Synopsis
Synopsis
Inara Serra is hired to accompany someone to a formal dance. Badger hires the crew to meet a contact at the same dance and set up a smuggling job. Mal hits Inara's conceited date for implying that her date owns her and inadvertently accepts a duel fought with swords. Because Inara's date is a skilled swordsman, Inara attempts to teach Mal to sword fight overnight. Despite expectation, Mal ultimately wins the duel. The contact, who personally disliked Inara's date, agrees to hire the crew to smuggle cattle to the Rim.
