    Is Saffron Trustworthy?

    Mal has an encounter with his old friend Monty Reynolds to transfer cargo to be smuggled and Monty tells that he got married. When he introduces his wife Bridget to Mal, he leans that she is Saffron. Monty leaves the woman on the planet and Mal locks her in a trunk and brings her on board of the Serenity. Soon Saffron proposes Mal and his crew to steal the priceless antique, the laser pistol Lassiter, from Durran Haymer in his fortress in the planet Balerephon. Is Saffron trustworthy?

    "Trash" brings Saffron back to the show, seducing different men. Now she proposes a heist to Ml and his crew and the question is whether Saffron can be trusted or not, and whether Mal is naive or not. My vote is nine.

    Title (Brazil): "Trash"

    Saffron is a boring an annoying character...

    By far the weakest Firefly episode, nothing matter in this episode, its just boring from 10 minutes in the episode i couldnt Care less. Saffron is not interesting at all, boring and annoying, one of the most annoying ive Seen on TV... One episode on her was good enough, but 2 ? Was the plan to make her a recurent character in the show, if its the case im glad they cancel the show, she is trash and this episode was trash Barely a 6/10 , far from " Out of gas" the best firefly episode.

      The tattoo visible on Mal's hip is an Egyptian glyph meaning peace. Nathan Fillion got it at the age of 19 and reportedly regrets it.

      During the attempt to reprogram the waste disposal unit, the first shot of the computer screen shows a Microsoft Windows desktop.

      So what. Microsoft Windows is the operating system for the waste disposal unit. Not a goof.
    • Quotes

      Simon: You're in a dangerous line of work, Jayne. Odds are you'll be under my knife again, often. So I want you to understand one thing very clearly: No matter what you do or say or plot, no matter how you come down on us, I will never, ever harm you. You're on this table, you're safe... 'cause I'm your medic. And however little we may like or trust each other, we're on the same crew. Got the same troubles, same enemies, and more than enough of both. Now, we could circle each other and growl, sleep with one eye open, but that thought wearies me. I don't care what you've done, I don't know what you're planning on doing, but I'm trusting you. I think you should do the same. 'Cause I don't see this working any other way.

      [exits]

      River: Also, I can kill you with my brain.

      The intended order differs from the released order with the 2-hour pilot 'Serenity' and the season finale 'Objects in Space' being released in the middle of the show run. The true order appears on all modern media releases and is as follows - Serenity, The Train Job, Bushwacked, Shindig, Safe, Our Mrs. Reynolds, Jaynestown, Out of Gas, Ariel, War Stories, Trash, The Message, Heart of Gold, and Objects in Space.
