Die "Browncoats" genannten Kämpfer des Widerstands hatten das Tal wochenlang gegen die Allianz gehalten, bevor ihnen schließlich befohlen wurde, die Waffen niederzulegen. Eine Unterstützung der Belagerten schien der militärischen Führung zu heikel, doch manche Browncoats glauben bis heute, dass sie damals schändlich verraten wurden ... Während Captain Malcolm Reynolds einen Routinejob auf dem Planeten Persephone erledigen will, wird er von einem verbitterten Haufen Browncoat-Veteranen entführt. Sie verdächtigen Reynolds, sie während des Krieges an den Feind verkauft zu haben. Während der Rest der Serenity-Crew alles daran setzt, ihren verschollenen Captain zu finden, muss Mal vor einem Tribunal um sein Leben kämpfen. Die Beweislast ist erdrückend, dass die Browncoats vor all den Jahren tatsächlich an die Allianz verraten wurden.
