But it's more like "Dude, don't do that!" behaviour than something requiring much medication, therapy, or hospitalisation.
Mal: And I never back down from a fight. Inara: Yes, you do! You do all the time!

Firefly 4: Also, we can kill you with our brains
Discussion of the Mutant Enemy series, Firefly, the ensuing movie Serenity, and other projects in that universe. Like the other show threads, anything broadcast in the US is fine; spoilers are verboten and will be deleted if found.

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

Starting fights in enemy bars every Bastille Day? Not exactually grounds for membership in the Sane Human Beings club.
It's like you don't even hang out with frat boys.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.
I was gonna say.

If we're really lucky, they'll do it in that order...
Reports, both from some of the places who have posted these, and apparently from Joss himself at the Premier, is that there are five Sessions in total.
There was nothing said at the premier Q&A about these, so unless it was a private conversation?
So, what is the order of these segments, and is there a single place to get them from? Other than, you know, reading back through this thread. ;)

The link here: dcp "Firefly 4: Also, we can kill you with our brains" Aug 29, 2005 11:47:54 am PDT has links to them all.

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.
what is the order of these segments
They were released 416, 1, 22, 165, so try watching in that order first.
416 has maximum WTF?
1 has maximum "Awwwww...."
Watching them in ascending numerical order works pretty well, too.

Re: "is there a single place to get them from" -- I am keeping a list of mirrors which links to each, in both .mov and .wmv versions, as well as single files which present all currently-available clips in release order.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
Aaah Session 165. The craziness.
I just e-mailed the transcript to bix, but here it is for you dial-up/no sound people. For a short while, a Buffista exclusive! Also I only think this is ninety-five percent accurate, and maybe you guys can bring it up to a hundred. People seem to be spoilerfonting to let people experience them properly, so I'll be considerate.
RIVER: Yes I have a system. You make an assumption because you have a system, your system, you're symptomatic, it's chronic! You think it's benign, that it has to be cut out, this system is simple. Blanket folded thus the sheet pulled taut the mattress. The mattress can't be trusted, it has to be gutted. I looked under twenty and found a pea and you wonder why I'm not sleeping? [pause] Are you worried that I cut up my mattress for no reason or that I had a perfectly good reason that you can't see? Can't...see...anyone. Even the orderlies wear masks.
INTERVIEWER: Why did you cut up your mattress?
RIVER: I am trying to protect my spine.
INTERVIEWER: Are you worried you might be injured? Your movement trainers have given you excellent marks--
RIVER: No one will give me a mission.
INTERVIEWER: A mission.
RIVER: I have a reason. I'm...rea-son-a-ble. I have a reason.
[cut]
RIVER: My movement hasn't been dictated yet but I am not here for nothing. I...am a...sti...sty. And you know I have a spine. There's something wrong...with the body politic.
[cut]
RIVER: AAAAHHH! They're sticking in me! It's in the mattress, and it's crawling inside me! Please cut it out, please cut it out, please cut it out!

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
DragonCon has updated their site to reflect that Joss isn't coming. Nathan Fillion and Summer Glau have also dropped out.

You know, we could experiment and cancel football.
Makes sense since Nathan and Summer will both be at screenings in Europe.
