LOL.

That was just so funny to me.

I think I'd have them explore the whole blue hands/blue sun connection a bit more. And maybe give some of the characters more time on screen.

I would have loved an ep. where they're just in the ship or hanging on a planet, no cargo or anything, boring, maybe, but great for character development.

Something's going down tonight! Something with the man!

Two by two. Hand of blue.

I wish they had an ep about Badger betraying Saffron and forcing her to fight Inara to the death and Inara must do it or the Serenity crew will die. Not like Shindig. Guest appearance by Jubil Early, great scenes between him and the crew of Serenity held hostage in an abby. And then Saffron tricks Badger and River shoots the gun out of Early's hand and Book kicks surprising ass and they fly away just before Alliance patrols can ID them.

I just watch it nekkid!!!

No, not really, I just had to jump into that thread somehow.

One thing I would change is I would like a greater understanding of what the Alliance did that was so bad. Right now the bad stuff they do is chase Serenity. "It's getting awfully crowded in my sky", But we really don't get the idea of how the War started. I guess the unaired pilot explains it some, though I felt the intro was way to "Lucas" I like the intro with Mal best. That's what I would change, I'd wanna know more about the Alliance. May be the first leaders of the Browncoats were style conscious officers who refused to wear Geeky grey uniforms & big hats....................I'm kidding

Mal: “See how I'm not punching him? I think I've grown!”

You may be on to something.

Hey, thanks. It reminds of the classic fight between Kirk and Spock, also recreated by Jim Carry in the Cable Guy.

One problem with my idea is that Jubil Early would just tell the Alliance their identities. And then I realized that Jubil found them in OiS and so the Alliance must already have their identies. Hmmm.

Maybe Early gives up on River because he's scared of her and then Saffron convinces him to marry her and they team up as partners in crime.

I kinda wonder if the blue hands ARE gloves.
I suppose so.
The one thing I definetly would change is the scene in Serenity when Mal tells Simon that Kaylee is dead and then there's the shot of the rest of the crew laughing so hard. I mean first of all it wasn't THAT funny and secondly I just don't think Zoe or epeacially Wash would be so mean.

She understands, she doesn't comprehend

You know, you bring up an interesting point. Is the Alliance looking for just River or the whole crew. I imagine that the Alliance is just looking for River and her brother. Especially after Bushwacked where the Alliance thorughly searched the ship for the two futgitive and didn't find them. The blue hands people are looking for everybody whose had contact with River (for some reason anyone whose even spoken with her must be eradicated). An interesting thing aboputg Early was that he was only after River, he didn't care about Simon. Maybe that was because his vessel was too small for more than two or maybe he has some wierd sense of honor, like a darker version of Mal. Any way I think you have a good idea for atleast a fanfic.

The Alliance doesn't know that it's Serenity they're after. Jubal Early must have tracked River and Simon to Serenity on his own, and for all we know he died at the end of Objects in Space. Even if he survived, he wouldn't tell the Alliance that River and Simon were there, because he'd want the reward for himself.

The Blue Man Group doesn't know River's on Serenity, since the only time they've come close was in Ariel, and they never even saw anyone from Serenity. One assumes that they wouldn't even find Jayne's name attached to the tip that River was in the area, since the Alliance officer who double crossed him obviously wanted the reward for himself, so he wouldn't have reported Jayne's involvement.

Didn't Early say something to Simon like, "The plan isn't to kill you...The warrant only calls for River" I can't remember, need to watch OiS again.

It might be possible that Early is not loyal to the Alliance, he's just out for money like Mal and Saffron. I actually can see Saffron and Early getting hitched, it would be funny.

I read other posts speculating about Early (and Book for that matter)of going through the same kind of testing that River did. The Alliance, making a human weapon. I like that idea too.
