Solo: A Star Wars Story ending explained

What happens

Han shoots Beckett first, gives the fuel to Enfys Nest's rebels, and sees Qi'ra kill Vos and leave for Darth Maul. He then wins the Falcon from Lando at sabacc and sets off with Chewbacca for Tatooine and Jabba.

The last image

Han and Chewbacca fly the Millennium Falcon away from Savareen, bound for Jabba on Tatooine.

What it says

Han leaves with a ship and a partner, but without Qi'ra and with his trust in people worn thin. The ending shows the legend taking shape: the swagger we know comes from what he lost, and the choices he made.
