Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. This episode starts off with a "friendly" game of pool at a bar. What does the sign above the bar say?

Answer: management not responsible for ball failure

The pool balls are holographic, and will blink out on occasion. I suspect this feature was to prevent the loss of balls, and to prevent them from being thrown in bar brawls.

2. What color dress does Inara wear to the bar?

Answer: Red

This is a two-piece outfit, very reminiscent of Indian style dresses. Inara wears a gold dress to the ball which was the costumer's personal wedding dress that she had adjusted to fit Morena (Inara) for this episode.

3. What is the local time when Serenity lands on Persephone (approximately)?

Answer: 10:00 am

Inara: "I understand if you need to go prepare for that 'it's ten in the morning' issue."
Mal: "Yeah. Better go do that. 'Cause I think this is more of, uh, an evening look."

4. Kaylee is delighted by the pretty dresses being displayed in a shop window by models. One of these girls is obviously wearing a wig. What color is it?

Answer: green

Kaylee is partial to the pink ruffled "layer-cake" dress. Joss Whedon said that it wasn't since Willow was in an Eskimo suit on "Buffy the Vampire Slayer" that he had been so excited about somebody's outfit. ["Firefly the Official Companion, Volume One"]

5. Surprisingly, Jayne recalls what Badger called Mal the last time they encountered each other. What was it?

Answer: pretentious

Again, Jayne shows that he is more intelligent than he lets on. Badger called Mal pretentious in the pilot episode "Serenity".

6. While Mal, Kaylee and Inara enjoy the ball, Simon, Jayne and Book play a game of cards. What card is "tall" during the game we see?

Answer: plum

There were strawberries and mangoes at the ball, and Kaylee was making sure to enjoy them! Jane Espenson wrote this episode and invented tall card as a descendant of poker. ["Firefly the Official Companion, Volume One"]

7. Wash says a mock eulogy for Zoe after a lovely romp in bed. What does he call her?

Answer: autumn flower

Gina Torres, who played Zoe, went on to play a villain named Jasmine in Joss Whedon's second show, "Angel".

8. Kaylee is delighted by all the women dancing in their beautiful dresses. She says they're like butterflies and what else?

Answer: pieces of wrapping paper

Kaylee's dress is also very colorful. The dress was inspired by "Gone With the Wind" and made out of an antique Indian sari by costume designer Shawna Trpcic. ["Firefly the Official Companion, Volume One"]

9. All good things must come to an end. Mal initiates a duel by punching Inara's date. Where is this duel to be held?

Answer: Kaytree Pond

It's a foggy morning on the pond. The duel has drawn a crowd.

10. River makes everyone's jaw drop when she talks to Badger in his own accent. Where does River say Badger is from?

Answer: Dyton colony

Mark Sheppard (Badger) took Summer Glau (River) to a cafe in Studio City to coach her on the accent. She was very self-deprecating, but pulled off the accent beautifully. ["Firefly the Official Companion, Volume One"]
