On page 1, Jayne says, "No, this wasn't my 該死 plan." 該死 is
pronounced Gāisi and means "damn it" in Chinese.
On page 7, the head monk reveals that there have been rumors of
portals leading to Earth-That-Was. Presumably, this means that
these rumors are floating around 'Versewide these days. The
Serenity crew first learned of the portals in
"Return to
Earth-That-Was" Part 4.
On page 10, Kaylee tells the head monk
that she and her crew had promised the people on Earth-That-Was
they they'd leave the world alone and destroy the portals
leading to it. This was in
"Return to
Earth-That-Was" Part 12.
On page 17, Jayne tells Owen, "I've been through a lot of 廢話 in
my life, and I ain't died yet." 廢話 is pronounced fèihuà
and is Chinese for, essentially, "bullshit".
