How about Jayne would say "I won't be in my/your bunk" or "I like being in my bunk" or "My bunk is my castle" or something like that, just a short silly sentence which immediately reminds us on his famous one in War Stories.
Or something like his "don't kiss on the mouth"-thing. Like "I hate mouthes." or something which doesn't make sense except for Jayne...
Don't know... Sorry.

Time for some thrilling heroics.

I for one would like to see some geese being juggled.

Jayne: "Know what the chain of command is? It's the chain I beat you with till you understand who's in command."

There's a thread on the official Serenity site about scripted inside jokes that fans would like to see (consensus being someone should sing or hum "Hero of Canton" or there should be plastic dinosaurs. There are many other ideas, but those are the ones everyone agrees on).
As for "unscripted" inside jokes, love the "Yosaf Bridge" one. Also a fly-by by a ship from...well, pretty much any sci-fi series or movies.
Hmm...how about a deactivated lightsabre for sale or sitting on a table or something. A recruiting poster for the Empire on an alley wall? A piece of Mandalorian armor somewhere?

I would like to see Serenity persued by bandits of some sort. Wash would then say, "We be set upon by pirates, Captain. ARRRG!"

We got you partially surrounded.

Wash should be seen reading classic science fiction. Put an alien on the cover, even.

Zoe: "We live in a spaceship, dear."

Funny how someone mentioned 'The A-Team'. I have always thought that 'The A-Team' influenced Joss & Co. in writing Ariel, Heart of Gold, Trash and War Stories. I love 'The A-Team' and I was jumping for joy when watching those three episodes.

A-Team similiarities:

Ariel - Wash and Kaylee picking parts and building the Medvac ship while the Simon, Zoe, Mal and Jayne work on bluffing and disguises

Heart of Gold - Going in to help out the helpless for little in return (or bartar for services in return)

Trash - The planning and executing the jon

War Stories - The planning of getting back Mal (weapons check, teamwork, etc). One of my most fav scenes is when Wash gets up from being helped back to the shuttle and saying "The bastard is not going to get days!". He then proceeds to pilot the shuttle back to Serenity. For all the funny man that Wash is made out to be, he can mean business when his back is against the wall.

I can't believe no one asked for a Giesha for sale in a window... ? To obvious?

If you can't run, you crawl, and if you can't crawl, well, if you can't do that, you find someone to carry you.

A 'dead bessy' reference would not go amiss.

I like the idea of juggling geese (gosslings). Reminds me of Steve Martin in The Jerk and the cat juggling home movie. Hi-larious.

Clearly, the *kiss* theme has already been done once in OMR, but it would still be funny to bring that up again.

Someone, perhaps a newly graduated med student, singing on a statue...naked

Instead of 'air' through the engine, Mal could make a comment like ' Crow' though the engine.....

" They don't like it when you shoot at 'em. I worked that out myself. "

Ooh. Ooh. Ooh. How about just using the phrase, "as the Crow flies" ?

I shaved off my beard for you, devil woman!

I love the Yosaf Bridge thing. seeing the Han in carbonite in Kaylee's engine room again (as in 'The Message'). Disembarking from Serenity and walking past a crowd watching someone juggle geese, also a great idea. I see Zoe giving Wash a look that says "I didn't beleive you." and him responding "I told you so." shruging and walking away. Also would love to see a few cases in a store front of the Wobbly headed Gaiesha dolls with a "on Sale, Cheap" sign. Jayne's hat!
I'm sure Joss will have a few inside chuckles.
