:42:02
Things are going to get
much, much worse.
:42:56
Thanks for taking us in again,
Shepherd.
:42:59
You got a plan?
:43:01
Hiding ain't a plan?
:43:03
It'll do you for a spell.
:43:04
And the folks
here'll be glad
of the extra coin.
:43:06
But the Alliance
will be coming.
:43:08
They're after this girl
with a powerful will.
:43:12
I look to hear the tromp
of their boots any moment.
:43:17
You won't.
:43:20
This isn't
a palms-up military run, Mal.
:43:24
No reports broadwaved...
:43:27
no warrants.
:43:28
Much as they want her,
they want her hid.
:43:31
That means closed file.
:43:34
Means an operative.
:43:36
Which is trouble
you've not known.
:43:41
I could have left her there.
:43:45
I had an out.
:43:47
Hell, I had every reason
in the 'verse...
:43:49
to leave her lay
and haul anchor.
:43:52
It's not your way, Mal.
:43:55
I have a way?
:43:57
That better than a plan?
:43:59
Only one thing is gonna
walk you through this, Mal.
