Just watched Safe last night and I did notice something that I never noticed before. When Mal talks to Simon about taking River to town while he takes care of the deal with the cattle, there is a split second scene of a rustle in some bushes. I think this is supposed to show that the kidnapping hill folk were there listening in. I always did wonder how they knew Simon was a doctor. Now I know.

One shot has Kaylee's left leg in frame and you can see clearly that she has stitched a teddy bear into the pantleg of her mechanics overalls. I thought that was endearing.

My wife said I've not to put beans in me ears
Beans in me ears
Beans in me ears
Well my wife said I've not to put beans in me ears
Beans in my ears

Now why should I want to put beans in me ears?
I mean - beans in me ears
It's daft - beans in me ears
Well now why should I want to put beans in me ears?
Beans in my ears

'Cos you can't hear nagging wives when you've got beans in yer ears
Little beans in yer ears
Tiny beans in yer ears
No you can't hear nagging wives when you've got beans in yer ears
Beans in yer ears

What's that you say? Let's put beans in our ears?
Beans in our ears? (Yeah!)
Beans in our ears? (Yeah, beans!)
What's that? You say let's put beans in our ears? (giggling)
Beans? In our ears?

Oi! You'll have to speak up, I've got beans in me ears!
I say, beans in me ears!
In me ears!
Oi, you'll have to speak up, I've got beans in me ears!
In me ears!

(degenerates into madness)

Darling, darling, they've, they've gone and put beans in me ears
Oh, beans in me ears
I say, darling, y'know, they, they've gone and put beans in my ears
Beans, in my ears

That's nice dear, just don't put those beans in your ears (No, I said they've --)
Beans in your ears (No, listen --)
Beans in your ears (No, they've already--)
That's nice dear, but, just don't put those nasty little beans in your ears (No, listen!)
Beans in your ears (Hey! Oh...)

I think that all wives have got beans in their ears
Great big beans in their ears
Whopping beans in their ears
Yes I think that all wives have got beans in their ears
Beans in their ears!

When Kayhlee is comforting Saffron and saying how Mal is like a monster and makes everybody cry, Jayne's fingerless-gloved hand comes in from the right and strokes her on the shoulder with his pinky, as if he were comforting her too. I couldn't stop laughing.

Zoot,

I knew the song from the late Lonnie Donegan's 1964 recording. But I doubt he wrote this masterpiece himself! My transcription:

So there you go. The tune is a chirpy folky little number, very mid-60s Lonnie if you know the kind of thing. Banjos and very probably washboards to the fore.

Glad to see someone else appreciates the Donegan magic! And no, not around so much these days. I'm such an asocial coward that my presence in a group can never be taken for granted! But I'm still booked in for the Starfury con, so I expect I'll be there.

Just watched it last night. That was pretty funny. I never noticed it before either. Kaylee just stole the stage and I never noticed what was going on at the sides of the screen. I don't even know why it was funny but it was. Perfectly executed IMO.

Watched the pilot and Train Job last night in anticipation of the movie tonight. Near the end, the creepifying Blue Hands guy says, "I didn't come 86 million miles to investigate the theft of some medical supplies" (or something to that effect). It occured to me that 86 million miles, spacially, isn't all that far - you know, about the distance from the Sun to the Earth-that-is.

That's our lovely Firefly writers. They're great with the stories, but when it comes to the science of space, uh...

Unless maybe the blue hands man came from a planet near to the ship they were in. hmm.

After observing the bear I paid attention to any other shots of her in the episode just to see if there are other cute things worth noticing and I found one other...she has a little red heart on the front of her overalls too. You can see the heart when she places her hands on her hips after Mal says "I don't think there's a power in the 'verse can stop Kaylee from being cheerful".
