They aren't just looking for River and Simon. They're looking for anything incriminating. River and Simon just happen to be on the list because the ship is a Firefly.

I noticed that too, and it was pretty funny. He flips over placemat after placemat...

I (know) they are looking for anything. But comeon, it ain't under a gorram placemat!

It just cracks me up everytime.

Did you guys notice that he looks under the same one twice? In general that scene is pretty stupid, why would one need 20 or so feds to look through a small kitchen? Completely inefficient, they'll just end up being in each others' way and searching places (and placemats) that somebody else already searched.



Other people can occasionally be useful, especially as minions. I want lots of minions.

Well, Joss did say in the commentary (can't remember which ep) that he wanted to make the Alliance seem all big and inefficient. That's why those huge Alliance ships look the way they do.

Looks like he was successful accomplishing this from a number of angles
