Visible crew/equipment: As the camera goes down through the ship to River standing on the catwalks in the cargo bay (eavesdropping on the crew as Kaylee tells them about how she killed the 3 guards on Niska's ship in War Stories), look at the kitchen table on the far right of the screen. There is a man with white hair bent over the table reading a book. He isn't part of the ship's crew, more likely part of the film crew.

Question: I've never seen the show myself, but I was wondering what kind of a name "Inara Serra" is. I'm assuming Inara is of Portuguese origin, but mostly because the actress was born in Brazil. Can someone please help me with this?

Answer: Inara is actually Arabic in origin; it means "ray of light" or alternatively "heaven sent". Serra, on the other hand, is Portuguese and means "mountain range" - derived from the same word in Latin, where it means 'saw' (as in the cutting implement, which a mountain range might resemble, rather than the act of seeing).
