"Too long. Your story needs editing." Spike's to cool.
Spike looked disgusted after the story.

She may be old but her debt and property she got from that man may have contributed to her current job as a bounty hunter. I wonder if she even has the slightness idea of paying those debt. Looking at her no, I'd say she put her past behind her.

I feel sorry for her.
But at the same time, she's lucky because she gets to see the future and the year we're in right now.
I'm glad Faye got her "revenge".

It's Faye's turn, and we take a look at her past, or better yet, we actually don't!

The episode had some pretty funny moments, but overall I would consider it the weakest of this second half. Nevertheless, this episode had this bit of sarcasm, Faye does what she does to Spike and the others, but she as well was constantly trolled by past by this guy ^^

Also, Ein with eyebrows xD and the fact that Faye is actually a

Spike had some great dialogue in this episode, liked it. :)
Was good to see a little bit more about Faye.
Ein once again was awesome though.

Absolutely awesome episode. More background, I think this adds to the characters and really deepens the series. Better than less episodes with no depth at all! :)

Honestly, I liked that episode a lot.
It shows that even her one memory that was somewhat sweet to her... turned out to be a pile of dung after knowing he was actually alive and put his debt on Faye on purpose.
That's reality for you.

I was kinda mad at some coincidences through the episode, but the information in the end about the fat bastard being the doctor's nephew put everything together, it was all a plan.

I'd never have expected this kind of background for Faye, let's see what else they have in store for her.

"I was kinda mad at some coincidences through the episode"

While the show's almost totally episodic format makes it seem more sophisticated than a lot of shows on a storytelling level, this is where it hurts. Sometimes it's more satisfying for a story to take its time and flesh out elements slowly, even drably, than to whiz right by and compensate with fluid animation and tons of original music.

Faye is not an old lady. She was cryogenically frozen which means her body nor mind didn't age because they were preserved. =.=

This episode was all right. A little disappointing. :P

I don't know what to think of Faye, I usually don't enjoy her character type, but with episodes like these, she may yet grow on me.

Good episode in all.

So was the Doctor Guy and the nurse con people too? I guess they would be since the "lawyer" happens to be the Doc's nephew, but do they usually thaw people out to steal money off of them?

intereting that she managed to make such a name for herself in just three years of being in a futuristic world.
that seems pretty impressive
"Urushibara Ruka. The mannerisms and voice of a woman... No... More feminine than any woman. But he's a guy. Taller than Mayuri, but so very thin... But he's a guy. Looks great in a miko outfit... But he's a guy. It's already twilight And yet, it's so hot. The cicadas are crying. But... He's a guy."

19800 Woolongs. That's pathetic. Loved the development and past insight of Faye in this episode. Imagine waking up to a future you never wanted and never know, and not even know about your own identity. A technical reference to one of Japanese's oldest literature: Urashima Tarou.

Rolling back 54 years from 2068, that would mean Faye was cryogenically frozen during this year - 2014.

Great episode!

Nice to see Faye's past and how she was cryogenic and woke up 50 years later while retaining as 20 year old woman.

Since Whitney Hagas said it's been 3 years now, Faye is already 23 physically by this show :)

It's kinda weird to think that Faye is technically 50+ years old! Then again we had that episode where the kid couldn't age due to radiation, so it's not that bad.

Would love to stay physically in my 20s even if i'm already in my 50s!

Despite all the lies, at least Whitney Hagas did fell in love with Faye. It's just a shame they had to deceive her, but i'm glad Faye didn't broke down or anything.

Also what was this gate accident thing? I think i remember this in the first few episodes, so that it?

Oh well i hope we could learn more about Faye's past. It seems she's quite similar with Spike and how both were "experimented" on.

Love Otsuka's voice!! He really sound young in this compared to his voice today ^^

Sasuga Big Boss!!

Can't wait for the next episode!! Seems it's gonna appeal to old people :P

Well, this didn't explain much about her character, except maybe her disdain towards debts.

Guess she was already a bitch before her memory loss.
And another mindless betrayal...

I really appreciate that the bounty hunters don't pretend to like each other, it's not like in other shows where the team automatically works together. It's really great that if you try to screw over everyone else, the rest of the bounty hunters will not go easy on you
