- Jet reunites with his ex-partner to track down a recently released criminal. While he's away, Spike and Faye try to pick up a quick job.
- Five years prior to meeting Spike, Jet, then a senior detective with the ISSP, and his partner Fad (Wade Williams) go after Udai Taxim (Matthias Luafutu), a Syndicate associate, hoping to learn the name of the dirty ISSP cop he's working with. Jet believes the dirty cop to be Chalmers. Jet gets the drop on Udai, only to be shot several times and left for dead. He survives but is subsequently framed as the dirty cop based on the testimony from Udai and serves five years in prison.
In the present, the Bebop crew learns that a prison ship from Pluto crashed on Europa and dozens of inmates escaped, including Udai. Udai carries a bounty of $45 million on his head. Jet leaves Spike and Faye to pursue the other bounties (although they wind up spending the rest of the day bonding with each other instead of working), while he and Fad reunite to find Udai. Spike did not consider Faye as a serious bounty hunter until Faye recited her war stories of how she took down some of the most ruthless outlaws in space. Spike also loves Faye's concept Shower-Bath-Shower as a hygiene sequence and wants to learn more about the loofah.
Jet says that Udai will try to escape Europa with fake papers to try and get past the spaceport security. Jet and Fad go to the fake papers guy named Dagmar. Jet still believes that Chalmers set him up that night and pulled the trigger. Chalmers was the first on the scene and made the case to put Jet away.
Jet and Fad catch up on old times as they travel to Dagmar's joint. Fad's son has graduated at the top pf the class at his academy. They find the fake papers that Dagmar is preparing for Udai. They find that Udai will be coming by to pick up his papers in a few hours. Jet finds that Chalmers is also at Dagmar's establishment. Fad creates a distraction for them to escape without having to run into Chalmers.
Now that they have burned Dagmar, they know that Udai will not return there to pick his papers. Jet figures that the only way Udai get off Europa without proper papers is in an interplanetary container freighter. He would be stowed away in one of the container boxes. He could slip into the container boxes unseen at the sorting station.
Jet finally catches up to Udai hiding inside one of the containers, but Fad kills him and reveals that he was the real dirty cop. Fad was working for the Syndicate as their inside man. Jet kills him in self-defense despite knowing that he will never be able to fully clear his name and leaves as Chalmers arrives. Chalmers admits that he knew Fad was dirty. If he got to Udai first, he would have testified against Fad. Chalmers lets Jet go, as he has already done his time.
Vicious meets Mao, together with Julia. Vicious proposes that they join forces to remove the Elders, as they both are doing activities that the Elders disapprove of. Mao says that the Temple is impenetrable and once there it is impossible to survive Kobun's blades. Vicious proposes that he, Mao and Santiago (Blessing Mokgohloa) The Enunuch, take over once the Elders are displaced. Mao wants Julia to sing for her in exchange for her support. Vicious walks away, but Julia sings.
Later, Julia realizes that Mao had given Gunther as an assassin to Vicious, but Gunther was killed instead. She realizes that only Fearless had the skill to kill Gunther, which means Fearless is alive.
