A scene from Serenity 2005
Mal

[On Haven, Mal finds Shepherd Book, mortally wounded in an Alliance attack]

It shouldn't have been you. The Alliance should've hit us, it should've been me.

Book

That crossed my mind. [coughs] I shot him down. [looks at the wreck of an Alliance ship]

Mal

Yeah, I see.

Book

I killed the ship that killed us. Not very Christian of me.

Mal

You did what's right.

Book

Coming from you, that means... almost nothing. [Mal smiles] I'm long gone.

Mal

No, Doc'll bring you around. I look to be bored by many more sermons before you slip. Just don't move.

Book

Can't order me around, boy. I'm not one of your crew.

Mal

[voice breaking]

Yes, you are.
