It was Whedon's first movement into directing a proper full-on movie and it showed in this fan favourite love letter to a show that really should have died out and got lost in the sea of unrealised dreams. Fortunately an ardent fanbase of 'Browncoats' from original show 'Firefly' kept the interest going and a theatrical film was financed. In this scene, heroic captain Mal and sinister government assassin The Operative duke it out in the middle of courtesan Inara's new home, only for the peaceful Inara to turn the tables on the Operative when she reveals a previously lit stick of incense is actually an explosive that allows her and Mal to escape. A true moment of heroism for Inara and a fantastically memorable moment in a great film.
