Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. We start with a flashback, a look into Simon and River's lives before the academy. How long ago was this?

Answer: 11 years ago

We are told that River is 18 in the movie. This would make her about 7 in this scene. And already she shows how brilliant she is.
2. Meanwhile, in the here and now, River is having a bad day. She gets rather "morbid and creepifying". According to River, how long does it take the human body to be drained of blood, given adequate vacuuming systems?

Answer: 8.6 seconds

River: "The human body can be drained of blood in 8.6 seconds given adequate vacuuming systems."
Mal: "See, morbid and creepifying, I got no problem with. Long as she does it quite-like."
3. Zoe says that if they smuggle stock again, it should be something smaller than cattle. What does Wash suggest that they smuggle?

Answer: black market Beagles

This comment spawned the creation and name of a group that makes "Firefly" merchandise. Browncoats can hang onto those little details.
4. Simon is always very worried about the Alliance. He doesn't want to stray too far should they show up. Mal reassures him, telling him that the closest Alliance cruiser is hours out, and they wouldn't visit the backwater they're on. What is the name of that cruiser?

Answer: Magellan

This is not useless information. Later in the episode, Book gets shot, and their only chance of saving him is to take him to this cruiser. This is where we learn there's a lot more to Book than we know. He pulls out an ident card that gets him first class treatment.
5. Wherever there's illegal dealings you'll find haggling. This is clearly standard business procedure. The men buying the cattle agreed on 30-a-head with Badger. Mal predicts the price that they'll actually settle on. What is it?

Answer: 25-a-head

Haggling over price is like a dance to men like this. River happens to be dancing herself at the same time. Summer Glau (River) was a prima ballerina before she became an actress. Her first roll was as a ballerina in Joss Whedon's second show, "Angel".
6. Another flashback, this time not as far back. Simon is trying to explain to his parents that something is wrong with River. She wrote about a ball that they never went to. Whose ball was it?

Answer: Darbanvilles'

The Friedlichs were actually brought up in the next flashback. Their parents were having dinner with them when Simon was arrested.
7. Book's hurt pretty bad, and this time they can't turn to Simon for help. Mal and Wash are going through their options. Where does Wash suggest that they go that Mal shoots down because it's more than 10 hours away?

Answer: Greenleaf

Jiangyin was the planet that they were on when Book got shot. The other two are actual planets in the 'Verse. Most of the known planets and moons in the 'Verse can be found in the "Serenity" roleplaying book.
8. Zoe hands the Alliance officer the ship's papers. They're clearly fake, because the papers list the ship's captain as who?

Answer: Harbatkin

The other names can be found in the official replica of the ship's papers. Strangely enough, Harbatkin is not the name listed in the replica. Perhaps those papers are an updated version?
9. River disappeared for a short time and came back with a skirt full of hodgeberries. Simon reminisces about finding hodgeberry bushes that they thought had grown wild. On whose estate were those bushes?

Answer: Cambersons'

Simon: "These are better than the Cambersons' berries."
River: "They are... except they're poison."

:D
10. Last flashback. Simon was doing his best to help River, but he ended up getting arrested. His very unhappy father comes to bail him out. How much did that cost?

Answer: 2000 credits

Simon learns that his father is only there for his family if things are going his way. The father he thought he had isn't there at all. Instead, he finds that in Mal when he comes back to rescue the two Tams when he had no reason other than they were on his crew. Serenity is where he found a true family.
