I went to the trivia page for Firefly on imdb and read something I never noticed before:

In the episode "Trash" when Saffron looks out the window of her husband's estate , Jubal Early's ship can be seen flying past (he had been following Serentiy since Ariel.)


Anyone else ever catch this?

Trash is coming up in my current rewatching of the whole series. I'll have to look for this.

I've never seen it before.

BTW, I have confirmed it. For once imdb got something right. I'm just wondering if anyone caught it on their own.

Dang! I just watched Trash day before yesterday! Jubal coulda jumped me, as I don't recall seein' him at all!
I guess it's mostly what yer lookin' for.
Guess I'll see it next time, though.

the movie is not the Series. Only the facts have been changed, to irritate the innocent; the names of the actors and characters remain the same

Been watching the show for a year; spotted this about six months ago (no idea how many viewings, before or after, but lots).

Serenity is a Firefly, a ship familiar to shepherds, cops & chop shops. There must be a lot of them around. We have no reason to suppose that Early's is a custom built hull. On the other hand, it could be Craig T Nelson flying the Blackbird, & prolly is Clint flying the Firefox, since that was a prototype.

Wow. I've just got to put my 2 bits in. It amazes me that you caught that. I sure as heck didn't. Here I thought I was perceptive.

I know where the blackbird is (In Trash when Mal and Saffron are landing at the estate, the exterior shot, it goes from top right hand to bottom left hand corner. I think the time is around 18:30.) But where is the Firefox?

May have been the losing side. Still not convinced it was the wrong one.


It wasn't until I watched the episode for the 3rd time before I caught Early's ship flying past the window. Don't know how I missed it the first couple of times.

It was the SR71 on the right before it passed behind the building and it appeared to me to switch to the Firefox as it emerged from behind the building to continue to the left.

I just went to the official site. Guess what the trivia question is.

Therre may well be a more mundane explanation....

The visual fx guys may have wanted some activity happening thru the window and Jubal's ship may simply have been modelled and ready to go. It fits the world, they own the rights to use it, it flies by fast. I do enough cgi to know that the flava stuff in the background is where you have to pull some shortcuts in order to meet deadline, and this one makes sense.

I LOVE the idea that Jubal was tailing them and can be seen there. It just feels more like a retcon than a carefully planned out thing.
