I think you have a problem with your brain being missing, sir.
Not enough. Not nearly enough.
What's your least loved anyway?

You know, we could experiment and cancel football.
Hee hee. Brain.
Hee hee Chain.
That's all I got.

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.
My least favorite is The Message. Stupidest criminal scheme ever. Jerry Lewis!Wash. Obnoxiously over-the-top villain. Most of the crew acting like they have problems with their brains being missing. JerryLewis!Wash. It's just bad.
Which is disappointing, because barring Officer Scenechewer, I love everything up until immediately after they listen to Tracey's message, at which point the episode slowly gathers steam for it's plunge directly into suckville.
ETA: Actually, there's still some great stuff after that, but once Tracey wakes up, it's just plain ugh.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."
What never fails to crack me up from that episode? "You can't change that by gettin' all...bendy...and the lights...from the console..to keep you warm..." THUD "Did he just go crazy and then fall down?"
(From, admittedly not the best, memory)
ETA: That episode being the train job

I think I agree, Kalshane. It just...didn't seem to make sense not to tell Tracey they weren't going to freaking turn him in. And then on the commentary, they mention that it's supposed to be Wash's thing that he's calm under pressure, and here he was going crazy under pressure, and they decided whatever, go for the comedy rather than stay true to the character. Which...bugged me.
"Can I have your share?"
"No."
"If you die, can I have your share?"
"Yes."

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
"Did he just go crazy and then fall down?"
Hee. I was thinking of this line, too. But I think it may be "asleep" instead of "down".

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."
It's one of my favorite parts, and Kaylee's later. "We tried to move him, but he's just heavy."

All this time, I thought Hunter was a bitch. Turns out she was just hungry.
Am I the only one who quite likes the trailer music, un-Firefly-y though it may be?
Enjoy it while you can, monkey boy. That there's trailer music. Just put there to evoke whatever it's supposed to evoke.
