* CompleteMonster: Jubal Early debuts here as an aloof yet sadistic BountyHunter seeking to turn in the Tam siblings for the reward on their heads. Incapacitating the crew of the Serenity and threatening to [[RapeIsASpecialKindOfEvil rape]] and torture Kaylee to keep some in line, Early is seemingly beaten after he is revealed to be a PsychoForHire who only has his job because he enjoys hurting others. Returning in the comic book ''ComicBook/SerenityLeavesOnTheWind'', Early kills an entire staff of security guards just for prohibiting him entry to a meeting, and later bombs a smuggler ship in another attempt to capture the crew of the Serenity, killing a dozen innocent people in the process. Despite his claims that he follows a code and is only doing his job for the money, Early is actually nothing but a cruel bully who views killing people as a "passion".

* FoeYay: There's that bit where Jubal comments that maybe River sleeps with someone else on the ship. His tone makes it sound like he almost ''wanted'' it to be true. And how he keeps calling River "darlin'," and how he said "Best to go on with ol' Early...." Plus, the implied raping threats. Suddenly, Early is a ''thousand'' times creepier.
** "You crawl inside me uninvited...." River, you are ''not'' helping with dispelling the NoYay of this episode.

* NoYay: An extremely creepy one-way version of this between Jubal Early and River. Pretty much ''all'' of his lines regarding her can easily be interpreted as sexual in nature, and that's ''before'' you factor in the rape threats. Not to mention River's line, "You crawl inside me uninvited," which does NOT help things.

to:

* CompleteMonster: See [[YMMV/{{Firefly}} here]].EnsembleDarkhorse: Jubal Early. Only appeared in this episode, and yet he's probably the single most iconic character in the whole series who's not one of the leads.
* EvilIsCool: Jubal Early might actually have played this trope straight, if not for River's ruthless and unnerving analysis.
