Firefly Episode 10

So I have to admit that I am starting to like this series more and more.  This was probably the best episode that I have seen so far.  It starts out by seeing the crew after their previous job where Jayne betrayed them and they made a lot of money.  However, in this episode it appears as though Jayne bought a full crate of apples for the crew (a delicacy it seems) and it doesn't seem as though the crew ever even found out about Jayne stabbing them in the back, except for Mal.  Then, Wash has a bit of a breakdown because he is tired of Zoe constantly obeying Mal no matter what he tells her to do.  Wash thinks that there is maybe something going on between the captain and Zoe or that there was in the past.  In the end it turns out he was just being paranoid.  After Zoe and Wash have a shouting match, Nishka has found the Firefly and captures Mal and Wash.  Contradicting Wash's beliefs, Zoe buys Wash back from Nishka.  At this point the whole crew becomes involved and decides to take on Nishka's entire space station by themselves.  This is the really exciting part just because of the way the whole crew fights together as one.  Also, we see what the Alliance may have been doing with River, turning her into some kind of ultimate killing machine.  She takes out 3 men with 3 shots not even looking at them, it was quite impressive.  In the end, as you probably could have predicted, the crew rescues Mal and all is well back on the ship.
