In the BDM when simon is complaining about river doing the thing with the people, he gives the captain a shot of something. Ive seen the film twice, but can never catch what its for. Anyone care to enlighten me?

Innoculation before they go down to the planet.

Mal makes mention of needing one just before.

When Mal and Simon first come face to face during the big one-shot, Mal says that he'd best get "innocked" before they land. So it's some kind of immuno-booster because they're landing on a new planet.

Plus, it's an easy way of saying "Simon is the doctor on the ship" to those who need it told.


(Doh! Not quick enough! )

Keep shiny!

thx for that. Much clearer. I think i was having one of those moments like in Safe where no one can understand what Malcom says to Simon.

Oh, the "Gotta say doctor, your talent for alienating folks is near-miraculous" part? I watched the scene over and over and over trying to figure out what he was saying, lol. Thank god for this site, or I woulda never known, lol.

wow, thanks for explaining, I saw it my 4th time yesterday and once again thought 'whats going on there? must find out' and promptly forgot about it.

so they're not introducing a hard hitting drug abuse storyline for the next film? shame...

Not unless Joss decides to explain that syringe that Inara pulled out when the Reavers were after them (in the pilot episode Serenity, I think).

Ain't about you, Jayne. It's about what they need.
