Warning: Spoilers
In this episode of Cowboy Bebop, we discover about Faye's past and how everything she had -even the recollections- are gone now. A quick summary: A package comes for Faye with a Beta cassette. Faye runs, thinking it to be from a debt collector. Jet and Spike undertake a search for a player to view it. They find it is a cassette sent by Faye herself from 10 years ago.

I think the end of this episode is impactful, but I found the part where Jet and Spike searched for a player purposeless since the player was also sent to them later that episode. Don't get me wrong: I do not think that part was uninteresting. It would be too short if they removed that part, and we would miss all the well-written dialogues and settings. I'm just saying that the goal and the result of that scenes could have been better. The visual style and music are as astonishing and timeless as every other episode. Voice acting sounds pleasing, and every second of it was incredibly immersive. I don't remember losing attention even for a second.
