Mal meets his contact Badger, an old acquaintance from the as-yet unaired pilot for the series, for a possible cargo hauling job |
||
Badger, an aging Artful Dodger-type, explains that the client is actually someone Mal must meet at the society ball that night |
Mal agrees, while also enjoying the unintentionally humorous double-entendres the contact keeps making |
|
The society ball, a hot bed of social arrogance and cargo discussions |
||
Inara and her old friend arrive together looking quite splendid |
||
Mal invites Kaylee and the poofy dress to the ball, earning comments from Kaylee on his tight pants |
and the glories of the buffet |
|
Back on Serenity, Book, Simon and Jayne are gambling their time |
||
Simon and the others are gambling for ship's chores |
which Shepherd Book wins (meaning he loses) big time |
|
The other loss on board the ship is that of a number of canned goods who lose their labels from a strangely-motivated River |
||
River disposes |
until her activity is discovered |
|
and Jayne makes the most of the canned food diversion to cheat |
