Many of you have said that turning on 'Firefly' or 'Serenity' feels like coming home...

So I'm curious, which scene makes you feel the most like you've come home? I absolutely feel the same way...when I have a bad day at work, I play a Firefly episode in my head while people are talking at me, and then just pretend I'm listening.

There are many scenes that are obviously meant to make you feel that way, playing ball in "Bushwhacked", and the dinner at the end of "Safe." I think, however, that I really respond to the part in "Bushwhacked" when everyone is getting moved to the Alliance ship, when Kaylee says "But Captain, did you hear what that purple-belly called Serenity?" And he just responds with "Shut up!" It sounds more like how a brother would say it, and it always gets a little smile.

Thoughts?

Mal: You know, you ain't quite right.
River: It's the popular theory.

Maybe when Mal hugs RIver at the end in Objects In Space or at the end of Safe.

Excuse me Darkfly, Mal never hugged River. Mal hugged Kaylee in Ariel, it was spontaneous, somthing Nathan did himself. He caught River in OIS when she flew down from Early's ship. Simon hugged River in Safe when he told the villagers to light the pyre. Just needed to clear that up.

The scene where Mal is walking down the stairs and he touches Kaylee;s hand.

Jayne sitting outside the infirmary when they are working on Kaylee.

The looks that pass between Mal and Zoe, Wash and Zoe, River and Simon.

Book loading a weapon to help save Mal and Wash.

Pretty much all of it!

Sorry my mistake but catching somebody & hugging look pretty similar in space.

In general it all feels like home. Can't go hardly a week without watching an episode or the BDM.

When Mal hugs Kaylee in "Ariel." Oh, and when Mal makes a joke like this: "See, this is a sign of your tragic space dementia. All paranoid and crotchety. Breaks the heart." Or, anytime Mal and Inara fight.

And, hearing "The Ballad of Serenity" gives me warm fuzzies, too.

I'm gonna weigh in on this one and say "out of gas".
At the end when he asks "ya'll gonna be here when I wake up" then flashes to when he found Serenity.

You know pretty much how Mal feels about his crew and espescially his ship.

That was exactly what I was thinking.

There was also the "Shindig" episode. It says a lot about how Mal views his crew. He calls Inara a whore constantly, yet he would die for her, and for anybody else on the crew.
