Thanks for the explanation. I didn't see a search feature or I could've probably figured it out for myself.

Simon paid to get help breaking River out, and then to have her placed in cryo to make it off world surreptitiously, covering his tracks.
Like Doncoat said, Simon was not presenting the entire story to the crew in the pilot...

Am I missing something?

This clearly implies that he was not involved in the escape, but rather paid to have others sneak her out of the government facility.

Yes, this is what it implies, but one thing:
There is still the loophole that he may not have been telling the whole story to the crew for the sake of simplification.
His statement does not preclude that he might have... " funded them to make it possible for me to help her to escape, then they could sneak her out of the core planets in cryo to avoid detection, get her to Persephone safely, and from there I could take her... wherever."

It isn't an impossibility, is all Chrisisall

In most forums sure. But around here another person poping up to ask all the old questions is a new recruit. Another victory in our quixotic mission to bring Serenifly to the masses.

A workaround for serching these forums is available. Use advanced google search and in the box that says search this domain type in fireflyfans.net then type whatever your looking for in the search box as usual. It's a bit clunky but it works.

Ahh yes, site search. Just FYI, there's an easier way to do so than going into the advanced search screen. All you gotta do is type the following in the search bar at google.com:

Look, there's a continuity problem here. The mere fact that you need a loophole to explain things is evidence of it. I've already said that it makes sense why Joss decided to change things, so I'm truly at a loss for why you feel the need to deny there was ever any issue with the continuity.
