The setting of "Safe" is a random, barely colonized planet in the 'verse, which doesn't do the episode any favors in terms of being interesting. The backwoods mindset of Outer Planet hicks is expounded upon, as are River's powers, but the predictable "which member of my crew do I save" plot isn't up to the series' powerful standard.

Best Moment: It's a tie between River's dance sequence and the unrealized hints that Shepard Book might be way more than he appears to be.
