Ok....heres my 10 in descending order.... Although I feel I must give an honorable mention to Kaylee staring at her dress hanging up at the end of Shindig.

10: Its a toss up between "Bastard doesnt have days!" in WS and Inara crying in HoG

9: Simon saying "Light it!" in Safe

8: "Everyones so Mad!" in Pilot

7: "I have no problem with the idea of you not shooting anyone!" in OiS

6: "You found me broken!" in Safe

5: "Ya think anyones just gonna drop money on ya?" in Jaynestown

4: "I am a leaf on the wind watch ho....URK" in BDM

3: "Dont tell em what I done... Make something up!" in Ariel

2: "Would I still be allowed to dance?" In the River Tam Sessions (Just heartwrenching)

1: I think we can all agree on this one... "Ya'll gonna be here when I wake up?" In OoG....(It ruins me everytime.)

Yeh I love that at the end of Out of Gas when Mal asks 'Y'all gonna be here when I wake up?'. Really brings a lump to my throat. Mal comes across as this tough, self centered rogue but you realise when he asks that, the crew of Serenity are very important to him as a family and he could not survive without them. At the end of the day he's an honourable and good man who would lay down his life to save any 1 crew member of Serenity. That's why that scene tugs on the heart strings

I agree completely. I watched this episode earlier today, and I felt a lump start forming in my throat at this scene...

Even though I've seen the episode plenty of times already, I think the reason this scene nailed me now is because I'm so emotionally attached to Firefly/Serenity, and the love and appreciation for it all just keeps growing everyday.

To see those sets, all dark and vacant, I couldn't help but think that that's how they look now going unused...the fact that this show should still be going and isn't hurts...then you see Mal wrap the blanket around himself and sit at the helm...kind of symbolic of all of us. He wraps himself in what he has, kind of a security blanket of sorts, determined to not leave the ship...whereas we watch, re-watch, read, talk about, do what we can; our way of wrapping ourselves in what we have of this show, determined to not leave the Serenity behind either.

Hmmm... this is very difficult.

From the movie:

River's "My Turn" at the end

Mal's moment of breakdown as they're heading into reaver space

Zoe's "He's not comin'" makes me cry every time

Show:

Simon: "Light it"

River: "You found me broken"

Mal: "Ya'll gonna be here when I wake up?"

Inara/Mal scene during heart of gold yanno the one? "I wish I hadn't met her, then I wouldn't have failed her", you know what I'm talking about.

Jayne watching from outside the infirmary as Kaylee's getting patched up, I dunno, that made me a Jayne/Kaylee shipper XD

Any and all of the dinner scenes

"Everybody dies alone." in OoG. A bit of an overly dramatic phrase, but damn if it's not done well.

Inara crying in HoG.

"Everybody's so mad..." Kaylee in the Pilot.

"Make something up. Don't tell them what I did." - regret from Jayne is special. In a special way.

Hearing the end of "the old saying".

"I'll be your bounty Jubel Early." - OiS

I got a bit misty and choked up when Mal kicked Crow through the running engine - I went "aaawwwww.... *gasp* *choke* *wheeze* Hell Yeah!!"

In Serenity movie, when they're headed towards Reaver space and Mal walks to Inara's shuttle. It is the closest we ever get to seeing Mal cry. His decisions and actions have gotten people he cares about killed, and may get more of his crew killed and he has to face that. It does go back to River, though. Mal didn't have to take the Tam sibblings back on board, but he does. I think it demonstrates Mal's conscience, though I think that sometimes he wishes he didn't have one becauses it causes him so much pain. If you don't care about someone, you can't lose them, and Mal's lost plenty. It breaks my heart and Nathan does such a wonderful job portraying that pain and vulnerability.

Yeah.

The Message Episode is quite sad and always makes me cry.

Also in OiS WHen River is saying how she isn't wanted and offers to do with Juble.

BUt also there is one poingant moment that I can remember clearly from the movie Serenity. It's when River says to Simon "You took care of me, now it's my turn". How Sweet is that?

Ok... I give: Mal's relationship with River in Serenity. In the opening when he's on the mule and she comes down the stairs and he says, "Hey little one." If you'd seen the series and all the trouble she'd been to "me and my boat," that was very telling as far as what he really thought of her.
And then at the end of the movie, their exchange of, "...but you probably already know what I'm going to say." "Yeah, but I like to hear you say it."
That is vintage JW writing; unexpected, simple and powerful.

Ahh You fine Firefly folk have touched on many a magical moment.....so many, so gorram many.
One of my favorites is within the movie...and its right after Simon gets shot....Here he is wounded, and he as a Doctor should have a good idea of the trouble he is in,but what are his first thoughts on...Kaylee....I just love that, hes shot and all he can think about is what needs to be done to make Kaylee better.Than of course to add to that he turns to River and apologizes for leaving.
"Everyone dies alone" damn I would love to have an Mp3 of that moment. Yeah its overly dramatic, but you know Mal means it with conviction. Hes seen his future.And it doesnt help matters much that hes standing right there in front of his secret love Inara(the woman hes too gorram chicken to tell his feelings too,not counting his "good choice"smile at the end of the BDM,or that "you spin me about" moment)
Oooh another...that out of focus into close up as Zoe says "You wanna leave this room " to Jayne after he makes the comment about the dead soldiers.Can only imagine what Mal did for Zoe,how he helped her go on at the end of the war,after she saw so many die.Zoe, in her dress, at the funeral,just seeing her in it chokes me up. Ive let my mind wander and created a whole backstory for that dress and what it meant to Wash.*sniff sniff*.
Inara " Why would I ever want to leave Serenity?" and Mals choked up response."Cant think of a reason" (close your eyes and listen to it sometime)
In War Stories, that moment when Wash tells Zoe how Mal kept him alive-"Hes crazy..." . ooh and Mal later when he says " You want to meet the real me now?" Jaynes quiet moment at the end of his big episode ...Why wasnt the quiet acoustic version of his song on the soundtrack... I mean c'mon??seriously folks, GRRRRrrrrr "Ill just fade away" Dont you just want to hug her till she squeaks?
