Why can't Kaylee see that Simon is gay?

A thought has been bouncing around my big, hollow skull that maybe Book is either spying on, or looking after Mal for some reason. I'd love to find out - even a hint!

Plus I want it finally confirmed that it's more than one star system. To my mind it has to, if they were looking at a map (even on that isn't a real map of the 'Verse as the press kit suggests) well that screams to me more than one solar system. Wouldn't need a map to get around in one solar system, maybe a "where are the planets right now" rotational computer program but not a map with lots of stars and whatnot on it.

My biggest question is just who is Book and why is he there?

In the pilot, he was wandering the docks looking at the ships, not the destinations - which Kaylee picked up on.

I think there is a reason for him being there beyond his being out of the world and wanting to walk it a while.

...Simon was getting hit, so what would he know about it? And Lawrence was coming up behind Mal. There is a beat, that makes you think Book knows something -- but then we know he knows what he knows because of what he sees.

No doubt.

Of course they were all told to stay out of the cargo bay unless they were escorted. Nobody had escorted Book to the bay, yet he was there anyway.

Others had said that Book could have been there looking after Simon and River. I thought of that too, except it's not clear from the episode who came first, Book or Simon. Book was presumably aboard before Mal, Zoe and Janye returned from Badger's because we see Wash bringing Simon's cargo aboard (River) with the mule when they arrive. That's when we first see Dobson.

We didn't see Dobson arranging the ride, or in what order Simon, Book and Dobson made their arrangements. Since Dobson was there following Simon and River, MAYBE Book was the last one on board. We just don't know.

It makes sense that Book was former Alliance in some capacity, and I love the idea that he was part of some underground anti-Alliance group. Huge, overbearing (probably overtaxing) government like that is ripe for sedition.

I don't want ALL my questions answered either, like others have posted. At least, I don't want them answered until they've made all the Firefly movies that they are going to make.

I HOPE we get a trilogy out of this if it's not coming back to weekly television. Personally, I think I prefer a series, but I'll take the trilogy.

I just ruttin' love this show!

The one worry I have is that the movie will be a flop from a quality viewpoint. Just because it was good TV doesn't mean it will translate well to the big screen. Both TV and the movies have sufficiently large graveyards of producers and directors who thought because they were good in one medium, they'd be good in the other.

BTW: Zoid, I like your quote, where is it from? A Child Shall Lead Them: A History of the Second War of Independence sounds intersting, what is it?

So, Zoid, do you ever get tired of having to explain the source for your quotes?

I like Wash's; I kinda figured he was in business with Jayne after your last hint. And I like the little play between his and Zoe's.

Is it my imagination, or are they changing more frequently than they used to?

I've always had trouble with the Alpha-Bravo-Charlie alphabet; there are some I cannot remember no matter how many times I memorize the list -- P, S, U, and W. No idea why.

As for Wash being the brains and Jayne the brawn, I can see it, and certainly more believable than the other way around. So is Zoe writing the future equivalent of Danny the Dinosaur, or has she carved out her own niche?

I can appreciate your fear. But answer this question: Discounting the TV-budget sets, wardrobe and supernumerary-sparse battle scenes, when you finally got a chance to see the 2-hour pilot, "Serenity", didn't you think you'd just seen a terrific stand-alone movie? I did. I'm something of a film lover, and I thought it was witty, touching and with never a misstep in the story or its pacing. If they'd spent $50M on the scenery and other details, it would have been a blockbuster in the theatres. That's what Firefly: Serenity is going to be. A theatrical-grade Joss Whedon/Tim Minear story; not the same story, but a story only they can tell, as only they can tell it. I, for one, am very excited; I know JW and TM are going to do us proud. Even though I expect them to give us pretty solid answers to some of these questions, I also expect that the movie will amaze us, as well. I've got a feeling...

Hits like "The Sixth Sense" and "My Big Fat Greek Wedding" have proven that a significant portion of the moviegoing public are looking for something more than just formulaic drivel for their entertainment dollars. Firefly: Serenity will give them that 'more', in spades.

Fly baby, fly. Make your Mama sigh!
