Samurai Champloo 7
The bunch is lucky in gambling! (Or Fuu has just a lucky animal^^). By the money they’ve made, they go eat some noodles. Sounds nice, but Fuu is pickpocketed. By some Kid. We already had the brat, this is the kid. They all go after him, Mugen just knocks out people and only then he checks if the Kid is there too, Jin attacks tea houses and excuses himself then, and Fuu is waiting somewhere. The Kid comes home to his mother. The mother is ill, can’t live long. We already know then that the Kid is pickpocketing because he wants to buy a decent medicine. It’s just too sad. He is hiding it from his mother to not make her worry.
The next day, Fuu meets the mother. The mother thinks that Fuu is his girlfriend and they have a conversation about her son. Fuu doesn’t tell her that her son is a criminal. In the village, she meets the son again, but because the Kid has some pickpocketing records, other people find him as well. They want their opium back. Fuu starts yelling and the kid drags her away to a place. But.. when the cops come, the kid has no choice. 
He takes Fuu hostage. They run into a building after the Kid threatened that he would killed Fuu. Fuu isn’t afraid of him at all, and they talk. Fuu totally understand his situation, because her mother has passed away, and her father left her a long time ago. She understands everything, and just when they were planning to escape, Mugen sees Fuu. ^^ And goes berserk because he recognizes the kid as well. And what do you do then?
Yes. You knock out the police. ‘What is he for guy?’ they all ask. Jin has the perfect answer: ‘An Idiot’. And he is so right. The Kid manages to get his first escape, gets caught. And is mudered, while Fuu watches. The episode ends when Fuu told the Kids mother about her son.
