I didn't think she thought the t-shirt was a reason to murder. I thought she was trying to get rid of the logo.

I'm pretty sure she was channeling some anger re: Ariel, as it's more or less clear she knew about his betrayal from the moment it went wrong. "Don't look in the closet--it's greedy. It's not in the spirit of the season," and that face. A couple weeks/months and a mood swing later and she's prepared to take a small amount of vengeance out on the guy. Works for me.
The T-shirt thing's plausible too. I just like my theory is all.
Except, doesn't the slashing happen at the beginning of Ariel? Or should I be taking more of my confuzzlement medication?
Jars is right. She slashes him before he betrays her.
Hi ita! Linking you to it would do no good because my LJ is friends only, but my premiere writeup includes this line:
- Meet Ita. Highlight of the evening.
Saw flick. Will refrain from posting opinion. Will make various heads explode. But know this. Know this. @@ 4evah.
Jars is right. She slashes him before he betrays her.Bah. You're right. I only came up with that theory after having to watch episodes out of order over and over, which is what happens when you toaster both of your roommates and three of your friends inside of one month. T-shirt it is, then.
I always assumed she knew what he was going to do, and that's why she cut him.
Thing was, that would take precognition, since there hadn't yet been a plan to sneak River into Ariel, so Jayne wouldn't have had a reason to try to turn them in for the reward. That's where my theory sort of falls apart. She's psychic, but I'm not willing to believe she can see the future.
Allyson, as long as you don't set up SaveWash.com (I mean, somebody did that already) I'm sure you'll be fine.
I didn't think he'd made the decision to turn them in until River cut him. He's childish enough to want payback for it.
