Well it looks like as things draw closer to an end, some of the characters are starting to leave. Still a very good episode, although all of them have been, but it did make me sad when Ed left, she has to be the best character.

Wow awesome episode. Loved the music in this one and whelmed up a little at ending scene when they'd left and Jet and spike were eating their share, pulled the old heart string.
On a brighter note rofl when Ed's dad couldn't remember her gender.

My favourite episode yet

"This is the father person."

I love how they infuse humor into this series. Sad to see Ed and Ein (and Faye?) leave the crew, though most of these posts make it sound like the last eps make it necessary for them to go...

I have a love/hate relationship with this one. Seeing Ein, Ed, and Faye all leave is so sad. You can really tell that the series is coming to an end :( I wish there were more than 26 episodes.

Just a great episode! Great back story and story development but damn everyone split up! Only 2 left, where it all started again! Will we see them again? How about Faye?

Still great episode, really nice story in this one!

Ed is so funny, maybe my favorite character on the show (its hard to choose between her and Ein!), so it sucks to see her sad when her dad straight out leaves her and doesn't give a shit. Well, hopefully her and Ein find where they belong...

All these episodes are mind blowing. They fit so much information and feeling in less than 30 mins. Truly amazing.

Brilliant episode, it's always great to have another character-focused one. The extra back story for both Ed and Faye was hugely satisfying and that closing musical montage for both of them was fantastic. Not a lot of action this episode but it really didn't need it either, definitely one of the best ones in the series. 9.5/10

I almost cried what a sad ending..!
Spike looking out of the window at Ed's message while the sun was going down.. They prepared eggs for everyone but in the end they had to eat them all..
Even though a lot of stuff happened in this ep based on the replies here, what left a mark was the ending... And the music fits perfectly, this anime is truly a work of art..

The ending of this episode is probably as good as any ending I've seen in anime. The eating scene had so much meaning to it. Before the departure of their crew members, they had so little to eat. Now they have 5 bowls filled with eggs but no one to share it with. They feel empty inside, but they don't show it explicitly, instead they took it out on the eggs.

Episode 24, 25 & 26 were the perfect end to this brilliant anime.

LOL "Thanks for taking care of my son. Or was it my daughter?" No one knows if Ed's a boy or a girl XD
And Ed's father is really good at fighting to just block all of Spike's attacks like that O__O
Faye finally remembers her past...
How do Spike and Jet eat eggs like that?!
Also, EdxEin forever! lol

Awww, the feels were strong in this one. It's a good representation of what happens constantly in life: you meet people, make memories with them and one day, they leave. Bittersweet, but that's life...

I have to confess I didn't expect this. It's the original crew again from the first episode; before they picked up Ein, before they met Faye, before they met Edward... it being just the two of them again leaves a longing, melancholic sense of loneliness... and I think they felt it too. That egg scene was their way of saying, "We'll miss you guys." So sad...

I'm hoping this isn't the last we see of them.

On another note, I feel like Edward's presence was actually more appreciated amongst the Bebop crew than with her own father. Sheesh, what an uncaring lunkhead.

EGG THEORY:

I read somewhere why there were eating all of those eggs like that, and I got sad all over again because I think this is what it meant. We saw that Ed's dad gave them all of those eggs, and Jet was cooking them for dinner. Spike and Jet set out dinner plates for Faye, Ed, and Ein in case they came back. You can see four plates and a dog bowl full of eggs. After they finished theirs, they realized that they weren't coming back, and they ate their food (and in an almost melancholic way), too. It was almost like they were accepting it and that was their way of showing their sadness (or something).

This ep really got me. At the end when it showed that they put up Ed's pin wheel that she gave Spike, man, that was sad. "Call Me, Call Me" is one of the best songs one OST, imo. This was one of my favorite episodes because it had both humor and drama. It really showed that the Bebop crew really did care about each other.

Oh, thanks, I didn't quite get it XD

Anyway, away goes Ed (and Ein)...

I wanted an Ed back story episode, but not quite like this. Poor Jet. But Ed's dad is awesome.

I keep telling myself, "There's still two more episodes. Two more. They can still get back together. Right?" All my tears.

Greatest episode thus far. I was kind of disappointed during the middle half of the anime as it proved to be not much different from many of the 90s space operas I have come across, however, the characterisation and development of this episode was sublime. The two dudes eating the eggs while the soundtrack played stumped me. Four plates and a dog bowl...I guess it is time for everyone to find their own destiny. As a watcher myself, the mood evoked through both music and scenarios was seriously surreal. Even if I am not part of them, I can literally feel the sorrow of Jet and Spike as they waited, but did not act out of their typical nonchalance. It is like,"I want to find them, yet I don't want to force them." 6/5.

Oh yes, Singapore 57 years from now. Destroyes due to overpopulation at 6.9 million.

Faye must be Singaporean... Wouldn't think the Merlion would be anywhere but there (in Singapore), and I even know/have been to the first Merlion she saw - the one in the video. XD

Guess you're the only one pointing this. Indeed, as a Singaporean, it is Singapore during the late 90s, with a lot of palm trees and serene scenery during that period of time. Singapore today looks rather disgusting IMO.

Considering I didn't think myself too attached to these characters, seeing Faye and Ed make their departure hit me surprisingly hard. Maybe it's because I'm going through a similar separation in my own life. There is a sense of finality here that is really well captured.

the rest of the crew ^ - ^
