In the episode commentaries there is a lot of references to hints about Inara. What makes the most sense to me is some sort of eternal youth.

"I don't want to die at all"
"you look exactly the same as the
day I left"

Then when you figure that she runs away from Sihnon, then right as she gets really close to Mal she runs off, it seems that she runs whenever she gets tied down to a place. Maybe she knows that she'll outlive everyone so she tries not to get attached.

I don't think the syringe had anything to do with that though.

Well, it is mentioned that one of the thieves is a prefect's nephew, so perhaps the band of thieves has been terrorizing the settlement for a while and the settlers couldn't do anything about it because of the fact that one of the thieves was "connected". Hence, they get Mal&Co. to do the dirty work, and dump YoSaffBridge with them (and I assume she would've given Elder Gommen a cut in crime she was planning, or at least that's what she would've said to him).
