Trivia
Shepherd Book doesn't appear in this episode (the explanation given is that he is meditating at an abbey), making it the only episode in the series not to feature all nine protagonists.

Goofs
When Jayne is taken into custody by the Alliance officer, the officer says that Jayne is "under arrest". However, the phrase used every other time a character is taken into custody is "bound by law".

He was telling Jayne why he wasn't going to get paid because he was arrested. Jayne wasn't formally bound by law because Agent McGinnis was planning to keep the reward money for himself and he wanted no record of Jayne on the books.

Quotes
Wash: So... two days in a hospital. That's awful. Don't you just hate doctors?
Simon: Hey.
Wash: I mean, present company excluded.
Jayne: Let's not be excluding people. That'd be rude.

8/10

Decent episode quality 7.5/10

The ending scene is worth the watch, but the episode is barely entertaining, just a nice little episode to watch a sunday afternoon. Nothing special really happen , acting is decent i guess, you will not be bored of course because the show is not taking any risk. But you will not be amaze neither.

Decent episode 7.5/10.
