So Mal immediately sees her as a threat possibly requiring deadly force to contain.... he went for his gun right away, didn't try to talk her down or anything. (Not that I think he should have, I'm just working through the possibilities.) So he recognized her as a danger.

Mal, if you knew all that, your huffing and puffing right now is kind of hypocritical. You knew she was dangerous and you chose to carry her back to the ship.

Talk to Mr. Universe!

An intricate plan on how they would be NOT here.

I wish Mal had answered that question...why DID you take her back on?

Not that I mind, but with all his blustering, you'd think he'd have run from that bar at warp speed.

I think the character of Mr. Universe was a misstep. I know they needed someone to provide exposition, but he doesn't work for me.

didn't try to talk her down or anything.

Security feed direct. Can't stop the signal.

I wasn't the first one in.

I think the character of Mr. Universe was a misstep.

I dunno. I think he was sudden. But if Serenity had been a season or three of Firefly, he might have been an old friend to us. Or maybe he'd be Poochy.

Morgana, I agree.
