All of War Stories ...just brilliant writing!
May be the best is at the end when Zoe says "The Captain's gotta do this." as Mal fights with Niska's henchman.
"Oh no, I don't" Mal says and ducks as Zoe, Jayne and Wash together unload lead into the henchman.
According to the commentary it was Joss's "Tarantino moment."

In OMR
Saffron, as Mal falls out of shot:
G'nite, sweetie.
Inara, as she falls:
You stupid sonofabitch.
Line for line, OMR has to be one of the all-time
gem TV scripts.
As for Adam and missing things he does, just watch
all the way through and pay attention only to him --
you'll see him working. That's how Jayne turned
from 2-D dumb-muscle cast-filler into 3-D character.

I loved the part
"It's a whore house" -"I'm in!"

I'll be ok......
That would be homage to Men In Black final scene.

Getting back to the thread topic, how about the conversation Jewel had, I think it was in the Train Job when she's asked by Simon (I believe) about what was about to happen and if it was something they'd done before etc. She had a few good moments of screen time there and I recall her being particularly confident and memorable...
Oh! Crime!

Both Jewel and Morena do some fantastic work…
Morena in Jaynestown
“……..Jayne your talking about Jayne Cobb?!!”
Fess,” Yes Jayne Cobb, the hero of Canton. The only man that ever stood of to my father. I kinda hate the idea of him getting caught.”
Inara. “ …Yes, that would be bad!”
Morena does such a great job. Her eyes moving all around, you can see she’s a little miffed because she got it all wrong thinking he was speaking of Mal.
Objects in Space is a Jewel for Jewel. When she looks up and is faced with Jubal Early, that whole scene is gold. I fear her fear. Don’t think that scene coulda been played better by anyone. She nailed it.

Morena is awesome as well, between her and Adam in Sands of Oblivion, their screen time and talents saved it being a 'complete' bottom feeder film.
And you nailed it about 'Jewels' scene in OiS, couldn't have said it better myself, she really did make us feel her fear.
Mal's expression in the scrapyard when he first see's Serenity says it all.

The shocked, "Did I leave the stove on?"
The thoughtful, "I think I turned the stove off."
And the decisive but ultimately sexy, "Yes. I turned the stove off."
It's on YouTube somewhere. I gotta go find it again.
I think he learned a fourth, though, when Saffron says, "but Mr. Reynolds, sir, I'm your wife."
That *LOOK* he gave her is what hooked me on Firefly for all time... and put Nathan at the top of my "Man-Toy" list.
Also must watch OMR for that "Woman, me touch" look from Jayne.
I can't list all the quotes I adore and wait for. This post is long enough already.
Here it is, and I love Nathan's cat story!

All of the posts are great. So many to chose from it's good to share it with everyone. Here is my all-time favorite that has me on the floor LMAO.
It's delivered by Book in OMR. Come on, say it with me - "The Special Hell." Its not only the delivery, but the quick look around the corner that Book gives to Mal and just as quick he disappears down the hall.
Also in OMR: Wash, Mal, Zoe and Saffron in the mess hall. Saffron says she didn't cook for everyone ans suggests to Zoe that she could cook for her man. The look Zoe gives Wash as he nervously laughs and says:
"Isn't she quaint!" Classic comic timing.
Just one more: In OIS when River is telling Mal what to do, he scrunches his face and she tells him "Don't make a face." The look on his face is priceless, as if to say she can see me.
P.S. I too loved the "Welcome Aboard" from Mal to River at the end of OIS.
Shiny! Let's be bad guys!

As Ellen said, if Nathan hadn't been sexy enough already, that cat story pretty much clinched it. Yeah... I think THAT is how he got to the top of my "Mantoy" list and stayed there.
