Taking place about six months after the [[The Movie]], the ''Serenity'' crew is strapped for cash and takes on the ridiculous job of hunting down an alien. Meanwhile, after the events of ''[[Doctor Who/Recap/2006 CS the Runaway Bride|The Runaway Bride]]'', the Doctor decides to go someplace completely new, and finds himself having to convince Mal to take him on as a passenger.

{{tropelist}}
* [[Alien Blood]]: The Doctor's blood is a paler shade of red than a human's.
Line 11 ⟶ 12:
* [[Alien Invasion]]: Right after the colonies left, {{spoiler|Earth was hit with a bunch of these. The Doctor claims it's probably why the colonies have been cut off for so long}}.
* [[Always Lawful Good]]: Mokshar. Their bodies are somehow evolutionarily programmed to stop working properly if they break their own [[Actual Pacifist]]-based religious laws. {{spoiler|The [[Big Bad]], however, is pissed off enough by the Time War that he manages to subvert this... initially.}}
* [[Back
* [[Bad Liar]]: The Doctor laments his inability to lie convincingly in this regeneration several times.
* {{spoiler|[[Balancing Death's Books]]}}
Line 19 ⟶ 20:
* [[Beware the Nice Ones]]: The bad guy failed to do this. He pays for it.
* [[Big Damn Heroes]]: It's ''[[Trope Namer|Firefly]]'' and ''Doctor Who''. Of ''course'' there's [[Big Damn Heroes]].
* [[Bizarre Alien Biology]]: The author mentions a couple of the odd quirks of Time Lord biology that were mentioned in the
** [[The Nth Doctor|Regeneration]].
** Two hearts.
Line 44 ⟶ 45:
* [[Hidden in Plain Sight]]: The ''Serenity'' crew tends to forget that a giant blue box from the [[Earth-That-Was]] is sitting around in storage. [[Human Alien|The Doctor himself]] also counts, as they are supposed to be looking for an alien, but they keep getting sidetracked.
* [[Hoist by His Own Petard]]: The [[Big Bad]] at one point successfully {{spoiler|breaks into the Doctor's mind. [[Oh Crap|It's exactly what the Doctor wanted him to do]]}}.
* [[Humans Are
* [[Hypno Trinket]]: These were used primarily to gain control over {{spoiler|Reavers (as well as a few humans)}}.
* [[I Did What I Had to Do]]: The primary reasoning of the [[Big Bad]], as well as Zeke, the leader of a town plagued by Reavers.
Line 51 ⟶ 52:
{{quote|'''The Doctor''': You must be mistaken, Leftenant. The lady and I were just out for a stroll. You must have mistaken us for someone else.
'''Security Mook''': Then how do you explain the blood all over you?
'''The Doctor''': [[I Can Explain|Um...I got mugged?]] Really, you should do something about that, streets aren't even safe... You're not buying that for a minute, are you?
'''Security Mook''': Not so much.
'''The Doctor''': Well, it was worth a try. Still, kept you distracted, didn't I? And that worked very well indeed.
*Jayne proceeds to open fire* }}
* [[Irony]]: [[Human Alien|The Doctor]] is clearly enjoying himself immensely every time somebody mentions how stupid the idea of aliens is.
Line 62 ⟶ 63:
* [[Masquerade]]: The enemy's base has the cover of a business. No one working there knows anything about their boss.
* [[Mind Control Device]]: See [[Hypno Trinket]] above.
* [[A Mind Is a Terrible Thing to Read]]: Subverted. The Doctor considers figuring out River this way, but besides [[Go Mad
* [[Mind Over Manners]]: {{spoiler|The only time the Doctor does anything with River's mind is when she explicitly allows him to}}.
* [[Mind Rape]]: The [[Big Bad]] pulls this on both {{spoiler|Mal and the Doctor}}. The Doctor even uses that term.
