Episode 17 - Mushroom Samba

Once again, the crew of the Bebop are out of food and someone's eaten the last emergency ration. As they're arguing about who's to blame, another ship crashes into them, sending them crashing onto the planet below. Jet and Spike try to fix the ship, sending Ed and Ein out to get food. Faye is in the bathroom, sick from eating the emergency ration, which expired a year before. Ed and Ein search for food, but cannot find any. However, they find the ship that collided with them and follow it.

Climbing into a car, Ed and Ein go to the city where they see an man eating a hot dog who does not share it with them. Another man comes up and accuses the hot dog eating man of killing his older brother with bad mushrooms. The man flees, dropping some mushrooms, one of which Ein eats and goes crazy.

Ed brings them back to the Bebop and gives one to each crew member. As a result, Spike believes that he is climbing up the stairway to heaven, Jet believes his bonsai trees are telling him the secret of the universe, and Faye believes that she's swimming in an ocean of fish. Meanwhile, Ed and Ein are watching big shot and see Domino Walker, the hot dog eating man who gave them the mushrooms. As they decide to go after the bounty themselves, the woman whose car they climbed in (who also happens to be a bounty hunter) chases after them. Ed and Ein find Domino Walker, who is in the ship that collided with the Bebop.

Chasing Domino, Ed and Ein are joined by the woman and the brother who had confronted Domino earlier. Chaos. Eventually, Ed takes the mushrooms instead of the guy, thinking that the mushrooms are worth millions. Instead, they turn out to be shi*ake mushrooms.
