Kaylee: The only place I seen somethin’ so nice is some of the things Inara has.

Mal: Well, we best be movin’.

Zoe: I guess she needs all that stuff, the life she leads.

Kaylee: Well, sure. Sometimes the customers buy her things. Some real rich men.

Mal: Come on! These ain’t feathers I’m toting here, ya know?

Kaylee: I like the ruffles. Inara gets to wear whatever she wants.

Mal: What are you going to do in that rig? Flounce around the engine room? Be like a sheep walking on its hind legs.

(Kaylee walks off, hurt. Zoe gives Mal a death stare and takes his bag from him.)

Zoe: See you on the ship, Captain.

(Zoe, Wash and Kaylee board the mule and leave.)

Jayne: Is she mad or something?

Kaylee: Oh, look at the pretties!

Wash: What am I looking at, the girls or the clothes?

Jayne: There’s girls?

Zoe: The clothes, please.

Kaylee: Say, look at the fluffy one.

Zoe: Too much foofaraw. If I’m going to wear a dress, I’d want something with some slink.

Wash: You want a slinky dress? I can buy you a slinky dress. Captain, can I have money for a slinky dress?

Jayne: I’ll chip in.

Zoe: I can hurt you.

Inara: Good afternoon, Captain.

Mal: Morning. We’re downing, and in case that Wash don’t kill us all, local time’s going to be in the a.m., 10 or so.

Inara: Yes, I saw that.

Mal: Making plans? “Atherton Wing”. He’s a regular, ain’t he?

Inara: I’ve seen him before.

Mal: Oh, I never did. Not what I pictured – young. Must be rich too, to afford your rates.

Inara: I suppose. He has engaged me for several days.

Mal: Days!? Boy must have stamina.

Inara: (smiling) He does.

Mal: Well…fine. Is he letting you out at all?

Inara: Actually, we’re attending a ball tomorrow night.

Mal: Tell me, do all the men there pay for their dates, or just the young rich ones with stamina?

Inara: Most of the women in there will not be Companions, if that’s what you’re asking. Perhaps the other men couldn’t attract one.

Mal: Hmm. It’s sounds like the finest party I can imagine getting paid to go to.

Inara: I don’t suppose you’d find it up to standards of your outings. More conversation and somewhat less petty theft and getting hit with pool cues. (dismissing him) I understand if you need to go prepare for that “It’s 10 in the morning” issue.

Mal: Yeah. Better go do that. ‘Cause I think this is more of an evening look.

Wash: Seem to you we cleared out of Santo in a hurry?

Zoe: Seems we do that a lot. Heard tell though, we’re going to stay a while on Persephone.

Wash: Shiny.

Zoe: Yeah? Thought you’d get land crazy that long in port.

Wash: Probably, but I’ve been sane a long while now, and change is good.

Mal: (entering the bridge) Well, ain’t that a joyful sight?

Wash: Gotta love a sunset.

Zoe: Starting to get familiar too, like a second home.

Mal: Persephone ain’t home. Too many people we got to avoid. Re-supply, look for work, move along. Sniff the air, we don’t kiss the dirt.

Zoe: Wasn’t planning on the dirt-kissing, sir.

Wash: Besides, I wouldn’t stand for it anyway, Captain, jealous man like me. (alarm sounds) Closing in.

Zoe: Planet’s coming up a mite fast.

Wash: That’s just cause, I’m going down too quick. Likely crash and kill us all.

Mal: Well, that happens, let me know.

Mal: There’s a chance you might want to head back to the ship.

Inara: Oh, I’m all right. This is entertaining, actually.

Mal: Yeah? What’s entertaining?

Inara: I like watching the game. As with other situations, the key seems to be giving Jayne a heavy stick and standing back.

Mal: Still, might ought to clear out before too much longer. Seems there’s a thief about.

Inara: A thief?

Mal: Took this right off him. (hands Inara stolen money) Now they earned that with the sweat of their slave-trading brows.

Inara: Mal…

Mal: Aw, terrible shame. Course they won’t discover it till they go order their next round of drinks.

Wright: (in Chinese, grabbing Mal’s shoulder) Way! [“Hey!”]

Mal: Good drinker, that one.

(a fight breaks out)

Inara: (to the bartender) Lovely place, I’ll tell my friends.

Book: Shouldn’t we report this?

Mal: To who? Alliance? Right. They’re going to run out here lickety-split and make sure these taxpayers are okay.

Book: Then we’ll have to.

Jayne: If there’s folks on board in need of help, why ain’t they beaming no distress call?

Zoe: It’s true, there’s no beacon.

Mal: Which means it’s likely no one’s looking to find her.

Book: All the more reason for us to do the right thing.

Jayne: How about you just say a prayer when we slide on by.

Book: Shall I remind you of the story of the Good Samaritan?

Mal: I’d rather you didn’t. But we’ll check it out. See if there are survivors. If not, then, well no one’s going to mind if we take a look around, see if there’s not something of value they might have left behind.

Jayne: (Suddenly “concerned”) Yeah, no, uh, someone could be hurt.

Mal: Now this is all the money Niska gave us in advance. You bring it back to him, tell him the job didn’t work out. We’re not thieves–but we are thieves. Point is we’re not takin’ what’s his. Now we’ll stay out of his way the best we can from here on in. You explain that that’s best for everyone, okay?

Crow: Keep the money. Use it to buy a funeral. It doesn’t matter where you go, or how far you fly. I will hunt you down, and the last thing you see will be my blade.

Mal: Darn.

(Mal kicks Crow into the engine intakes and lines up the next Henchman.)

Mal: Now this is all the money Niska gave us in advance.

Henchman: Oh, I get it. I’m good. Best thing for everyone. I’m right there with you.

(Jayne shoots Crow in the kneecap)

Mal: Nice shot.

Jayne: (slurred) I was aiming for his head.

Mal: What the hell?

(Inara punches him.)

Inara: Don’t you dare speak to me. Sheriff, I want this man bound by law at once. That’s assuming he hasn’t been already?

Sheriff: No one’s been bound, not yet.

Inara: Thank God you stopped them. (to Mal) Did you honestly think you could access my accounts and I wouldn’t find you? And Zoe, what would your husband say if he knew you were here?

Zoe: I… I was weak.

Sheriff: So I take it they ain’t newlyweds?

Inara: Hardly. Malcolm’s my indentured man, with three years left on his debt. I imagine we’ll have to add another six months after this little adventure.

Sheriff: (re: onlookers) You’ll have to pardon them. Don’t think a one of ’em’s ever seen a registered Companion before.

Inara: I apologize for my manner.

Sheriff: Oh, not a bit.

Inara: Should I contact my ship? Do you need to hold them very much longer?

Sheriff: Looks to me like we’re about done here. I, uh. We had some unrelated trouble. His story had kind of an odor to it.

Inara: Yes, it’s not the only thing about him that does. Thank you, very much Sheriff. (to Mal and Zoe) Come along.

Mal: Whatever happens, remember I love you.

Zoe: Sir?


Mal: Because you’re my wife.

Zoe: Right, sir… Honey.
