Scenes with Spike Spiegel 66
[Spike is unable to figure what toxin Jet has in the database]
So what is it? [hears Ein barking] Ein, give it a rest, would ya?
Spike Well, this is not an ordinary rat. [Ein keeps barking] Huh? Ein, keep it quiet!
So what could it be, then?!
Spike Well, it's a—
A mystery space creature! [Spike and Faye gasp; she runs upstairs] Spooky! The attack of the horrible alien!
Spike Well, yeah... That is possible, I suppose. [scoffs] Oh yeah, right. [Ed suddenly jumps down next to Spike]
Then what is it? It's not in the database, right?
Spike Well, uh— [Ed points]
Look! These pairs are abnormal.
Spike Uhh, you think so?
Ed has never seen this before. [Spike grumbles] So what else could it be but a horrible alien, huh? What ?
Spike Maybe it's... something like a rat went through a mutation and it evolved... and turned into some kind of unusual creature, and secreted this new form of mysterious poison.
Oh, that's brilliant. Right out there with Ed's theory that it's a horrible alien! Really pitiful.
[Spike gets into his Swordfish II getting a lead on Julia, turns to Jet]
Spike I'm gonna go look.
Spike I'm gonna go look for my woman. You can go look for the other one.
So you're not gonna help me, are you? [long pause] That's it! You've really gone too far. Then don't come back, there won't be a place for you. [Spike puts his coat in the cockpit]
Spike That's your call, pal. [Jet grunts] Anyway, at least you won't be lonely now, not with your weird roommates.
My roommates?! That's why you've been staying here?! You're being stupid! It's been three years since I teamed up with you, but I never knew you had such ridiculous ideas about this thing. What a joke! And I thought you were the one who was lonely!
Spike I'm glad we cleared that up.
Good riddance! [walks off, Spike gets into ship] At least I'll be able to keep some food in the place now! [Spike inserts engine key] I never did understand you, right to the very end!
Spike I don't understand, either.
Spike [confronts Vicious and Lin] Are you seeing Julia behind my back?
Spike Lin. You've gotten pretty big.
He doesn't work under you anymore, Spike. Things are different now.
Spike Like you using her name for your scummy drug deals? I truly pity her for that.
If there's anyone who needs pity here, it's you.
[Spike carries up a slowly dying Gren into the cockpit of his ship]
I get it now. You're the one, aren't you? You're Spike. [sees Spike's different shades of brown in his eyes] Julia was always talking about you. Your eyes are different colors. I remember her saying that. [Gren's eyes are watering] Said you get a strange feeling if you keep looking straight into his eyes.
Spike Where'd you meet her? Where was she?
Right on the corner bar stool. She'd slip in when I wasn't looking. And she'd ask me to play the same song every time she came in. Strange lilting tune, and then she would smile. Ohh, what a smile. So sad... so beautiful.
So, listen, guys. Why don't we all pony up the information we have on this case, and agree to spilt the bounty three ways. Whaddaya say?
Spike You're kidding, right? You're the one who said to work separately. "Each one gathering the facts and examining them"?
Occasional rivalry between comrades is healthy. I believe that's the way you put it.
[Spike and Faye crash into Chessmaster Hex's room, aiming him at gunpoint]
Spike Chessmaster Hex, I take it.
Don't try anything. Understand?
H Hex
You both... [turns to see Spike and Faye] Well, could you just be a little quieter, please?
[Spike and Faye look confused at each other; Jonathan appears between them]
J Jonathan
Old man... [starts growling with anger] Hand it over! [aims his heavy gun at Hex's face]
Spike Hey, hold on a minute!
J Jonathan
Pretending to be senile won't get you out of this.
J Jonathan
Either you give me the money you took, or I put a hole right through your brain!
H Hex
[chuckles as he touches his gun] That's quite a large pipe there.
[Faye has just poured out her life story to Ein in front of the bathroom. Spike flushes the toilet and emerges from the bathroom stall next to Faye]
[grumpy] How long were you in there listening, Spike?
Spike Too long. Your story needs editing.
You think it's safe to leave 'em alone?
Spike Worried about him or her?
I'm afraid she might let him escape or something.
Spike Well, she'd have to have a heart to do that.
Don't be fooled 'cause she acts tough. Babes like her are the first ones that go soft when it comes an old boyfriend.
Spike Is that right?
Women are hopeless. They don't work on reason.
[as Faye pushes Whitney into her ship, she aims her gun at Jet and Spike trying to come over]
Stay back! We're leaving! [Jet and Spike stop at their tracks]
She wants the guy instead of the money.
Spike Jet caught him! It's his reward, Faye!
I have some history to work out with this guy, so I claim first rites to him and to the bounty that's on his head!
Spike [dumbfounded] Is it just me, or did that not make any sense?
Just like I said, women don't work on reason.
[arguing over empty rations] We haven't had anything to eat in two days! Wouldn't you call that an emergency?!
Spike I want some bell peppers and beef...
We're out of fuel, end of story. If we can just hold out a little longer, our inertia will carry us to Europa.
If we only we could use that energy to fuel ourselves...
Keep mouthing off like that and I'll toss you out into absolute zero.
Spike At this point, even Ein looks good enough to eat.
Watch it, Spike. I bet you're looking pretty good to him too.
[Spike continues walking up an endless stairway and sees a frog]
F Frog
Hey, mister. [pause] This here is the stairway to heaven. You know that, don't cha?
Spike ...Obnoxious little frog. [continues walking up]
F Frog
Fine, why should I care? I warned you, though!
[Jet holds a cassette-sized package to Faye on her way back from the horse race]
What? Where did that come from, huh?
Special delivery for you.
Well, I didn't order anything.
It was COD. [Faye grunts] Top it off, there's no return address on it. I had no choice but to accept it and pay your ta— [Faye slowly reaches the handle and shuts the cockpit door] Hmm? Hey, hold on! [Faye flies her ship away from the Bebop deck] Hey, I want my money or else!
Spike [turns away from fishing] She's a busy girl, huh?
[Spike and Jet walk through a submerged corridor to a museum underground]
Tell me again why in the world we're going through all of this?
Spike It's a lesson to remind you that treasure hunts are always trouble.
Treasure hunts? What treasure are we hunting?
Spike Tamatebako, was it?
When he opens the Tamatebako, he turns into an old man. Now I know why.
Spike Even if we turn back now, we wouldn't be any younger.
[Jet stops on his tracks, looks down to see a catfish-like creature suckling on his right leg]
This place is some Ryūgū-jō... [grabs fish off his leg and throws it] Where'd that minx run off to, anyway?
[Jet tries to put the Betamax tape into a VHS player]
Spike What's wrong?
Spike What about it?
It won't go in. [tries forcing tape in]
Spike Push harder.
But it's... [Ed comes behind them]
Aah, that's the wrong one!
M Miles
Hey, do people ever tell you you don't talk much?
Spike Hey, do people ever tell you you talk too much?
