It does, doesn't it? But unless the episode is messed up it's wrong. Sorry FireSpy, i should have trusted you.

The HoG I have shows clips from Trash and The Message in the beginning of it, so I'm left with a few options: I'm wrong and Sci Fi UK only screwed up the order of a single episode; or I'm right, Sci Fi UK is right, and when Fox changed the airing order they changed the previously thingy.

I haven’t seen all of it yet, so there’s no way I can know which it is, but I figured I should be the first to say I was wrong. Even after seeing it, I can't tell because if they re shot for the Pilot they might have re done a line or two here or there, but I’m assuming I'm wrong till I figure out what’s up with Sci Fi UK, maybe they just messed up their online schedule.

I agree with Firespy. At the beginning of heart of Gold it makes references to Objects in space, trash, and the message. It has to come after them. This also explains why no mention was made of inara leaving.

Also, if you watch HoG, Inara saying she is leaving is a *very* dramatic moment. You don't get the full effect just from reading the script. There's no way that they would not follow up this storyline with nothing more than the 'psychic eavesdropping' that River does in Objects.

This one was really good.

Maybe they changed it because her going was so final (remember: when it was planed to go before those she still said she was leaving.) Now I just need to figure out the Sci Fi UK thing.

Yes, and I never understood why they planned HoG to go before with no resolution or serious follow-up to Inara's statement about leaving. This does make for a great (awful?) cliff-hanger of an ending, though. Well, season ending, not series ending! (still got my fingers crossed! that reminds me, time for my daily dose of sending Spike TV suggestions to air Firefly)

Awful, powereful and well done, but awful. I guess that they probably planed to have followups, but when they changed their minds they didn't have to add any.
