Hoban "Wash" Washburne quotes from Serenity (2005)

Hoban "Wash" Washburne

Let's go back to the part where Jayne gets knocked out by a ninety-pound girl, 'cause I don't think that's ever gonna get old.

Wash

Well, if she doesn't get us some extra flow from the engine room to offset the burn-through, this landing is gonna get pretty interesting.

Define "interesting"?

Wash

"Oh, God, oh, God, we're all gonna die"?

This is the captain. We have a little problem with our entry sequence, so we may experience some slight turbulence and then... explode.

Wash

Inara. Nice to see her again.

Zoë

So... trap?

Trap.

Zoë

Are we going in?

Only but a few hours out.

Wash

Yeah, but, remember the part where it's a trap?

If that’s the case, then Inara's already caught in it. She wouldn't set us up willing. Might be we got a shot at seeing who's turning these wheels. We go in.

Kaylee

But how can you be sure Inara don't just wanna see you? Sometimes people have feelings. And I'm referring here to people.

You all were watching, I take it?

Kaylee

Yes.

Did you see us fight?

Kaylee

No.

Trap.

Wash

We’re about 70 miles from the Training House, and nobody on radar. If the Alliance is about they're laying low.

They're about. Find us a home. I'll take the shuttle a little closer. Zoe, ship is yours. Remember. If anything happens to me or if you don't hear from me within the hour, you take this ship and you come and you rescue me.

What? Risk my ship?

I mean it. It's cold out there. And I don't wanna get left.

Dr. Caron

There's thirty million people here, and they just let themselves die.

Dr. Caron

I have to be quick! About a tenth of a percent of the population had the opposite reaction to the Pax. Their aggressor response increased beyond madness. They have become...

Dr. Caron

Well, they've killed most of us. And not just killed… they've done things...

Wash

Reavers... They made them.

Dr. Caron

I won't live to report this, but people have to know. We meant it for the best... to make people safer.
