Can I quote a non-verbal moment from the start of
'Trash' where Mal walks in with tissues up his nose and Wash pulls a magnificent face?

"Some people juggle geese, and that's OK with me."
i love that one

This one i can't exactly remember but its something to the effect of:

Zoe: Excuse me capn', but his man has to tear my clothes off.
Wash: Work work work

YES! awesome lol

*EDIT*

I remembered another:
IN...Shindig i think....

Mal and Inara walk in

Janye: Capn'! we were just about ready to spring you out. We had a complicated plan and everyhting.

Wash: Yes, and i was going to watch, it was all very exciting!

From the script

MAL
You get that beacon sent?

WASH
(much with the resentment)
Yeah, it's sent.

MAL
Good.

WASH
(under his breath)
Pointless.

MAL
What was that?

WASH
Nothing, sir. It's a brilliant plan, I'm sure
we'll all be saved.

MAL
Getting a little weary of this attitude, Wash.

WASH
Are you? Well I'm very sorry about that, sir.
I guess the news that we're all gonna be purple
and bloated and fetal in a few hours has made me
little snippy.

MAL
It's possible someone might pick up the signal.

WASH
(pissed)
No, Mal. It's not possible. Nobody's gonna pick up
the damn signal. You wanted us "flying under the radar,"
remember? Well, that's where we are: out of range of
anyone or anything.

MAL
Then make it go further.

WASH
What?

MAL
Make the signal go further.

WASH
Can't make it go further.

MAL
Not if all you're gonna do is sit here and
whine about it, no.

WASH
What do you expect me to do, Mal?

MAL
(building)
Whatever you have to. And if you can't do it from
here, then you put on a suit and get out on the side
of the boat and...

WASH
(voice rising)
And what? Wave my arms around?

MAL
Wave your arms around, jump up and down.
Divert the nav sats to the transmitter.
Whatever.

WASH
Divert the...? Right. Because teenage pranks
are fun when you're about to die!

MAL
Give the beacon a boost, wouldn't it?

WASH
Yes, Mal. It'd boost the signal, but even if some
passerby did happen to receive, all it'd do is muck
up their navigation!

MAL
Could be that's true.

WASH
Damn right it's true! They'd be forced to stop
and dig out our signal before they could go anyplace!

A beat as Wash let's what he just said sink in. He snaps:

WASH
Well, maybe I should do that, then!

MAL
(snapping back)
Maybe you should!

WASH
Okay!

MAL
Good!

WASH
Fine!

"That's right, of course. Because they wouldn't arrest me if we got boarded. I'm just the pilot. I could always say that I was flying the ship by accident.

"Some people juggle geese!"

"Oh my god, it's grotesque! Oh, and
there's something in a jar."

and then later:

(in the background,
to the jar)
"Do not fear me. Ours is a peaceful
race, and we must live in harmony..." Never have I laughed so hard.

"We gotta go to the crappy town where I'm a hero."


In the ep, The Message where his head was grazed by the bullet when Tracy shot him. Just the way he said Ow was so darn funny. Like he wasn't sure. and of course the This Land quote.

I think the Wash quote that made me laugh the hardest was in Heart of Gold when Zoe suggests a three point watch in four hour shifts and Wash wanting to be important but doesnt know what to say except
"Three point. Four hour. Should do it,"

It's just the way he says it that cracks me the hell up everytime

Did he just go crazy and fall asleep?

Kaylee: "Is it just me, or did Cap'n seem kinda funny to you at breakfast this morning?"
Wash: "C'mon Kaylee, we all know I'M the funny one."

Zoe: "Too much frou-fa-rah for me. If I get a dress, I want something with some slink."
Wash: "You want a slinky dress!? I can get you a slinky dress! Cap'n, can I have some money for a slinky dress?"

Wash: "Police procedure has changed a lot since I was little..."

Wash was always good for a great line.

One of my favorites was when they were discussing River's psychic abilities.

Wash: "But that's science fiction!"
Zoe: "We're on a spaceship dear."
Wash: "So?"

Something like that.
