I always look forward to you synopsis of your favorite parts of the show, Anti. I'm watching the director and writer's commentary on the episode now, so, as long as I can stay awake I'll post that, too. One of the interesting things I've seen so far is that one of the things they were aiming to do in this episode was to create a submarine movie, which makes sense. I love submarine movies. If you think about it, the original Alien movie was one set in outer space, like this. Also, if you look, one of the things Adam Baldwin does in every scene is that he has to touch something.  Also, Gina Torres in real life had just gotten married to Lawrence Fishbourne during this episode, so she was gone for about 4 days on her honeymoon. |

With each episode, I can really see many many many similarities between us and Firefly... and Moon is just like Mal... with humor, and he knows what needs to be done... and just like Mal, Moon found the ship which we call home (this forum), he found his crew (the staff), even took in 'passengers' (the other members of our family)... I can see a lot of Firefly in us... And I'm proud to be a browncoat! ![]() Yeah, but if we ever lose our catalyzer we're in trouble!  |

Very interesting. Now, I will be looking for Jayne to touch something in every episode.  Looking forward to your comments on the Director's Cut. |

And I am looking forward to your comments on the director's cut as well. |

Right you are Chloe. Raising you to 8% now. I loved the way they described the final scene, where the salesman is trying to sell Mal another ship, yet like a man watching a beautiful woman across the room, Mal's eyes are always on the Firefly. They called it 'a grace note.' |

I am ending my night with a sigh and a chuckle from the previous two posts. Firefly is beautiful and the desciption "a grace note" sounds quite appropriate. *sigh* I guess Jayne and I have something in common. I was shocked when he went to all that trouble to put on a disguise in the previous episode. In this episode, it was revealed that he did not become a member of the crew because he was a big, bad, tough guy who would kick butt. He did it for money and a bed. So now, the disguise makes perfect sense. |
