Well, looking back on WS, I was wondering if whether Mal and Zoe ever "got it on"like Mal said. Maybe they were lying just to fool Wash. Maybe they did do it because they thought every night would be their last during the war so they did it like bunnies. Or could be they were drunk one night and...well what are your thoughts?

I don't think so. I don't *know*, of course, I wasn't there , but they just don't seem to me like two people who have been lovers--even casually at some point in the distant past. Just my totally subjective impression.

Yeah, I'm saying no too. There is a strong relationship/friendship between them though. Like they saved each other's lives.

I tend to think they didn't.

Zoe strikes me as the type that BEFORE she and Wash married, she'd have been bluntly honest and made sure Wash understood what kind of 'past' she came with. So Wash wouldn't have been so confident. . .simply because he knew his wife would've said so, if'n it were so.

If she had slept with him, would she have been the type of person to joke about it as she does at the end of WS? I sure don't think so. "Take me captain, take me hard" just isn't anywhere near as funny if she and Mal had actually done it before. What makes it funny is how completely un-sexual her relationship is with Mal. And as was said above, Zoe's a straight-up gal and would have told Wash.

Hey, hey, hey, don't be mean. We don't have to be mean, because, remember, no matter where you go, there you are.

My 2 cents...
NO
Why, because they wouldn't have been so uncomfortable acting like they were going to if they already had.
I see the relationship as a brother/sister one almost. They were in a war together but Mal was her superior officer. I don't think Zoe would have respected him if he'd taken advantage of his position in such a way.

absolutely not, they are strictly war buddies
and comrades in arms...
it would be crazy to cheapen that with some smarmy past affair...

I agree with the consensus. No.

But what about Mal and Inara?
