Alan Tudyk: Hoban 'Wash' Washburne

Quotes 

• Kaylee Frye : [pointing to a pink frilly dress]  Say, look at the fluffy one!

  Zoë Washburne : Too much foofaraw. If I'm going to wear a dress, I'd want something with some slink.

  Hoban 'Wash' Washburne : You want a slinky dress? I can buy you a slinky dress. Captain, can I have money for a slinky dress?

  Jayne Cobb : I'll chip in.

  Zoë Washburne : [to Jayne]  I can hurt you.

• Wash : You are acting captain. Know what happens you fall asleep now?

  Zoë : Jayne slits my throat and takes over.

  Wash : That's right.

  Zoë : And we can't stop it.

  Wash : Well, I wash my hands of it. It's a hopeless case. I'll read a nice poem at the funeral, something with imagery.

  Zoë : You could lock the door and keep the power-hungry maniac at bay.

  Wash : I don't know. I'm starting to like this poetry idea now. "Here lies my beloved Zoë, my autumn flower, somewhat less attractive now that she's all corpsified and gross."

• Jayne : What we need's a diversion. I say Zoë gets nekked.

  Wash : Nope.

  Jayne : I could get nekked.

  Wash , Dr. Simon Tam : No!

• Wash : Seem to you we cleared out of Santho in a hurry?

  Zoë : Seems to me we do that a lot. Heard tell, though, we're gonna stay a while on Persephone.

  Wash : Shiny.

  Zoë : Yeah? Thought you get land crazy that long in port.

  Wash : Probably, but I've been sane a long while now, and change is good.

• Mal : Resupply, look for work, move along. We sniff the air. We don't kiss the dirt.

  Zoë : Wasn't planning on the dirt kissin', sir.

  Wash : I wouldn't stand for it anyway, Captain, jealous man like me.

• Hoban 'Wash' Washburne : [off an alarm sounding from the console]  Closing in.

  Zoë Washburne : Planet's comin' up a mite fast.

  Hoban 'Wash' Washburne : Ah, that's just 'cause I'm goin' down too quick. Likely crash and kill us all.

  Mal : Well, that happens, let me know.

• Kaylee : Look at the pretties!

  Wash : What am I looking at, the girls or the clothes?

  Jayne : There's girls?

  Zoë : The clothes please.

• Wash : I like our party better. The dress code's easier and I know all the steps.

• Jayne : We was just about to spring into action, Captain. Complicated escape and rescue op.

  Wash : I was gonna watch. It was very exciting.
