Underneath people’s exteriors, there’s often a second side of them that comes through. Inara is a companion on the shuttle and she seems like someone who can’t do anything. But, when she goes and rescues Zoe and Mal from the sheriff, she shows a different side. She shows her status and her usefulness. When Zoe and Mal are caught and with the sheriff, you don’t think he’ll let them go, but on the contrary, he does. The sheriff and Inara do things that you wouldn’t expect their character to do. Why are people so dynamic? When do people show their second side? Is it wrong to stay the same or wrong to change? Characters and people are filled with different roles and facts that make them who they are. Everyone has a different background and experience that makes them special. The sheriff let Mal and Zoe go because maybe he once was on their side, or maybe he has a close relative that has had to deal with Niska. We don’t think there’s anything special about Inara, but she has to surprise a lot of people before and is use to is, and maybe this is really her. The sheriff and Inara show their second side when they’re under pressure in a delicate situation. Mal and Zoe’s lives were in their hands, and this is when they had to make an important decision. Sometimes important, character defining moments are made only when we have to, when someone’s life depends on it, but is that okay? Shouldn’t we always try to be like that?
