Something that's not my observation but that comes from the Shindig commentary. The costume designer mentioned that the leather string Zoe always wears around her neck is a symbol of her marraige bond to Wash. Such a subtle touch, and somehow much deeper than if she'd worn a ring - which in the rougher places she always ends up would be a target for thieves.

There is apparently a Chinese proverb that states "a poorly sculpted swan appears as a duck, a badly painted tiger can look like a dog," or something similar.

The meaning of this seems to be that it is better to leave something undone than to do it and have it... well, look like a duck.

Some people juggle geese.

I'm not sure if anyone has said this already, and if it has, I apologize in advance. In Objects in Space, when Early is looking at the wanted poster for Simon and River, the camera pans over his control board. On the control board there is a old picture of an old black woman and a golden retriever. This is possibly what River sees to get her started talking with Early about the dog and his mother. Not to discount her physcic powers, as she learns about Early killing the dog through those, but just an observation, which I only picked up after watching the episode for the fourth time.

No power in the verse can stop me

I noticed the picture too. You know, there's a type of ESP called Psychometry, and basically it means that a Psychic could read all the history of an object, what it means, what it is/was, and this might have been how she knew about his tendancies.

Tangientially, I know that Jayne tends to touch stuff, but has anyone noticed River doing this as well? This may be in part what the Academy people did to her.

If anyone gets nosy...Shoot em.
Shoot em sir?
Politely.

Now, aside from the debate over whether Simon's procedure is medically feasible, I think Inara's reaction is relevant to her story. Up until yesterday, I believed that Inara was trying to keep herself looking younger by injecting herself with some kind of youth serum. But if she's so afraid of needles, how could that be? One little detail has made me start looking for a new conspiracy theory...

Just a thought.

I don't think turning away to see someone you love getting stabbed in through the sternum with a three inch needle makes a person afraid of needles. Hell, I would have zero problem watching that done to a stranger... but my kids daughters or my mom? Yeah, I'd probably want to turn around for that. Besides, how much hard core medical training/exposure does one get at the Training House?

Ok, so maybe I got a little too excited...

One day.
One mission.
One legion of Browncoats.

I think it's the third option. The brain screen goes kind of crazy right before she starts screaming, which I think might indicate that it is recording her psychic powers. But, if I recall correctly, Simon isn't looking at the screen at that moment, he's looking at Jayne. (Haven't watched it in awhile, so I could be wrong). So he misses the whole thing. Of course, according to the escape in the BDM, I guess he already knows.

Hope that means you aren't crazy ;)

What IS subtle in OiS is the fact that when Early is leading Simon through the ship, they pass the spacesuit locker... which is open.

Because at that point, although the audience doesn't know it yet, River has already left the ship to go sit inside Early's.

At the very end of the episode, when River and Kaylee are playing jacks, River says "I can do this" and drops a rubber ball that looks pretty much the same as the planet they passed by at the beginning of the show.
