    Session #1: Cowboy Gospel 
  • Spike's repeated attempts to reach out to Katerina. And for a second, it looks like she might even consider his proposal...then she decides to commit Suicide by Cop.

    Session #2: Venus Pop 

    Session #3: Dog Star Swing 

    Session #4: Callisto Soul 
  • Faye crashes her personal ship into the missile to save everyone—after she had abandoned the mission for her own goals.
  • Spike and Jet find Faye and patch her up after she crashes, then let her stay on the ship for a while.
  • Faye laments that she's lost all traces to her old life with the destruction of her ship. Spike, speaking from experience, gives her some encouragement:
    Spike: You know what's cool about losing your life? You get to start a whole new one.
  • The episode ends on a shot of Faye's slightly frustrated face... Until it shifts into an appreciative, hopeful smile.

    Session #5: Darkside Tango 
  • Chalmers letting Jet go after killing Fad.
    Chalmers: As far as I'm concerned, these two assholes shot each other.
  • Spike and Faye beginning to bond, even if it is only over baths and loofahs.

    Session #6: Binary Two-Step 
  • Mel and Faye Talking in Bed. Mel gives Faye some reassuring words after learning her backstory.
  • Jet pulling out all the stops, including potentially wrecking the Bebop, to save Spike. Despite all his bluster, he clearly cares about his partner.
  • When Jet asks Spike what he saw in the LONDES machine, Spike says he doesn't remember. Jet clearly knows he's lying, but doesn't press the issue further.

    Session #7: Galileo Hustle 
  • Spike takes on Iron Mink's thugs alone while Jet sits in a store watching his daughter's dance recital. When it's over, Spike is totally understanding and just casually asks how Kimmie's doing.
  • Jet, Chalmers, and Alisa coming together to support Kimmie at her recital, with no hostility and no barbs traded between any of them.
  • Faye discovers a videotape in her Identikit. It's a video of her younger self in a cheerleader outfit giving her a cheer of encouragement. Then it's a video of herself playing piano and getting praise from her off-screen mother.

    Session #8: Sad Clown-A-Go-Go 
  • The crew goes bowling for "family night". They also surprise Faye with a birthday cake and (try) to sing Happy Birthday to her, even though they don't know when her real birthday is.
  • Jet and Faye refuse to let Spike face Pierrot on his own, telling him they’re a team.
    Jet: You wanna go on a suicide run, you’re gonna have to Go Through Me first.

    Session #10: Supernova Symphony 
  • When Jet and Faye are reunited with Spike at Ana's bar, Jet immediately pulls Spike into a Bear Hug.
