From Jaynestown:
"This must be what it feels like to go mad...."
After hearing the Ballad of Jayne.
"No, this must be what it feels like to go mad...."

 

[John Crichton]

I liked the word 'goram' or however it is spelled. Just flowed well.

In addition to many snipits from above I loved these.

Wash's line in The Message - "Oh my GOD, it's grotesque! Oh, and there's something in a jar..."

Kaylee, in Heart of Gold - "Look, boy-whores. Isn't that thoughtful?"

Jayne, in Heart of Gold - "Mal! It looks like we got some imminent violence!"

Mal, Zoe & Jayne in War Stories -

Mal: I know it's a difficult mission, but you and I - have to get it on.
Zoe: I understand, we have no choice. Take me, sir. Take me hard.
Jayne: Now something about that is just downright unsettlin'.

 

[Kobold Avenger]

It's been a while since I saw either episode, but mine are.

Wash, in war stories: It's not a two man assault, technically it's a one man, one woman assault, the unisex.

Mal, in shindig: Mercy is the mark of a great man.... (poke) I guess that just makes me a good man.

 

[Psychotic Dreamer]

From Jaynestown:
"This must be what it feels like to go mad...."
After hearing the Ballad of Jayne.
"No, this must be what it feels like to go mad...."

I would have to second these two. Absolutly wonderful and pretty much summed up my thoughts on each instance too. Sometimes the doc just gets it right.

 

[Shadowdancer]

Jayne, in "Objects in Space": "Yeah, and if wishes was horses, we'd all be eatin' steak."

Jubal, the bounty hunter in "Objects in Space": "Does that seem right to you?"

 

[DanMcS]

Jayne: "Now, listen, you can't get out of this, by going all bendy. The lights, from the console, they look like angels... dancing." THUMP.

Wash: "Did he just go crazy and fall asleep?"

Ah, hell, every episode is full of them, I can't pick a favorite.

"Who's flying this thing? Oh, right, that would be me."

"Problem?"
"No, the planet is just getting really big on account of us dropping too fast."

"Any gentleman here would be happy to loan you a sword."
"Loan me a swhat?"

"You got a wife? All I got was that dumbass stick sounds like it's raining, how come you got a wife?"

 

[Datt]

Okay I have a few:

Jayne: [into radio] Testing. Captain, can you hear me?
Mal: I'm standing right here.
Jayne: [into radio] You're coming in good and loud, too.
Mal: 'Cause I'm standing right here.

Zoë: Sir, I think you have a problem with your brain being missing.

[playing with dinosaur toys]
Wash: 'Yes... this is a fertile land, and we will thrive. We will rule over all this land, and we will call it... this land.' 'I think we should call it your grave.' 'Ah. Curse your sudden but inevitable betrayal.' 'Hahaha. Mine is an evil laugh.'

Book: If you take sexual advantage of her, you're going to burn in a very special level of Hell, a level they reserve for child molesters and people who talk at the theater.

Zoë: Where's River now?
Mal: In her room, which I'm thinking we bolt from the outside from now on.
Wash: That's a little extreme, isn't it?
Jayne: Anyone remember her comin' at me with a butcher's knife?
Wash: [smiling] Wacky fun.

I will quit now so other people can have things to post.

Tee hee. And the followup later in that episode, when the captain confesses to kissing her, and Book replies, "Well. Isn't that... special."
