Yes, what Citizen said seems exactly right to me.
Now let me see if I can fix the subject line.

*edit* There! Should do it. (I've figured out that a later post being edited is what really effects the subject line.)

Why the captain is trusting that < remorseless harridan > [BOO hway-HUN duh PUO-foo] is beyond -- [For River's next comment to make sence, she would have to think that Simon was saying here "Saffron is(not) affraid", why else would she say "Saffron is not affraid" in response? It would also require Simon to see River's first comment as "Saffron is affraid" which doesn't seem to be a logical interpretation of her commment and given his "We'll be OK" sentiment]

RIVER: Not her. Jayne. [Saffron's not afraid. Jayne is]




I apparently wasn't with the sense making, either. What I should've put, and what I think others have said is:

RIVER: Not her. Jayne. [I'm not talking about Saffron, I'm talking about Jayne. He's the one who is afraid.]

That's what I was trying to say.
