This little problem has bothered me for a while now. We know the crew took care of Mr Universe but what do you think happened to his LoveBot?

She wasn't pictured on the 'tombstone' so being buried with hubby seems unlikely and I doubt there is a second hand market (soiled goods y'know).

Do you think Jayne maybe stashed her away in his bunk or something?

You must have some alternate history version of Serenity, because she most definitely is pictured in the hologram atop Mr. Universe's tombstone.

Still, I wonder what they did with it(her?). Why would they inter a perfectly good lovebot, and there is still the question of whether or not those are tombs or just placed in memory of the person. After all, there is no mention of the crew bringing along Book's body when they leave, only the one's that they used for the ship(unless you count the outtakes!).

I think that Kaylee could fix her up and find her a home. Maybe they could sell her to Ath, since he wants to "own" his women.

So who is he?
He's my husband.
Well who in the damn galaxy ain't!

Speaking of Mrs. Universe questions, did any one notice that whoever actually portrays "Mrs. Universe" is uncredited while the cast list scrolls up the screen?

For the love of Grade A Foodstuffs, can we please find out the name of the actress who gave this fine performance as a futuristic love-bot.

You think you know--what's to come, what you are. You haven't even begun.


I believe her name is Nectar Rose; she's mentioned in the comentary. Are you sure she isn't credited? I'm pretty sure she is listed under "Lenore" but I'd have to check the credits.

She is credited. Mr. Universe identified her as Lenore in their first scene, and the actress' name is Nectar Rose. Her credit is between Fanty (Rafael Feldman) and The Teacher (Tamara Taylor).

Nectar Rose is credited as Lenore. I was watching the credits last night for the first time, to get the name of the hologram-woman-doctor.

Also the first time I noticed the Firefly theme being played at the end. Not the well-known version though, a slightly sad, melancholy guitar-version.

She is credited and she was at the S3 convention in London earlier this year. Very nice lady too.

I'd be very surprised if Kaylee didn't take Lenore back to Serenity with her. Not only would she want to see how the lovebot worked, but Kaylee probably couldn't bear even to leave a artificial being behind all by itself. Heck, given her relationship with Serenity it's a real possibility.

Actually I can just picture her reprogramming Lenore and keeping her so she had a friend to talk to in the engine room when everyone else was busy. I bet River would like Lenore too, and the rest of the crew would be very freaked out by her. Except Jayne, who would keep trying to "borrow" her.

I could see Joss using Mrs. Universe - reinvented - in other episodes - had the series continued. For the Buffy buffs - there were a couple of robots and Willow fixed them up - one was the Buffybot who filled in while Buffy was dead. I agree that Kaylee would very likely have wanted to "take her in" and "fix her up."

I haven't gotten into the stories people are writing here yet. Did anyone incorporate her into any of their stories?

Well..at least one fanfic I have read either here or on FanFiction.net has Lenore actually off the Operative in revenge for killing Mr. Universe. Seems android technology has evolved enough that Lenore managed to get past her orignal programming to be a sexual companion to our favourite geek.

Plus there was the fanfic I started to read where the Buffybot was brought in as a predacessor to Lenore and ended up training River in how to be a slayer..though don't ask me about that logic;)

Okay, I love Buffy and I love Firefly... so why does the mere thought of River the Vampire Slayer make me cringe?

Wouldn't Kaylee be too busy studying Simon to see what HE can do ?
