So, having heard it was fabulous two weeks ago, was it also fabulous tonight?

It was ratty. I SO need to get it trimmed. Split ends suck.

So, what was the sooper seekrit Firefly plot, already?

I was all guarded about answering this, and then realized it's now on DVD. Funny how I never shake that. I can't spill seekrits. Even when no longer seekrits. Here goes it, and forgive that I'm not as good at telling the story.

Whitefont:

She has yet another fight with Mal, in which he says something especially cruel like "I'm not going to get on my knees and kiss your hand like your a lady. You're a whore."

Inara has a sort of chemical weapon in case of rape, so whomever attacks will die immediately after raping her. (I'm not saying this all as eloquently, I'm pre-coffee).

She's kidnapped by reavers in an attack. Mal and crew go in to the reaver ship to save her.

What they find is the entire crew of reavers, all dead, and Inara huddled on the floor, beaten half to death.

Later, in Inara's shuttle, it's only Zoe there, guarding her silently. Mal tried to come in, and Zoe opens a can of whup ass and tells Mal no fucking way is anyone coming in.

Mal gets past Zoe (yeah, right) and walks over to Inara's bed where she's curled up and post-traumatic. Gets on his knees, and kisses her hand.

And why was Joss humping a couch?

Because it was there.

The audience asked for an embarassing story which they could use to torture Joss at his thing tomorrow.

Wait, that's on the DVDs? I missed it. But it means we know what the syringe was about, doesn't it?

I kinda like it, even if it is schmoop with a hammer.

Awww, splendid. Thanks for the recap, Allyson.

I hate it. The J. Wee Wee school of thought is that about three months later, she has a love affair with a Reaver.

It's not on the Firefly DVDs, Tim was filmed last night and the class will be available for purchase.

I should add that he was a smash and one of the conference people said it was the best class he'd seen.

Someone asked a question about how long a writer has to complete a script once it is broken. Tim said that it varied, could be 8 days, but that he wrote Out of Gas over a weekend...and the room gasped.

Oooh, Betsy, and Tim talked about you on the way home. You are clearly the favorite.

The J. Wee Wee school of thought is that about three months later, she has a love affair with a Reaver.

Well, that's appalling, but that's also not what you summarised. I like what you summarised.

I hate it. The J. Wee Wee school of thought is that about three months later, she has a love affair with a Reaver.

But it will be a Reaver with a soul conscience. See, the Reaver once killed the daughter of some Gypsies space Gypsies, and they put a curse on him gave him brain surgery that restored his soul conscience. However, he still can't go out in daylight watch pro wrestling without bursting into flames feeling "not so fresh".
