** The whole crew in "Trash". This one also counts as a XanatosGambit, since the crew would have gotten away with it whether [[IHaveManyNames YoSaffBridge]] had turned on Mal or not.

* [[spoiler:LoveInterestTraitor: An episode has Mal being (unintentionally) married to a young woman for a reward. But she turns out to be a con artist, intent on killing the crew (by leaving them to die) and selling their ship. Her appearance in a later episode reveals this to be her standard operating procedure: seduce, steal, leave 'em for dead, repeat...]]

* SpiritualSuccessor: Whedon's script for ''Film/AlienResurrection'' involved an amoral crew of mercenaries and a partially insane woman, subject of mysterious scientific experiments as part of a government weapons project, with preternatural abilities. Sound familiar?

* TheFirstSuperheroes: River Tam is most likely the first really powerful psychic in the Verse, since she's a unique prototype SuperSoldier who escaped from a top secret lab. Too bad that the technology for training PsychicPowers is still very crude and involves brain surgery and other cruel and invasive experimentation resulting in madness.

Added DiffLines:

*** Simon later gets to play it straight with Jayne when the latter is temporarily paralyzed to prevent him aggravating a bad bruise to his spine. Simon points out the many ways it would be comically easy for him, as the ship's doctor, to kill Jayne and get away with it, only to end with saying that he simply doesn't want to do that and hopes Jayne will just leave him alone. Jayne listens to all of this in comically appalled horror.
