Faye Valentine quotes from Cowboy Bebop

[on a tape] And now a big cheer from my heart. Let's... go... me, all right! Do your best! Do your best! Don't lose me! Let's go, don't lose, don't lose me! Do your best! Do your best! Me, me, me! Don't lose, don't lose! Me, me, me! Go me!

Faye

[tearfully] I can't remember.

[strolling about] Faye-Faye! Smoke-smoke, Faye-Faye! Puff-puff, Faye-Faye! [Faye comes out the bathroom]

Faye

My name's Faye, not "Faye-Faye". You just say it once, okay? [Ed comes to Faye with her computer on her head]

Faye-Faye! Some weird mail came-came for Bebop-Bebop!

Faye

[sighs] I would've been able to pay it off if I had just a little more time. Would you hold still? [holds Ed's head, reads mail on computer] Hmm... "Hello, boy. You are invited to a wonderful party"? Wait a minute... this is... All right, don't tell Spike about this. It's a secret, okay?

But why? Faye-Faye, why keep it a secret?

Faye

If we don't, that lunkhead—

Spike

Will run right out to the party? [Faye sees bandaged Spike behind her]

It's secret mail-mail from Mars. [Spike reads mail; Faye leans down on a wall]

Spike

It's Space Land. Nice place to hold a party, don't you think?

Faye

Yeah, you're gonna go like that? It's uh, perfect for a masquerade, isn't it? [Spike looks at his left hand for a moment]

Spike

Maybe this is the one, the one I won't come back from. The end. [Faye is worried] Just playin' with your head. Would you rescue me if it were true? [Faye pauses for a beat]

Faye

..Lunkhead.

[waving about] Lunkhead-lunkhead-lunkhead! [laughing]

Faye

What do you think, Spike?

Spike

They make a good couple.

Faye

I think it's a dangerous combination.

Spike

And why's that?

Faye

The more righteous a guy was back in his youth, the more likely he is to fall for some young thing when he gets older.

Spike

Is that right?

Faye

Definitely. Men are extremely predictable.

Spike

What're you up to?

Faye

Take a look over there. Jet's got a friend.

Spike

Hm? [sees Meifa and Jet in the main room] Ohh...

Faye

It's a fine romance.

Spike

She's too young for that.

[starts crawling and singing] Hot-dog bun, not too young!

Faye

Maybe she's got a thing?

Spike

Nah, 'fraid she's too old.

[crawling back] Oldy, moldy, history, mystery!

Faye

A horse, huh? I thought it sounded kinda fishy when you said you'd nab him while you were out foraging.

Spike

What do you mean?

Faye

I mean you spent all our food money, didn't you?

Spike

I what?

Faye

What'd you blow it on? [Spike points to horseshoe prints on his back]

Spike

If I'm lying, then how the hell do you explain this on my back?!

Jet

Okay, okay, chill! I totally buy the horse.

Faye

You do?

Jet

But you're lacking creativity in the cowboy character. He's lame.

Faye

Yeah, maybe that's the problem.

Jet

Perhaps if he was a samurai instead?

Faye

Now that I wouldn't question.

Jet

Andy really pushes your buttons. What is it about him that gets you so bent?

Faye

I know why he hates the guy. They're too much alike. [Spike angrily slams his fist on the table]

Spike

What part of me could be anything like that stupid ass?!

Jet

The part that makes you so damn troublesome.

Faye

Mm-hmm.

Faye

You told me once to forget the past. Cause it doesn't matter. But your the one still tied to the past, spike.

Spike

Look at these eyes. One of them is a fake, because I lost it in an accident. Since then, I have seen the past in one eye, and the present in the other. So I thought I could only see patches of reality, never the whole picture. I felt like i was watching a dream I could never wake up from. Before I knew it, the dream was finally over.

Faye

My memory..... Finally came back. But.... Nothing good came of it. There was no place for me to return to. This was the only place I wanted to go. And now your leaving just like that. Why do you have to go? Where are you going? What are going to do, just throw your life away like it was nothing?

Spike

I'm not going there to die. I'm going to find out if I'm really alive. I have to do it, Faye.
