When you see this on your flist, quote Firefly.

BOOK
What are we up to, sweetheart?
RIVER
Fixing your Bible.
BOOK
I--uh-- What?
He starts moving over to her.
RIVER
Bible's broken. Contradictions,
faulty logistics--it doesn't make
sense...
Now Book sees what she's doing. His Bible's all fucked up, and there's a small stack of torn out pages next to it...

JAYNE
If wishes were horses, we'd all be eatin' steak.

Book is making up a room for Saffron, making the bed. He finishes smoothing it out, admires his work. We hold a still, wide frame as River enters and pulls the bed apart quickly and calmly and exits again, taking the pillow. Book sighs, starts out after River.

Simon is coming the other way, interrupts River. She takes him by the hand, turns back to Book.

SIMON
What's going on?

BOOK
Seems River doesn't want me making up
a bed for our young guest. Or she's
starting a pillow collection. I'm
still collating data.

SIMON
I'm sorry. I'll take care of the
room -

RIVER
It's not important!
(to Simon)
Tell him.

SIMON
Tell him what?

RIVER
(to Book)
We want you to marry us.

SIMON
What? We - no! What?

RIVER
Two by two. Everyone has a mate, a
match, a dopple. I love you.

SIMON
No, River, mei-mei. of course I love
you too, but we can't be married.
(to Book, mortified)
She's... really crazy.

River kicks him in the shin.


SIMON(cont'd)
OW! I don't mean crazy - that's just
not something brothers and sisters
do. I mean on some planets, but only
pretty bad ones.

RIVER
The captain took a wife...

BOOK
Well, that's also complicated.

SIMON
I don't know where this is coming
from...

RIVER
We'll take care of each other. I'll
knit. You don't love me.
