This is a real wild west show with a bad guy who runs the town and a "hoar house" that's fighting to keep it's freedom. An old friend of Inara's asks for her help. Inara ask Mal and the crew go to fight for independence. At the end of this episode, Inara announces she is leaving.
Inara makes the decision to leave because she realizes she loves Mal and she loves the crew of Serenity. She has formed an attachment and that by getting so close she will not have her freedom to come and go and keep things "clean." Love, relationships, people are messy. You can hurt and fear losing the things you love and that feeling can tear you apart. Running away doesn't make it better. We were not created to be without the mess. Sorry to say, that attraction to belonging and being a part of a "family" of relationships is purely human. Inara leaves, but in the movie Serenity she finds that distance and separation cannot break the tie of feelings and love she feels. Lesson learned.
