Line 43:
* [[Hannibal Lecture]]: The [[Big Bad]] does this to the Doctor. The Doctor later [["The Reason You Suck" Speech|returns the favor]].
* [[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 Byby 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 Bastards]]: The Doctor goes on one of his famous rants when he finds out what the Alliance did to River's brain.
* [[Hypno Trinket]]: These were used primarily to gain control over {{spoiler|Reavers (as well as a few humans)}}.
Line 62:
* [[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 Toto Read]]: Subverted. The Doctor considers figuring out River this way, but besides [[Go Mad From the Revelation|the]] [[Mind Rape|obvious]] [[Mind Over Manners|problems]], believes that it's so much more interesting to get to know people without it.
* [[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.
Line 101:
* [[Vagueness Is Coming]]: The way River often talks anyway. In this case, she predicts the Doctor at the end of the first chapter. By one of his ''[[Names to Run Away From Really Fast|scary]]'' names.
** [[Lampshade Hanging|Lampshaded]]:
{{quote| '''Mal:''' She said, and I quote, '[[A Storm Is Coming|A storm is coming]].'<br />
'''Inara:''' That's...vague. }}
* [[Villainous Breakdown]]: Once the Doctor {{spoiler|traps the [[Big Bad]] 's mind, he turns into jelly}}.
