in this week's episode, jayne, river, and the rest of the crew find spooky cannibal madmen called reavers on an abandoned space ship

[TheRandomOne]

& Rodney showed up

[ecgordon]

Why are they just numbering the episodes instead of giving them a title? Last night's should have been called "Bushwhacked."

[Perelandra]

hmm so 2 and 3? and 1 is a bit jealous. Did something really "happen" between them or are they just trying to make it look like it for other reasons?
And what is up with 2 that she healed so fast?(and didn't catch the virus?)

Nice to see David Hewlett-hoping we see more of him maybe?

I don't know if I would call them reavers....reavers can drive and manage the workings of a space craft so they do retain some higher functions of their brains....these creatures can't. And the virus induced cannibals is being used on a lot of shows, heck, 'The Walking Dead' has built an entire series around.

The show writers are definitely trying to create a 'love triangle' between the three of them that part is obvious. She seems to be going for the real bad boy.....

I wonder if the card that 5 found has something to do with it. Wasn't it something to do with sub space - I can't recall, I will have to watch again. Maybe 1 and 2 came from a different place in space or time?

I know that 3 said that 1 had his face surgically altered but there is no evidence to support that just yet, just 3 assuming that is what had to have happened since 1 found his double.

That was fun to see David again. Given the type of character and that he's been giving them jobs, I would expect to see him again! If not, I would be disappointed.

[Skydiver]

Oh look, Zombies. A few years ago it was all vampires

Interesting and creepy and yeah, why did she heal so fast? But zombies are just so over done.

[Dr Kaylee Beckett]

And what is up with 2 that she healed so fast?(and didn't catch the virus?)

Hypothesis: The virus mutated and finally do what it was supposed too in the first place, or at least partially, and granted her regeneration/healing abilities.

I hate zombies. They are too creepy.

When 3 was telling 1 that 2 came on to him I thought he might be making it up but her coming on to him at the end backed up his claim. If they are clones that might explain the fast healing. They've already lasted longer then they are supposed to so maybe they have regenerative abilities as well, or the virus works as intended on clones rather than actual humans for some reason.

Maybe there's a Stargate behind that big door.

[Annoyed]

Good episode this week. As to where they're going next, I have no idea.

Yeah that card-probably won't get to see what it does for awhile-I need to re-watch, too.
Yes, alternate universe could explain the extra 1 other than a clone or surgically altered face.

Thought he was making up, too, until the very end. I've been thinking clones, too, with the real ones behind the door?
