Line 43:
* [[Indy Ploy]]: Thinking on his feet is definitely one of Spike's strong suits. Just look at his plan in "Heavy Metal Queen," which involved him {{spoiler|going into space without a suit!}}
* [[In Harm's Way]]
* [[Jerk Withwith a Heart of Gold]]
* [[Jigsaw Puzzle Plot]]: His past is told in such a fashion.
* [[Lightning Bruiser]]
Line 145:
* [[It's All About Me]]: Faye is definitely the most selfish of the crew, who are a generally self-interested bunch.
* [[I Work Alone]]: Or so she wants to think.
* [[Jerk Withwith a Heart of Gold]]
* [[The Lancer]]
* [[Multiple Choice Past]]: At first. One of Faye's early lies about herself is that she's [[Roma]].
Line 171:
Oh Ed, Ed, Ed... where to even start with Ed? Ed is probably the world's foremost hacker, and is not shy about using her talents to cause mischief. A 13 year old demented genius, Ed was living alone on Earth and occasionally being hunted by the police when she [[Viewer Gender Confusion|(he?...)]] first encountered the Bebop crew. The crew was chasing a bounty in a case where someone was believed to have hacked into an old [[Kill Sat]] and started using it to carve designs into the planet. Naturally, Ed was the prime suspect, but since Ed was aware of the Bebop crew and was a fan of theirs, (oddly enough, since the crew manages to blow every bounty and live in [[Perpetual Poverty]] because of it) she [[Viewer Gender Confusion|(he?...)]] let them in on a secret: the real perpetrator was the satellite itself, whose program had a degree of awareness, a fact that Ed had recently discovered. In return for giving them this information and helping them deal with the rogue satellite, Ed only asked to become a member of the Bebop crew, a proposition Faye agreed to without telling anyone and later tried to back out on. Unfortunately for Faye, hacking the Bebop's computer, controlling it by remote, and getting it to land where she wants it not exactly a difficult task for Ed.
 
After this Ed's legendary computer skills would be at the disposal of the Bebop crew, and it would come in handy in several cases. Ed would also get her [[A Day in Thethe Limelight|day in the limelight]] during the show's [[Mushroom Samba]] episode. This would continue until {{spoiler|Ed and Faye simultaneously begin closing in on chasing down their pasts, in Ed's case in part through Faye's encouragement that finding the place where you belong is the best thing a person can do. To that end Ed posts a fake bounty on her [[The Ditz|ditzy]] father who good-naturedly and absentmindedly abandoned her years before. (Well, maybe more like left her off with someone and half forgot that she ever existed). The two briefly reunite, but Ed hesitates at joining him, and good old dad starts running off again. Quite possibly realizing that the place where she belongs is neither with dad nor aboard the Bebop, Ed leaves both, wandering off into the sunset accompanied only by Ein.}}

* [[Meaningful Name]]
* [[Nietzsche Wannabe]]
* [[Never Bring a Knife Toto A Gun Fight|Never Bring A Sword To A Gun Fight]]: [[Averted Trope|Averted]] for the most of the series, though it's mostly because of [[Katanas Are Just Better|different]] [[Conservation of Ninjitsu|tropes]] that he's able to cut through multiple gun-toting opponents

* [[Immune to Bullets]]: It seems his body has some sort of [[Energy Shield]] that protects him from gunfire. {{spoiler|It doesn't protect him from knives however}}.
