The Train Job

(Recorded on June 16th, 2024) Up this week is episode two, technically episode one, but really episode two of Firefly, “The Train Job.” No, they didn’t get new jobs as train conductors—we’re talking a heist. A heist gone wrong, but still a heist. The Serenity crew do a job for Adelai Niska, 26th century Russian crime boss (still? how?). They don’t ask questions, which maybe they should have? Because then they wouldn’t have stolen vital medication for an entire population. While Zoe and Mal are being detained by the town’s sheriff, Mal sees the havoc he’s wreaked on this dusty and ailing town and starts to feel guilty. Inara uses her status as a Companion to bail out Mal and Zoe and bring them back to the ship. Mal has a change of heart about his criminal activities and returns the medicine they stole but not before Niska’s gaggle of goons tries to stop him. Our anti-hero overcomes and the town no longer has to worry about their bones and muscles turning into soup.
Also, George and Meaghan can’t stop talking about OJ; Meaghan has some thoughts on the theme song; and George shares his feelings on the youth of today. (Original network air date September 20th, 2002)
