Perfectly understandable on the Farscape front. I know people who just can't get into it because it is too sci-fi. If you can though it is an amazing show. Leverage sometimes reminds me a bit of Firefly, what with the crime team main cast and some of the great character interaction being the highlight of the show.
I had not, however, ever picked up on Inara not being afraid to die, nor having a suicide kit, nor even potentially be already dying. That is all new to me and I would be interest in hearing how these theories came about and the examples in the show.
Well earlier in that episode she pulled out her suicide kit. A needle and some liquid that could be used to end it quickly if they were going to freeze/suffocate (I believe she gave it to Simon). Otherwise it is a lot of little things, the biggest of which is in Ariel when she comes back from her exam. When asked how it went she states it was "the same as last time" not good, or fine, but the same as last time (also the way she delivered the line). And if there is something wrong with her that means it is something that isn't going away and she has had for awhile, also it can't be something that would endanger her clients.
There are a suprising number of things like that for Firefly fans to discuss. Book was the big topic of course (before the comic), and River before the movie. Also what happened to Mal's home planet and why he doesn't like to talk about his past so much. I am also of a group that believes the Tam parents knew (or at least had a vague idea) what The Academy really was when they sent River there. No way two parents that smart could be that stupid when it came to Rivers letters and obviously worsening condition, and they were just so strongly against Simon doing anything to find out the truth.
