This episode flirts with the main spike storyline but never gives it the weight of the anime. Also, the whole series doesn’t understand the moody tension of the original. While I love the new Faye actress, her side story steals from the main plot line in ways that kills its weight. The old bebop wouldn’t have tossed in a story to give Faye something to do. They would have left her out entirely and focused on the story it wanted to tell.
