You said it, not me.

What did you say?

Hey, guys? I'm not some scared little kid, who pisses his pants because the big, bad Vigils called him to an inquisition.

Confusion Over Reavers and Morality
Jayne Cobb
I just don't get it. How's a man get so wrong? Cuttin on his own face, rapin and murdering — Hell, I'll kill a man in a fair fight... or if I think he's gonna start a fair fight. Or if he bothers me. Or if there's a woman. Or if I'm gettin paid. Mostly only when I'm gettin paid. But these Reavers... last ten years they show up like the bogeyman from stories. Eating people alive? Where's that get fun?

Strategies for Navigating School Conflict
Carter
You're the brain, Arch. You got us into this mess. Where do we go from here?
Archie
Everybody's panicking for nothing. First of all, you can't go around the school beating up half the kids! The Brothers would shut us down in a minute. That's why I stay away from the strong-arm stuff. Although I will admit, you did a beautiful job on Bollo back there. And it was coming to him! But Bollo's a troublemaker. And he can lie out there in his vomit till Hell freezes over. Nobody's gonna care, cause he's an exception.
[''To Carter'']
Carter
Bollo's an example. Let the word spread about Bollo, we won't have to worry about other kids screwing with us.
[To the other Vigils]
Archie
But that doesn't sell chocolates. You say The Vigils are linked with the sale? Well, then, let's get the goddamn sale over with! Let's sell the chocolates! Because if Renault is becoming some kind of rebel hero because he's not selling, how the hell is he gonna look when everybody is selling- except him?
[Gets up and paces for a moment, then turns to Bill.]
Carter
How are you gonna get everybody to start selling them?
Archie
Simple. Like all great plans, it has the beauty of simplicity. We make selling chocolates popular. We make it cool to sell the things. We spread the word, we organize! We get the class officers, we get the homeroom officers, we get all the kids with influence. Do or die for Trinity- everybody sells!
Obie
Not everybody is gonna wanna sell fifty boxes, Archie.
Archie
Oh, but they will, Obie. No, no, no no. They will. We will make selling chocolates the thing to do! And the school will love us for it. The Vigils will be able to write their own ticket with the Brothers and Leon. Why do you think I told Leon we'd do this in the first place?
Carter
What about Renault?
Archie
Don't worry about Renault.
Carter
But I worry about him, Arch. I worry about him!
Archie
Let me put it like this. At the end of the sale, Renault will be wishing with all of his heart that he had sold the chocolates. And the school will be glad that he didn't.
