Okay, y'all. This is one of my favourite episodes ever, because of reasons. So I've been excited for, like, EVER about recapping this one. Let's get to it. A middle-aged professor type heads up the steps of a college building after dark, then stops when he sees a pretty young thing (who looks weirdly like a brunette Reese Witherspoon) in a sundress fixing her shoe. I'm going to go ahead and award him a "THAT'S WHAT HAPPENS" because he's in an overcoat and scarf, and doesn't think her lack of coat is at all suspect. Anyway, Brunette Witherspoon flirts a little as she says that she's in one of his classes and he invites her up to his office. There's some more flirting, a little making out, and then her face turns all grey and rotten. "What's the matter? Don't you like me any more?" she says sadly. Downstairs, a janitor locks the front of the building and heads down the stairs. There's a crunch behind him and he turns to see Creeper Professor, face first in the concrete.
Kaylee is doubting Simon's claim that he swears. She cutely asks if he does all this cussing when she goes to bed, and he retorts that he swears when it's appropriate. Kaylee thinks the point of swearing is that it's never appropriate. I get what she means, and I may have agreed with her more BEFORE I read the Fifty Shades series and was educated in the ways of the world: sometimes there ain't nothing more appropriate than a big, fat FUCK YOU.
nyhow, Kaylee and Simon pause their chatter when they spot Inara. Kaylee greets her and asks if she's off for a romantic night, and Inara says she hopes so. She tells them not to let Mal get them in trouble and that she'll see them soon.
