When Firefly was cancelled after only 11 episodes aired (way to go, Fox), it was the fan response that convinced Universal to give the film the green light. Joss rewarded us with a story that would have served as the plot line for the mythical Firefly: Season Two.
When an Alliance-devoted Operative learns that River was privy to a government-destroying secret, he sets out to capture her no matter the obstacle. But when River's "trigger" reveals her super soldier fighting skills, the Serenity crew has some questions of their own. Will the Operative capture the Tams before our crew can reveal the truth about Reavers?
Kristen and Mike discuss the reception of the film for non-Browncoats, what Mal believes in, and which characters were under-served.

In "Objects in Space", after River picks up a gun the crew discusses her danger to the rest of them. Meanwhile, a bounty hunter named Jubal Early sneaks onboard Serenity to apprehend the Tams. When River is not found on the ship, she announces that she has become Serenity. While Jubal tries to comprehend this, River forms a plan. Kristen and Mike discuss the existentialist themes of this episode, and compare and contrast River and Early.

31 October 2018, 12:28 pm - 1 hour 7 minutesThe Message / Heart of Gold
In "The Message", Zoe and Mal receive a crate in the mail containing the dead body of their former brother-in-arms, Tracy. As they try to return his body to his family, Serenity is attacked by feds demanding Tracy's corpse. When Simon attempts an autopsy, Tracy wakes up and explains that he's smuggling human organs. The crew must figure out how to save Tracy and themselves from the rogue feds. Kristen and Mike discuss Tracy's fatal flaw, and the more dramatic tone of this episode.
In "Heart of Gold", Inara's friend Nandi asks for help. Her brothel is under attack from a wealthy customer looking to steal a prostitute's baby. The crew jump to action fortifying the bordello and defending the women. When Mal hits it off with Nandi, Inara feigns indifference but is privately heartbroken. We examine Mal and Inara's relationship (or lack thereof), the crew's distinct roles in the battle, Jayne's respect for the working girls, and Kristen mixes up Nandi and Tandi repeatedly. Sorry, Graham-t! I mean, Nandi!
3 October 2018, 4:05 am - 1 hour 23 minutesWar Stories / Trash
When Wash gets jealous over Zoe and Mal's "War Stories", he insists on taking Zoe's usual spot on a job. Unfortunately, this happens to the be the day that Niska catches up with them. He's still sore over Mal giving back that black market medicine, and tortures Mal and Wash in retaliation. Kristen and Mike discuss the evolution of River's abilities, and Wash's growth as a character.
In "Trash", the crew runs into an old foe - Saffron... or Bridget... or Yolanda? She proposes a caper to steal an antique laser pistol from a rich collector. The plan to ditch the pistol in the trash and retrieve it later is going well - until they run into Saffron's husband. But the real one this time. We address Kristen's memory of this episode (or lack thereof), and why Saffon feels so different this time.

19 September 2018, 4:05 am - 1 hour 30 minutesOut of Gas / Ariel
In "Out of Gas", Serenity is crippled in deep space. With their oxygen running out, Mal orders the rest of the crew off ship to find help. While Mal attempts to fix his stranded ship, he remembers meeting each of his crew members for the first time. Kristen and Mike discuss the 3-timeline story structure, and the way the writers convey exposition visually.
In "Ariel", while the ship is docked on an Alliance planet, Simon proposes a heist to sneak River into the hospital. While Simon runs tests on River, Mal and Zoe steal valuable medicine. But when Jayne turns in the Tams for the reward money, they'll have to break out of custody and outrun the Hands of Blue men. We analyze River's diagnosis, and explore Mal's decision to spare Jayne.
PLUS! The Stackers share their stories of being lost or stranded.
5 September 2018, 12:36 pm - 1 hour 11 minutesField Trip #7 - Babe: Pig in the City
As promised, this week we're taking Andrew's advice (7:9 "Never Leave Me") and giving Babe a second chance in his second film - Babe: Pig in the City.
Although Babe is now a champion sheep herder, his troubles are not over. When an accident leaves the Farmer unable to work, his wife takes Babe on an exotic trip to earn some prize money and save the farm.
But when they're detained on a layover in Metropolis (or possibly an alien planet), Esme and Babe find refuge in a strange hotel full of animals and a circus troop. While Babe attempts to rescue the farm and his new friends, Esme just wants to rescue Babe. We discuss critics' reception of this film, the director's history, and the heartwarming rescue that will leave everyone in tears.
