The Japanese anime series Cowboy Bebop consists of 26 episodes, referred to as 'sessions'. Most episodes are named after a musical concept of some sort, usually either a broad genre (e.g. 'Gateway Shuffle') or a specific song (e.g. 'Honky Tonk Women'). The show had an aborted first run from April 3, 1998 until June 26, 1998 on TV Tokyo, broadcasting only episodes 2, 3, 7 to 15, 18 and a special. TXN canceled the show in June 1998 because of low ratings. Later that year, the series was shown in its entirety from October 24 until April 24, 1999, on the satellite network WOWOW. In the U.S., the series was aired repeatedly after 2001 on the Cartoon Network's Adult Swim.[1]

| Spike Spiegel, a bounty hunter, and his partner Jet Black head to the Tijuana asteroid colony on their ship, the Bebop, to track down a bounty-head named Asimov Solensan. Asimov is wanted for killing members of his own crime syndicate and stealing a cache of a dangerous combat drug known as Bloody-Eye. On the colony, Asimov and his girlfriend, Katerina, are ambushed at a bar by his former syndicate while attempting to sell a vial of Bloody-Eye, but Asimov fights his way out by using the drug himself. Spike later encounters Katerina and reveals to her that he is a bounty hunter searching for Asimov; Spike is assaulted by Asimov and nearly killed before Katerina intervenes. In the confusion, Spike steals Asimov's Bloody-Eye vial before the two leave. Spike later confronts Asimov at a staged drug deal with the stolen vial. Asimov escapes with Katerina in a ship when the two are interrupted by an attack from the syndicate. With Spike giving chase in his own ship, Asimov takes another dose of Bloody-Eye as they rush towards a police blockade. Katerina, realizing they will never escape, shoots Asimov as Spike nears their ship.

At a bar, Hakim's briefcase containing the animal is stolen. Spike discovers the thief attempting to sell the animal at a pet store and, assuming him to be Hakim, holds him at gunpoint. The case contains a Welsh corgi. As Spike leaves the store, Hakim attempts to take the dog back; the dog escapes, prompting Hakim, Spike, and the group of scientists who had illegally experimented on the dog to give chase. Spike loses Hakim but gains possession of the dog. Jet gives the dog a collar tracking device so he can pinpoint Hakim's location once he inevitably steals the dog back. Spike takes the dog for a walk in order to flush out Hakim. The scientists activate a dog whistle to find their 'data dog', resulting in the corgi escaping from Spike. All the city dogs including the corgi run past Hakim. Hakim steals a car and grabs the dog, while Spike and the scientists pursue him in their ship and truck, respectively. The dog manipulates the car door and jumps out. Spike reluctantly saves it by having it land on top of his ship. The scientists use the truck's harpoon to attach to Hakim's vehicle. This causes both vehicles to lose control and crash over the side rails of a bridge. They fall onto a police station and are apprehended.

The dog, named Ein, now lives on the Bebop, much to Spike's chagrin. | |||||||

However, faced with the threat by Murdoch's sons of releasing the virus on Ganymede if she isn't released, the Ganymede government cancels the bounty and forces the Bebop crew to release her. When Murdoch and her sons renege on the deal and launch the virus anyway, Spike and Faye pursue her through the hyperspace gateway. They destroy two of the three missiles, but miss the third one, prompting the Ganymede government to shut down the spacegate, stopping the missiles by trapping them in hyperspace. Spike and Faye narrowly escape the gate before it closes, but Murdoch and sons are trapped.
