It had better be a graphic scene, too - none of that "dragged beneath the sand and digested by the Sarlacc" nonsense.
If Jar-Jar ain't dead by the end of Ep. 3, we should petition Lucas for an "Extra-Special Edition" of Ep. 4, wherein the "Greedo shot first" scene can be justified (at least partially). If, after ricocheting off the wall, the stray blaster bolt (which inexplicably missed from two feet away) were to zip across the cantina and drill a neat hole through Jar-Jar's head, I'd be tempted to give Lucas a pass on his lame attempt to "cleanse" the Han Solo character. As of right now, I am not so inclined.
Jar-Jar looks like something out of the original Mos Eisley cantina scene, so it's perfectly appropriate for him to buy the farm there.
