Firefly Episode 7

Today I watched the seventh episode of Firefly.  In this episode a lot of insight is given into the character Jayne.  The crew lands on a tiny moon planet where they have business to attend.  Jayne gives a little foreshadowing by saying that he isn't very liked on the planet and has had bad dealings with people on the planet in the past.  Upon arriving, however, things couldn't be more different.  He is a hero because the money he stole from the planet fell out of his ship as he was trying to escape and fell down to the poor.  A modern day "Robin Hood" if you will.  Many other story lines follow this main plot line.  The mechanic and Simon, the doctor, further their relationship by discovering that they are attracted to one another.  We also get a first glimpse of the dealings of a companion (prostitute.)  A companion is not made out to be nearly as bad as we would think of it as today.  It has a sensual side, however still not very morally correct by our standards.  Another little story line is River, the genius sister of the doctor, going through the bible of the shepherd's and picking out everything that is wrong with the bible.  She picks out many things that are known to be incorrect and can't physically be possible to have happened.  All in all it wasn't my favorite episode of "Firefly" but was good nonetheless.  I plan on watching episode 8 for tomorrow's assignment.
