It's the summit of a snow-capped mountain. He looks down and sees a land of pure white below him, glistening in the light. Last minute he's picked up by an airplane. Jet's story (from the English dub, 'The Real Folk Blues, Part 1'): Jet is also a very logical person who doesn't like to let things get to him. He's got tons of stories, and this isn't the first time he's told Spike one of them. Jet is a wise man, and a natural storyteller. Anyway, both stories are loaded with symbolism. If you manage to see this episode without understanding both characters and the fundamental difference between them, you obviously weren't paying very close attention (though, everything's so animated so beautifully, who could blame you?). In the last (2-part) episode of Cowboy Bebop, Spike and Jet each tell a story that is very revealing of each character's nature.
