Season 1, Episode 3 (Brown Pants)
In this week's episode, Aaron leaves the ship with Ida Jr. to take care of some business in the Pussy Palace, after hearing that some bounty hunters had ransacked the place looking for him.

Meanwhile, Ida and Telumus begin their travels to bring John's ship back to its rightful owner, Risk, and to explain why they weren't able to provide the full amount of Yu Yan's debt.

Things take a turn for the worse however, when they realise that the ship hasn't been pumping oxygen into the cabins - discovering that the Oxygen Stabilizer must have been damaged at some point during their time on Triumph!

Realising that their options are limited, the pair decide to touch down on the planet Ithaca; a planet still reeling from the effects of the Unification War.

It's not long before the duo get into a heap o' trouble, being captured by Capt. Ray Holliday, the leader of a Browncoat Terrorist Cell.

The Captain warns Ida of the horrors that he has witnessed at the hands of 'The Black Ghost'. A juggernaut sized killing machine that he claims is Telumus!

After searching a junkyard for a new Stabilizer, the crew learn that the nearby alliance camp is holding all the good spare parts, and on the journey to the camp, they soon hear the sounds of battle in the streets.

Telumus takes advantage of the Alliance's reliance on him during the war, and the pair travel to the warzone with alliance officers in an APC.

Capt. Holliday, seeing the Crew with the alliance, mistakes them for becoming his enemies, and after losing the battle and being arrested, swears to get his revenge.

More chaos ensues, and eventually everyone finds themselves battling the alliance at the camp, after some impressive knife throwing, and tactical rifle shooting, the crew, with new Stabilizer in hand, make their way back to the ship. Killing Capt. Holliday in the process.

BUT WAIT! it's not over for our Crew yet!

Capt. Holliday is alive! And pissed! Using his signature Minigun, the Capt turns the ship's engine into Swiss cheese!

The crew try desperately to repair the ship and to prevent what seems like an inevitable crash landing onto the planet surface, and to make matters even more hellish, Ida's good friend Rufus has been kidnapped by an angry Risk, who has a mystery man torturing him till he gets his cash and ship!

is it all over for our beloved crew? Find out on next week's episode of Firefly!
