Mal is sent by the Alliance to be the sheriff of the Georgia
Space Sector, including its planets and moons, such as the
Aphrodite moons Sturges and Hill.
Aphrodite was previously seen in
"The Outlaw Ma
Reynolds". Sturges was previously mentioned in
Big Damn Hero. (That
the Georgia Space Sector specifically is his beat is
revealed in the "Previously" paragraphs of
"Duty Calls".)
Magdelia Johnson mentions the Bluemart. This presumably
refers to a store run by Blue Sun Corporation in the 'Verse.
There are several businesses across our own world going by
this name as well.
Mal now has a sheriff's wagon in which to jet around the
Georgia Space Sector.
The judge Mal talks to on pages 8-9 is presumably the same
unnamed judge who "sentenced" Mal to become sheriff at the
end of "The Outlaw Ma
Reynolds".
Mal and Boss Moon meet up with half of his old Serenity
crew on the planet Boros. This world was
previously mentioned in
"The Outlaw Ma Reynolds" as the home of Boss Moon's
mother.
Mal meets up with Inara for a society function on New Magistrar. This
Alliance world was first mentioned in
"Changing the Game". It
appears that Inara has made her home here for the time
being.
At the party on New Magistrar, Mal meets Representative
Avila from Hera. Hera is the planet on which the Battle of
Serenity Valley took place during the Unification War.
Avila refers to Mal as hijo. This is Spanish for
"son".
Shalla Carpenter tells Mal she works for Outer Holdings,
a Blue Sun subsidiary.
