Okay, What's your take? at the end of the episode was Kaylee afraid of River or was she ashamed of her actions during the fight

Ashamed. Very very ashamed. And River's the only one who knows the truth.

Yeah, I'm going with ashamed. Kaylee had this opertunity to prove herself, and she and the all-important ship was saved by the invalid.

The most interesting part of the ep IMHO. I think she was just really creeped out. Her little buddy River is a killing machine. I wonder if she'll tell anyone else? I see River's role changing dramatically if she ever gets her head straight.... but if that happens mayber her 'powers' will go away. Man, what did they do to her? powerful stuff..

I'll have to go with actually "scared". River was very freaky. They both ran around and played like little girls. But Kaylee set out to use her gun. River, displayed skills that Jayne would be hard-put to equal and then repeated the "No one in this 'verse can stop me" quote. I'd say Kaylee's gonna keep a bit more distance from River from now on.

In order to tell someone, Kaylee will have to admit what happened. She'll have to get over being ashamed of freaking out.

What I think is that Kaylee's afraid of River telling the others that she (Kaylee) folded under pressure!

To clarify, I don't think that Kaylee was afraid of River shooting a gun. They were ALL shooting guns, even Simon and Book!

I dunno, I don't see Kaylee basing her ego much on firefights. If she'd messed up something in her ship she might be ashamed, but no one on the crew would really expect her to kick ass or anything.

On a slightly different topic, what if book is/was an agent for a rival gov't entity that knows about the blue hands, and is keeping an eye on River?... its a possibility.
