Bag the crypto. Say what is on your mind.

The shooting script and dvd captions say Mal's line was "Nice work, Kaylee," to which she replies "Weren't soon enough to help."

(search for 'despondent' to jump to the line)

A line flub, perhaps. "Jewel" starts with a j-sound. Maybe Mr. Fillion had an "Oh, Sarah" near-miss.

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!

Oh, Sarah

Reference? Did this happen on Buffy?

He definitely says Kaylee, it just comes out a little weird for some reason.

Sounds like Kaylee to me.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

I listened to that over and over, and it sounds like Jerry Lee to me. Clear as can be. I always thought that was Wash's real name. Don't know where "Warren" ever came from, though.

I kinda liked him being Jerry Lee. Especially if you say it kinda slurred, like "Jer'lee." Which is how we say it where I'm from.

Naw. It's definitely a hard "k" at the beginning. He gets a little weird 'r' sound going in the middle though. But it's "Kaylee."

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

Hm. Ask Tim. Or, ask Joss at ComicCon.

Isn't he speaking to Kaylee?

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."

I wonder who would write a story where one character is named, say, Bob, and a second character is introduced to us named Larry, except that Larry's real name is actually Dob?

That is to say, despite the fact so many Firefly names are really obvious nouns, they aren't all really obvious nouns that are easily mistaken for one another when spoken aloud. I think you are only allowed to do that on television if you are working with Larry, Daryl and Daryl, and then only if the Daryls don't speak.
