I checked it last night, he definitely didn’t go back in yet. He got his beating at 1:54. The remaining 6 minutes was the bad guys killing the drillmaster, and then the girl killing the bad guy. ---

> [@Asimovian](#): > > …she had an incredibly steady hand, didn’t flinch at all, and the fact that she _whirled_ and fired without hesitation made her look awfully damn skilled. Maybe she’s actually River Tam. Badger kidnapped her to get back at Mal and handed her up the chain of command. That’d actually be pretty damn interesting to watch; Jack Bauer vs River Tam. And in case you haven;t seen it, I have a 24-related [Pit thread](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=357748) at the moment. ---

The remaining 6 minutes was the bad guys killing the drillmaster, and then the girl killing the bad guy. Ok, fair enough. Since you have the episode- Did it look like he had anywhere near $500 on him in his wallet? ---

Yay for me buying the Firefly DVDs, I understand this now (though I’m only halfway and I’m not sure why River would be a match for Jack as she’s still kind of crazy). ---

It would be really interesting but in the end Jack would win. And then he’d torture river while yelling “WHAT DID THEY DO TO YOUR BRAIN? TELL ME, OR MILLIONS WILL DIE!” ---

And you have to call me “sir” from now on! And for the record, I will be calling you “Whiny Little Twerp”. Or maybe “Scooter”… ---
