Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

The link alone isn't going to work, Gus -- that's what Beverly did before. You need to take the URL and copy and paste it into a new browser window.

If you try her link after that, it'll work, because the pic's in cache.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

4th column, second row from the bottom -- it looks like Twiki is in the scene with Mal and Inara.

Ah. That is why mine works. Everyone come over and link to my cache. It will be a party. A really strange, single PC party.

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why? Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.

Judging by one of the clips, one of two things seems to have happened:

1) River gets caught again and Simon has to rescue her again.

2) It's a flashback and Joss is retconning Simon into having rescued River directly instead of paying to have her smuggled out.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

I think River was already in cryo before Simon picked her up. IIRC.

That's what I meant. But the scene from the trailer with River in the chair of doom and Simon with the flashy thing suggests either another rescue or a retconn of the original.

Kalshane is a trufan. Still, I'm not getting either of these.

Oh. See, I don't see a flashback contradicting something in an episode to be a retconn, just bad continuity. Unless, say, it turns out that Simon lied in the pilot episode. Maybe my definition of 'retconn' is too restrictive?

What are you guys talking about?

What flashback? Simon with the bouncing-betty device?
