I like the scene in "Jaynestown" where Jayne has to remove the gun taped to his waist. RIP! The look on Jaynes face is classic.

When Kaylee hands the message to Tracy's family then walks to Simon, without making eye contact she softly takes his hand...I love the way she seeks his comfort without even looking at him and he gives it without looking back.
Jayne removing his hat as the message is being played...a silent tribute to a fallen soldier.
Jayne crouched at the window of medical watching folks working to save Kaylee's life.
The look on Mal's face as he's about to give in to Saffron before he says "oh I'm going to a special hell".
The look between Inara & Mal as they kneel over Nandi's lifeless body before he takes off after the bad guy.
All the ones already listed and about a million more.

Kaylee's smile after she says "That's my good girl." (Has to be the prettiest smile I've ever seen.)
River dancing (a jig?) in Safe.

In Serenity, Wash giving Zoe the thumbs-up after she calls Mal 'Sir'.
In Ariel, the proud look on River's face as Simon saves the hospital patient.
And, although it's not strictly nonverbal, probably the look on Book's face as he sticks his head around the corner to again remind Mal "The SPECIAL hell."

I can't beleive no one's mentioned that moment in OIS (least i think it was then ) when Mal brushes his thumb over the cut on Inara's lip.
I mean c'mon... that moment had everything *but* words.

I think that Our Mr.s Reynolds is the king of non-verbal episodes, there are just so many...
Like when Mal gets married to Saffron when he's drunk, and mouths to Jayne "Look at the hat" and he does this funny little squint.
Once he finds out that he's married to Saffron.
When she offers to rub his feet, and he just walks away.
When Mal says "Me and her have inly one thing in common, we're the only one's who don't find this funny" then he walks off and we see Inara's look.
And when Saffron trys to do in Wash, she takes him away from the console and they stand by eachother to watch the stars, and Wash looks funny.
Oh...I must stop somewhere.But there are so many more!

There's a nice one in Serenity, when Simon operating on Kaylee. Mal looks at Inara, and then looks away a second before she glances at him. Or maybe it was the other way around. It just sums up so much of their relationship.
I just love that.

When Simon and Kaylee hold hands in The Message. And the music helps.
The assorted looks on people's faces (Especially Simon's) when Jayne's song starts up...so funny

The Train Job:
During the big fight, guy hits Zoe in the face and she grabs a big handful of dirt and flings it into his eyes.
Safe:
Guy gets the pistol shot out of his hands, then the camera pulls back to reveal that it was Zoe who took the shot, from like 9 miles away.

If you blink you miss it, but....:
The look of pure evil on Book's face in his OiS "inner moment" right before you shift back into reality.
Those who restrain desire, do so because thiers is weak enough to be restrained.
