▲This is a [[How We Got Here]] episode that begins with Mal sitting naked on a rock in the middle of the desert. We then go back in time three days to a rendezvous between Mal and an old war buddy, who cheerfully introduces his new wife Brigit. Mal recognizes ‘Brigit’ as [[Firefly (TV series)/Recap/E06 Our Mrs. Reynolds|Saffron]]. A furious scuffle ensues, ending with Mal’s buddy leaving the two of them on the planet.
Saffron offers to let Mal in on an extremely lucrative heist, which he takes up after Inara complains about the lack of real jobs. Inara vigorously objects, but Zoe (after a [[My Fist Forgives You]]) agrees to go along. The target is an original model laser gun on the estate of a wealthy Alliance official.
Line 8 ⟶ 19:
Saffron then heads over to the drop point to pick up the laser gun, confident she had enough time since she damaged Serenity and knows they will be late. Instead she finds Inara waiting for her, and gets locked in a dumpster and left for the Feds.
Back on the ship, Jayne (who was injured earlier while reprogramming the dumpster) comes to in medical, unable to move. Simon explains that this is temporary, and then has a nice chat with Jayne about [[Firefly (TV series)/Recap/E09 Ariel|what happened on Ariel]], and how they really should trust each other. He promises not to hurt Jayne, and then leaves. River then informs Jayne that if he ever sells them out again, she’ll kill him with her brain.
Tropes include:
* [[Bad Bad Acting]]: It's not terrible, by any means, but the crew are a little... ''off'' while discussing the plan with Saffron. Inara even remarks that she's surprised Saffron didn't see through it.
* [[The Caper]]
* [[Easily Forgiven]]: The crew seems surprisingly willing to work with Saffron, even after the whole lightningy-death thing from "[[Firefly (TV series)/Recap/E06 Our Mrs. Reynolds|Our Mrs. Reynolds]]". But then, that doesn't mean they ''trust'' her.
* [[How We Got Here]]
* [[Magnificent Bastard|Magnificent Bitch]]: Saffron masterminding the caper.
Line 24 ⟶ 35:
* [[Villainous Breakdown]]: Saffron fakes one to lower Mal's guard before hijacking his shuttle.
