Ununnilium: I think it's pretty obvious in the first season that Mickey Can Do It. I mean, he launches a nuclear missile at one point!
Paul A: Only because the Doctor's there giving him step-by-step instructions. And it's followed almost immediately by the scene where the Doctor offers him a berth in the TARDIS crew and Mickey says "I can't, I'm The Guy Who Doesn't Have What It Takes." (Which I actually liked, by the way. Only time in the series history there's been a regular character I could identify with. That's one of the reasons I was annoyed when he turned out to be an elite hacker with a zeppelin pilot's license.)
Micah: Removed natter from the Firefly example:
- The above editor has apparently never seen the episode "War Stories".
- Exception of the rule?
- The above editor has apparently never seen the episode "War Stories".
Johnny E: Removed, because it doesn't fit particularly well and would go better in Sweet Polly Oliver.
