Go To

Basically the entire episode is one long CMoF.

  • The opening scene of ambushing the bandits:
    Jayne: Y'see, I married me a powerful ugly creature!
    Mal: [dressed as the "wife"] How can you say that? How can you shame me in front of new people?
    Jayne: If I could make you prettier I would!
    Mal: You are not the man I met a year ago!
    [Mal and Jayne get the draw on the bandits]
    Mal: Now think real hard. You been bird-doggin' this township awhile now. They wouldn't mind a corpse of you. Now, you can luxuriate in a nice jail cell, but if your hand touches metal, I swear by my pretty floral bonnet, I will end you.
  • The simple fact that everyone—aside from Mal and Inara—seems to find the "Whoops I'm Married" situation rather funny at first.
  • The Special Hell.
    • "Ooooh, I'm going to the Special Hell..."
  • Jayne's attempt to get Mal to take him seriously. By offering up his best rifle as a trade for Saffron.
    • "Trade? It's outright theft!"
    • And receiving one of Mal's best lines in return: "Well, my days of not taking you seriously are certainly coming to a middle."
  • When Saffron is seducing Mal, she plies him with a Biblical-ish passage about "plowing". "Whoa, good Bible..."
    • And later, when she tries to seduce Wash with a myth about Earth-That-Was: "Whoa, good myth..."
  • When Saffron introduces herself as Mal's wife before the opening credits begin. Mal's "D:" face just screams what.
  • Mal leaning over to Jayne and asking, "How drunk was I last night?"
    • And Jayne's response of "Well, I dunno. I passed out."
  • Saffron offering to wash Mal's feet, followed by his "Not ONE WORD OUT OF YOU TWO" Death Glare at Wash and Zoe.
