Simon is cleaning the infirmary in anticipation of the coming job and the bullet wounds that would inevitably land someone in the bright little room. He tries his best not the think that next time it could be his sister lying in front of him instead of Mal or Jayne. He refuses to acknowledge that the average amount of lost blood has gone down drastically since his mei mei started going on jobs and continues to let worry niggle at him.
He is just finishing his ritualistic scrub down when he hears the big merc bellow, "Ain't no ruttin' way I'm lower on tha chain a command than any feng le little girls!"
Not a second later he sees River run past yelling over her shoulder, "Take consolation in the fact that Simon is the Omega!"
Just then Jayne comes into view, barreling after her. The big man pauses when he sees Simon standing just inside the infirmary door.
"What tha hell does that mean, Doc?"
"Well, Omega is the last letter of the Latin alphabet…" Simon begins in shock.
"Ne'er mind," Jayne waves the smaller man off before continuing in his chase, "What tha gorram hell does that mean, Crazy!?"
