Also, I'm not sure Mal is interested in redemption, whether he thinks it exists or not. I'm rewatching the series for the third time now, and sometimes I think Mal believes he's been on the right path all along, that the universe (or parts of it) has failed him, and so he's more than willing to take advantage of it. Not that he considers himself so very righteous. Just...right.
