I believe that since Mal and Zoe have been together, they both think very similarly. They both have captain/leadership qualities in them and they’re always one step ahead of the game. Is it possible for people to think that much alike though? Or maybe Wash is right. Maybe Zoe isn’t capable of having an opinion besides Mal when he’s in the picture.
Also in the episode, Wash decides to go do some business with Mal instead of Zoe. I guess you could say he was second-in-command for the day. He does this because of his jealousy. Well, business goes wrong and Niska, an evil man in business, kidnaps them for torture. While they are busy getting tortured, Zoe and the rest of the crew realize something went wrong. Zoe collects all the money they have. She goes to Niska to trade the money for her men. Niska allows her to take one. It was surprising to see that she took Wash. I know it is her husband but she is so loyal to Mal. Maybe she realized that Mal was strong enough to last while she could figure out how to save him. Maybe she was just committed to her relationship with Wash. Either way, I think she made a good choice.
The crew all works together to get Mal back. They end up breaking in Niska’s ship and they shoot all of his men. Well, Simon couldn't aim and Kaylee was too afraid, but Book and River sure did good with shooting. With that said, I think Jayne is growing to care for his crew. He kept telling Zoe the plan to just go in and attack was suicide but didn’t hesitate to go with his crew and get their captain back.
Also, did anyone else catch Kaylee's reaction in the end when she saw River? She seemed a bit freaked out because earlier in the episode River was able to shoot the enemies with her eyes closed. I'd probably feel the same way.
