboy to act as a go-between. This was part of a scheme involving shell companies, false IDs, and fabricated requests to buy back the ship from the Rebel Alliance's storage facility on Grakouine through a "surplus liquidation" agreement.
