The most interesting part of this episode to me was actually very near the end when Mal finds Saffron or whatever her actual name is and pins her down to find out some answers. One of the answers she gives is that we all play each other we just play different parts. (Or something along those lines) This intrigued me. Do we really all play a role to get what we want out of each other? Is anyone actually genuine and honest? Who can we trust? The entire beginning of the episode everyone thought she was a harmless country girl, obsessed with Mal, and looking to please all the men. None could have foreseen the snake she really was and in a way that may be how a lot of people today live their lives. Do I believe we all wear a mask at times to keep people from knowing what is really going on inside, definitely, do I think we should play people with our looks or wit to get what we want, definitely not. The sad thing is that it is done in our society everyday and that you have to use your own judge of character to figure out who is being real with you and who isn’t. Sadly in some aspects we have become just like the girl in this show. Using whatever we can to get ahead. Sometimes I feel that society has taught us to be too ambitious to care only about ourselves and getting ahead and in doing so we forget that we might hurt people along the way.
