A true stand alone episode. Virutally nothing about River or Simon comes into play here. It's all Mal, Inara and Saffron.

Dragged the dvd out this weekend just to watch one ep. Funny, smart and not involving much backstory. Probably the best single ep I could reccomend to a newbie or just when you wanna smile. q

OMR is my favorite episode. Almost everyone has highlight comic moments in it. From the beginning and Mal's 'I swear by my pretty floral bonnet', to Book's 'Special Hell', to Jayne trying to trade 'Vera' for Saffron, to Wash/Zoe's interaction about the whole thing, I pretty much laugh throughout the whole episode.

You're right! And Kaylee's " ...he makes everyone cry! He's like a monster !" Too gorram funny.

But the best is left for last, with Mal's " I know you let her kiss you " line, which simply leaves Inara dumbstruck. Awesome moment!

I've never been able to decide which I like better...Good Bible or Good Myth. I can also relate a little to Mal's "plough" situation!

The thing that confuses about this episode and the Episode 'Trash' is the connection between Simon/River and Saffron. In 'Trash', Mal ordered Simon/River to stay in their bunk in case Saffron might see them and report both of them to the nearest Alliance Cruiser, but when you go back to OMR, Simon actually does meet Saffron when Zoe calls the whole crew to the Cargo Bay area to meet her.And River meets Saffron in the deleted scene.

I think Simon/River didn't come into much contact with her the first time and they were "just passengers" then. However, if she saw them again and remembered they were there before she might get suspicious and pay some attention to them. Then if she did see a warrant it might click with her.

The part I really don't get is why she didn't turn the crew in when they left her to rot at the end of trash. Duran was still alive and could easily identify her as being part of the crime. If we have any sort of similar legal system then she would have to give up mal and the crew or she would face harsher punishment.

Anyway OMR is an awesome episode. The funniest of the series IMO. Even beats out Jaynestown. If I can't hook someone after having them watch Out of Gas and Our Mrs. Reynolds then I know they're never going to like Firefly.
