Cowboy Bebop
Season 01
E10 - Ganymede Elegy
Jet is even more taciturn than usual as the Bebop lands on Ganymede, his last post before leaving the ISSP (Inter Solar System Police). He visits his ex-girlfriend, Alisa, at her bar. She is planning to leave with her boyfriend, Rhint, since the bar is going to be foreclosed and she has several debts. Jet holds no animosity towards Alisa but wants to know why she left him with just a pocketwatch and a note that said farewell. She brushes him off, offering platitudes, and doesnt explain until the end. After Spike gets a tip about a bounty on the head of Alisas boyfriend, Jet tells him to leave it, vowing he wont let them escape as he used to be the type of cop who never let things go. He corners them both and Alisa says her boyfriend only has a bounty on his head because he killed a man trying to come after her for debt money. She finally tells Jet she broke up with him because she never got a chance to make her own choices or mistakes. Although Rhint does get arrested, Jet thinks he may get out on self defense charges. As Jet leave his planet and his former love, he tosses the broken pocketwatch, heeding Alisas words that time does not stand still and so he moves on.
