Mal's blank stare - I didn't just hear that did I? - is my all time favorite moment in the entire series. The moment that made me a browncoat for-evah.



Yup, and then a little later, when he exclaims "I didn't marry you!" and Book says he did, he leans into Jayne and whispers, "how drunk was I last night?" ROTFLMAO! Of course he don't trust the guy, but they can still be 'drinking buddies'! ;)

If I absolutely had to choose just one, I would have to pick the "special hell" speech, it cracks me up every time I watch it, especially when Book leans back around the corner and repeats "the SPECIAL hell"

I always liked:

JAYNE: Captain, can you stop her from bein' cheerful, please?

MAL: I don't believe there is a power in the 'verse that can stop Kaylee from being cheerful.

He smiles at her, never stopping working.

MAL: Sometimes you just wanna duct tape her mouth and dump her in the hold for a month.

She grins and kisses his cheek.

KAYLEE: I love my captain.


That and...

ZOE: Now we have a boatful of citizens right on top of our... stolen cargo. That's a fun mix.

MAL: Ain't no way in the 'verse they could find that compartment, even-- (stops talking as Dobson walks past) Even if they were lookin' for it.

ZOE: Why not?

Mal is thrown by the question.

MAL: 'Cause...?

ZOE: Oh yeah, this is gonna go great.


...which leads to the shoot politely bit, of course, which is also very good

But then, there are so many good quotes it's hard to choose less than a dozen favourites!

Mal: "We're not gonna die. We can't die, Bendis. You know why? Because we are so... very... pretty. We are just too pretty for God to let us die."

Nope, it's actually "to cleave".

From the script:

Saffron: "But you know I'm to cleave to you."

Bequeathed wouldn't make a whole lot o' sense, bein' as she wasn't mentioned in a will...

~A~
El Jefe Magnifico's Mistress... of Communications and Harems...

You can't take the sky from me.

My all timer is

"No power in the 'verse can stop me."

It's so all purpose that I've used it a number of times with out anyone figuring out where it's from, but knowing it got to be a quote from somewhere.

When faced with a moral question I ask myself; "What would The Lone Ranger do?"

Mal to Inara: I just knew you let her kiss you!

Best final moment of the series. I almost died. that was the moment I became a firefly-head.

Check out the shooting script (or a writer's draft), not the transcript. "To cleave"...great nuance to that.
