WEBVTT 1 00:00:31.000 --> 00:00:35.799 Hello, and welcome to another episode of Jeff Jeff's Bizarre Adventure, where Jeff 2 00:00:35.840 --> 00:00:40.479 Bakola is going to explain why he doesn't think memes are funny. Yeah, 3 00:00:40.600 --> 00:00:45.719 I feel like we jumped down Jeff Bachla's throat a lot, and I think 4 00:00:45.719 --> 00:00:47.840 it's just time to let him defend himself. Take it away, Jeff. 5 00:00:48.719 --> 00:00:52.200 So it's less of defense and more of just like something I've noticed the last 6 00:00:52.320 --> 00:00:55.280 like maybe five years or so, I just don't think many memes on the 7 00:00:55.320 --> 00:00:58.640 Internet are as funny as they used to be. Can I can I just 8 00:00:58.640 --> 00:01:00.679 say? Can I just say this is that this is in response to me 9 00:01:00.880 --> 00:01:04.920 sending a meme to the group chat. This was a response to a meme. 10 00:01:06.079 --> 00:01:10.120 So this feels you didn't make this, but I sent this. I 11 00:01:10.159 --> 00:01:12.599 curated this meme for this audience, her best. She was doing her best 12 00:01:12.599 --> 00:01:17.159 to bring a little joy into our inter her friends. And it's and I 13 00:01:17.200 --> 00:01:19.560 turned around on it, which I am finding that, like sometimes I think 14 00:01:19.599 --> 00:01:23.280 it's the joke has been lost on me and I need to like stare at 15 00:01:23.319 --> 00:01:27.799 it for like a good seconds before quote you earlier to get it. And 16 00:01:27.840 --> 00:01:30.799 I don't want to get it. Oh, I didn't say I don't want 17 00:01:30.840 --> 00:01:34.760 to get it. John, You're you're you're putting words in mine. This 18 00:01:34.879 --> 00:01:40.159 was a Golfield meme that I sent in response to Jeff telling John how much 19 00:01:40.200 --> 00:01:45.680 he loved his Godfield video. Yes, I'm just so delighted to even know 20 00:01:45.799 --> 00:01:49.000 John, let alone share a podcast there with them. But the longest time, 21 00:01:49.079 --> 00:01:55.079 we say that that is just how I am. Ordanically, you should 22 00:01:55.120 --> 00:01:59.519 know that for the longest time, Lucy and I spent all of our time 23 00:01:59.640 --> 00:02:05.200 efforts an ability to try and make sure Jeff remains reasonably cool on the internet. 24 00:02:05.239 --> 00:02:07.879 We had a show called you know, the very online Show. We 25 00:02:07.959 --> 00:02:10.560 helped him stay in touch with everything. The show stopped, and now this 26 00:02:10.599 --> 00:02:14.919 motherfucker's out here going I don't think memes are funny on the internet. Yeah, 27 00:02:15.120 --> 00:02:20.599 he is like aged himself. Like people who people who who thought that 28 00:02:20.879 --> 00:02:23.759 he he was like cool are now going, oh, this is the switch 29 00:02:23.840 --> 00:02:28.439 Kickstown guy. I see, I see. Yeah, it's me again coming 30 00:02:28.479 --> 00:02:31.000 in on my walker, being like when in my day there was more than 31 00:02:31.199 --> 00:02:39.280 there was just one cable network. Listen, listen. I just think that 32 00:02:39.520 --> 00:02:49.479 I have a tough time sometimes understanding very like specific, very vertical slice meme 33 00:02:49.639 --> 00:02:53.400 things where it's like just taking too much content. And also I just want 34 00:02:53.400 --> 00:02:54.759 to say, like I came out of the very online show on the other 35 00:02:54.800 --> 00:02:59.439 side of that, came out a much better person, Okay, became much 36 00:02:59.599 --> 00:03:08.199 much more rounded, cultured person, well rounded, just like cultural Internet culture 37 00:03:08.520 --> 00:03:13.360 wise. Right, that's a good thing. I just think, I just 38 00:03:13.400 --> 00:03:15.879 think I come into contact with a good amount of memes where I'm like staring 39 00:03:15.919 --> 00:03:20.520 at it and I'm either like I don't get it, or if this is 40 00:03:20.560 --> 00:03:23.039 the joke, I don't think it's funny. Lucy did send one in our 41 00:03:23.120 --> 00:03:28.800 chat with the theme of Garfield. It's an empty Lasagna dish. At the 42 00:03:28.800 --> 00:03:32.439 top says Garfield non believers be like Colon and at the bottom must have been 43 00:03:32.560 --> 00:03:38.280 the win. Even last time, I get it, And it's it's funny 44 00:03:38.520 --> 00:03:40.479 because the point I said, and the reason the thing I said about John's 45 00:03:40.520 --> 00:03:50.639 video is the very lasting sort of thesis of it of being that Garfield is 46 00:03:50.719 --> 00:03:54.960 nowhere but also everywhere at the same time, which is like this magic Houdini 47 00:03:55.639 --> 00:04:00.759 quality about the ipay. So anyway, uh, you're right, Lucy, 48 00:04:00.879 --> 00:04:05.520 I'm wrong. I'm a dumb old. Idiots said that I'm just stupid, 49 00:04:05.800 --> 00:04:12.439 you know. It's you gotta be a bit more introspective and just take Is 50 00:04:12.439 --> 00:04:15.079 that what it is? It's the lack of introspection that really bothers me. 51 00:04:15.120 --> 00:04:19.160 Honestly, Well, I didn't think we'd land there. Guys, Welcome to 52 00:04:19.199 --> 00:04:24.160 the therapy. Okay, maybe I should be laying down. For this podcast 53 00:04:24.199 --> 00:04:31.680 episode, we are going to recap another two episodes of I was gonna say 54 00:04:31.759 --> 00:04:38.639 Jojo, but it's Cowboy Bebop. The episodes we're gonna be recapping our Bohemian 55 00:04:38.759 --> 00:04:45.040 Rhapsody and My Funny Valentine, two of my favorite queen songs. Is My 56 00:04:45.079 --> 00:04:54.040 Funny Valentine and Queen song Nope, well one out of a bad right guy 57 00:04:54.120 --> 00:04:56.959 that means I'm not funny. This is the guy that thinks means I'm not 58 00:04:57.079 --> 00:04:59.720 funny. He's like, that's my favorite song? Is a song? No? 59 00:05:00.759 --> 00:05:04.639 Did you hear Lucy laughing? Because I sure did, Tam Baker, 60 00:05:04.959 --> 00:05:15.920 I've never heard this song before. Cool, she laughed. The episodes Bohemian 61 00:05:15.000 --> 00:05:20.959 Rhapsody, What did ever want to think? I enjoyed both of these. 62 00:05:21.120 --> 00:05:27.879 I really enjoyed My Funny too. I enjoyed both. But although I love 63 00:05:27.920 --> 00:05:31.439 it. I love a chess chess theme. Yeah yeah, I mean I 64 00:05:31.480 --> 00:05:35.600 love how Lucy adjust to her glasses just as she said, chess theme Chess. 65 00:05:38.800 --> 00:05:42.720 I think this episode really came together for me in like the last two 66 00:05:42.839 --> 00:05:44.759 or three. Well, we'll get to it, but there's a moment in 67 00:05:44.759 --> 00:05:47.000 this episode where I was like, oh, it kind of turned into something 68 00:05:47.040 --> 00:05:51.160 a little more and I like that a lot. I think Bohemian Rhapsody is 69 00:05:51.160 --> 00:05:55.199 a very good, like world building kind of episode in a way. I 70 00:05:55.240 --> 00:06:00.560 just think there's a lot of fun. I like getting lost in in all 71 00:06:00.600 --> 00:06:04.000 of the minutia. I like getting lost in all of like the set dressing 72 00:06:04.120 --> 00:06:09.120 and the and the gunk of the world of Cowboy Bebop. And I think 73 00:06:09.160 --> 00:06:14.759 this episode services that very well, and that's why I andoyed my time with 74 00:06:14.759 --> 00:06:19.199 it. Oh Heemian Rhapsody. It begins with Spike Fate and successfully capturing twenty 75 00:06:19.319 --> 00:06:25.319 thugs from an astral Gate hijack attempt, but sadly, they cannot collect a 76 00:06:25.399 --> 00:06:29.399 bounty unless they capture the mastermind behind the robberies too. You need the full 77 00:06:29.439 --> 00:06:34.720 set also. These episode recaps up all from the Cowboy Bebop fandom wiki Thank 78 00:06:34.720 --> 00:06:39.959 you to those who maintained that. Appreciate it. So after that, the 79 00:06:40.040 --> 00:06:43.920 crew returned to the Bebop and they're all having a moan and Ed is listening, 80 00:06:44.839 --> 00:06:48.560 and they Ed is asking like if they got any information, and they 81 00:06:48.600 --> 00:06:53.399 all reach into their pockets and they pull out basically the same clue, an 82 00:06:53.480 --> 00:06:59.639 identical king chest piece, which was cool. It's well the thing the Pink 83 00:06:59.680 --> 00:07:02.720 Panther would leave on a glove. Yeah, that was cool. Pink pant 84 00:07:02.959 --> 00:07:06.800 Was it a glove or was it it's like a calling card? Didn't they 85 00:07:06.839 --> 00:07:14.120 leave a glove? It might it might be you, bitch, Pink Panther. 86 00:07:14.879 --> 00:07:19.160 There's nothing wrong with Pink Panther. Pink Panthers has thirty nine bitch. 87 00:07:19.920 --> 00:07:25.439 I'm sorry if you if you can't take it, you cannot dish it. 88 00:07:25.839 --> 00:07:30.040 Okay, I can leave anything else, Like who else leaves a fucking calling 89 00:07:30.120 --> 00:07:35.639 god, like, unless you're leaving a joker or yeah that's not that's not 90 00:07:36.000 --> 00:07:41.199 that's an invite. What kind of Batman? Batman? Yeah? Yeah, 91 00:07:41.639 --> 00:07:47.160 oh yes, Batman leaving his classic love he leaves a batter angher. I'll 92 00:07:47.160 --> 00:07:53.360 have you know. Jeff the official Pink Panther YouTube account has twenty million subscribers. 93 00:07:54.319 --> 00:07:59.839 What what? And they uploaded a video four days ago? They are, 94 00:07:59.879 --> 00:08:05.160 I add, very much if the Peter Seller's estate refusing to let go. 95 00:08:07.639 --> 00:08:09.839 Yeah, it's the animation. Yeah, the cartoon. Okay, so 96 00:08:09.879 --> 00:08:13.720 there's that. Yeah, there's new Pink Panther cartoons. I caught my kid 97 00:08:13.720 --> 00:08:18.519 watching one the other day. Something. You caught him red handed. It 98 00:08:18.600 --> 00:08:26.680 was like turn off and put on some hockey. Not often real things. 99 00:08:26.720 --> 00:08:31.959 Too quickly we're talking about the pink. How the fuck does the pink in 100 00:08:31.120 --> 00:08:37.919 twenty twenty three? How does the Pink Panther have twenty million followers? I 101 00:08:37.960 --> 00:08:41.759 don't know, but I found the next subject to your video? Why is 102 00:08:41.919 --> 00:08:46.279 every single video a thirty five minute compilation of Pink Panther? Pink? Okay, 103 00:08:46.399 --> 00:08:52.039 if the Pink Panther loses his color enough that you can make a thirty 104 00:08:52.120 --> 00:08:54.799 five minute compilation, maybe the bit has been running into the ground. Pink 105 00:08:54.799 --> 00:09:00.639 Panther goes bowling at thirty five minutes. Guys, without without checking anything, 106 00:09:00.759 --> 00:09:03.799 They're clicking on anything. What how many views do you think the most viewed 107 00:09:03.919 --> 00:09:09.919 video in this channel has, oh like seventeen million? Okay, let's get 108 00:09:09.879 --> 00:09:13.679 it let's get some guesses. Jeff, I think one hundred millions. Tam, 109 00:09:15.559 --> 00:09:20.000 I think it's like fifty million, Lucy, I'm going to hit in 110 00:09:20.080 --> 00:09:24.679 the middle. Seventy five, three hundred and eighty million views. There you 111 00:09:24.720 --> 00:09:31.720 go on one video? How what is happening on one video? Tap you 112 00:09:31.879 --> 00:09:35.919 one video? John, you need to do it's on the wrong cat. 113 00:09:35.879 --> 00:09:39.960 I just said you you need to do a documentary on Like, is Pink 114 00:09:41.000 --> 00:09:46.759 Panther still like the most relevant cartoon Panther garth? I just I don't understand 115 00:09:46.799 --> 00:09:50.000 it, Like I have never heard anyone. I haven't had had a conversation 116 00:09:50.039 --> 00:09:54.679 with Pink Panthers since I was like five. How is it alive on the 117 00:09:54.679 --> 00:09:58.360 internet. It's not even a good thumbnail for the three hundred and eighty million 118 00:09:58.399 --> 00:10:01.639 one. It's just it's it's just living based off the she you know, 119 00:10:03.360 --> 00:10:09.159 popularity of Pink Panthers, A musical it's very relevant now called Pink Panthers. 120 00:10:09.200 --> 00:10:13.399 She's Pink Panther is very much in the zeit guy. Still it's like twenty 121 00:10:13.519 --> 00:10:18.360 videos on here with one hundred million views. Yeah, I think there's also 122 00:10:20.039 --> 00:10:26.480 I think we're underestimating the attraction that young children might have to this franchise. 123 00:10:26.879 --> 00:10:30.639 I think that. I think it plays well for kids perhaps, and once 124 00:10:30.879 --> 00:10:33.600 you know something happens with kids, forget it. Oh you have a blue 125 00:10:33.759 --> 00:10:37.320 situation on your hands. Put pink on that. That was my favorite episode. 126 00:10:39.840 --> 00:10:41.679 So yeah, this isn't surprising. I think it's a little higher than 127 00:10:41.679 --> 00:10:46.480 I would have guessed, but I don't think it's ultimately surprised. Jeff. 128 00:10:46.519 --> 00:10:50.799 I think I think it's a kids thing because there turned off and usually they 129 00:10:50.799 --> 00:10:52.879 do that for kids channels. There you go, pink flea. Oh, 130 00:10:52.960 --> 00:10:56.080 I remember that one. He got a flea and he had to like shave 131 00:10:56.159 --> 00:11:00.120 himself and you listen and get rid of the flea. I do. I'm 132 00:11:00.159 --> 00:11:05.559 watching a pig panther fuck cowboy. Yeah you know what pink panther is in 133 00:11:05.879 --> 00:11:11.720 YouTube kids, which is like a cut off platform. Mystery solved. That 134 00:11:11.799 --> 00:11:13.279 doesn't count. Well, there you go. Your video is going to be 135 00:11:13.320 --> 00:11:18.639 short. Then yeahn done, done, like and subscribe. There we go. 136 00:11:18.720 --> 00:11:22.120 That's what I say at the end of every video. I know. 137 00:11:22.360 --> 00:11:26.639 I never say that at the end of any video ever. Look, I 138 00:11:26.679 --> 00:11:31.559 know, don't you try and fucking bullshit me? I know, I know, 139 00:11:31.799 --> 00:11:37.320 very good uh, cowboy bebop. Wait, Jet Jet has a weird 140 00:11:37.799 --> 00:11:41.919 beard that I never realized, and I wanted to say it before I forgot. 141 00:11:45.159 --> 00:11:46.919 No, of course I realized he had a beard, but he has 142 00:11:46.960 --> 00:11:54.480 two sort of like little straps that come around and almost enter below his eyes, 143 00:11:54.200 --> 00:12:00.039 like those little thorny boys get real close to the nose. If you 144 00:12:00.039 --> 00:12:03.879 even noticed the episodes of this, yeah, yeah, but we haven't talked 145 00:12:03.879 --> 00:12:07.639 about the shape of jets beard. You haven't talked about it because you haven't. 146 00:12:07.879 --> 00:12:11.919 You haven't noticed it over sixteen episodes. Well, today is the day 147 00:12:11.960 --> 00:12:15.000 I chose to really pay attention to it. I don't know, I'm talking 148 00:12:15.360 --> 00:12:20.159 just kind of. I'm kind of bothered by this. You you know, 149 00:12:22.399 --> 00:12:24.879 It's okay. It's a good beard, I would say. The only thing 150 00:12:26.240 --> 00:12:30.240 is like it's pretty high up on his cheek, which is which is interesting. 151 00:12:30.320 --> 00:12:33.440 But as someone who has had hair that high on my cheek, I 152 00:12:33.519 --> 00:12:39.759 understand it. It's shaped in a really interesting in an interesting way, but 153 00:12:39.840 --> 00:12:43.960 way too high. Mm hmm, yeah, it does tie. It's it's 154 00:12:43.960 --> 00:12:52.519 a bit tiger, which is cool. What was that I was wondering if 155 00:12:52.559 --> 00:12:56.679 we rolled past that? Yeah, let's just keep going he's also doing like 156 00:12:56.679 --> 00:13:01.519 a little just how a tiger does. Tiger stands up and just goes rank, 157 00:13:03.240 --> 00:13:07.759 Jeff, you're now you need to turn down the bedroom energy and turne 158 00:13:07.840 --> 00:13:11.159 up the work energy. Okay, okay, got it, Thank you. 159 00:13:13.639 --> 00:13:16.919 The Gate Corporation is being flooded with complaints from people who've lost their savings in 160 00:13:18.000 --> 00:13:22.679 these gate robberies, and so the Gate Corporation has put out a bounty of 161 00:13:22.759 --> 00:13:26.879 twelve million woolong on capturing the mastermind, but so far, no one's been 162 00:13:26.000 --> 00:13:33.000 successful. Fay at one point suggested that everyone works separately and then collect all 163 00:13:33.039 --> 00:13:37.720 the money for themselves, but now she decides that they should pull their resources 164 00:13:37.759 --> 00:13:43.440 and work together to find the mastermind. The others obviously take their personal like 165 00:13:43.519 --> 00:13:46.279 and I'm like, oh you you want it to work alone? Now, 166 00:13:46.320 --> 00:13:52.440 you flip flopping on that, But eventually they agree and Jet then lays out 167 00:13:52.480 --> 00:13:54.919 what he knows, which is the important part of it is the hijacks were 168 00:13:54.919 --> 00:14:00.519 all done in the exact same way. Everyone infiltrated. The toll booth attached 169 00:14:00.519 --> 00:14:03.720 to hacking unit that stole a passing ship's balance when it paid the gate toll, 170 00:14:05.000 --> 00:14:09.399 which is pretty clever. Me playing Cyberpunk twenty seven done the same way. 171 00:14:11.080 --> 00:14:16.200 Yeah, that's up, girl, a creature of habit. The unit 172 00:14:16.759 --> 00:14:22.120 immediately sent the cash credits over to a secure link to a bank on Europa, 173 00:14:22.360 --> 00:14:26.320 and there the money was electronically launded in a way that can't be traced. 174 00:14:26.840 --> 00:14:30.080 And then all of the hijackers were caught in the act, but none 175 00:14:30.120 --> 00:14:35.080 of them actually had anything in common. That's everything he knows. Fay says 176 00:14:35.120 --> 00:14:39.200 that one of the hijackers she caught was following the instructions from a manual he'd 177 00:14:39.200 --> 00:14:45.320 found on a website that's no longer around, so basically the how to rob 178 00:14:45.360 --> 00:14:50.279 a bank's style menu. Spike learns that the hacking units were designed by a 179 00:14:50.360 --> 00:14:56.399 Pika who knew precisely how the gate system worked, and then Spike thought the 180 00:14:56.399 --> 00:15:01.200 Gate Corporation knew what was going on but didn't want to talk about it. 181 00:15:01.440 --> 00:15:05.360 Meanwhile, Edie is just kind of like pissing about with some cables and electrocutes 182 00:15:07.559 --> 00:15:13.080 herself and it's like, shit, I'm electrocutes just flopping around there. Can 183 00:15:13.120 --> 00:15:16.919 we take the temperature on how we all feeling a lot of noises? I'm 184 00:15:16.960 --> 00:15:24.320 a fan, I I like it. She's great, Lucy tim I like 185 00:15:24.399 --> 00:15:26.559 it a lot more. In this episode, I like Japanese said, I 186 00:15:26.559 --> 00:15:33.600 don't like English head. Okay, yeah I should. Okay, that's interesting. 187 00:15:33.639 --> 00:15:39.320 I need to go hear what Japanese head sounds like. Yeah, there's 188 00:15:39.320 --> 00:15:45.600 a little more tonal variety in Japanese head. Ed is playing with some cables 189 00:15:45.639 --> 00:15:48.440 electrocutes herself. She's not dead though, thankfully. She She's just been hooking 190 00:15:48.519 --> 00:15:54.759 up her e chessboard, which is pretty dangerous. It seems she grabs all 191 00:15:54.799 --> 00:16:00.279 the chest pieces from them and uses it to connect to an opponent who date 192 00:16:00.320 --> 00:16:03.759 I was stored on the chip. This opponent is called chess Master Hex, 193 00:16:06.559 --> 00:16:10.799 which is a pretty good name. Have you got any call nicknames anyone? 194 00:16:11.919 --> 00:16:19.399 Not as code names? Super? There you go. That's a handle you've 195 00:16:19.480 --> 00:16:27.480 had since before your rise the internet? Do you give you it was expressed? 196 00:16:27.720 --> 00:16:33.120 It was created purely for the YouTube channel? Did you give yourself that 197 00:16:33.360 --> 00:16:37.039 to? Just? Sure? Not really a nickname? I got given a 198 00:16:37.120 --> 00:16:44.919 nickname the other day. Actually it was not good. Well, now we 199 00:16:45.000 --> 00:16:48.000 must know it must no longer be a secret. You cannot just put that 200 00:16:48.039 --> 00:16:51.039 information out there and not follow up. What is it? We were flying 201 00:16:51.080 --> 00:16:56.600 back from l A and we're going through uh, you know, the little 202 00:16:56.679 --> 00:17:00.240 security line before you go and put your Yes, we've all been on planes. 203 00:17:00.279 --> 00:17:11.680 What do you mean you entered? You and see Lucy's laughing because she 204 00:17:11.799 --> 00:17:18.599 gets it. She gets it. Great podcasting, It is this funny. 205 00:17:19.039 --> 00:17:22.319 I would love to see Jeff at like a stand up show. Just set 206 00:17:22.440 --> 00:17:30.359 up aloud, get to the punchline, say the punchline. You had entered. 207 00:17:30.880 --> 00:17:34.000 You had entered a part of that story where you were about to explain 208 00:17:34.119 --> 00:17:41.160 what a TSA security line was. And I was just like, we have 209 00:17:41.359 --> 00:17:47.839 Jeff here to edit our conversations for us. I couldn't. Lucy, that's 210 00:17:47.880 --> 00:17:52.960 the hardest you're gonna laugh to that? Okay, Yeah, anyway, I'm 211 00:17:52.960 --> 00:17:56.839 glad. I So we're about to go through TSA security. They look at 212 00:17:56.880 --> 00:18:03.000 my boarding pass, wave me through as in the world just goes what did 213 00:18:03.000 --> 00:18:07.720 she say? All right? Jet Blue? Yeah? What what She's like? 214 00:18:07.079 --> 00:18:10.440 Move along? Jet Blue? And I was like, what the fuck? 215 00:18:11.079 --> 00:18:15.279 What does that mean? I have no idea? Yeah, we were 216 00:18:15.319 --> 00:18:18.240 flying jet Blue, but like I was the only one she said that to 217 00:18:18.359 --> 00:18:22.839 no one else, And Lucy was on the same flight with the same airline 218 00:18:22.319 --> 00:18:25.920 a second before me. You know what the difference was. No, you 219 00:18:25.920 --> 00:18:32.359 were wearing a blue shirt. You're wearing the blue Jump. Okay, so 220 00:18:32.440 --> 00:18:37.640 weird Jet Blue? Did I ever tell you guys? I find it funny 221 00:18:37.720 --> 00:18:41.759 enough the character in this show is called Jet Black, So yeah, there 222 00:18:41.799 --> 00:18:45.079 is that connection because every tell you guys about how I got the nickname Joho, 223 00:18:45.200 --> 00:18:48.519 and that was a nickname given to me by the country of Japan. 224 00:18:48.559 --> 00:18:56.039 Joo. No, because you like Japanese the Japanese dentist Japanese DS story story 225 00:18:56.039 --> 00:18:59.680 for another day, but let's just you can't just put that out there and 226 00:18:59.720 --> 00:19:03.599 then just yeah, it's a long one. Lucy, it's a long one. 227 00:19:02.119 --> 00:19:06.559 And crazy here we'll call you Joho. Is that what you want to 228 00:19:06.640 --> 00:19:08.880 jo? People do? My dad does, oh, oh wow, this 229 00:19:08.960 --> 00:19:15.400 is a family nickname. Learning a lot interesting. She doesn't believe that. 230 00:19:15.920 --> 00:19:19.440 Ed doesn't believe that is related to what they're talking about. But Jet is 231 00:19:19.440 --> 00:19:22.720 like, yeah, just play the opponent, let's see what happens. Meanwhile, 232 00:19:22.720 --> 00:19:26.279 on the other end, an old man receives a new game invite and 233 00:19:26.400 --> 00:19:32.359 is now interested in playing. Jet goes to the Gate Corporation headquarters and asked 234 00:19:32.400 --> 00:19:34.720 us to see the CEO. But on the way and he meets Jonathan, 235 00:19:34.799 --> 00:19:38.759 an old friend and a fellow bounty hunter. As he's leaving, Jet kind 236 00:19:38.759 --> 00:19:41.839 of gives him a bit of grief for not being successful in his bounty hunting, 237 00:19:42.240 --> 00:19:48.839 and Jonathan wants Jet that the bounty is way more difficult than it appears. 238 00:19:49.119 --> 00:19:52.119 While he's meeting with the CEO, Jet starts to light a cigarette and 239 00:19:52.119 --> 00:19:56.559 he's like, and the persons like smoking here, so he puts it out. 240 00:19:57.319 --> 00:20:00.759 He doesn't put it out, does carry on smoking smoking? Round? 241 00:20:00.839 --> 00:20:02.960 No? He puts it out in a planter. Oh yeah, yeah, 242 00:20:02.960 --> 00:20:07.319 but yeah, And then he basically says that he knows that the Gate Corporation 243 00:20:07.440 --> 00:20:11.680 is hiding something, and then he chucks the chess piece at the CEO and 244 00:20:11.720 --> 00:20:17.400 said that these attacks were planned in advance. The CEO refuses to respond to 245 00:20:17.440 --> 00:20:19.640 his questions and he just says that you should focus on catching the bounty and 246 00:20:19.640 --> 00:20:25.559 basically hasn't been squirted out. While they're waiting for the ship to be returned, 247 00:20:25.960 --> 00:20:29.279 Jet turns on a listening device that it connects to a micro that connects 248 00:20:29.279 --> 00:20:33.319 to a microphone cigarette that he put in the CEO's office. Which is some 249 00:20:33.400 --> 00:20:38.319 of the most clever bug placement I've ever like, that's great. I've never 250 00:20:38.319 --> 00:20:41.440 seen that before. Yeah, I've never seen a single James Bond movie. 251 00:20:42.039 --> 00:20:45.519 I was just gonna say, that is some James Bond shit that I like. 252 00:20:45.559 --> 00:20:48.240 I don't think everything in a cigarette, but they hold on the cigarette 253 00:20:48.559 --> 00:20:52.920 just long enough that you're like, like, I thought, oh, Jet's 254 00:20:52.000 --> 00:20:56.160 like kind of he's giving a little sas to this guy, and I didn't 255 00:20:56.200 --> 00:20:59.640 think any more about it than that, and then it's like, shit, 256 00:20:59.799 --> 00:21:03.759 that's so good, so smart. I loved it. Oh my gosh, 257 00:21:03.920 --> 00:21:11.119 Yeah, it's very clever. So sorry, that's my space. Okay. 258 00:21:11.160 --> 00:21:14.759 So he learns that the Mastermind is named Chess Master. Hectx this is the 259 00:21:14.759 --> 00:21:18.319 first instance of them saying the name, and so does Jonathan because Jonathan is 260 00:21:18.400 --> 00:21:25.759 hiding nearby and listening. Hex continues to play with Ed in that chess match, 261 00:21:26.240 --> 00:21:30.039 and Spike and Fay are taking a look at the chess pieces and only 262 00:21:30.119 --> 00:21:36.000 can find chess data in there. Jet radios in with the information that he's 263 00:21:36.000 --> 00:21:41.000 gathered on the Mastermind, and Ed is still playing the chess game. At 264 00:21:41.039 --> 00:21:45.480 one point, she thinks that she's got checkmate and instead takes Hext's rook, 265 00:21:45.640 --> 00:21:49.880 which is which is very exciting for chess Master. Hexts he's just having a 266 00:21:49.880 --> 00:21:56.039 great time and where He's like, this person is either a genie total idiot. 267 00:21:56.160 --> 00:22:00.559 Yeah yeah, Spikes begins to read the bi on chess Master Hex, 268 00:22:00.599 --> 00:22:04.279 which goes Chess Master. Heck's estimated to be ninety eight years old, a 269 00:22:04.319 --> 00:22:08.319 programmer that had been dubbed a genius from his teens. In the Cosmos Net 270 00:22:08.519 --> 00:22:14.000 chess tournaments, he held the champions seat for decades. He applied his intellect 271 00:22:14.119 --> 00:22:18.759 Hyperspace Gate project, joining the program at thirty years of age. He eventually 272 00:22:18.799 --> 00:22:22.640 developed the central control system that all gates used to this day. But after 273 00:22:22.680 --> 00:22:26.160 that he started to have doubts. He said that the design had defects and 274 00:22:26.200 --> 00:22:30.640 the gates shouldn't be built yet, and he's as he wanted to run more 275 00:22:30.680 --> 00:22:34.079 tests, but they fired him and built the gates anywhere anyway, and he's 276 00:22:34.119 --> 00:22:37.839 been missing for fifty years. Yeah. I love that. I love the 277 00:22:37.920 --> 00:22:41.359 little trip that memory lane, like you learn everything you need to know. 278 00:22:41.480 --> 00:22:48.000 I just like And it's funny because I don't like reading the little journal notes 279 00:22:48.039 --> 00:22:51.519 in video games. I don't, but this is exactly what that is. 280 00:22:51.720 --> 00:22:56.559 So I don't know. I can't explain why, but I really love these 281 00:22:56.640 --> 00:23:00.319 little tidbits, you know, narration, you get to like little folk those 282 00:23:00.319 --> 00:23:03.440 of them as well, which are really well drawn and expressive. Yeah. 283 00:23:03.480 --> 00:23:07.720 To experience more of this kind of information if you read the stuff in video 284 00:23:07.720 --> 00:23:12.000 games and listen to audio logs. Mm hmm, that's true. I prefer 285 00:23:12.119 --> 00:23:15.000 audio lot. Read the I am descriptions. Thank you for making that. 286 00:23:15.359 --> 00:23:22.960 You welcome. The tries to get adds attention, but it is too busy 287 00:23:22.960 --> 00:23:26.039 playing the game, and at one point even does like a cat like kiss 288 00:23:26.200 --> 00:23:30.920 at her as she tries to grab Jeff. Jeff, can we get like 289 00:23:30.960 --> 00:23:36.599 a can we get the cat noise? I was good? Yeah, and 290 00:23:36.640 --> 00:23:40.680 then for folks at home he did the little cat poor thing too, So 291 00:23:40.880 --> 00:23:42.720 yeah, of course the same part as the tiger. Can we get the 292 00:23:42.720 --> 00:23:47.839 other? Can we get the other cat noise that you did the I did 293 00:23:48.200 --> 00:23:53.960 a gentle tiger. It doesn't get very bad, yeah, because fucking I, 294 00:23:55.000 --> 00:23:56.960 because you know how I feel about cats, and you know, like, 295 00:23:57.240 --> 00:24:04.599 yeah, I love them. There's nothing to death. Uh. Spike 296 00:24:04.720 --> 00:24:10.720 mentions his name, and surprisingly Ed says that she's playing with chess master Hex 297 00:24:10.759 --> 00:24:15.000 in her e chess game. I'm playing that fool, that fool right here. 298 00:24:17.119 --> 00:24:21.200 This lets Jet track Hex to his location through the game, and it's 299 00:24:21.240 --> 00:24:25.200 a large junk yard full of red ships and spare parts from astral gates. 300 00:24:26.279 --> 00:24:30.640 That's good consistency there. Yeah. Yeah. Spike and Fay suit up and 301 00:24:30.680 --> 00:24:34.119 they take their ships out to explore, and eventually they pick a spot and 302 00:24:34.279 --> 00:24:38.160 enter on foot into that area, which surprisingly has oxygen, which means there's 303 00:24:38.160 --> 00:24:45.359 people about. Meanwhile, Jonathan has been following behind the Bebop discreetly, fucking 304 00:24:45.480 --> 00:24:49.160 Jonathan. Oh, this guy. Never trust anyone named Jonathan. Well that's 305 00:24:49.200 --> 00:24:55.759 my no one here names I agree. No, we got John. My 306 00:24:55.839 --> 00:25:00.599 brother is a John. Don't trust that. I don't. He's video links 307 00:25:00.599 --> 00:25:03.000 to Jet and tells him that he's got a good he's got a score to 308 00:25:03.000 --> 00:25:07.599 settle with Hex, which is why he's muscling in on this. Jonathan blasts 309 00:25:07.640 --> 00:25:11.920 the Bebop and disables it and then flies off towards the Bohemian junk Keep. 310 00:25:12.920 --> 00:25:17.799 In the junk Keep, Spike and Fay used locating devices to track the signal 311 00:25:17.880 --> 00:25:22.559 of Hex's E chess connection. They find a surprising environment of cats, dogs, 312 00:25:22.720 --> 00:25:27.200 plants, flowers, sleeping bums, and flock of birds in a community 313 00:25:27.240 --> 00:25:32.440 of bohemians living among the wretches. One of them says something that I found 314 00:25:32.440 --> 00:25:34.000 really funny. I can't remember the exact word, but he's like, yes, 315 00:25:34.279 --> 00:25:38.720 it's like a hippie ye, Like it's like a chill out dude, 316 00:25:38.799 --> 00:25:41.799 or like it's going to be a chill or At the end he's like, 317 00:25:42.000 --> 00:25:45.559 and it's cool for my wallet too, and what Yeah, it was. 318 00:25:45.599 --> 00:25:48.039 It was. It was strange, very weird. He's like high as fuck. 319 00:25:49.880 --> 00:25:53.880 Spike and Fay finally find HETX and they blast their way into Hext's room 320 00:25:53.960 --> 00:25:59.880 and confront him, only to learn that he is a snow old man. 321 00:26:00.400 --> 00:26:06.799 How is that as a twist? I don't think there's really a twist. 322 00:26:06.839 --> 00:26:10.240 That kind of assumed that a little bit. He thought he was a senile 323 00:26:10.279 --> 00:26:14.599 old man when he's like playing chess at such a high level. Yeah, 324 00:26:15.440 --> 00:26:18.839 time, Like, I think it is a bit of a twist because like 325 00:26:18.000 --> 00:26:22.759 you don't know what his deal is and then it's like, oh wow, 326 00:26:22.920 --> 00:26:27.400 like he's he's not really there anymore. He's not the person that instigated this 327 00:26:27.559 --> 00:26:33.200 crime. I think when they first introduce him as he's playing the game of 328 00:26:33.319 --> 00:26:37.680 chess, you are led to believe that he is this sort of like lucid 329 00:26:37.920 --> 00:26:42.920 chess master, shadowy figure guy. I don't know what it is, but 330 00:26:44.039 --> 00:26:48.079 I think when the reveal that he is senile occurs, something else has happened 331 00:26:48.079 --> 00:26:52.920 in the narrative pacing of this episode, where like I believed it very easily 332 00:26:52.960 --> 00:26:56.960 and was not shocked by it. So I can't really explain. I just 333 00:26:56.960 --> 00:27:02.359 don't think the reveal was that much of a reveal rather or twist, rather 334 00:27:02.799 --> 00:27:07.359 than just they sort of like, you know, a continuation of of where 335 00:27:07.359 --> 00:27:11.400 things were going. I kind of don't. I kind of wish he wasn't, 336 00:27:11.720 --> 00:27:15.319 I think, But again, obviously the way they've written this story, 337 00:27:15.160 --> 00:27:21.079 he has to be. You wanted an evil mastermind. I wanted some sort 338 00:27:21.079 --> 00:27:26.000 of more you know, interesting lore to follow up the fact that there was 339 00:27:26.039 --> 00:27:30.759 something cool about someone who's ninety eight and is still like a nefarious, you 340 00:27:30.759 --> 00:27:33.400 know, bad actor kind of person, Like I really like where it goes. 341 00:27:33.720 --> 00:27:37.960 Well, yeah, I get your point. I kind of like it. 342 00:27:37.000 --> 00:27:42.480 I like it. A bad guy isn't you know, evil? Everything's 343 00:27:42.480 --> 00:27:47.119 all thought through evil scheme. Shit, I just like a little little one 344 00:27:47.119 --> 00:27:49.799 off, you know. Yeah. I think the cool part of this in 345 00:27:49.839 --> 00:27:56.720 which we'll discover is how his uh him going senile has led to this sort 346 00:27:56.759 --> 00:28:00.319 of like unresolved thing, which I think is interesting. Yeah. Yeah, 347 00:28:00.400 --> 00:28:07.079 So Jonathan burst into a room to and points a gun at Hex and demands 348 00:28:07.079 --> 00:28:11.920 for the money that he lost in the Astro gate. Heck. Hex greets 349 00:28:11.960 --> 00:28:14.400 them by asking him to quiet down so that he can finish the game, 350 00:28:14.519 --> 00:28:18.599 and the three old men Antonio, Carlos and Job Him then jump down from 351 00:28:18.599 --> 00:28:25.720 the ceiling and great Hex. Hex is excitedly tells them about his new opponent. 352 00:28:26.160 --> 00:28:30.680 They seem to basically he seems to basically ignore Spike, Fey and Jonathan, 353 00:28:30.519 --> 00:28:34.480 and they have a conversation that basically reveals to them that Hex is seen. 354 00:28:34.480 --> 00:28:37.599 Now. Hex wants to have lunch, but the three old men tell 355 00:28:37.640 --> 00:28:41.480 him that he they already He's already had lunch, and He's like, did 356 00:28:41.519 --> 00:28:45.160 I enjoy it? What's going on? I was really caught off guard by 357 00:28:45.240 --> 00:28:48.559 the appearance of these characters. Yeah, these three have been around, haven't 358 00:28:48.599 --> 00:28:53.000 they? These episode one, and I think in the Casino episode as well. 359 00:28:53.160 --> 00:28:56.440 Yeah, in episode one, they talk about working on the gates, 360 00:28:56.599 --> 00:29:03.279 so it makes sense that he they'd be so fucking cool. Oh wow, 361 00:29:03.599 --> 00:29:10.799 that is cool. Yeah, Jonathan is sad over the money he's lost, 362 00:29:10.920 --> 00:29:15.440 and then he gets angry and starts like blasting ship with his gun like a 363 00:29:15.680 --> 00:29:21.119 fucking asshole. This guy behavior, you're taking it just like this one character. 364 00:29:21.799 --> 00:29:26.240 Everything his the faces, he's making this whole time, like he's doing 365 00:29:26.279 --> 00:29:29.400 this like the strange. He's such a baby. He's a big fucking adult. 366 00:29:29.720 --> 00:29:33.839 Relate to this unchecked aggression at all. I'm canning slightly. Yes, 367 00:29:33.960 --> 00:29:37.960 I think like I'm actually quite uncomfortable right now. All right, we'll get 368 00:29:38.039 --> 00:29:42.680 used to it. Listen. I think he also is needless in this episode. 369 00:29:42.720 --> 00:29:48.720 We don't need Jonathan's story. I don't need to. It's inconsequential. 370 00:29:48.119 --> 00:29:53.319 It's only a matter of time before this brother was one of us. Unrelated 371 00:29:53.359 --> 00:29:56.279 to the name that he's had nothing to do with. This feels yeah, 372 00:29:56.319 --> 00:30:00.160 it feels like there's some stuff here. Therapy Part two, Well, I 373 00:30:00.240 --> 00:30:04.759 have been lying down the time. This is helpful. Jonathan needs to stop 374 00:30:04.799 --> 00:30:11.759 taking his toys. Yeah toys in this episode, Yeah, toys in the 375 00:30:11.799 --> 00:30:18.359 attic was previous episode, uh Fay wonders what to do about Hex, as 376 00:30:18.400 --> 00:30:22.440 he's obviously not a dangerous villain. He's just a seen old man enjoying some 377 00:30:22.559 --> 00:30:26.720 chests and forgetting that he's had dinner. Spike says that Hex is basically no 378 00:30:26.799 --> 00:30:30.759 longer there and it's just an old man who likes to play games. Cut 379 00:30:30.799 --> 00:30:34.960 back to the Gate Corporation headquarters and Jets like, this is what happened. 380 00:30:37.039 --> 00:30:41.759 Hex set up an elaborate plan to kick in that year during the first automatic 381 00:30:41.920 --> 00:30:45.279 tech upgrade of the Gates. However, he became seenw and completely forgot about 382 00:30:45.319 --> 00:30:49.039 it. He laid a bunch of traps and even like set up people to 383 00:30:49.079 --> 00:30:53.319 behave in certain ways, and then just completely forgot. I love that, 384 00:30:53.359 --> 00:30:59.880 I love Yeah, that's great, it's great. Yeah, Jet is dense. 385 00:31:00.039 --> 00:31:03.519 I was doing his like vaguely threatening routine, and he promised, and 386 00:31:03.559 --> 00:31:04.559 they are like, how much money do you want to keep this a secret? 387 00:31:04.839 --> 00:31:10.000 And Jet says that he promises that he won't go public public with the 388 00:31:10.039 --> 00:31:14.480 information and the Gate defect stuff, on the condition that they just leave Hex 389 00:31:14.519 --> 00:31:21.119 alone and call off the bounty hunters, as Ed would be very unhappy if 390 00:31:21.200 --> 00:31:26.240 she lost her favorite chest partner, which is very cute. So I really 391 00:31:26.119 --> 00:31:32.119 love that line because I feel like it's the first time any of these characters 392 00:31:32.319 --> 00:31:37.079 have really put a bounty before anything, like even even jet like, even 393 00:31:37.079 --> 00:31:41.880 though he kind of did it for her sake, when he arrests his old 394 00:31:42.559 --> 00:31:48.480 Flames partner in it's like, you know, he got the bounty, and 395 00:31:48.519 --> 00:31:51.799 it's like, there's this this is the first time that any of them have 396 00:31:51.880 --> 00:31:56.640 been like they're all just in agreements. Hey, this guy makes Ed happy. 397 00:31:56.039 --> 00:32:00.599 We could cash him in for a bunch of money, but maybe it's 398 00:32:00.599 --> 00:32:04.319 more important that Ed's happy. And it's just I find it very sweet. 399 00:32:05.039 --> 00:32:12.279 Yep, yeah, yep, it's very nice. The question the Gates explain 400 00:32:12.359 --> 00:32:13.920 the Gates, Man, I know what they are on the show, but 401 00:32:13.960 --> 00:32:16.759 like, are they just sort of like toll booths? Are they likeyper space 402 00:32:16.799 --> 00:32:20.519 gates? Right, Yeah, it's just sort of like an on ramp for 403 00:32:21.440 --> 00:32:23.440 very fast travel. I think they're both. They're like a toll booth and 404 00:32:23.559 --> 00:32:29.599 also you can mass affect them. Cool, got it? Yeah, okay, 405 00:32:30.000 --> 00:32:32.319 and it just like takes the money as you go through. Sure, 406 00:32:32.359 --> 00:32:39.599 I'm a little easy past this might get it multipas mhm, Jonathan hasn't left 407 00:32:39.599 --> 00:32:46.400 the junk keep kind a bit crazy and it starts smoke like he's smoking now 408 00:32:46.400 --> 00:32:50.839 and he's a full on hippie with everyone else. He's a bohemian lad. 409 00:32:52.599 --> 00:32:57.319 He's actually quite friendly now and he waves at a pretty good guy. Yeah, 410 00:32:57.319 --> 00:32:59.799 I feel like I like him quite a bit now, Yes, cool. 411 00:33:00.119 --> 00:33:01.920 What do you think Lucy just charmed to him? Yeah? I think 412 00:33:02.000 --> 00:33:07.640 so. Yeah, Yeah, he earned it. What do you think, 413 00:33:07.720 --> 00:33:12.000 Jeff? I personally, no, I actually disagree with the three of you. 414 00:33:12.079 --> 00:33:19.240 I think he's just like an angry, annoying, inconsequential character who shoots 415 00:33:19.319 --> 00:33:25.319 up the room like a crazy person and really adds nothing of value to the 416 00:33:25.359 --> 00:33:30.799 expositional integrity of the episode. What is what is going on with Jeff? 417 00:33:30.599 --> 00:33:35.880 Jeff? What happened to you? I wonder something about it? I'd like 418 00:33:35.920 --> 00:33:38.359 I was watching him just like funck this guy so hard? Do you want 419 00:33:38.440 --> 00:33:46.960 to? I don't want to? Did you get that? No? Did 420 00:33:47.000 --> 00:33:51.559 not like did not like him? You know that's all? That's all? 421 00:33:51.680 --> 00:33:55.519 Good? Good episode? Okay. Meanwhile, Ed is still playing the same 422 00:33:55.559 --> 00:34:00.759 game of chess with Hex and it's been a week. She finally loses and 423 00:34:01.319 --> 00:34:06.880 uh to to chess Master. Hectx and hext closes his eyes, implying that 424 00:34:06.960 --> 00:34:10.719 he has died of old age as his pet bird flies away and drops a 425 00:34:10.800 --> 00:34:16.320 feather next to a chess piece. Oh right, I forgot he's dead. 426 00:34:16.480 --> 00:34:23.280 Yeah, he dies, He dies after beating Edward. Yeah, just closes 427 00:34:23.320 --> 00:34:31.400 his eyes. Little chess bird flies away. Yeah, that was very dramatic. 428 00:34:31.519 --> 00:34:34.880 It's like, you know, it's like it's like check me. King 429 00:34:35.159 --> 00:34:40.639 kings down, Man kings down. It's one more win before departing this existence. 430 00:34:40.840 --> 00:34:54.239 Chalk will not for chess master. Hects again. Good episode, I 431 00:34:54.239 --> 00:35:00.400 think overall, Yes, but I prefer the second one. Yes, nothing 432 00:35:00.440 --> 00:35:04.679 can prepare us for what we're about to. Oh okay, yeah, just 433 00:35:04.719 --> 00:35:13.000 because there's a shot of down some cleeve. Oh there's boxing that immediately that 434 00:35:13.000 --> 00:35:15.920 that was my voice, just now, that was my voice. Just now, 435 00:35:17.719 --> 00:35:22.400 what's all right? Not exactly a recording of me, but getting close. 436 00:35:23.800 --> 00:35:30.360 Yeah, there's there's there's abundance and an abundance of cleave and my Jeff 437 00:35:30.360 --> 00:35:37.559 impression. Yeah, okay, kind of like that. Come on, come 438 00:35:37.599 --> 00:35:44.119 on, that was good. Come on, Tam, you want to have 439 00:35:44.119 --> 00:35:45.599 a crack attitude? No, I'm good. I'm good. I think they've 440 00:35:45.639 --> 00:35:50.960 nailed it, so I don't think I need to add to it in any 441 00:35:50.960 --> 00:35:52.639 way. I mean, just so you can't do it, that's fine, 442 00:35:52.719 --> 00:35:54.920 just say I I can't do it. I can do it. Jeffler. 443 00:35:57.440 --> 00:36:01.119 Oh, I'm Joffler. I fucking love hockey and and pinball and sorry, 444 00:36:01.159 --> 00:36:07.519 Jeff, we're talking so to his Oh my god inside for some reason, 445 00:36:07.639 --> 00:36:12.000 I don't know what's going on as someone who's wearing a hat inside, you 446 00:36:12.039 --> 00:36:15.039 cannot do that. Ship Well, I am not wearing a hat. God, 447 00:36:15.159 --> 00:36:19.440 damn you tomorrow. Yeah, I think I think that's fairly dead on, 448 00:36:19.480 --> 00:36:22.440 which is no, you got the accent down, Pat for sure. 449 00:36:22.480 --> 00:36:25.559 I don't like doing it. Who is damn Dawn? Patrick? Are you 450 00:36:25.639 --> 00:36:30.119 down bad? Patrick? Yeah? Patrick Kappik. That's what we're talking about. 451 00:36:30.360 --> 00:36:34.119 This episode rules in so many ways. Cleavage is just the icing on 452 00:36:34.199 --> 00:36:37.280 the cake, is it not? Um? This made me fall in love 453 00:36:37.320 --> 00:36:45.000 with Faye for sure. There are so many absolutely stunning drawings of faith in 454 00:36:45.039 --> 00:36:47.840 this episode. Yeah, yeah, yeah, this is the episode designed to 455 00:36:47.880 --> 00:36:54.679 make her as hot as possible. I've got my my Fay print that I 456 00:36:54.679 --> 00:36:58.239 haven't put up yet. I don't know. I say that like every two 457 00:36:58.320 --> 00:37:04.280 fucking weeks we record, But are you I need to just reminded me. 458 00:37:04.320 --> 00:37:07.880 I've got like five or eight different princes. Hup. They need to find 459 00:37:07.920 --> 00:37:15.880 somewhere for my funny Valentine in the early twenty fifth century, Faye Valentine is 460 00:37:15.920 --> 00:37:20.079 being put into cryogenic sleep. You know, I don't think I would go 461 00:37:20.119 --> 00:37:24.480 into cryogenic sleep. Yeah, you can show how To with John Wilson. 462 00:37:24.760 --> 00:37:28.639 Yes, yes, love it. So he's not going to talk about the 463 00:37:28.639 --> 00:37:34.719 circumcision. Okay, no, no he did episode No you would know. 464 00:37:35.239 --> 00:37:37.920 I'm like a cryogenic sleep convention. Oh I haven't seen that? Is that 465 00:37:37.960 --> 00:37:43.599 from the new series? I haven't seen that yet. It's what wild people? 466 00:37:44.719 --> 00:37:49.039 Oh sure, I mean if you haven't seen Folks at Home how To 467 00:37:49.159 --> 00:37:52.199 with John Wilson. When the episode I think it's season one or two, 468 00:37:53.280 --> 00:38:00.400 starts with plastic furniture, keeping plastic on your furniture, You're gonna go on 469 00:38:01.079 --> 00:38:05.840 a ride. I was in a meeting at work, but I was pitching. 470 00:38:06.039 --> 00:38:07.719 We were talking about a series, and I was like, oh, 471 00:38:07.719 --> 00:38:09.039 what if we made it feel like how Too? With John Wilson? And 472 00:38:09.039 --> 00:38:12.079 people are like, oh, I'm not familiar. I'll go home. I'll 473 00:38:12.079 --> 00:38:14.920 watch a couple of episodes, and I was like, Okay, in my 474 00:38:15.079 --> 00:38:20.480 managerial capacity, I have to warn you about one episode. Kurt texted me 475 00:38:21.039 --> 00:38:23.159 that night with oh, my fucking god, and I was like, I 476 00:38:23.159 --> 00:38:27.679 did try money. I tried to warn you. There's nothing like it. 477 00:38:27.719 --> 00:38:30.239 There's nothing like that show. That's very good. I hope his landlady or 478 00:38:30.280 --> 00:38:34.360 his ex land lady is still alive, because she was so sweet. She 479 00:38:34.519 --> 00:38:37.719 is in season three, Yes the God, okay good. She would make 480 00:38:37.800 --> 00:38:43.719 him food and leave it outside. You're right there. You just smacked. 481 00:38:44.039 --> 00:38:46.079 I smacked the camera the microphone. I was too excited. Oh it's a 482 00:38:46.079 --> 00:38:51.800 great show. Several doctors and staff are lowering her into a storage unit with 483 00:38:52.000 --> 00:38:55.119 other spaces in there. Then in the present day, Jet and Ed take 484 00:38:55.159 --> 00:39:00.599 out some fish to eat, only to find that the fish is very frozen. 485 00:39:00.639 --> 00:39:04.880 He used to be evidence and it's full of poison. Now I kind 486 00:39:04.880 --> 00:39:09.320 of like Jet, Jet and Ed. I think they're kind of fun fundies. 487 00:39:09.920 --> 00:39:16.159 Little tandem there. Yeah, fun tandem for sure. Hm. Nope, 488 00:39:17.119 --> 00:39:22.639 not like that commentary. We're doing podcasts wrong. I'm not sure about 489 00:39:22.760 --> 00:39:24.719 I'm not sure about Now that I think about it, I'm not sure. 490 00:39:24.760 --> 00:39:27.920 I like them as a pairing. They are fun. It sounds like you 491 00:39:28.000 --> 00:39:30.320 know something we don't, but go ahead, I don't. I don't know 492 00:39:30.360 --> 00:39:36.679 anything. Forced to get any bounty he can, Jet decides to go after 493 00:39:36.719 --> 00:39:40.760 a con man who's seducing and defrauding women just so they can have a little 494 00:39:40.800 --> 00:39:46.039 bit of money for food, and he knows that Spike is probably not going 495 00:39:46.119 --> 00:39:49.760 to be up for this kind of bounty, so he's going to go on 496 00:39:49.800 --> 00:39:53.440 his own. I like that little take that like Spike really only wants like 497 00:39:53.760 --> 00:40:00.280 dangerous ship. He doesn't want to just like catch a con man exactly. 498 00:40:00.280 --> 00:40:04.400 He's going to go take a seventy eight minute shower instead, is what he's 499 00:40:04.400 --> 00:40:09.119 going to do. Yeah, So off he goes on his own to do 500 00:40:09.159 --> 00:40:17.079 that stuff. Phase waking up from her nightmare where she's being cryogenically frozen to 501 00:40:17.159 --> 00:40:22.280 the sound of Iron barking at her. She smells Iron's shit and realizes that 502 00:40:22.599 --> 00:40:28.559 she needs to clean his little box. During this, she tells Iin that 503 00:40:28.679 --> 00:40:31.880 he reminds her of someone and asks if he wants to know about her past. 504 00:40:31.880 --> 00:40:34.960 She's doing a thing where she's just talking to the dog for a little 505 00:40:34.960 --> 00:40:37.519 while, which is you know, fine, you can do that. Yeah, 506 00:40:37.559 --> 00:40:44.199 iin is uninterested, and then Fay starts her story. In twenty sixty 507 00:40:44.239 --> 00:40:47.960 eight, Fay is pulled out of water in her hospital walking from a long 508 00:40:49.119 --> 00:40:54.239 sleep. A doctor introducing himself as Bacchus confirms with assistant that she is reviving 509 00:40:54.559 --> 00:41:00.559 and happily talking to her about her condition. Yeah. I don't know about 510 00:41:00.559 --> 00:41:04.840 this backus guy. Yeah, I don't like him. It seems he seems 511 00:41:04.880 --> 00:41:07.880 like a rented doc, right, Yeah. Then he makes a joke about 512 00:41:08.159 --> 00:41:14.519 Bacchus and Bacchus and just Lucy. He also gets he gets all up in 513 00:41:14.519 --> 00:41:16.400 that cleave too. I don't know if you guys notice, Yeah, that 514 00:41:16.440 --> 00:41:21.159 was inappropriate. He gets his chin up in that cleve. He's like, 515 00:41:21.199 --> 00:41:24.239 oh this this half conscious. Are you upset because it's creepy or are you 516 00:41:24.320 --> 00:41:30.880 jealous? You have to make your own interpretation about that question. Cam Jeff 517 00:41:30.960 --> 00:41:36.320 got the most curious like facial expression I've ever seen him have when he said 518 00:41:36.320 --> 00:41:38.360 that sentence. He's kind of he went real low and then like looked up 519 00:41:38.400 --> 00:41:44.920 with his pew. It was very strange. Deliberately strange. No, of 520 00:41:44.920 --> 00:41:50.800 course I wasn't jealous of of a of a man getting too close for comfort. 521 00:41:51.079 --> 00:41:53.679 Okay, but there was a lot of cleave drawn there, and they 522 00:41:53.719 --> 00:41:58.840 went through that camera angle a bunch. I'm just saying, man might notice 523 00:41:58.880 --> 00:42:00.400 the cleve in the scene. True. I guess I was just paying attention 524 00:42:00.480 --> 00:42:05.480 to the story and not just like ogling anime women. Yep, whatever, 525 00:42:05.519 --> 00:42:12.920 we all have our hobbies. Okay, I mean it's almost He casually, 526 00:42:13.039 --> 00:42:16.880 uh gets to the matter of payment and ask his assistant, miss men Menley 527 00:42:17.159 --> 00:42:22.880 Manleys like that, Yeah, Madley, Miss Manley. I like that name. 528 00:42:22.000 --> 00:42:24.800 Miss Manley is pretty cool. You like another woman. You're great, 529 00:42:28.239 --> 00:42:32.760 Uh to figure out the amounts she's asked to do that the charges are brought 530 00:42:32.840 --> 00:42:37.159 up. She's she's pretty cool. Yeah, she seems awesome. She's great 531 00:42:37.159 --> 00:42:44.159 over computers, go with numbers. Perfect that, Jeff, now just waiting 532 00:42:44.199 --> 00:42:49.280 to get to the next bit here. The toll is like three hundred one 533 00:42:49.280 --> 00:42:53.440 thousand woolongs a million, a million, or three hundred million woolongs. Yeah, 534 00:42:53.480 --> 00:42:59.400 which also leads me to declare that I don't understand the conversion rate of 535 00:42:59.400 --> 00:43:01.840 a woo law. I thought this was a lot. It is a lot, 536 00:43:02.119 --> 00:43:06.360 but also it's not a lot, so it is a lot. Oh, 537 00:43:06.360 --> 00:43:07.760 I think it's I think it's just a lot. Like this is more 538 00:43:07.800 --> 00:43:13.039 than they've ever gotten, right, But like are like, what what do 539 00:43:13.119 --> 00:43:16.679 you think of one wulong being equal to a dollar? Yeah? I do 540 00:43:16.679 --> 00:43:20.760 you think it's one to one? I mean it's basically what a euro is 541 00:43:20.800 --> 00:43:27.440 now to a dollar more or less? Why can it is like nineteen thousand 542 00:43:27.760 --> 00:43:30.599 wulong and then split between three people? It's not a lot, but then 543 00:43:30.599 --> 00:43:34.639 at some point jets like I added a zero on there, so it's something 544 00:43:34.679 --> 00:43:37.800 like one thousand, nine hundred. Yeah, yeah, okay. Fay is 545 00:43:37.960 --> 00:43:43.840 very disorientated and asks the doctor who and where she is. Miss Manley confirms 546 00:43:43.840 --> 00:43:47.039 that phase not acting and has truly lost all her memory of who she is. 547 00:43:47.519 --> 00:43:52.639 But it shocks mister doctor backus this scene. Also, remember I said 548 00:43:52.639 --> 00:43:58.880 at the start of our show here that it did appear that Cowboy Beatbob perhaps 549 00:43:58.880 --> 00:44:01.320 took a little bit of inspiration from the fifth Element. I think this this 550 00:44:01.400 --> 00:44:05.679 scene in a lot of ways, almost the you know, the the sort 551 00:44:05.679 --> 00:44:09.440 of machine design and stuff like that. I know it's not solely unique to 552 00:44:09.519 --> 00:44:14.679 any of these pieces of art, but like this really did feel like a 553 00:44:14.760 --> 00:44:19.880 fifth element moment of like Leelu coming out of the whatever that machine is where 554 00:44:19.880 --> 00:44:23.440 they recreate her. It could be there is a very similar machine in a 555 00:44:23.519 --> 00:44:29.480 Kira, which is which predates fifth em and I'm sure so yeah, anyway, 556 00:44:29.480 --> 00:44:32.079 but there's probably a lot of machines like this. Totally, totally, 557 00:44:32.599 --> 00:44:37.000 yeah, there's there. There is a bit of that of I do think 558 00:44:37.000 --> 00:44:42.079 of fifth elements peppered around all of these episodes, which is probably one of 559 00:44:42.079 --> 00:44:45.719 the reasons I love it so much. Later in the hospital bed, Faye 560 00:44:45.760 --> 00:44:52.000 is a push by a lawyer named Whitney Hagis Matsumoto, which is the weirdest 561 00:44:52.079 --> 00:45:00.000 name I've ever seen. Yeah, that's that's like Hagis isn't hag hagis an 562 00:45:00.039 --> 00:45:05.239 Irish Scottish Scottish. Let him have it. Let him have it, John, 563 00:45:06.000 --> 00:45:10.880 John, but I've got close ish you have there are part of the 564 00:45:12.039 --> 00:45:15.800 different race of people, Jeff. It's not it's not a race of people, 565 00:45:15.920 --> 00:45:27.760 is it is? It was? It was it ethnicity. We're like 566 00:45:27.800 --> 00:45:31.199 a nationality nationality, so we're just all the same. Is that what I'm 567 00:45:31.239 --> 00:45:38.039 hearing? White people are the same to you, Jeff Yes, Whitney Hagness. 568 00:45:38.079 --> 00:45:44.360 Masato says that he'll look right now so that he'll help her, as 569 00:45:44.360 --> 00:45:46.039 he's done some research in the case and reckons that he can help out. 570 00:45:47.079 --> 00:45:52.440 He informs her that she was in an accident fifty four years ago, no 571 00:45:52.519 --> 00:45:57.760 way, fifty four years ago, and at twenty years old, she was 572 00:45:57.840 --> 00:46:02.039 frozen. She can't believe it, and he tries to prove to her as 573 00:46:02.039 --> 00:46:04.960 he tries to prove to her what's happening, because she's like, oh, 574 00:46:04.960 --> 00:46:08.119 this is a I know what's going on. This is a TV. Yeah, 575 00:46:09.000 --> 00:46:14.599 this is so funny. It's great. Oi'll pass yeah, yeah, 576 00:46:14.760 --> 00:46:21.559 which is real fun Yeah. That night, Faye tries to escape the hospital, 577 00:46:21.599 --> 00:46:25.119 but she trips an alarm. She makes the highway, but it doesn't 578 00:46:25.159 --> 00:46:30.599 get that far. Eventually, Masmato finds her and assures her that he'll help 579 00:46:30.639 --> 00:46:34.079 her make the payment little by little, and she goes with him and he 580 00:46:34.119 --> 00:46:37.440 buys her elaborate meals. He's getting her new clothing. He sweeps her off 581 00:46:37.440 --> 00:46:43.320 her feet and calls her his sleeping beauty. I really wish we didn't have 582 00:46:43.360 --> 00:46:45.719 a song here. This song song was a bit weird. We don't do 583 00:46:45.840 --> 00:46:52.000 this song. It is completely out of character for Cowboy Bebop in every possible 584 00:46:52.039 --> 00:46:59.480 way. All of a sudden, this breaks into some weird ass saccharine montage 585 00:46:59.519 --> 00:47:02.280 song, and I'm just like, what the fuck is this? This man? 586 00:47:02.880 --> 00:47:07.559 This almost ruined this episode for me. I think I love the visuals 587 00:47:07.599 --> 00:47:12.559 of this scene so much that I shud it. Like there's one shot and 588 00:47:12.719 --> 00:47:15.079 it's Fay just like sitting in the car and like her hair is blowing in 589 00:47:15.119 --> 00:47:22.159 the wind, and it is just one of those fucking perfect nineties anime aesthetic 590 00:47:22.199 --> 00:47:24.239 shots and it's only on screen for like a second and a half, but 591 00:47:24.440 --> 00:47:32.800 god damn, it's just wah beautiful. Yes, I think the exposition is 592 00:47:32.800 --> 00:47:40.360 successful, the music not so much. Oof. Also, I wanted to 593 00:47:40.400 --> 00:47:45.280 bring up I think it's really cool that we have a good understanding, well 594 00:47:45.280 --> 00:47:50.679 at least selfishly for me being someone who always wants to know exactly where we 595 00:47:50.719 --> 00:47:57.000 are in time and whatnot, this episode does give you a very specific calculation 596 00:47:57.199 --> 00:48:02.360 of where in time Boy Bebop exists, Like you mean you mean yeah yeah, 597 00:48:02.519 --> 00:48:06.920 Like the year, which which I believe to be is now twenty seventy 598 00:48:06.960 --> 00:48:12.920 one, Okay, I need that, you need? Yeah, but does 599 00:48:13.000 --> 00:48:16.719 that know what I mean? Are you going to get what did you call 600 00:48:16.760 --> 00:48:20.480 it? Like, disappointed in the future if we're not? Yeah, do 601 00:48:20.800 --> 00:48:25.480 you think we're gonna get there? I'm disappointed in the future because from my 602 00:48:25.599 --> 00:48:30.920 childhood perspective, we're all in it, and let me tell you, fucking 603 00:48:30.079 --> 00:48:35.639 sucks. Okay, it's all broken, nothing works. Okay, it's just 604 00:48:35.639 --> 00:48:38.320 a bunch of robots who can't talk to each other. That's the future we're 605 00:48:38.360 --> 00:48:43.599 living in. And I wish, uh we had I had the foresight to 606 00:48:43.840 --> 00:48:52.320 not look towards the future future with such hope and fondness. You're really missing 607 00:48:52.880 --> 00:48:55.320 you? Is your root broken? Is that? Is that what happened? 608 00:48:58.000 --> 00:49:00.599 I feel like you're having a having some sort of melt I'm based on. 609 00:49:00.679 --> 00:49:04.679 Like, no, it's an internet issue. I just I'm disappointed with the 610 00:49:04.719 --> 00:49:08.519 future that I think the future does in fact suck. Okay, cool, 611 00:49:09.119 --> 00:49:14.599 okay, but yeah, I just you guys aren't disappointed by by modern techniques. 612 00:49:14.639 --> 00:49:16.239 I'm just so present, you know. Yeah, I mean like we've 613 00:49:16.239 --> 00:49:21.440 got but we've got personal computers in our pockets, you know. Yeah, 614 00:49:22.960 --> 00:49:25.599 electric cars, Yeah, there's cool. Just the fact that we can even 615 00:49:25.639 --> 00:49:31.880 do this podcast is a miracle of modern science. Basically basically on three three 616 00:49:31.880 --> 00:49:36.440 different corners of the world here and we're just yeah, which is you know, 617 00:49:36.559 --> 00:49:38.280 it's it's a beautiful thing. Like, isn't it something like one in 618 00:49:38.440 --> 00:49:44.199 four kids born these days will live to see a hundred There's no way to 619 00:49:44.239 --> 00:49:46.599 know that. I heard about it on a podcasting. I think that's an 620 00:49:46.639 --> 00:49:52.679 insane thing to assign to a child right now, do you guys know the 621 00:49:52.719 --> 00:49:53.760 who had it? Right? I hope I die before I get old, 622 00:49:53.880 --> 00:50:00.079 but also the who is still fucking touring? So yeah, because I I 623 00:50:00.119 --> 00:50:02.920 always thought like, if you have a problem with someone, the way you 624 00:50:04.000 --> 00:50:08.599 win is get real healthy, outlive them, and then talk ship at their 625 00:50:08.639 --> 00:50:15.840 funeral. Is so demonic? Kids? Oh wait, I'm sorr. Who 626 00:50:15.840 --> 00:50:19.960 are we talking about? Just your enemies? Oh okay, yeah, this 627 00:50:20.079 --> 00:50:25.360 fine? My kids and my enemies. That's a sort of like revenge. 628 00:50:25.440 --> 00:50:30.119 That oh man, that is a it's just dark and there's so much effort. 629 00:50:30.599 --> 00:50:34.400 But like you're also getting back at someone who is now dead. That 630 00:50:34.519 --> 00:50:38.119 wies it matter because you win? Yep? What could you outlive them? 631 00:50:38.280 --> 00:50:43.599 Yeah? Well you live them and you ruin their funeral and they can do 632 00:50:43.679 --> 00:50:46.480 nothing the ultimate and like, but you have the thing is like, if 633 00:50:46.519 --> 00:50:51.920 you decide to do it to one person, you can just fold other people 634 00:50:51.960 --> 00:50:54.000 into it because you're already going to live a long time. It's just it's 635 00:50:54.000 --> 00:51:00.639 a beautiful plan. Yeah, it's beautifully psychotic. I think we Lucy, 636 00:51:00.679 --> 00:51:04.480 back me up here. This is yeah. I'm with John. Is good. 637 00:51:04.559 --> 00:51:07.920 We're we're all are principle. I love it, But I'm too nice. 638 00:51:07.960 --> 00:51:10.119 I couldn't do it. I couldn't do it. Seems like a lot 639 00:51:10.119 --> 00:51:15.840 of effort living living well is the best revenge about people over glass of wine 640 00:51:15.920 --> 00:51:23.360 is even better at their funeral. Though, you have to be really wronged 641 00:51:23.559 --> 00:51:28.840 to put this kind of determination into a revenge plan. I just gotta say, 642 00:51:29.079 --> 00:51:34.320 Okay, something truly horrific must have happened to you to do to want 643 00:51:34.360 --> 00:51:42.360 to do this to a person. Maybe someone just confuses your nationality. Very 644 00:51:42.440 --> 00:51:49.760 good, very very good. Well played play. One day that driving from 645 00:51:49.800 --> 00:51:53.880 being out when they're pursued by the insurance agency. Apparently the hospital and the 646 00:51:53.920 --> 00:51:59.559 doctor have had enough. Matsmato says is a collection agency, and he drives 647 00:51:59.599 --> 00:52:01.800 the other way. He trives off. The writing tells her to run for 648 00:52:01.840 --> 00:52:07.760 it so she can escape. At least as runs, she sees the car 649 00:52:07.000 --> 00:52:12.880 explode, or she sees an explosion in the distance and realizes that Masamoto has 650 00:52:12.920 --> 00:52:20.840 died. Sadly at the hospital, finds that Masumoto named her his soul air 651 00:52:20.920 --> 00:52:24.480 and benefactor, and has left all his assets to her. I find that 652 00:52:24.599 --> 00:52:30.360 scene like upsetting, like insane, Like she doesn't even go to look at 653 00:52:30.360 --> 00:52:35.719 it before accepting. Yeah. She She's like, she's like, wow, 654 00:52:35.760 --> 00:52:39.760 he ready to care about me. She accepts the assets by basically signing on 655 00:52:39.800 --> 00:52:50.960 the diadeline using her think of fingerprint doctor. Really yeah, And so what 656 00:52:51.000 --> 00:52:53.239 happens if you die? Does your debt get passed on to your kids? 657 00:52:53.239 --> 00:52:54.920 I don't. I'm not aware. I don't have kids. I don't have 658 00:52:57.039 --> 00:53:01.400 does get I think there's a statute of limitations that I do believe that you 659 00:53:01.440 --> 00:53:06.079 can inherit debt. I feel like if that was a common thing, we'd 660 00:53:06.079 --> 00:53:08.440 see way more movies about it. It's hard to do, but it's still 661 00:53:08.480 --> 00:53:14.440 doable. Well, you know you have to. You have to in the 662 00:53:14.599 --> 00:53:16.840 in the sense of well, I don't want to ruin the story here but 663 00:53:16.880 --> 00:53:22.039 like, it's not. It's not just like a thumb print, right, 664 00:53:22.119 --> 00:53:23.360 Like, there's a lot of things that have to happen for it to be 665 00:53:23.400 --> 00:53:27.519 trained. Debt is inherited by someone else. Instead, it passes to the 666 00:53:27.639 --> 00:53:30.039 estate during probate to the executive. The state typically pays off debts using the 667 00:53:30.119 --> 00:53:36.480 state's assets first, So like selling houses, okay, credit card debt cannot 668 00:53:36.480 --> 00:53:42.760 be inherited. However, shared debt will likely still need to be paid. 669 00:53:43.480 --> 00:53:50.599 Have we had a con No, I don't think so. My mom used 670 00:53:50.599 --> 00:53:55.280 to do a like probate and wills and deeds and stuff, so you'd think 671 00:53:55.320 --> 00:53:58.840 I would have known any of that. I also used to work in that 672 00:53:58.880 --> 00:54:04.280 field. Was like, I worked in various legal firms for like five years, 673 00:54:04.400 --> 00:54:07.000 so I should have known something some time. You have a legal education, 674 00:54:07.840 --> 00:54:10.079 Yeah, yeah, he's a lawyer, right, aren't you like a 675 00:54:10.159 --> 00:54:14.239 lawyer. I'm not a lawyer. No, but I do have a law 676 00:54:14.280 --> 00:54:20.400 degree, got it? Yeah? Anything else? Any other questions? Objection? 677 00:54:22.000 --> 00:54:27.920 Thank you? Back in the present day? Well, sorry, she 678 00:54:27.920 --> 00:54:31.360 she accepts the debt, and then she is shown that the only assets he 679 00:54:31.480 --> 00:54:36.239 has is debt. Sorry, she accepts the assets and all he has is 680 00:54:36.280 --> 00:54:40.920 Debt in the present day wraps up the story, and just as she does, 681 00:54:42.519 --> 00:54:45.280 she has the toilet in the bathroom right next to her flush and then 682 00:54:46.000 --> 00:54:51.079 a Spike walks out and she's like, how long have you been there? 683 00:54:51.519 --> 00:54:54.000 And he's like a long time. Your story needs editing, which is I 684 00:54:54.039 --> 00:54:59.920 love that line, which is a great line. Spike is then like give 685 00:55:00.199 --> 00:55:02.840 her some grief that she might have made up the story since she's done it 686 00:55:02.880 --> 00:55:07.199 so many times. But then Jet returns with a bounty and it turns out 687 00:55:07.239 --> 00:55:15.440 this bounty is Matsumoto himself. Three years Yeah, three years later he's put 688 00:55:15.519 --> 00:55:22.320 on a bit away the three year thing. So that puts Faye at twenty 689 00:55:22.360 --> 00:55:25.400 three. Yeah, so no one likes to meet to me, that's insane. 690 00:55:25.480 --> 00:55:30.320 That that's like Fay is like late twenties at least. That is that 691 00:55:30.400 --> 00:55:37.000 is a worldly woman who has learned some tricks. Technically she is older than 692 00:55:37.039 --> 00:55:40.880 she true is yeah, true, but not in experience, I mean just 693 00:55:40.960 --> 00:55:46.519 in existence in the in the world. She's frozen for fifty years, right, 694 00:55:46.840 --> 00:55:51.159 yeah, And that is a callback to when we first meet her. 695 00:55:51.719 --> 00:55:57.239 There is like she is like the she's like a lucky woman, like a 696 00:55:57.280 --> 00:56:00.440 figure of legend, and at some point they miss it. They mentioned that 697 00:56:00.480 --> 00:56:02.639 she might be way older than anyone knows, and I think it's kind of 698 00:56:02.639 --> 00:56:07.280 interesting that. No, you get the kind of second part of that. 699 00:56:07.039 --> 00:56:15.639 Yeah, yeah, yeah, so you're you're saying you wish not that you 700 00:56:15.679 --> 00:56:19.960 wish she was older, that she appears like she is in her late twenties. 701 00:56:20.000 --> 00:56:22.719 Yeah. The way she actually stuff would lead me to, like, 702 00:56:22.880 --> 00:56:25.519 would lead me to believe that this is not a twenty three year old three 703 00:56:25.599 --> 00:56:30.239 years on the run though probably ages. Yeah, I'm going to say, 704 00:56:30.239 --> 00:56:35.199 because sometimes she does shit and I'm like, oh, she's nineteen, yeah, 705 00:56:36.440 --> 00:56:44.000 faye, keep her above twenty one if we could nineteen White General, 706 00:56:44.840 --> 00:56:51.159 Wrong Village. Ohay, she is portrayed and the sexualization of her in this 707 00:56:51.280 --> 00:56:54.400 show. Let's let's not have her be a teenager. I mean, you 708 00:56:54.440 --> 00:56:58.440 know, some might say, I'm sorry if my colls can't get on board 709 00:56:58.480 --> 00:57:01.119 with that, I'm beholder, Jeff, So, oh, you're right, 710 00:57:01.800 --> 00:57:06.239 what a weird and unique opinion of mine that she is sexualizing this? Okay, 711 00:57:06.320 --> 00:57:08.079 Yeah, no, I have to called that out because whenever you say 712 00:57:08.119 --> 00:57:14.480 anything in anime is like over sexualized or inappropriate the immediate Twitter avatar responses, 713 00:57:14.679 --> 00:57:22.599 well, maybe only you're seeing that, and it's like I Fay realizes that 714 00:57:22.639 --> 00:57:25.079 she was just another one of Matsumoto's marks. At this point, since he 715 00:57:25.199 --> 00:57:30.199 is a his bounty was he's been tricking women. He says. The doctor 716 00:57:30.239 --> 00:57:35.639 who's now supposedly dead was protecting him and he had to cooperate with him, 717 00:57:36.039 --> 00:57:39.440 and now he's he regrets everything that happened. The police arrived to make the 718 00:57:39.519 --> 00:57:44.199 exchange for the bounty, but Faye decides that she's got on finished business with 719 00:57:44.280 --> 00:57:46.760 him and abducts him in the Red Tail. I love that, Yeah, 720 00:57:46.840 --> 00:57:51.760 I love how she like put stuffs that guy into the space Shift and like 721 00:57:52.639 --> 00:57:57.559 you know, gives gives Spike and Jet like the finger on our way out 722 00:57:58.239 --> 00:58:02.119 the fuck up this guy's mind. That's awesome, yea. So she wants 723 00:58:02.159 --> 00:58:06.239 to get answers about him about what was real and what was part of the 724 00:58:06.280 --> 00:58:10.880 scam. Spike in the Swordfish to pursue her and eventually Like hits her, 725 00:58:10.920 --> 00:58:15.280 shoots her, and then she pleaded with Masima to tell her the truth, 726 00:58:15.320 --> 00:58:20.239 but before he can the police communicate with her. Faye recognizes the voice of 727 00:58:20.280 --> 00:58:24.559 the cop and it turns out it's Bacchus and Manly. I kind of like 728 00:58:24.599 --> 00:58:29.920 Bacchus. I think like he's just the bumbling kind of idiot. Wherever did 729 00:58:29.960 --> 00:58:35.039 the English voice acting? Pretty good performance, you know, like I enjoyed 730 00:58:35.119 --> 00:58:37.480 that. Fay is frustrated with the lies, and she starts to realize that 731 00:58:37.559 --> 00:58:42.960 he she doesn't really know what's going Oh, he doesn't really know what's going 732 00:58:43.000 --> 00:58:46.440 on. Bachus says that he gave her the name Valentine and he doesn't know 733 00:58:46.440 --> 00:58:51.599 who she is either. Then the real police arrive and demand their patrol ship 734 00:58:51.639 --> 00:58:59.920 back because Bachus apparently stole it. So Bacchus and Manley decide to flee and 735 00:59:00.079 --> 00:59:04.760 leave Matsumoto behind, where Faye is now determined to claim the bounty on him. 736 00:59:05.320 --> 00:59:07.079 It sounds like, mister Pagets, are you even a doctor? Yeah? 737 00:59:07.239 --> 00:59:12.239 Look what's exactly going on here? Well, what's happening once, sir? 738 00:59:12.719 --> 00:59:15.039 Once math Somoto is in custody, he tells Faye that he knows one 739 00:59:15.280 --> 00:59:19.519 true thing. He fell in love with her while she was in cry of 740 00:59:19.519 --> 00:59:22.800 sleep. But immediately he follows up I saying just kidding, I was lying. 741 00:59:22.960 --> 00:59:29.000 Also, Matsumoto is Bacchus's nephew, which is weird. Yes, should 742 00:59:29.039 --> 00:59:32.480 find out it's your uncle, she says. Yeah. As I leave the 743 00:59:32.519 --> 00:59:37.800 police headquarters, Jet gives Faye her third of the bounty, which is nineteen 744 00:59:37.159 --> 00:59:42.400 eight hundred woolongs, but we lay alone that is actually one nine hundred and 745 00:59:42.400 --> 00:59:46.280 eighty. She's dismayed out how little it is. And yeah, we learned 746 00:59:46.280 --> 00:59:50.400 that Jet actually added a zero to the toll and that is the end. 747 00:59:50.440 --> 00:59:54.639 Does that mean the episode Jet donated more money, like that's what he did? 748 00:59:54.639 --> 00:59:59.960 Okay, I just want to make sure accidentally. Yeah, but yeah, 749 01:00:00.199 --> 01:00:05.280 this episode's great. This episode is I just think, uh, really 750 01:00:06.320 --> 01:00:12.719 upper echelon of quality and kind face character. Jeff, Yeah, I think 751 01:00:12.719 --> 01:00:16.599 it's I think I needed some of that background for her. What I will 752 01:00:16.599 --> 01:00:21.800 say is we have some more of that coming. Like there are some fucking 753 01:00:21.960 --> 01:00:25.840 fantastic Fay episodes. It's great. Yeah, I really enjoy it, and 754 01:00:25.880 --> 01:00:29.840 I enjoy that like there's no you know, as much as I say I 755 01:00:29.840 --> 01:00:31.440 need things answered, I like the fact that, like you know what we 756 01:00:31.440 --> 01:00:36.280 we just don't know who you are depending on you know, as it goes 757 01:00:36.280 --> 01:00:42.760 to your reanimation story. I love it. I love it. I you 758 01:00:42.840 --> 01:00:47.760 know, uh, I was this episode flew by? Yeah, and like 759 01:00:47.800 --> 01:00:53.000 it really I think like it's not just giving you like this backstory of Faye 760 01:00:53.000 --> 01:00:55.920 and like, oh, this is who she was. It really informs why 761 01:00:57.000 --> 01:01:00.119 she is the way she is and how she's kind of like you know it. 762 01:01:00.119 --> 01:01:04.199 It implies a lot about how she's had to learn and scam and navigate 763 01:01:04.239 --> 01:01:07.239 the world and why she's in this line of work. It's really great. 764 01:01:07.519 --> 01:01:14.480 Yeah, it explains It perfectly explains her entire character profile. And it's you 765 01:01:14.519 --> 01:01:22.039 know, no notes, what great. Thank you. Yeah, we'll let 766 01:01:22.079 --> 01:01:25.320 him know that you liked it. Is he alive? I don't know if 767 01:01:25.360 --> 01:01:28.400 he's still alive. I think it still he is. He actually a new 768 01:01:28.519 --> 01:01:34.719 series that's either coming out or I think it's coming up. Well, I'm 769 01:01:34.760 --> 01:01:38.840 not to look into that.
