I gotta be honest with you, this is way too much the 'evil twin' deal. While I think Joss and our favorite actors/actresses are good enough to even make cliches look good (the way some actors can make even lousy lines sound good), I doubt that 'Wash' would come back in this fashion... Regardless, this has generated some good ideas, and that much I like {^^}.

...have you been reading the Serenity RPG book?

They describe a scene like this:

"...Zoe, you see that husband of yours?"
"Yes, sir," said Zoe, pointing. "He's over there by the bar."
"No, he's not," said Inara. "He's by the cage watching the dancer."
"You've both gone gorram blind," said Mal impatiently. "He's sitting at that table--"
"I think I should know my own husband, sir," Zoe began. She stopped, blinked.
"Wo bu shin wo dah yan jing!" Inara exclaimed. She stared into the room. "Don't make ourselves conspicuous, you said..."
"I'm gonna have to kill him," said Mal. He put out his hand to collar the Wash that was sitting at the table. His hand passed right through Wash's shirt, came back with nothing. "Soon as I figure out which one he is."
For there were Washes everywhere. Wash was leaning against the bar. Wash was dancing. Wash was telling a bawdy joke. Wash was strolling across the floor. Wash was perusing the menu.
Then Wash--the real Wash--was right in front of them, grinning like a pink Cheshire pussycat. "Isn't it great, honey?" he asked Zoe. He waved his hand at himself. "You always said you wanted more of me to love! Well, now you have twenty! They're holograms! Half the people in this place are holograms! You see, they have this machine and you go behind the curtain and for only one credit--"
"I have dibs on the killing him, sir," said Zoe.

I recommend the book, highly, if you haven't gotten it yet. Even if you don't mean to actually play the game. KF

Lord, I'm walking your way. Let me in, for my feet are sore, my clothes are ragged.
Look in my eyes, Lord, and my sins will play out on them as on a screen. Read them all.
Forgive what you can and send me on my path. I will walk on until you bid me rest.

I like your idea of bringing back Alan Tudyk somehow and I like the idea of him being diametrically opposite to Wash but another twin brother ...ugh! They crammed so much of that down our throats on Star Trek.
With what they can do with movie makeup, maybe Alan could play another member of Wash's family...like his Dad or ...his sister.
What do you think?

I've never played a table-top RPG, although I've always wanted to. I just read the books. I love rules and skills and story material. Thanks for the recommendation.
