 While the central characters in the series are the humans, it's the acting of these two actors who really make the series work.

 This episode has one of my least liked ploys in a science fiction series.  A dream that Means Something.  Don't science fiction characters ever have normal dreams that don't Mean Something?  And it's always a Cryptic Dream that Means Something.  The nice thing about reading the script books is that he finally tells us what the dream actually Means.
-That said, JMS also tells us about Mira Furlan's history in the former Yugoslavia, living during the civil war.  It's really an interesting story and brings further depth to the actress and the character.

		+	This set of episodes was where I truly got involved in the storyline of B5. The first season was ok, but they were all mainly stand-alone episodes that were establishing the universe. At that point it was hinting at a bigger story, but it was very subtly in the background. It was hard to tell this series from any other Sci Fi series with a reset button at the end fo the episode. However, once season 2 started, we started seeing the background story coming more forcefully into the foreground. That was when I got hooked.
		+
		+	As for the script book, the binding on this one has come unglued :( A little disappointed with the quality of this book.

		+	This episode has some very good acting in it.

		+
		+	This episode is one of those pivotal episodes in G'Kar's storyline that make you realize you're not watching a normal show. Up to this point, G'Kar has been primarily portrayed as the "bad guy", although in such a way as to hint that "No-one here is exactly what they appear". This episode, more than any of the others to me, really showed that JMS had pulled a bait-and-switch with the audience. G'Kar may not be the "bad guy" after all and Mollari was not just the "comic relief". We had seen this in the episodes leading up to here, but this one basically finalizes the deal.
