Mal: My thanks Wash, nice save as always.

Wash: A pleasure.

Mal: And how are our passengers?

Kaylee: They’re fine. So, what happened? Was there a terrible brawl?

Zoe: Oddly enough, there was.

Wash: Are you gettin’ my wife into trouble?

Mal: Wha? I didn’t start it! Just wanted a quiet drink.

Zoe: Funny, sir, how you always seem to find yourself in an Alliance-friendly bar come U-day, looking for a “quiet drink.”

Mal: See, this is another sign of your tragic space dementia, all paranoid and crotchety. Breaks the heart.
