Decisions...decisions...I think I would have to go with Out of Gas as #1 with Objects in Space a close second. Even though the whole series rocked, these two are exceptional even among Firefly episodes. Both are chock-full of emotional moments...it's like a rollercoaster you just can't get enough of. OoG introduces us to the core crew and explains Mal's love affair with Serenity. That last scene where the salesman is jabberin' away and Mal is eyeing the ship like his future wife is awesome. Plus the Tarantinoesque way the flashbacks occur is perfect.
OiS introduces us to, hands down, the coolest villain the crew has faced yet. Plus, the performances of the actors is absolutely top-notch. You are laughing one minute and nearly in tears the next. Also, as has been mentioned previously...we get the impression that River is now a formal part of the crew due to her large part in thwarting Early. From start to finish, you are just wrapped.

Both great, but for me personally, OoG wins out by a nose.
