- “Whoa. Good Bible.” In one episode, Mal winds up unknowingly taking a wife as a thank you gift from the local people. And when he refuses to sleep with her, she does the best seductive reading of the Bible I have ever seen or heard, which culminates in Mal’s oddly appreciative line above.

- “She’s tore up plenty, but she’ll fly true.” I am not going to spoil it if you haven’t seen it but towards the end of the movie, the character of Zoe has been put through the ringer and Mal has every reason to wonder how she is doing.

In the future, intrepid earthlings will use a new form of slang, including Chinese terms and the repurposed word “shiny.” For the crew of the spaceship Serenity, this means a variety of things, as it appears more than once in the script.

The crew of Serenity are interplanetary outlaws, who perform illegal activities while trying to stay one step ahead of the planetary Alliance.

In the fictional universe of Serenity, a mysterious and vicious race known as Reavers skulk about the galaxy in search of innocent victims.

One of the biggest clues to the struggles awaiting the Serenity crew come early from the lips of the sporadically deranged River - after watching a subliminal advertisement at a refuge bar, she utters one word - “Miranda.” Even her brother Simon doesn't know what this word means - is it a person, a place, or something more sinister? Their eventual ...
